Loops is super simple atm, and it's important we get the basics right.
That being said, our R&D "department" has successfully implemented custom AR filters in the Camera (similar to Snapchat filters), and will support user contributed AR filters.
We are a few months away from this being available to users, it will likely launch on iOS first with a limited deployment while we address performance/bugs.
The goal is to be the best fedi video camera app, with powerful editing tools!
We have also experimented with Live streaming, and other real time features!
It will be expensive to support Live Streaming, and we are exploring ways to mitigate this before the feature is shipped.
