## What is Letterloom?

Turn a favorite photo into a black-and-white portrait made entirely from letters, symbols, or your own words.

Letterloom lets you create classic ASCII-style art with a custom character set, or build a personal word portrait from a name or meaningful message. Start with a photo from Photos or Files, or try a bundled sample.

CREATE YOUR PORTRAIT
• Choose your own characters or use Classic, Binary, and Minimal presets.
• Repeat a personal message in varied letter sizes and weights.
• Adjust detail, brightness, and contrast.
• Choose the original frame, a 4:5 portrait, or a square, with optional face-centered cropping.
• Compare with the original photo and zoom in to explore the lettering.
• Reverse the artwork to white characters on black.

FREE TO CREATE AND SHARE
Both portrait modes and all editing controls are free. Export a PNG with a 2,400-pixel long edge, save it to Photos, or share it through the native share sheet. Character mode also exports a plain text file. Your artwork has no watermark.

PRINT STUDIO: ONE-TIME UNLOCK
An optional non-consumable in-app purchase unlocks:
• Fixed-layout PDFs for US Letter, A4, or an artwork-sized page.
• Larger PNGs with a 4,800- or 7,200-pixel long edge.
• Saving larger PNGs to Photos.

PDFs preserve the portrait's layout. Ordinary letters and symbols use vector outlines so their edges stay sharp when enlarged. Choose less detail for larger, easier-to-read lettering on paper. PNG dimensions vary with the selected crop.

Print Studio is a one-time purchase with no subscription. Restore Purchases is available in the app.

MADE ON YOUR DEVICE
Photo processing happens on your iPhone or iPad. No account is required, and Letterloom has no ads or analytics. Photos are not uploaded for conversion.
