About Jodu

Jodu is a collage and scrapbook maker for iPhone. It provides a freeform canvas where photos can be dragged, rotated, scaled and layered with snap guides, and fillable frames such as polaroids, postcards and speech bubbles let you lay things out first and add pictures later. Autosave, undo and redo are built in.

Carousels can have up to 20 pages, each with its own background, and can be exported whole or page by page for Instagram slides, storytelling or recipe cards. Smart cutouts use on-device AI to isolate subjects, with options such as torn-paper edges and vintage filters. The library lists over 800 stickers, 30 fonts and paper, metallic and gradient backgrounds, and you can import pins from Pinterest boards.

Exports are PNG and the listing says photos stay on the phone. The app is free to download with in-app purchases and is for iPhone only. It is listed under Graphics & Design, rated for ages four and up and available in English plus one more language.
