Photo Summary App v2 is now available. Learn more about the new features and the history of the app below.

New / Improved Features

Photo Summary App v2 includes a bunch of new functionality including:

  • Move / resize text on screen
    Previously you could “kind of” do this on Android with Pro Mode but it wasn’t a great experience and wasn’t available on iPhone.
  • Better template designs
    Including two column layout (brand new), plus design flourishes like the separator line (previously iPhone only)
  • Support for modern file formats like HEIC etc
    Previously opening HEIC files like those shot with an iPhone just didn’t work, now they work great
  • More customisation options
    You could choose a font before but couldn’t preview the font, now you can. Plus you can control the amount of blur
  • Support modern phone features and improved design
    EG: Liquid Glass on iPhone and modern Android design guidelines. Animations when saving images.

Features added since v2.0

  • Improved stability and performance
  • ‘Width mode’ if you long press on the image. Changes resizing from ‘scaling’ to ‘adjust text width’
  • ‘Open in Photo Summary’ from you gallery app when looking at a photo
  • Add TikTok as a text option
  • Option to open ‘files’ instead of ‘images’ in settings, which makes it easier to find images in places like Google Drive on an iPhone

History

Photo Summary App v2 is the third complete rewrite of PSA from scratch:

  • Photo Summary App for iOS – released June 2019
    Built with Swift (Apple platforms only)
  • Photo Summary App for Android – released October 2019
    Built with Kotlin (Android platforms only)
  • Photo Summary App v2 – released October 2025
    Built with React Native for iOS and Android

Requirements

As a modern app Photo Summary App v2 requires:

  • iOS 18 or newer
  • Android 11 or newer

If you have an older device that doesn’t support these OS you can continue to run v1 of Photo Summary App forever.

Pricing

I promised that there would never be subscriptions or upgrade pricing.

PSA v2 is a free upgrade for anyone who has already purchased Photo Summary App.

This took a lot of time so I’d really appreciate a positive review on the App Store if you love it!

Feedback / The Future

I believe this already offers everything v1 did and more. I’m not finished yet and will continue releasing updates. Updates should flow faster now that I don’t have to program everything twice in two different programming languages. If you have any suggestions or feedback use the Contact Us form on the homepage.
