Everything you need to explain a photo

PiXplain combines fast photo capture with clear, point-based annotation — built for instructions, measurements and feedback.

Pulsing points

Tap anywhere on a photo to drop an animated marker. Each point keeps its own title and a list of comments.

Instructions, dimensions & notes

Every point can hold typed comments — an instruction, a measured dimension or a free note — so context never gets lost.

Share as HTML report

Export a self-contained HTML report of the annotated photo — open it in any browser, no app required on the other side.

Editable .pixplain files

Send a dedicated .pixplain file to another PiXplain user. It carries the image and every point, fully re-editable on import.

Camera or gallery

Start a project straight from the camera or pick an existing photo from your gallery — whatever is fastest.

Stored locally in SQLite

Your projects live in a local SQLite database on your device — nothing is uploaded, and app updates never touch your data.

From photo to shared brief in four steps

1

Capture

Take a photo or pick one from your gallery to start a new project.

2

Point

Tap to drop pulsing markers exactly where they matter.

3

Add instructions, dimensions and notes to each point.

4

Private by design, useful everywhere

Works fully offline

No account, no cloud. Everything happens on your device.

Updates never touch your data

Projects are stored in a versioned SQLite database that survives every update.

Re-editable sharing

The .pixplain format keeps points editable for the person you send it to.

Universal HTML output

Recipients without the app just open a clean HTML report in their browser.
