Easier mask picking, and more reliable shortcuts. • Your default mask now shows at the top of the app, next to Settings: one tap to change it. • The mask picker is now organized in two tabs, Emojis and Stickers, and everything fits on screen. • An emoji palette lets you create a mask in one tap. An emoji you already have is simply reused, with no duplicate. • Tapping a mask now selects it too, so you can change its emoji without moving it first. • The resize handle stays within reach, even against the edge of the photo or on a close-up face. • Fixed: after saving, the widget or Back Tap reopened the copy instead of your latest photo. • Fixed: the widget now opens your latest photo, even when another one was already open in the editor.

Smile & Tap is now completely free: no photo limit at all. • New Home Screen widget: your latest photo, the camera or your library, one tap away. • New iOS 18 control for Control Center, the Lock Screen or the Action button. • New in-app camera: the photo goes straight to the editor with faces masked, and is never saved to your library. • A single page now gathers every shortcut and tells you which ones are already set up. • In the editor, a trash button removes the selected mask, and the mask button now changes only that one. The one-time purchase is now only about creating your own masks beyond the first and supporting a free app with no ads and no accounts.

New: hide a face with blur or pixelation • Blur and Pixelate, two new free masks. Instead of covering the face with a sticker, they rework the photo itself, until no recognisable detail is left. • A quicker start. Nothing to set up before you begin: mask your first photo right away, and the triple tap on the back of your iPhone can wait until you actually want it. • A reminder at the right moment. Once you've protected your first photo, the home screen offers the shortcut, just as its point becomes obvious. • A clearer tutorial. It now shows where to get Apple's Shortcuts app if it isn't on your iPhone.
