Pink Lens

1. Open Pink Lens and tap Capture a rubbing. The live camera viewfinder finds text in the world automatically using Apple's data scanner. You can also pick an existing photo and Pink Lens reads the text in it.
2. Tap a phrase to capture it. The exact text is read on-device. With Apple Intelligence, Apple's on-device language model writes one short note about what it might mean.
3. The capture drops into your permanent library. A small thumbnail of where you stood, the text itself, and the one-line gloss.
4. Search across every rubbing you have ever made by word or phrase. The library grows forever — no annual reset, no Dec 31 reveal.
5. Add the Lock Screen widget to see how many rubbings your library holds. With Pro, by year three you can have hundreds of moments you wanted to remember.

Pink Lens treats the physical world as a permanent text collection. The live camera viewfinder is the primary daily surface, not a one-shot scan. With Apple Intelligence, each capture pairs the exact text with a short on-device gloss. The library is the artifact — it accumulates across years without reset, like a forest you keep planting. No other Studio app uses the live data scanner as the journal mechanic, and no other Studio app pairs world-text capture with an on-device gloss.

Pink Lens reads text with Apple's on-device data scanner on every iPhone that runs iOS 26. The gloss comes from Apple's on-device language model, which is available on iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 16 family, iPhone 17 family, and any iPad with M-series silicon, all running iOS or iPadOS 26 or later, with Apple Intelligence turned on. On other devices, Pink Lens captures and keeps the text without a gloss.
