01

Start at the boundary

Double-tap an interesting edge to center and zoom by 2×. Pinch and drag to refine the composition; stop briefly for the exact frame to complete.

  • Watch the full-frame percentage at deep scale
  • Try several of the 156 built-in palettes
  • Adjust contrast and iterations
  • Save a bookmark before a creative detour
02

The renderer follows automatically

At deep Mandelbrot scales, the Version 3 Infinity Engine will activate automatically. No precision switch will be required. The app will keep the last complete frame connected to your gesture, then replace it with the exact completed view.

03

Capture the result

Version 3 Free will capture the canvas as a PNG. Pro will add 4K, 6K, 8K, and custom-size PNG output, plus unlimited bookmarks, custom and photo palettes, and 3D Look.
