Put a whole day into one frame. Pick up to nine photos. They land in the order you tap. Choose a layout, add the white space on purpose, pick 1:1, 4:5, or 9:16, and export exactly what you see. SeloPhoto is a collage tool for iPhone — not a sticker pack, not a cloud editor. Your photos and videos stay on your device. Pick them with the system picker, or optionally allow photo-library read access so long videos import faster. The app works fully without it. WHAT YOU CAN MAKE • Grids and featured layouts for 1–9 photos • Polaroid-style bottoms, margins, and gutters you can actually see • Solid, gradient, or (with Pro) photo and custom backgrounds • Square posts, 4:5 portraits, and 9:16 Stories — same canvas you export • Live Photos and videos in your slots: trim each clip, pick its cover frame, and choose whose sound plays • Seamless blend (Pro): photos fade into each other at the seams, in any layout • Split into Grid: cut one photo or your collage into 3, 6, 9, or 12 tiles for grid posts HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick photos. They fill slots in tap order. 2. Pan, pinch, and swap until the crop feels right. 3. Share or save: JPEG, PNG, or a still GIF — or MP4 and Live Photo when your collage moves. PRIVACY Collages render on your iPhone. No account. No ads. No tracking. Reading your library is optional and only speeds up import. Saving to Photos only adds; you can also share without granting library access. SELOPHOTO PRO (ONE-TIME) Unlock every layout, seamless blend, custom backgrounds, custom export size or file size, videos up to 3 minutes (free: 5 seconds), and 1080p at 30 fps. Lifetime — not a subscription. Restore with your Apple ID anytime. SeloPhoto is made for the photos you already took today.
