Any photo into a sticker. Sent transparent.
Pick a photo. The person, pet or thing is cut out on-device, gets a white border, and is saved as a GIF that stays transparent when you send it in WeChat or QQ. No more white boxes around your stickers.
Scroll once, get the whole page.
Record the screen while you scroll and the long screenshot builds itself. Stitch screenshots you already took, in any order. Capture a whole web page from a link. Blur out, watermark or keep just the subtitle lines before you share. Every seam visible and adjustable; nothing leaves your phone.
