Get the best out of Photo Cartoonizer on iPhone, iPad and Mac - choose the right style for the photo, fine-tune it in the Adjust panel without starting over, and export at the size you need.
Thirteen. Eight AI anime and cartoon styles: Warm (dreamy, sunlit colors), Celeste (elegant anime portrait), Hosoda (soft watercolor anime), Vivid (bold face paint anime), Paprika (bright cartoon colors), Shinkai (cinematic skies and warm light), Hayao (rich watercolor anime) and Whitebox (clean, sketch-like cartoon). And five classic art styles: Sketch, Comic, Pop Art, Oil Paint and Watercolor.
Every style in the strip shows a live preview made from your own picture, so you can see the result before you choose. Tap a style and the photo changes in a few seconds.
No. All processing happens on the Neural Engine and GPU of your device. The app works offline, with no sign-up, no email and no tracking.
Open the Adjust panel - on Mac with Option-Command-I. Style Strength blends the effect with your original photo, and Saturation, Brightness and Warmth change the color. Everything updates instantly except Brush Size, which runs the style again.
Brush Size gives bolder, flatter, more painterly shapes. Ink Outlines adds a crisp hand-drawn finish. Keep Original Colors applies the art style with your photo's real colors. Person or Background styles only the person, or only what is behind them. Protect Faces keeps portraits looking natural.
Neither. Free gives you unlimited photos with four styles - Warm, Celeste, Hosoda and Sketch - live previews of every style, Style Strength and color controls, and JPEG export up to 2048 px.
Free exports JPEG up to 2048 px. Pro adds lossless PNG and TIFF, plus 4K (4096 px) and unlimited resolution for large prints.
All 13 styles plus every style added later, the five Pro adjustments, PNG and TIFF export, and 4K and unlimited resolution. Pro is a monthly or yearly subscription - the yearly plan includes a free trial - or a one-time lifetime purchase.

Yes. Switch between Before and After, or on Mac drag the comparison slider across the photo.
Every past result is kept in History, so you can go back to one without running the style again.
Usually lighting and framing. Even, soft light and a simple background give the cleanest results. If a style changes the face too much, lower Style Strength or turn on Protect Faces.
