## What is Snap Markup?

Snap Markup — Photo Markup & Editor
Turn any photo into a polished, annotated image in seconds. Mark up screenshots, documents, receipts, real estate, and snapshots with on-device AI, pro editing tools, and effortless sharing — all in one app.

ALL-IN-ONE MARKUP
Crop, rotate, draw, add text, stickers, and overlays from one toolbar. Reorder tools in Settings so your favourites are always one tap away.

DOCUMENT SCANNER
Scan multi-page documents with auto edge detection and straightening. Export as a clean image or searchable PDF.

COLLAGE MAKER
Combine multiple photos into beautiful grid layouts with adjustable spacing, borders, and ratios.

GIF MAKER
Turn photos or video clips into animated GIFs. Add text, stickers, and overlays, then export a ready-to-share loop.

BATCH RESIZE & EXPORT
Resize multiple photos at once. Set custom dimensions and DPI for print or web, and export to PNG, JPG, or HEIC.

PHOTO SPLITTER
Slice an image into a grid for seamless social posts and carousels.

SMART CROP & ROTATE
On-device AI detects documents and faces and suggests the perfect crop. Free, fixed-ratio, and shape crops (rectangle, circle, star, triangle). Rotate, flip, or auto-straighten skewed documents.

ADJUST & AUTO ENHANCE
Fine-tune brightness, contrast, saturation, and exposure with live sliders, or tap Auto Enhance. Cinematic filters in one tap.

BACKGROUND BLUR & COLOUR
Powered by Apple Vision AI — blur the background for a portrait look, or swap it for any solid colour.

ANNOTATE LIKE A PRO
Arrows, shapes, lines, freehand pen, curves, and numbered step callouts. Customise stroke colour, thickness, and opacity. Annotate large images without cropping first.

HIGHLIGHT & HIDE
Spotlight key details, or pixelate sensitive info — faces, addresses, account numbers — before sharing.

TEXT, STICKERS & OVERLAYS
Full text styling with drag, pinch, and rotate. Emoji and shape stickers, plus photo overlays — long-press to remove a background on device.

MORE TOOLS
Date & location stamp, measurement ruler, speech bubbles, OCR text extraction, code scanner, translate, signature, watermark, frame, collage, photo stitch, webpage & map capture, blank canvas, and searchable PDF export.

SHARE WITHOUT FRICTION
Save to Photos or Files, print, copy, set as wallpaper, or share anywhere. Export lossless PNG, high-quality JPG, or HEIC. Generate custom PDFs with your choice of name, quality, and orientation.

76 LANGUAGES & THEMES
Fully localised in 76 languages. Light, Dark, and Auto themes.

PRIVACY FIRST
All AI processing runs on device. Your photos never leave your iPhone or iPad.
