つい、撮りすぎてしまった瞬間。 同じような写真がフォルダに何枚も並んでいる。 1枚なんて、選べない。 どの写りもいい。 UTSURIは、そんな同じ場面で連写した写真や似ている写真を、縦長のフィルム風コラージュにまとめられる写真編集アプリです。 選ばなくていい。 どれも、いい写り(UTSURI)だったのだから。 ■ 似ている写真を、自動で見つけます 撮った時刻と場面のつながりから、ひとまとまりの写真を探します。アプリを開くと、最近のまとまりがもう待っています。自分で選びたいときは、写真を直接選ぶこともできます。 ■ 縦一本のフィルムになります 選んだ写真が、フィルムの一コマずつに収まります。枚数が多いときは無理に詰め込まず、複数本に分けます。 ■ 写りを整える 比率、フレームの太さ、そしてLOOK。モノクロ、セピア、街の光。写真そのものには手を入れず、見え方だけを変えます。 ■ 保存も、共有も できあがったフィルムは写真アプリに保存でき、そのまま誰かに送れます。アプリの中のALBUMにも残ります。 ■ 写真は、このiPhoneから出ません 写真の解析はすべて端末の中で行っています。写真そのものを外部のサーバーへ送ることはありません。外部のAIサービスも使っていません。 ■ UTSURI+について 無料のまま、フィルムを作って、保存して、共有するところまで全部使えます。広告はありません。 UTSURI+に登録すると、FRAME WIDTH、LOOK INTENSITY、そしてUTSURI+専用のLOOKを使ったままPRINTできます。これらの編集は、登録しなくても自分の写真で試して確かめられます。必要になるのはPRINTのときだけです。 さらに、アプリ全体を明るい配色に切り替えられます。UTSURIは暗い配色が基本ですが、UTSURI+ではSETTINGSの「テーマ」でいつでも切り替えられます。 ■ UTSURI+の料金と更新について ・年額プランと月額プランは自動更新のサブスクリプションです。価格はアプリ内のUTSURI+の画面に表示されます ・年額プランには7日間の無料トライアルが付きます(お一人一度まで) ・お支払いは購入確定時にApple IDへ請求されます ・期間が終わる24時間前までに解約しない限り、同じ期間ぶんが自動更新されます ・解約はiPhoneの「設定 → Apple ID → サブスクリプション」からいつでも行えます ・買い切りは一度のお支払いで、自動更新はありません ・プライバシーポリシー https://utsuri.vercel.app/privacy ・利用規約 https://utsuri.vercel.app/terms
