Read full descriptionHide full description
Vanishing Frame is a focused iPhone photo editor for creating motion-smear and vanishing-frame images from photos in your library. Choose a photo, place the guide over the subject, then stretch the image in a direction to create a long exposure style blur. Keep part of the image readable with a protected center point, adjust where the blur begins, and shape the final result with tone, contrast, noise, vignette, and blur controls. Use Vanishing Frame for portraits, architecture, street photos, abstract images, album-art style edits, and graphic photo experiments. Features: - Import a photo from your library - Directional motion-smear effect - Draggable protected point for keeping a subject readable - Adjustable stretch, angle, size, falloff, fade, blur, contrast, noise, and vignette - Black-and-white or color processing mode - Compact bottom control ribbon - Full-resolution export when saving or sharing - Save to Photos - Share through the iOS share sheet - On-device image processing Vanishing Frame keeps the workflow direct: choose a photo, place the guide, tune the controls, save the final image. No AI is used. Vanishing Frame processes selected photos on your device and does not upload images to a server.
