2 open-source projects that already do this job. Free to use - not free to run, which is what the numbers on the right are for.

What you give up either way
- App Store distribution, iOS-specific UX polish and native camera integrations
- In-app purchase/subscription plumbing and platform payment handling
- Any proprietary/trained models or datasets the vendor may use
- Existing user base, ratings, and brand/trust
- Polished multi-style presets and video features listed in the app
An open-source project doing the core job proves a replacement is possible. It does not prove it matches PhotoGenius, and it does not prove anyone has run it for a month. How we decide.
