Reference Board vs Framely

Reference Board is a private visual workspace for collecting inspiration, developing ideas, and keeping creative research close at hand on Mac, iPhone, and iPad. BUILD VISUAL BOARDS • Collect images, videos, links, text, colors, and PDFs in one place. • Arrange references freely on an infinite canvas or switch to an organized grid. • Move, resize, group, stack, crop, flip, and annotate without changing your original media. • Use the loupe to inspect fine details in images and videos. FIND WHAT YOU NEED • Search across boards and references. • Use on-device analysis, OCR, colors, metadata, and visual similarity to rediscover material quickly. • Keep notes and details attached to the work they describe. SYNC, COLLABORATE, AND SHARE • Keep your library in sync across Mac, iPhone, and iPad with iCloud. • Invite others to collaborate on shared boards. • Publish a separate public, view-only webpage when you want to present your work more widely. • Update or unpublish a published board whenever you like. WORK YOUR WAY • Import from Photos, Files, Safari, drag and drop, or the Share Sheet. • Export boards as images, PDFs, or Reference Board archives. • Use widgets, Shortcuts, the screen saver, and optional MCP automation to connect Reference Board to your workflow. ONE PURCHASE. NO SUBSCRIPTION. New customers receive Reference Pro with their App Store purchase, including unlimited private boards and items, Publish to Web, AI metadata and visual discovery, new collaborations, PDF export, and MCP automation. People who acquired Reference while it was free keep their existing Free plan with one private board and up to 20 items. They can unlock lifetime Reference Pro with a one-time in-app purchase. Reaching a Free limit never deletes or hides existing work. Original paid-app customers and people who already purchased lifetime Reference Pro keep permanent Pro access automatically.

Framely turns plain screenshots into polished, share-ready mockups — right on your iPhone. Import a screenshot or a screen recording, wrap it in a realistic device frame — flat or on a real 3D device — drop it on a beautiful background, and export in seconds. No account, no sign-up, nothing to learn. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Three modes, one editor — Photo, Video and 3D, with the same text, drawing and layout tools in each • 3D mockups — stand your screenshot on a real 3D device, spin it, tilt it, pick any angle, and set camera keyframes to export the move as a video • Realistic device frames — from iPhone 15 to iPhone 17 Pro Max and iPhone Air, each in its real finish colors • Backgrounds — solid colors, gradients (linear, radial, angular, diamond), built-in wallpapers, or your own photo with adjustable blur • Layout — aspect ratio, two-axis alignment, zoom and soft shadow • Status bar — a clean 9:41 bar you can switch on, in black or white • Text — add captions and pick the font, size, color and alignment • Draw — freehand brush and arrows to point out what matters • Motion — turn a screen recording into a smooth zoom-and-pan video mockup: trim it, cut parts out, add your own music with fade in and out, or save any frame as a still • Share extension — send a screenshot or a recording straight from Photos or any other app into Framely WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU EXPORT One renderer drives both the live canvas and the final file, so the export matches the preview exactly — no surprises, no cropped shadows. MADE FOR iOS 26 Framely is built with SwiftUI and the new Liquid Glass design, top to bottom. GREAT FOR App Store screenshots, product launches, portfolios, client presentations, social posts and release notes. EXPORTS AND GEMS Framely starts you with 10 free gems.
