Question 1

Do my photos get uploaded to a server?

Accepted Answer

No. Your full-resolution photos stay entirely in your browser. Only a small low-resolution preview is sent to the AI caption model if you have an API key configured. Without a key, captions are generated entirely on your device.

Question 2

What photo formats does Shutter Clicks support?

Accepted Answer

Shutter Clicks supports any image format your browser can handle, including JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, and GIF. Any size or aspect ratio is accepted. Everything is cropped to the same 4:3 film frame.

Question 3

Do I need an API key to use Shutter Clicks?

Accepted Answer

No API key is required. Without one, captions are matched on your device using a built-in library. An API key unlocks AI-generated captions that are more specific to the content of your photo.

Question 4

What can I export from Shutter Clicks?

Accepted Answer

You can export individual frames as PNG files, download all frames as a ZIP archive, or record a video reel in WebM or MP4 format that plays through your photos with captions.

Question 5

How does the AI caption generation work?

Accepted Answer

Shutter Clicks analyzes your photo and generates cinematic film-style captions that match the mood and content of the scene. You can swipe through multiple caption suggestions and pick your favourite, or edit any caption freely.
