Make your photos a little more fun. Caption Magic suggests playful captions and short stories for the photos you choose, then helps you turn your favorite into a shareable image. • Pick a photo, take a picture, or paste an image. • Choose a caption or story and adjust how the text looks. • Try Magic Backgrounds on photos with people. • Save or share the finished image, and revisit recent creations in History. Caption Magic uses Apple Private Cloud Compute for captions and stories when it’s available. Otherwise, it can send the photo you choose to OpenAI to generate them. You can turn off OpenAI fallback in Settings. Free includes 20 caption or story generations combined and 20 Magic Background uses each day on this device. Caption Magic Pro removes those app limits, the export watermark, and in-app ads. Standard Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
