Flashes App Support
This page is goal‑oriented: instead of listing screens, it shows how to achieve what you want—find inspiration, craft a custom AI design, or preview a tattoo on your body.
Quick Start
▲- 1 Explore Community: scroll the 3‑column feed and tap a design.
- 2 Bookmark favorites: they appear in My Designs.
- 3 Create: tap + in My Designs to Photograph, Import, Text Design, or Generate with AI.
- 4 Preview on body: in any design, tap Preview to place it on a photo, simulate aging, or erase parts.
- 5 Share using the iOS Share Sheet (system-level sharing).
Tip: Use filters—Tattoo style, Aspect ratio, and Keywords—to quickly narrow your search.
Community Designs
▲Browse an infinite 3‑column grid of AI‑generated tattoos from other users. Tap a design to open details.
What you can do
- Edit with AI starting from a community piece.
- Try on body via the Preview button.
- Bookmark to save into My Designs.
- Share using the native iOS Share Sheet.
Find the right designs
- Filter by Tattoo style (e.g., Traditional, Fine line, Tribal, Geometric).
- Filter by Aspect ratio (Landscape, Square, Portrait).
- Search by keywords (e.g., “wolf”, “chrysanthemum sleeve”).
My Designs
▲All your saved and created designs live here.
Create new
Tap the floating + to choose:
- Photograph a design.
- Import from your gallery.
- Text Design to craft typographic tattoos.
- Generate with AI for custom artwork.
Manage many at once
Long‑press a design to select multiple, then Share or Delete. Tap a single design to open details where you can delete, share, crop, or (for AI designs) continue editing with AI.
Create with AI
▲Well‑crafted prompts lead to the best tattoos. Describe the scene (foreground/background, objects). Do not include the tattoo style in your text—you will pick it separately.
Required selections
- Tattoo style: choose from curated styles.
- Size: Small / Medium / Large (larger = more detail).
- B&W or Color.
- Aspect ratio: Landscape / Square / Portrait.
Generation typically completes in ~10 seconds, after which your design appears on screen.
Text Designs
▲Create typographic tattoos: enter text, choose a font, and fine‑tune color, border, weight, and more. Text designs are private and do not appear in the Community gallery.
Import & Stencils
▲Upload your own art from the gallery or camera. You can crop after import.
Make a stencil
From the design detail toolbar, choose Stencil to convert the image. Use sliders to control which parts become black or white. Try different values and invert if needed for best results.
Preview on Your Body
▲Open Preview from any design to place it on a body photo (camera or gallery). You can also:
- Choose a custom background/body photo.
- Simulate tattoo aging (e.g., a 20‑year blur).
- Use the erase tool to remove parts of the tattoo.
AI Credits & Settings
▲In Settings, you can see how many AI generations you have used and how many remain for the current period.
Privacy & Data
▲- Do not enter personal data in AI prompts; prompts may appear in Community.
- Sharing uses the iOS Share Sheet—no in‑app social posting.
- You can delete your designs at any time from the detail view or multi‑select.
Troubleshooting
▲AI generation feels slow
Most generations complete in about 10 seconds. Check your connection and try again. Very large or complex prompts can take longer.
I don’t see my bookmarks in My Designs
Make sure you tapped the bookmark icon on the design. Bookmarked items from Community appear automatically in My Designs.
Stencil looks inverted
Use the invert toggle and adjust sliders until black/white separation matches your preference.
