Unfade: Photo & Video Editor

Unfade is a photo editor and a video editor built for a thumb, for people who post. Both editors are free. Every export is free. Nothing carries a watermark.

And when you have no photo — only an idea — there is the Lab.

MAKE ANYTHING, WITHOUT WRITING A PROMPT The Lab is 164 ready-made ideas on twelve shelves: YouTube thumbnails, profile pictures, posts, product shots, things to sell, posters, scenes, design, characters, game art, art styles, and the strange ones you send to a friend. Every card is a finished picture, and under it the sentence that made it — with blanks you tap.

"A young woman with her mouth wide open in shock, a huge red arrow pointing at a laptop." Tap "shock" and pick rage, or delight, or disbelief. Tap "red" and pick gold. Tap "a laptop" and pick a guitar. Shuffle rolls every blank at once. There is nothing to type and nothing to learn, and the cards say millions of different sentences between them — every one a choice you made rather than a prompt you copied. On the cards that take one, the person in the picture can be you.

THE PHOTO EDITOR One rail, every tool one tap away: Looks, Adjust, Grade, Portrait, Background, Text, Stickers, Layers, Crop, Magic. Exposure, HDR, tone, white and black point, per-channel curves and HSL. Color wheels for shadows, midtones and highlights with a scope reading the picture. Layers with the subject cut onto its own layer, groups, masks and brushed adjustment layers. 80 fonts shown on your own photo, gradient text, pills, outlines, shadows, emoji. 218 stickers, arrows, badges, labels, frames, speech bubbles and animated GIFs in any shade — plus your own, and a pencil to draw on the picture. Sliders move the image live; hold for Before; pinch to zoom.

THE VIDEO EDITOR A strip with a fixed playhead and everything playing in the preview while you drag. Trim, split, speed ramps, transitions. Twenty looks and full color grading on the moving frame. Titles in 38 fonts, burned in, with motion. Captions from the audio in your language. Overlays that move: stickers, GIFs, picture-in-picture, your own drawing. Music from the library or your own, fades and volume over the waveform. Free.

TEMPLATES IN YOUR PALETTE Styles you wear on your own photo — words and stickers hiding behind you, a background or a colour block changing the scene, a frame holding the picture. Every template takes the colours of your palette; pick one or build your own from five swatches or a photo. Tap one and it opens in the editor with every line still a layer.

ASK UNFADE Say what the post is for — "caption this", "three looks for this photo", "make it a Story" — and every answer is something you can open: looks on your own picture, a caption with hashtags, a Story cut in the video editor.

AI THAT HELPS, NEVER ONE THAT POSTS FOR YOU Clean up, relight, smart crop, make it HD, remove the background. Each one lands back in the editor with the price on the button before you spend.

OLD PHOTOS, BROUGHT BACK Scratches, tears and fading repaired, with an Identity Lock that keeps the real face and a before/after on hold. Your first five are free.

WHATSAPP STICKERS From a photo, a clip or the meme makers — free, five a day. Share yours and put a whole pack into WhatsApp in one tap.

FAIR The editors, every template and every export are free. Credits buy the AI runs, and every price is on the button before a credit moves; a failed job refunds itself. Premium is unlimited restorations, HD exports and 30 credits a month. Free accounts see an ad while a render runs and can choose to watch one for more stickers or a credit; Premium removes ads. No spam, no pop-ups, and your photos are never the product.
