here's a direct app store link, if anyone wants to try the iPhone app immediately: <a href="https://apps.apple.com/us/app/draw-things-ai-generation/id6444050820" rel="nofollow">https://apps.apple.com/us/app/draw-things-ai-generation/id64...</a><p>congratulations to liuliu on the launch!
This is absolutely incredible. It takes about 45 seconds to generate a whole image on my iPhone SE3 - which is about as fast as my M1 Pro macbook was doing it with the original version!
Extreme respect to the developer for not including the "industry standard" clientside tracking/analytics/phone-home in this app. The fact that this runs locally on-device and <i>doesn't send any information to anyone anywhere</i> about what you're doing on your local device is wonderful.<p>All apps used to be like this, and now the ones that actually respect user privacy are a rare and glorious exception. Thank you!
This is cool and looks like a great way to drain my phone battery :)<p>I just used the prompt "A person looking at their phone in amazement" and got a good picture.<p>Beware that on startup the app downloads almost 2 gig of data.
This is super cool. I just tried the default prompt on my iPhone 13 with the image size set to 768x512 and using the 3D Model (Redshift v1) and it just crashed the whole phone and restarted. Just like when I get BSOD's at work on my Windows GPU desktop :)
This is some impressive work.<p>You might like to look at the work HuggingFace has been doing (on non-iOS versions). They can run it in under 1GB RAM:<p>> If is also possible to chain it with attention slicing for minimal memory consumption, running it in as little as < 800mb of GPU vRAM<p><a href="https://huggingface.co/docs/diffusers/optimization/fp16#offloading-to-cpu-with-accelerate-for-memory-savings" rel="nofollow">https://huggingface.co/docs/diffusers/optimization/fp16#offl...</a>
It works extremely fast on an iPad Pro M1 (kind of expected, but it's _impressive_) although the app is built as "iPhone only", and strangely enough the iPad is cropping the upscaled iPhone app so the lower bar of image controls don't show at all, which is a pity
Could in-memory compression used to bring down the RAM requirements?<p>There are some performance compressors like Blosch tuned for this:<p><a href="https://www.blosc.org/pages/blosc-in-depth/" rel="nofollow">https://www.blosc.org/pages/blosc-in-depth/</a><p>“Faster than memcpy” is the slogan.
Unstable trying with 10 iterations on 348x348 on iPad 9th Gen <a href="https://support.apple.com/kb/SP849?locale=en_US" rel="nofollow">https://support.apple.com/kb/SP849?locale=en_US</a>. Looks cool tho!
Congrats on the release!<p>I gave this and other available applications a try and I don’t understand what people see in ai image generation.<p>A simple prompt generated a person with 3 nostrils, 7 squished fingers, deformities everywhere I look, it just mashes a bunch of photographs together and generates abominations.<p>Pay close attention to generated models and you will find details which are simply wrong.<p>What is the use case that I’m missing?
Any tips on how you “ If the face is cropped, now I know how to use the inpainting model to fill it in. If the inpainting model doesn’t do its job, you can always use a paint brush to paint it over and do an image-to-image generation again focused in that area.” using the app?
on my iPhone 13, generates 384x384 images in under a minute.<p>discovered they have stable diffusion 1.4,1.5, waifu diffusion(Anime), redshhift(3d model) and other models.<p>iPhone becomes warm after couple of runs and starts draining battery, so do it while connected to charger.
Default prompt gives me an arm, or feels like a crop of a full photo (iPhone 11, iOS 16.1) <a href="https://files.catbox.moe/ivy15m.PNG" rel="nofollow">https://files.catbox.moe/ivy15m.PNG</a>
Even though I understood very little of that it was still wild fun reading it. I'm glad such wizards exist, because I and most people I know certainly don't qualify.
On a related note, has anyone been able to utilize Apple silicon GPUs? Running CPU-only is incredibly slow (and sad, since i've got these Apple accelerators idle!)
Is there any option to set so that every image is automatically saved, and not to camera roll, but to the local app folder (same folder that contains this apps data)
This looks so cool! Unfortunately, my 16.1 11pro is crashing before an image can be generated, let me know if I can do anything to debug/test this.
I have tested the app on my old iPhone XS Max, it takes less than 3 mins for an image.<p>And also can choose a model, steps, scale, and sampler!<p>Thank you for your great work!
the developer is about to have a MASSIVE hosting bill<p>the download restarts from 0% if the app is sent to the background, as there does not seem to be a download manager. This is especially problematic for the large 1.5gb file.
i have an ipad. the regular non air/pro/m1 one and the app installed and when i run it, it says "could be device incompatibility" and subsequently crashes
This is amazing. I'm kind of surprised that it doesn't have an NSFW image blocker. I want to be able to generate NSFW images but it probably should have one enabled by default.
Update: Draw Things uses “One-time photo selection” which according to Settings > Privacy & Security > Photos “Even if your photos were recently shown to you to select from, the app did not have access to your photo library.” Still, I didn’t realize apps could save to Photos without explicitly asking permission.<p>I don’t recall giving “Draw Things” permissions to access my photo library, yet the app is able to save to my photo library without prompting and able to read existing images.<p>I may have misunderstood what permissions apps should ask for when saving to the photo library.
Meh… 2gb download only to try “image of unicorn pooping” to get the lamest results ever. If I can’t amuse my 5 yr old with this AI it’s nonsense.<p>It transcribed as “image of unicorn poo ping” in tags :(
