Presets ▾

Preset name Saved presets

Presets save every setting plus the photo, stored on this device.

REVEAL ▾

REVEAL — poll the API and render live API URL JSON field Poll seconds Auto-save on new word (one tap to confirm)

Turn on to poll the API and drop the “reveal” text into the render.

Reads the reveal field from {"reveal":"…","timeUpdated":…}. iOS can't save to Photos without a tap, so “Auto-save” arms the next tap on the preview to save it.

LifeLike sketch ▾

Sketch the word inside the frame (LifeLike AI) LifeLike API key Style AI version Detail (resolution) Transparent background (composite over the photo) Show only the sketch (hide the typed word)

Sketch opacity 100%

Endpoint (advanced)

Turn on, paste your API key, then type a word (or use REVEAL) — a sketch of it appears inside the frame.

The sketch is always clipped to the frame rectangle — never drawn outside it. Turning this on enables the frame so you can position/size it. Requires your own LifeLike subscription API key.

Placement ▾

Tip: drag the word on the photo to move it.

Alternate style on repeated letters

Every 2nd repeat of a letter gets a re-drawn (slanted) variant — e.g. the two O's in BOOK look different.

Chalk texture (grain mask)

Chalk amount 0.60

Displacement map (sink into surface)

Displacement strength 0.40

Soft light blend + Chalk + Displacement make the word sink into the photo's texture like real chalk. Displacement needs an image loaded.

Mask ▾

Tap MASK above the photo, then brush over the preview to hide the word / sketch there — the photo shows through. Tap MASK again to switch Mask ⇄ Erase. The red overlay is only a guide; it is never exported.

Load a .cube LUT, or pull your hosted library above.

Grain ▾

Grain 0%

Size 30%

Roughness 50%

Film grain over the whole image (photo, word & sketch). Grain = amount, Size = coarseness, Roughness = harshness. Included in the export.

Frame & perspective ▾

Enable frame (clip text inside)

Auto-shrink word to fit frame

Frame rotation 0°

Perspective — drag the 4 corner pins

Drag inside to move, drag a corner to resize; Frame rotation tilts the whole frame and text. Turn on Perspective and drag the blue corner pins to skew the text in 3-D.

Export & metadata ▾

Photo “Date taken” — pick a date & time

Downloads are JPEG. Pick a date & time and the EXIF “Date taken” (DateTimeOriginal) is set to exactly that. Leave it empty to write no date — the file keeps its own timestamp.
