What is a Vaporwave filter?
Vaporwave is a retro-futuristic aesthetic built on 1980s and early-90s nostalgia: soft pinks and cyans, a dreamy glow, and a slightly artificial, mall-poster feel. As a photo filter it pushes your colours toward that magenta-and-teal palette.
What makes the look
- Pink & cyan cast — reds and blues are lifted while greens are pulled back, tinting highlights pink and shadows teal.
- Lifted, dreamy tones — a soft, slightly washed feel rather than punchy contrast.
- Retro palette — the overall colour balance nods to old VHS covers and sunset gradients.
How to apply it in TOF Fun Cam
Open the camera, take or upload a photo, open the effects picker and choose Vaporwave from the Color category. Use the intensity slider to go from a subtle tint to a full retro wash, then download or share.
Tips
- Sunset light and neon signs suit the aesthetic perfectly.
- Pair it with the VHS look for extra 90s nostalgia.
