Edit videos, not just photos. • Video to ASCII: turn any clip into ASCII art, with every style, character set, color palette and animation.

The preview loops over your selection. • Sound: your clip's audio plays in the editor and is kept in the exported video. • Depth: add depth-aware ASCII to photos and video. It runs on your device. • Photo editing: crop, rotate, flip, filters, sharpness and vignette, all non-destructive. • Subject cutout: lift your subject off the background (Pro). • Custom characters: type your own set. It's sorted from dense to sparse automatically. • Live Photo export: save your ASCII art as a Live Photo. • Export as text or HTML, and copy your art as plain text. • Copy Style and Paste Style: touch and hold any edit on Home to reuse its look. Undo is available in the editor. • Faster rendering on the GPU. • iPad keyboard shortcuts: ⌘E export, Space play/pause, ⌘Z undo. • A short introduction on first launch, Dynamic Type and VoiceOver improvements, and a way to send feedback from Settings.
