One picture, made from your memories. Choose a main photo and a collection of pictures you love. Manyframe arranges your photos into tiny tiles that come together as one larger image. Zoom in to see the individual moments, then step back to see the bigger picture. MAKE IT YOURS • Change the main photo whenever you like. • Choose tile photos with your phone's photo picker or import a device album. • Use up to 500 tile photos through album import; the system picker may allow fewer in one selection. • Adjust tile detail and color blending, and allow photos to repeat for a fuller mosaic. • Compare your creation with the original and explore it at up to 8× zoom. • Save a JPEG to your photo library or open your phone's share sheet. FREE TO CREATE Make, save, and share mosaics in 2K or 4K for free, without watermarks. An optional one-time purchase unlocks 8K output for extra detail. The price is shown by your app store before you buy. No subscription, ads, or limits on how many mosaics you create. TRY IT FIRST A ready-to-use sample lets you make your first mosaic before granting photo access. ON YOUR DEVICE Your photos are processed on your phone or tablet. Manyframe does not upload them. No sign-up is required. Apple or Google handles payment if you choose the optional 8K upgrade. Album import uses photos available in your device's library; cloud-only photos may need downloading through your system photo picker. Albums larger than 500 photos import the newest 500. Animated pictures use a still frame. Keep the app open while creating, and save mosaics you want to keep: projects are not stored between sessions.
