Type what you want tattooed, pick a style, and Etch draws it in a few seconds. Then put it on a photo of your own arm, ribs or back to see how it sits before you book anything. What you can do • Design: describe an idea, then choose a style and where on the body it goes. • Try On: upload a photo of the spot you're considering and preview the tattoo there. • Inkify: turn a photo of a pet, a place or a person into tattoo linework. • Extract: lift an existing tattoo out of a photo and onto plain paper. • Couple: make matching designs for partners, friends, family or rivals. • Stencil: get a clean outline for your artist to trace. Save it and send it over. Ten styles: Minimal Modern, Traditional, Neo Traditional, New School, Realism, Watercolor, Tribal, Japanese, Geometric and Trash Polka. Each has a short note on where it comes from and how it ages, which helps if you're picking your first tattoo. Try a few placements and sizes before you decide. Designs save to Photos, so you can share them with friends or your tattooist. Etch Pro Some features need Etch Pro, an optional purchase. Plans and prices are shown in the app before you buy. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel any time in your Apple Account settings. Designs are created with AI. Your prompts and photos are sent to Google's Gemini to generate results, and only after you agree. Etch is a tool for inspiration and planning; the final tattoo depends on your artist. Terms of Use: https://anislabs.space/terms Privacy Policy: https://anislabs.space/privacy
