Mobile Is Here To Stay

Camera filters are mini gassers for your lenses — similar to a preset or LUT for your photo, but with real glass and no fake edits. There are various kinds of filters to choose from: diffusion filters to make your pictures look more dreamy, UV filters to cut nature's elements, CPL filters to underline dynamic range, and more.

These little guys aren’t just for your big camera or DSLR — they’re available for your phone, too. Why limit the potential to a smartphone’s automatic settings when you can dive deeper? You can have it all in the palm of your hand with the same arsenal of filter adapters and snap-on filters for the iPhone Pro 16.

Below is a list of the highest-quality filters to thread onto your iPhone, Samsung, or Pixel devices. Some require an adapter, while others easily snap onto the Moment Case’s camera window.

Pro Tip: If you need additional readings on what each kind of filter is used for, be sure to check out our favorite filters to use, how to use them, why to use them, and when to use them.

Which Filter Mount Do I Need?

If you want to mount filters on your phone, we offer (2) different options for attaching a filter to your phone. The biggest difference is that a 37mm filter covers (1) lens on your phone, while a 67mm filter covers (3) plus the microphone. If you want to mount filters on your Moment Lenses, we offer a 67mm Lens Filter Mount.

    67mm Universal Phone Filter Mount

    The 67mm Universal Phone Filter Mount is the simplest way to attach any 67mm filter to almost any phone with or without a case.

1. CineClear Quick-Lock Filter

Best For: Keeping your phone's camera CLEAN and dirt-free.

This filter works just like a protector against the camera. It locks onto your Moment Case for iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max in seconds. It'll be your invisible protective shield made from premium-quality German Schott b270 Optical Glass.

CineClear won’t degrade your image quality and maintains full functionality of the iPhone camera system. This allows you to protect your expensive camera phone and makes it much easier to clean without the hassle of removing your phone from the case. This filter offers a layer of protection for the "eyes" of your phone, combatting the elements, pocket dust, fingerprints, and sharp edges.

2. CineBloom Diffusion 67mm Filter

Best For: Creators wanting a dreamy, hazy look to their image or video.

A diffusion filter is often used to create a glowy haze that spreads out the light across the etched filter surface while maintaining crisp contrast and sharpness. It’s the effect of bending a percentage of image-forming light from its original origin to defocus.

The filter’s tiny haze pattern will also help alter the bokeh to a more creamy vibe. I’m genuinely amazed at how well it captures a beautiful haze around the light to soften the details of my subject while still retaining the sharpness of the individual hairs and details of the eye in a portrait.

The 67mm CineBloom Filters work with our 67mm Filter Adapter, so you can use them with your Moment lenses. But if you have an iPhone 15 or 16 series camera phone, then try a Quick Lock filter mechanism.

3. Moment Variable ND Filters

Beat For: Filmmakers that need manual control of their shutter speed during filming.

This has quickly become the most popular product we've ever made. It's a hoot amongt mobile filmmakers who want a super simple and seamless way to capture way more cinematic videos straight from the phone. You should check out our buddy Kai's footage in the Dolomites.

They provide fast, precise control over your shots in tricky lighting without moving from behind the camera. Perfect for running and gunning, the filters also feature hard stops at both ends of the range to prevent unwanted cross-polarization for the cleanest image possible. The locking mechanism is powered by proprietary Quick-Lock technology, making it fast and secure to attach this VND to your Moment Phone Case. This means no clunky attachments, unlike how our lenses can feel, so it's super close to your phone's camera without fuss.

  • It's lightweight and made of top-of-the-line materials.
  • It allows you to control light for better photos and videos.
  • Zero cross-polarizations

4. AntiGlare CPL Filter

Best For: Removes reflections and lowers highlights, perfect for car windows or water surfaces.

CPL filters are ideal for making your nature shots pop and cutting glares through windows when shooting inside. They're a correctional lens filter, not necessarily for fun or stylized shoots (but we won't stop you).

At its core, the polarizing works through a microscopic film attached to the filter glass. This film then filters out light coming into the lens based on the direction the light travels. This is why circular polarizers are rotateable so that the light cut-out direction can be altered based on your shooting situation. These are truly a must for outdoor and travel photographers; my CPL filters never leave my big camera lenses.

5. Moment CineFlare Streak Filters

Best For: Creators wanting a fantastic streak of light flares for a spicy look to footage and photos.

Our CineFlare Filters are the secret sauce for adding anamorphic-like flares to your footage without attaching a Moment Anamorphic lens to the iPhone. These slim, close-to-your-hand filters (i.e., not super bulky like our attachable Mobile Lenses) come in blue and gold options and will produce eye-catching cinematic flares directly on your phone's image.

The 67mm filters' housing is fully rotatable, so you can adjust the flare angle however you like. We used premium Japanese optical glass to maintain a super crisp image, and you can even stack them with a CineBloom Filter for an ultra-dreamy look with added flares.
