Made by one person.

There is no studio behind masoc.

masoc is made by Joshua Hoffmann, an independent developer and photographer in Germany. He designs, builds and supports the app on his own and answers every message himself.

Before masoc he made IIWII, a film simulation camera for iPhone. masoc grew out of the wish for an editor that feels at home on iPhone, iPad and Mac, keeps photos on the device and can be bought once. During the public beta, testers shaped many of its features. What they asked for.
