Would you like to change your photos into beautiful graphic design pieces?
addLib is an application for iPhone that edits your photos and creates a variety of types of design based on educated theories.

addLib mixes the Grid System, a fractal theory, the golden ratio and the Facial Recognition System, and then creates graphic design.
Itseems the layout is made at random, but it comes from the rigorous calculated system.

We respect a variety of algorithm, which was created by masters of mathematics and design, mix the ideas and give functions with the application. It leads to look back the graphic design in the 20th century.

We will add other functions like custom-made stuff and a wide variety of design in the coming version.

Pros and cons of addLib S app for iPhone and iPad

addLib S app good for

It said its well have an update with more desines! Be PAITENT!
Fun app. Worth a try. Could use higher resolution output though.
... the output resolution is now ok! It only needs some new effects/combinations/designs to be perfect :) Federico

Some bad moments

2€ and always crash when I use it !!!! Iphone 4s !!! Whats going on ????
Theres no option to change the strange, random and meaningless text that is pasted on the graphic. Whats the point of having a nice design (although the variations are quite limited) if theres a stupid slogan in the middle of it? Dont buy this. It should be free.
i agree with the reviewer below. does not appear to be infinite possibilities because a lot of the same designs keep popping up and most importantly if a design finally does come up that i like and i save it to my phone which looks good but then open it on my computer it no longer looks good because the RESOLUTION is so incredibly LOW. not a great app or worth the money until they up the resolution to full resolution and give some more control over design choices.
There needs to be a settings button or user input control that lets you choose particular styles, concepts or theme ideas. Or it truely needs to become more random and "infinite" with its design generation. As it stands right now the program is extremely repetitive and the ideas get old very quickly.
The nod to mid-century modernism is cool. The lack of controls are not a weakness in my mind but a strength. Its fun to see what the addlib design machine cranks out. As an art director, its a little spooky to see automated compositions that are often aesthetically pleasing, but its a lot of fun. I hope they keep tweaking and adding compositional elements/variations.
This is a really fun cool app. Its a great 1.0 app and its got a lot of potential. Ive got my fingers crossed that the authors continue to add to it.
