About

Mira

Features
Read full description

Mira is a reverse image search for photos. Add a picture and Mira searches the public web to show you where that image appears — a list of links and matching pages you open yourself. It works like a visual search engine: you get public web results (links and thumbnails), and you decide which to open. Your search history stays on your device. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Reverse image search — find where a photo appears across the open web. • Protect yourself — see where your own photos show up online. • Spot reused photos — check whether a picture has been copied or reposted (helps against catfish and fake profiles). • Search by photo — match a picture to public pages that contain a similar image. HOW IT WORKS 1. Add a photo. 2. Mira runs a reverse image search across public web sources (powered by a third-party search provider). 3. You get links and matching images — open any result at its source. PRIVACY • Your results come straight from the public web; your search history stays on your device. • Your photo is sent to our search provider only to run the search, and is never sold. • Use Mira responsibly and legally. — Mira offers search credits through auto-renewing subscriptions and one-time in-app purchases. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends. Unused credits may expire per your plan. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings.
