GridFix

Read full description

Tilt your camera up at a building and the verticals lean inward. Let your hand tip and the horizon goes crooked. GridFix fixes this the most intuitive way possible: draw guide lines along the edges that should be straight, and the app computes the perspective correction that makes them truly vertical and horizontal. And now, you can get it right at the moment you shoot. LIVE-CORRECTED CAMERA - The corrected image shows live in the viewfinder. What you see is what you get, no guesswork afterwards - A tilt readout shows your pitch and roll at all times - Correct verticals only, or auto-level the horizon as well - Pinch to zoom, EV compensation scale, long-press AE/AF lock, self-timer, volume-button shutter - Level sensor calibration: a fixed offset from your case or sensor tolerance is measured once and subtracted from then on - The session gallery lets you review shots, compare with the original, or send one straight into the editor EDIT IMPORTED PHOTOS - Guide-line correction: no blind slider fiddling, just show the app which lines should be straight - Double-tap to zoom: magnify right where you are working and trace window frames and beams precisely - A loupe keeps the edge visible while you drag, positioned for right- or left-handed use - Lens distortion correction: fixes the outward bow of ultra-wide edges, which perspective correction alone cannot fix - Fine-tuning: adjust every axis manually after the correction - Crop, rotate, flip, and auto-trim the blank edges correction leaves behind - Edit history: every session is saved automatically, so you can reopen and continue any time IMPORT AND EXPORT - Import from Photos, Files and iCloud Drive, or share into GridFix from any other app - Export JPEG, HEIF, PNG or TIFF, at original resolution or a custom size - Everything runs on your device: no account, no network, your photos never leave your phone FREE AND SUBSCRIPTION Every correction tool is free: guide lines, lens distortion, fine-tune sliders, cropping and the live-corrected camera are all fully usable, with unlimited viewfinder time. The limits are only on output: 3 editor exports a day, 10 camera saves a day, both at up to 2048px on the long edge, JPEG, without capture info or location (the capture date and orientation are kept). Subscribing unlocks: - Unlimited exports and unlimited camera saves - Original-resolution export (up to 48MP; the free tier caps the long edge at 2048px) - RAW import (ProRAW, DNG); PNG, TIFF and HEIF export at maximum encoder quality - Full EXIF kept on exports and captures (lens, exposure, location) - Live-corrected video recording (high-bitrate HEVC) GridFix does one thing well: it makes crooked lines straight. No color grading, no filters, no object removal. Available in English, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean, German, French and Spanish.

PersCrop

PersCrop flattens a photo shot at an angle into a straight-on rectangle. Drag the four corners onto your subject and the photo is warped square using a true projective transform — the same maths a scanner's dewarp uses — not a rotation or a stretch. Everything runs on your phone; no photo ever leaves the device. Photograph a whiteboard, a page, a painting or a shop sign and the angle you stood at is baked in: edges lean, corners stretch, the rectangle isn't a rectangle. That is the problem PersCrop was built to solve. Around it sits a small set of tools for the rest of what you do to a photo before posting it. PERSPECTIVE CROP — straighten a photo taken at an angle • Drag four corners onto any four-sided subject: documents, whiteboards, artwork, posters, shop signs • A real homography warp removes the keystone distortion and returns a proper rectangle • Live preview updates as you drag, so you see the result before exporting • Output resolution follows the shape you selected, so detail is kept • Export as PNG, JPEG or WebP NO CROP — fit the whole photo to any aspect ratio • Post the entire photo, with nothing chopped off by a square or vertical frame • Pad to any ratio with a solid color, a gradient, or a blurred copy of the photo itself • Square 1:1, Portrait 4:5, Story 9:16, Classic 4:3, Wide 16:9, plus 3:2, 2:3, A4 paper, 21:9 cinema and 3:1 banner COLLAGE — several photos in one frame • Column, row, grid and diagonal layouts that adapt as photos are added or removed • Adjustable gaps, corner rounding and background color • Pinch and drag inside a cell to position each photo exactly PANORAMA CROP — one wide photo, one seamless carousel • Slice a wide shot into equal panels that line up as the carousel swipes • Choose the panel count and which part of the photo the panels cover GRID CROP — turn an image into a profile mosaic • Cut one image into tiles that rebuild it across your profile grid • Three tiles wide, as many rows as you want • Tiles export in posting order, so the mosaic assembles correctly BUILT FOR PHONES • GPU-accelerated rendering, so previews move with your finger instead of lagging behind it • Light and dark themes that follow your system setting • Save straight to your photo library, or share to any app • Batch save several results in one run PRIVATE BY DESIGN Every crop, warp and export happens on your device. PersCrop has no account, no sign-in, no analytics profile and no server to send photos to. Photo library access is used only to read the picture you pick and to save what you make. It works with no connection at all. WHAT PERSCROP IS NOT It is not a document scanner: there is no OCR, no text recognition and no multi-page PDF export. It straightens and exports images. PERSCROP PRO The core tools are free. Pro is a one-time purchase — no subscription and no recurring charge — and unlocks all tools, the full set of aspect ratios and editing options, and unlimited batch saving. Questions or feedback?
