PhotoDirector is CyberLink's AI photo editor, and frames are one part of its decoration tools. The Google Play listing promises thousands of stickers, text styles, frames and effects, plus hundreds of styles and templates, and an AI generative room for collages, magazine covers and seasonal visuals. The editing side is the bigger draw: object removal, background replacement with a smart cutout tool, an expand tool that changes the aspect ratio in one click, AI enhance for blurry photos and virtual lighting. That makes it a reasonable choice if you want to fix a photo and frame it in the same place. For framing alone it is heavier than it needs to be, and CyberLink does not publish how many frames it includes. It had no live US App Store listing when we checked, so we cover the Android app, and USD subscription prices could not be confirmed, so pricing is pending. CyberLink says it has over 120 million downloads, and Google Play shows 50M+. We compared documented features and published prices.
