AI Photo Editor for iPhone and Android

Halo is an AI photo editor for iPhone and Android. Upload a photo, describe the change, get new versions for portraits, rooms, and products.

Halo is an AI photo editor for iPhone and Android. Take a photo you already have, type the change you want, get a new version back in seconds.

That's the pitch. It's also the whole app.

Most people searching "AI photo editor" don't want to generate images from nothing. They already have the photo. They want a faster way to change it — swap an outfit, try a new haircut, restyle a room — without learning Photoshop and without switching to a desktop. Halo is the one app that does all of those, on the device the photo already lives on.

What is an AI photo editor?

An AI photo editor uses AI to change, restyle, or generate new variations from an image you already have. Two neighboring categories often get confused with it:

  • AI image generators (Midjourney, DALL-E) start with a blank prompt and make something new. No source photo.
  • Traditional photo editors (Photoshop, Lightroom) give you manual pixel control, with AI tools added recently.

Halo sits in the middle. It starts with your real photo, and it does the editing work for you — guided by a prompt, not a layers panel.

What Halo does

Change a real photo with a prompt
Upload a photo. Type what you want ("swap this hoodie for a navy blazer", "show this room in Scandinavian style"). Get new versions back.
Try multiple directions fast
The first generation is rarely the final one. Running the same prompt again or tweaking it takes seconds.
One app, multiple jobs
Portraits, rooms, headshots — all in the same install. You don't need a separate app for each. This is the actual differentiator from most tools in the category.
Mobile-first
Halo runs where your photos already live — on your phone.

Prompts that actually work

Say what to change, say what to keep, add specifics if the result drifts.

What Halo is best at

Portraits and profile photos
Try different hairstyles. Swap outfits for a LinkedIn update. Generate a cleaner headshot from a selfie. Make a social profile version that actually looks like you.
Room and space ideas
Upload your living room, try three styles, see which one lands before you buy a couch. Test paint colors. Try a different rug.

When to use Halo

Use Halo if...

  • You edit photos on your phone
  • You make content for TikTok, Instagram, or YouTube and need new visuals constantly
  • You want to try changes before you commit (outfit, haircut, room style)
  • You'd rather have one app for portraits, rooms, and product photos than three

Pick something else if...

  • You need pro retouching with layers — use Photoshop (Adobe Firefly adds AI on top)
  • You want to generate images from scratch with no source photo — use Midjourney or DALL-E
  • You run catalog automation at scale — use Claid or Pebblely
  • You need virtual staging for real estate listings — use Decor8 AI

Why Halo isn't an image generator

A generator is built to create something new from a text prompt. It's great when you have nothing to start from. Halo is built to transform something real. It's useful when you do have something to start from.

The flow:

  1. Upload the photo you already have
  2. Describe the change in plain language
  3. Generate multiple versions
  4. Keep the one that works

Generators are the right answer when you're imagining a concept from scratch. Halo is the right answer when you have a photo and want to do something to it.
