AI photo edits, presets & community playground
Sandbox AI Studio is a free iPhone app for AI photo edits. Browse a community playground of one-tap presets — anime, cinematic, figurine, vintage — apply any look in a tap, and save your own. No prompt writing. No account required to start.
Download on the App StoreWhat it is
Sandbox AI Studio turns any photo into something new — without the blank prompt box. Instead of typing instructions, you browse a community playground of ready-made "presets," each one a saved AI look created by a real user, and apply it to your photo with a single tap. Every edit runs through leading generative image models, so a portrait can become a collectible figurine, a selfie can turn into anime, a snapshot can get a cinematic film grade, and a daytime scene can be relit to night — in seconds. Save the looks you love as your own presets, upscale and refine the results, and share them. It's free to start, with no account required.

The difference
Other AI photo apps give you a fixed menu the company chose. Sandbox gives you a living library the community keeps stocked — so whatever look is trending, someone has already made it into a one-tap preset. Sort by Trending, Newest and Most Used, apply any preset instantly, and publish your own for others to try.



How it works
Browse the playground or your saved presets and choose any style — anime, cinematic, figurine, vintage and more.
Add your photo and tap once. The AI restyles it in seconds. Upscale or refine if you want to go further.
Save the result, keep the look as your own reusable preset, and share it — or publish it to the community.
