The AI runs entirely on your iPhone using Apple's on-device Vision technology — your photos are never uploaded, never sent to a server, never seen by anyone but you. FEATURES • Smart auto-arrange with on-device face & subject framing — and fully adjustable after • Classic white Polaroid frame, with your caption in the frame • Layouts from 1×3 strips to a 3×4 grid • Square (1:1) and portrait (4:5) export • Pinch to zoom, drag to reposition, tap to swap any photo • Adjustable grid lines and an optional caption • One tap to save the finished grid to Photos PRIVATE BY DESIGN Gridlai has no accounts and makes no network connections at all.
