Core AI Widget
Private on-device AI vision
$4.99 · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Scan, understand, and organize everyday things. Keep labels, photos, conversations, and notes together. Export PDFs and back up your library. No subscription.
Core AI helps you discover more in the things around you. Take a photo or choose one from your library to explore objects, read labels, and find inspiration.
EXPLORE YOUR PHOTOS
Identify visible subjects and details with on-device Apple Intelligence. Choose a focus for plants, food, fashion, furniture, or product labels. Ask follow-up questions about your scan.
READ AND CREATE
Recognize text and barcodes, copy useful information, extract a color palette, crop your photo, or lift a subject from its background.
COMPARE POSSIBILITIES
Choose two photos to explore their visible differences, materials, and style. AI estimates of size and value are approximate, not measurements or appraisals.
KEEP YOUR DISCOVERIES
Completed analyses are saved in your local library. Favorite scans, organize collections, export selected content, or delete saved scans. Widgets provide quick access to your last scan and camera.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Photo processing happens on your device. No account, advertising, or analytics. You control sharing and exports. Search actions open external services with your selected search terms. Device backups may include your saved library.
REQUIREMENTS
The app supports iOS and iPadOS 26 or later. AI photo analysis, comparison, chat, and translation require iOS or iPadOS 27 with Apple Intelligence available on a supported device. Text recognition, barcode scanning, and colors work without Apple Intelligence. Camera and AR require suitable hardware.
Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
• Actions that answer: Care, Reviews, and Similar are answered on your device and saved with your scan. Shopping and manual links still open your browser with only the search words.
• Translate without Apple Intelligence: text translation now uses Apple's on-device translator, so it works on more devices.
• Find your saved scans in iPhone Search. You can turn this off in Settings.
• Control Center, Lock Screen, and Action button controls for Live Lens and Analyze Photo.
• Shortcuts: Extract Text and Analyze Image hand their results back to your automations.
• Visual intelligence: Core AI can answer visual searches from Camera Control on supported iPhones.
• Reliability: more memory-efficient restores of large library backups, and fixes throughout.
