Pausing a video and saving a frame gives you the frame you happened to stop on, and it is usually a blurry one. Fliqer scans the whole clip, scores every frame for sharpness, faces and composition, and hands you the best ones. Then Enhance turns the frame you pick into a photo, not a still. BEST SHOTS One tap scans the clip and returns its sharpest moments as a card deck or a grid. Keep the ones you like and save them together. Best Shots is free and runs entirely on your iPhone. CATCH THE EXACT FRAME Scrub the timeline, step by 1, 3, 5, 10 or 30 frames, change the playback speed and capture the moment yourself. Trimmed and slow-motion clips work too. ENHANCE Turn a soft frame into a clear photo with on-device upscaling and noise cleanup. Compare the original and the result side by side before you save. Enhance is part of Pro. YOUR LIBRARY, READY TO BROWSE Albums and clips from your Photos library, a list view with the date and length of every video, a badge with the number of frames you already saved from it, and the details behind each clip: resolution, frame rate, date and place. LEARNS WHAT YOU LIKE Every keep and skip in Best Shots teaches Fliqer your taste. Personalization is computed on your device from your own choices; you can see its progress and clear it at any time. SAVE IT YOUR WAY Export as JPG, PNG or HEIC at full resolution, straight to your photo library or the Fliqer album. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your videos and the frames you save never leave your iPhone. Sharing anonymous learning data to improve Best Shots is optional, off by default and managed in Settings. FREE AND PRO Free: browse your videos, run Best Shots, step through frames and save up to 10 frames per calendar month. Pro: unlimited saves and Enhance.
