Magic Media

Features
Read full description

Magic Media turns ordinary photos, posters, and printed pages into augmented reality experiences — point your camera at a recognized image and watch video, audio, or a 3D model appear right on top of it. HOW IT WORKS Scan a supported image with your camera. Magic Media recognizes it in real time and overlays the matching AR content — a video, a sound, or a 3D object — anchored right where you're looking. UPLOAD YOUR OWN TRIGGERS Sign in with Apple to contribute your own AR triggers: pick a target photo, attach a video or audio clip, and submit it. Once reviewed, it becomes something anyone using the app can discover just by scanning your image — no update required. VOICE COMMANDS Ask Magic Media what it can do, and it'll talk you through its features out loud, hands-free. BUILT-IN DEMOS Magic Media ships with a set of demo triggers to try immediately, including a set of U.S. currency bills that reveal short video content about the note when scanned. PRIVACY, PLAINLY Camera frames are processed entirely on your device for AR tracking and are never recorded or uploaded. Microphone audio is only used when you're actively using voice commands, and only to recognize what you said. Full details are in our Privacy Policy. COMMUNITY CONTENT Every user-submitted trigger is reviewed before it becomes visible to anyone else, and you can report anything you find objectionable directly from the app.
