The design studio behind Hipstamatic recently introduced DSPO, a collaborative camera app that lets multiple users create and share content from one camera. The iOS platform gives more than one user access to a particular camera and allows these users to save their captured images into a designated [iPhone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/digi-swap) or [iPod](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ipod-classic-iphone-17-case) touch album.

Appealing to a millennial demographic, this collaborative camera app will update you on fun photos taken by friends and loved ones. DSPO is not only designed for multiple users but also lets iPhone owners connect with friends via instant messaging, where they can also share their captured photography.

This camera app works on a timer that designates an hour for multiple users to snap their desired images. The mobile platform is inspired by disposable cameras and is an interactive way to communicate with photos rather than conventional text messages.
