How it works - Photograph an object or import one from your library - The subject is detected automatically; refine it with a brush if needed - Decorate with 30+ borders (rainbow, gold, neon…), filters, and text - Save to the app gallery and Photos, or copy and share into Messages The ThingMoji promise - Your photos never leave your device: subject detection runs on-device with Apple Vision - No sign-up, no ads, no tracking - Completely free

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ThingMoji at none against Palette Play's 1. Palette Play's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
