Immersive Border vs Dwell Poetically

Give every photo a frame that feels intentional. CHOOSE A LOOK Start with 24 curated presets, from classic white borders and immersive backgrounds to tickets, postage stamps, 35mm film, a camera viewfinder, vinyl records, and a realistic museum gallery. Swipe between styles while keeping your selected photo. COMPOSE YOUR PHOTO AND FRAME Double-tap the photo or open Compose to choose the ratio of the complete framed image and adjust the photo together. Standard border themes can fill the photo window while keeping the theme’s margins: drag and zoom to frame your subject, switch portrait and landscape, or choose Full Photo to keep the entire image. Free mode retains recommended, common, and custom photo crop ratios. Creative canvas themes keep their distinctive layouts. Changes apply only when you tap Done, and your original photo is preserved. The museum frame adapts to the photo’s shape, with four gallery backgrounds to choose from. MAKE A STYLE YOUR OWN Adjust the available margins, colors, corners, and shadows with full-screen previews. Changes are temporary until you tap Save Preset to save a custom style. Personalize text on tickets, stamps, and other text-based themes. Keep text specific to one photo, or turn on Include Custom Text when saving a preset to reuse your edited text across a project. Fields you leave automatic continue to update with each photo. Ticket colors can match your photo automatically or use your own palette. Favorite and duplicate presets with a long press, and reuse your custom styles later. DETAILS FROM YOUR CAMERA Display available camera model, lens, exposure, date, and place information from your photo’s metadata. Film and vinyl themes use the actual camera model when it is available. STANDARD AND HIGH QUALITY EXPORTS Save the finished image to a dedicated album in Photos or share through the iOS share sheet. Standard export, up to 2400 px on the longest edge, is free and selected by default. An optional one-time Pro purchase unlocks High Quality export up to 6000 px. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your photos are processed on your device. No account, ads, analytics, tracking, or developer server. When a selected photo contains coordinates, Apple system geocoding may be used to display a place name. No subscription. No sign-in. Standard export stays free. READY TO SHARE OR PRINT Choose the ratio of the entire framed image: square, 3:2, 4:3, 4:5, 5:7, 16:9, or 100 × 148 mm. Save the format, orientation, and framing preference with your custom preset. Every format exports an ordinary image at your selected Standard or High Quality setting, ready to use with your preferred printing service or app.

Poetically, man dwells on this earth. Dwell sets out to find, restore and keep the poetry in everyday life. Choose a photo or Live Photo. Dwell reads the scene on this device — the hour, the pentad, the colours it already carries — finds a fitting line among 368 lines of Chinese verse and prose, each checked against its source, and sets it on one of the objects below. Photographs, with the day around them. A photograph remembers what you saw and forgets the rest — that the day was the second pentad of Qingming, that the hour was wei, that the colour you kept looking at has a name six hundred years old. Colophon · vertical text, a poem, three seals Ticket · a stub, the lightest of them Letter · mostly paper, a little picture Instant print · a white border and the line beneath it Glass · the photograph full-bleed, under a band of colour Brocade · the poem woven into a floor of coloured bricks — and it scans Heart Knot · colours from the photograph gather and knot into a heart Postcard · the photograph on one side, the line on the other, as if mailed from where you took it Vinyl · your photograph at the centre of a record, the poem pressed into its grooves; or in coloured vinyl Desk Calendar · your photograph stays clear in the frame; its date and solar term settle onto paper, upright for portrait photos Exhibit Label · the little card beside a painting in a museum, with your photograph as the exhibit Star Jar · the photograph's colours fold into paper stars and drop into a glass jar, each with its traditional name Print Envelope · the kraft envelope from a photo lab, the line written in its notes Luggage Tag · a card tag for a suitcase, bound for the solar term it was taken in Folding Fan · your photograph opens across a fan, the poem along its ribs; it fits a Lock Screen too Bookmark · a slim bookmark, the poem down its length, a tassel in the photograph's colour Frosted Glass Card · a blurred copy of the photograph as mist, the clear one held on frosted glass Poem Mosaic · the photograph rebuilt from the poem's own characters, the original beside it Rubbing · the photograph mounted above, the poem lifted white out of black ink Photo Booth Strip · four frames from one photograph, on a photo booth strip On a festival day — Mid-Autumn, Qixi, the Double Ninth — the line written for that day comes first. Say who the work is for, and it chooses a line for them. Gather works into an album and leaf through it page by page; the last page carries its title, how many works it holds, and the days they span. A Seasons page shows today's solar term and pentad, and the whole year on one chart. It does not touch your photograph. No filters, no grain, no grading; the original in your library is left exactly as it is. It writes nothing it has not looked up: 384 traditional colour names, 368 lines checked against their sources, a Yuan-dynasty almanac of the seventy-two pentads. Your photos are never uploaded. No account, no analytics, no server. The one network request is optional city-name lookup — off by default, and it sends only a location already rounded to about 10 km. Free, and staying free: Colophon, Ticket, Exhibit Label and Bookmark, every colour name, every poem, albums, export with no watermark. The other objects come in cases, each a one-time purchase. Case I unlocks Letter, Instant print, Glass and Brocade, with Live Photo export from still images. Case II unlocks Heart Knot, Postcard, Vinyl and Desk Calendar; Heart Knot and Vinyl save with their motion, as a Live Photo or a video. Case III unlocks Star Jar, Print Envelope, Luggage Tag and Folding Fan; Star Jar and Folding Fan save with their motion and a little sound. Case IV unlocks Frosted Glass Card, Poem Mosaic, Rubbing and Photo Booth Strip, each saving with its own motion. Cases I–IV also come as one bundle, covering these four only. Any case lets you save an album as a page-turning video. A work you have already made is never taken back.
