## What is AI Effects?

Most editors ask you to design the edit. Vye asks you to pick the one you like.

Vye's on-device AI reads your photo and generates the strongest edits for it, completely offline. Swipe through them like cards: keep, skip, crown a winner. No presets to scroll, no sliders to decode. Free every day. Unlock once, yours forever, no subscription.

HOW IT WORKS
Select a photo. Vye reads it locally, generates a set of distinct edits, and shows them as swipeable cards. Keep what works, skip what doesn't, duel the finalists head to head, then fine-tune the winner with full control over color, contrast, temperature, and more.

Pick a focused run, or let Flow keep generating until you spot a gem.

WHY IT'S DIFFERENT
No two photos get the same edits. Vye reads the content, mood, and lighting of each image and proposes looks pulled from a dozen distinct visual styles. The result is variety you wouldn't have thought to try.

Swipe to keep or skip, duel the finalists, double-tap to crown the winner. Choosing feels like a game, not a chore.

FREE EVERY DAY
You get 2 full edits a day, free. The one-time unlock removes the limit: unlimited edits, every look, forever.

MADE FOR APPLE INTELLIGENCE
Vye is built for Apple Intelligence. Every edit comes from Apple's on-device models, running entirely on your iPhone. You already paid for the Neural Engine. Vye puts it to work.

PRIVACY
No cloud upload. No internet access. No account. The entire pipeline runs on your iPhone, including the on-device AI that picks the edits.

### 5/5 — wow

*2026-07-12*

Absolutely Favorite 📷

### 5/5 — ⚠️ Highly addictive!

*2026-06-23*

The effects are fun, never the same and so I don’t feel my usual choice paralysis. Every time I open it, I know I can swipe until I see something beautiful and unique. And the fact that it’s all happening locally on my phone makes it feel truly magical - I can use it in the airplane, or wherever. After a few days I realized I swipe here more than I scroll social media. Love the app.

**Developer response:** Really appreciate this. I especially love the “swiping until something beautiful appears” description, because that is exactly the feeling I wanted Vye to have. And I’m glad the local part matters to you too.

### 5/5 — Love the Magic Filter Selection

*2026-06-20*

I’m not a photographer, pretty impressed that the app is easy to use by just swiping left and right to have the on device AI to select the best filter. I like the AI enhancement while respecting not uploading to the cloud

**Developer response:** Really appreciate you saying this. I wanted Vye to make editing feel less technical, so you can just swipe, compare, and trust your eye. Keeping everything on device was a hard constraint from day one, so I’m glad that part matters to you too.

### 5/5 — Cool AI effects

*2026-06-19*

The swiping feature is especially fun! 💕

**Developer response:** Thank you. Really glad you’re enjoying the app:)

### 5/5 — 🤩 Amazing App! ✨

*2026-06-19*

Great app with high-quality results. Easy to use and works smoothly. Looking forward to future updates and new features.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much. Really glad you liked the results and the flow. Future updates are already in the works (batch editing, favorites).

### 5/5 — Privacy focused and makes for great quick edits

*2026-06-17*

Pretty great app! I like that it allows me to make quick edits out of a photo, I get a lot of decision paralysis when editing pics taken on my phone, so this def helps speed up the process for quick edits. I especially like the focus on privacy.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much. This is exactly why I built Vye, and I’m really happy that it felt useful to you in the same way it does to me. And yes, privacy was one of the highest priorities. It created a lot of headaches and restrictions, but I think it was worth it.
