From finding a save
to making a choice.

Compare saved options and check the details behind the answer.

How it works

The useful detail might be in a frame, the audio or the caption.

  1. In Instagram, Safari or another supported app, tap Share and choose Valin. Tap Open and keep Valin open while it processes your save.Videos, posts, links, photos and PDFs.

  2. Find details you might miss on a quick watch. Valin checks the video frames, transcribes the audio and reads the caption.

  3. Valin extracts names, quantities, timings and instructions from the text and speech, so you can find them without replaying the video.

  4. Return to the useful part without replaying the video. The takeaway, summary, dimensions, instructions and images stay together in one saved item.

  5. All AI processing runs on your device. Your library stays local unless you choose iCloud sync.

Frequently asked questions

What can I save?

Save videos, posts, links, photos and PDFs. Share from Instagram, Safari, Chrome, Threads, TikTok, X, YouTube, Substack, Notes, Voice Memos, Reddit, Facebook, LinkedIn and more, or import photos from Photos and PDFs from Files on your device. Search your saves, read their summaries or ask questions about them.

How does Valin understand videos, Reels and Shorts?

Valin reads on-screen text from video frames and images, transcribes the spoken audio, and uses the available text to pull out useful details. That can include ingredients, instructions, places or ideas. The AI processing happens on your device.

Is the AI really on my device?

Yes. AI runs on your iPhone or iPad. Your library stays local unless you choose to sync it privately with iCloud. An internet connection is needed to retrieve source content, download the AI models and sync between devices.

Can I use Valin offline?

Yes. Once the models and saved content are on your device, Ask, Search, Reading, summaries, recipe extraction and collections all work offline.

You still need an internet connection to retrieve new source content, download models, sync with iCloud or open original websites.

Will on-device AI use more battery?

All AI computation happens on your device. Analyzing videos, transcribing audio and generating answers use extra power, so your battery can drain faster while Valin is processing.

For best performance, keep Valin open in the foreground while it extracts and analyzes new items. iOS can limit background processing. For a large batch, consider plugging in your device.

These models run locally. You can see their download status and details in Settings > Intelligence. An internet connection is needed for the initial model downloads.

Do I need an account?

No Valin account is needed. Share from the apps you already use, or import photos and PDFs from your device.

Are there any limits to what I can save?

Most saves work as expected. Some private posts or content behind a sign-in or subscription may not be accessible to Valin.

Where do the answers come from?

From your own saved material. Ask includes numbered citations and source cards so you can check the original context. AI can make mistakes. Open a citation to check the source.

Can I sync my library across devices?

Yes. Turn on Sync with iCloud in Settings > Privacy on your devices. Sync is optional and uses your own iCloud account. AI still runs on your device.

Videos and files over 20 MB stay on the device where you saved them. An internet connection and available iCloud storage are needed for syncing.

Can I bring in saves I already have?

Yes. Import Instagram saved posts and collections, or import an export of your Safari bookmarks and Reading List. Start in Settings > Saves > Import. See the import options.

How can I try it?

Requires iOS 26 or iPadOS 26 or later and a compatible device with at least 8 GB of memory. That includes iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max, newer compatible iPhones including iPhone Duo, and compatible iPads. Install the beta through TestFlight.
