Free vs Pro at a Glance

Pro Features

📄 Hanging Guide

The updated printable hanging guide gives you a clear install plan:

• Exact measurements for each frame.
• Hook placement heights from floor level.
• Graph-paper schematic for spacing and alignment.
• Frame table with every size and label.
• Installer-friendly reference for the wall with tape and a level.

✂️ Advanced Photo Cropping

Need a better crop than the default placement? Pro unlocks precision photo cropping so you can fine-tune the image inside the frame.

• Crop handles make it easier to adjust composition
• Zoom and pan let you move inside the frame without swapping the image
• Great for portraits where you want a stronger crop point

🎞️ B&W Photo Conversion

Thinking about a monochrome or "fine art" gallery but not ready to commit to reprinting anything? Pro adds a one-tap black-and-white toggle to any photo on the canvas.

• Non-destructive preview — your original photo stays untouched, toggle off to restore color
• Mix-and-match — flip individual portraits to B&W and leave the landscapes in color, or convert the whole wall to see how it reads
• Carries through to exports — the B&W choice shows up in 4K Snapshots and Print-Ready Photos exactly as previewed

📐 Layout Zones

Layout Zones let you reserve the usable part of a wall before Auto-Layout runs.

• Draw the usable wall region once and reuse it.
• Keep Auto-Layout inside the zone so frames stay within the area you set.
• Use it for furniture, vents, openings, and other constraints.

📌 Pinned Auto-Layouts

Generate Auto-Layout options, then Pin the ones you want to keep so you can compare alternatives side-by-side without regenerating from scratch.

• Save a shortlist — pin any Auto-Layout option and it shows up in a Pinned Layouts carousel alongside fresh generations
• Switch between alternatives — click a pinned layout to apply it; click another to swap in a different arrangement without losing the first
• Smart stale badges — if your wall or frame inventory changes after pinning, Pinned Layouts warns you when the saved arrangement no longer fits cleanly instead of silently breaking
• Scoped to the current project — pinned layouts are stored locally per project, so comparing variants across a bedroom and a hallway project stays separate

Free users can still generate Auto-Layouts and apply them; Pinning is the way to keep multiple strong options in play at once.

🗂️ Premium Starter Layouts

GalleryPlanner ships with 14 free starter layouts across Essentials, Organic, Architectural, and Salon collections. Pro unlocks an additional Premium Collections category with 8+ curated arrangements.

• Hand-picked compositions — Premium Collections are drawn from curated Pinterest-worthy arrangements, with non-standard frame mixes and more sophisticated spacing than the free collections
• One-click application — scale the starter to your own frame sizes and drop it onto your wall, same as the free starters
• Great starting point — pair a Premium Starter Layout with Auto-Layout spacing tweaks for a polished finish quickly

⚖️ Whole-Wall Balance

Smart Fill is free and scores photos frame-by-frame. Pro adds Whole-Wall Balance, a composition layer that evaluates your wall as a single piece of art instead of just matching each frame individually.

• Color balance across the wall — avoids clumping all your warm-toned sunset shots on one side
• Composition diversity — mixes portraits with landscapes and detail shots so three identical close-ups don't end up in a row
• Visual weight distribution — keeps the "heavy" images from anchoring one corner and throwing the layout off
• Score Breakdown modal (free for everyone) — tap any Smart Fill suggestion to see how it scored across composition, color, face detection, resolution, and — if you're on Pro — Whole-Wall Balance

🎯 Center at Eye Level

Need a fast alignment baseline? Pro includes a one-click Center at Eye Level action that centers the selected layout around a standard eye-level target.

• Defaults to 60" from the floor, or about 150 cm

• Adjustable in Settings if you want a different standing eye-level target

• Pairs with the Eye Level guide toggle so you can keep a visible baseline while you fine-tune the layout

• Quick starting point for wall composition

• Useful before fine-tuning spacing or moving individual frames

• Works as a repeatable baseline when comparing alternate layouts

🎨 Premium Wall Textures

Your wall doesn't have to be a blank white rectangle while you plan. Pro unlocks 15+ curated wall textures so you can preview your layout against the room it's actually going into.

• Textures for every style — shiplap, exposed brick, light and dark oak paneling, sage green, raw concrete, museum white, warm terracotta, dark navy, white painted brick, and more
• Room scene backgrounds — preview your layout above a credenza, a bedroom headboard, or a dining-room table to get a real sense of scale and context
• Custom texture upload — snap a photo of your actual wall and plan against it, so you can see whether that cluster reads too busy over your wallpaper or paint color
• Stays private — custom uploads are stored locally in your browser, never sent to our servers

Free users can still pick any solid wall color. Premium Wall Textures are a Pro feature.

📸 4K Snapshot Export

Need a cleaner image for print, presentations, or sharing with clients? Pro unlocks the premium 4K snapshot export:

• 3840px output for sharper exports
• Lossless PNG format
• No GalleryPlanner watermark

Free users still keep the standard snapshot export, which is a smaller JPEG with a watermark.

🗂️ Multi-Project Editing

Need to compare options, keep alternates, or work across several rooms? Pro unlocks editing across all loaded projects instead of limiting free users to one editable project at a time.

With Pro, you can:

• Keep multiple active projects without swapping your one free editable slot
• Load shared .gwall files and continue editing them right away
• Compare alternate layouts without flattening everything into a single project

Note: Pro unlocks editing across multiple projects.

🖼️ Print-Ready Photos Export

Ready to order prints? Export your photos pre-cropped to match your frame dimensions in a high-resolution .zip file, with DPI calculations handled for you.

📦 Export Bundle

Need multiple deliverables at once? Export Bundle lets you run your Pro exports together in one flow and remember your preferred selection on this device.

Note: Export Bundle is Pro because it runs multiple outputs together in one convenience flow.

Typical bundle options include:

• Hanging Guide (PDF)
• Shopping List
• Print-Ready Photos
• Snapshot Image (4K PNG)
• Export Project (.gwall)
