Why AI Detector?
AI Detector is an iOS app for checking whether an image may have been generated by artificial intelligence. It gives you a clear confidence score so you can make a faster call before sharing, publishing, grading, or trusting a photo.
Use it as a practical verification signal for AI-generated photos, synthetic portraits, deepfake-style images, and suspicious social media posts. No detector can prove image origin with perfect certainty, so results are most useful alongside source checks, context, and visual review.
The workflow is built for iPhone: import from Photos, Files, or camera, review the score, and keep recent checks organized in history.

Read guide →Frequently Asked Questions
How do I detect AI-generated images?
Check the image for inconsistent text, lighting, anatomy, and background details, then use provenance or reverse image search. An AI image detector can add a probability score, but no single check proves where an image came from.
See the seven-step image check →How accurate are AI image detectors?
Accuracy varies by generator, image quality, compression, cropping, and the detector training set. Treat the result as one signal and verify important images with their original source, Content Credentials, and a reverse image search.
Read about accuracy and limits →Can an AI image detector be wrong?
Yes. Edited or heavily processed real photos can produce false positives, while images from new generators can be missed. Mid-range scores deserve extra checking rather than a firm real-or-AI label.
Learn how to read detector scores →Does AI image detection work on screenshots?
A screenshot can still be checked, but rescaling and compression may remove some of the patterns a detector uses. When possible, check the original file and compare the result with source and provenance evidence.
See common detector failure cases →Is this a deepfake detector?
AI Detector can review synthetic portraits and deepfake-style still images for signals associated with AI generation. It does not analyze video, and its score should be combined with source and context checks.
Learn how to verify suspicious images →How can I check a photo for AI on iPhone?
You can inspect the photo manually, upload it to the free checker in Safari, or import it into AI Detector from Photos, Files, or the camera. The app returns a color-coded confidence score and keeps a history of recent checks.
Follow the iPhone steps →Are uploaded images stored?
No. The web checker holds the image only while it sends the check to the detection service, and it does not write the image to site storage or logs. The iOS app listing states that analysis is deleted after processing.
Try the private web checker →Is AI Detector free?
The iPhone and iPad app is free to download, with unlimited checks available through a weekly or yearly subscription. The web checker lets you check a photo without creating an account.
