Save fashion finds before you forget them. StyleStocker brings saved inspiration and clothes you own together, so you can organize your collection, find an item later, and plan outfits. SAVE FROM LINKS, IMAGES AND SHARES Save fashion posts and products from URLs, images or screenshots. Keep the source link, brand, purchase link and notes together. Import from the iPhone share menu. ORGANIZE YOUR CLOSET Add clothes you own with photos, browse by category or color, and keep wear records. CREATE OUTFIT BOARDS Choose saved items and owned clothes, arrange them into outfits, and save boards or export outfit images to Photos. CREATE PRODUCT-STYLE IMAGES Select a garment in a photo and use AI to create a product-style image for an outfit. Reusing an existing generated image does not consume another generation. Generated details may differ from the original garment. AI TAGGING AND NATURAL-LANGUAGE SEARCH Generate clothing tags from images and search your saved items with phrases such as "a beige layer for spring." With Pro, the share screen can tag all selected images. After the share screen accepts the job, server processing continues without reopening the main app. Availability depends on the connection, images and usage limits. COLLECTIONS AND PURCHASE LINKS Group wish-list items and favorites into collections, and return to the original product page through its link. FREE FEATURES - Ordinary item saving/organization and closet management - Up to 3 outfit boards and 5 collections - 3 lifetime product-image trial generations - 3 AI searches per calendar month - AI tagging for up to 100 images per calendar month AI requires Sign in with Apple and an internet connection.

Regenerating tags uses the number of images analyzed again. Re-delivering the same job or fetching its result does not consume again. Product-image generation consumes one use when successful; regeneration consumes another use. Unused allowances do not roll over. Monthly Pro limits renew with the subscription period. Annual Pro limits renew monthly based on the verified subscription start date. Free monthly limits follow the calendar month. See the purchase screen and App Store for localized prices and duration. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when confirmed. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel in Apple settings. Deleting a StyleStocker account does not cancel an Apple subscription. AI DATA SHARING Relevant images/text are sent through Supabase to OpenAI for tagging/search, and selected images are sent to Google Gemini API for product-image generation. Before the first transfer, the app explains the data and recipient and asks for consent. Consent can be withdrawn in Settings. The privacy policy explains retention and deletion.
