Add clean borders, build grids, overlay your camera settings, or bring a still image to life with smooth zoom and pan video, all in seconds. Your edit is done. Photospec takes care of the presentation, so you can get every format you need for Instagram and other social platforms without rebuilding each one by hand. Built for every kind of photographer. Whether you shoot landscapes, streets, portraits, travel or wildlife, Photospec helps you share your work the way it deserves to be seen. Nature photographers can even add species names and descriptions to their shots. Artists and creators use it too.

Everything is processed on-device, and Photospec never edits or generates your images with AI.
