The content detail page is what opens when you tap any piece of content — an image, a video, a piece of audio, or a storyboard. It shows the full media in a viewer, plus everything you can do with it: download it, turn it into something new, share it, like it, comment, switch between versions, and (for your own content) make it public or delete it.

What is the content detail page?

It's the full-screen view of a single piece of content. Depending on what you opened, you'll see:

  • A large media viewer at the top (or, for storyboards, a read-only board of shots).

  • A row of action buttons for downloading and remixing the content into new things.

  • An info panel describing how the content was generated (its type, settings, and creation time).

  • A model card showing which portrait model made it, with a Follow button and a way to try or edit that model. Content generated in No Model mode omits this card.

  • A comments section.

  • An Inspiration grid of related community content at the bottom when the content has a visible portrait model. No Model content omits model-based inspiration.

How do I view the image, video, or audio?

It plays automatically in the viewer at the top of the page:

  • Images show full-resolution in the viewer.

  • Videos start playing on a loop as soon as they load, with the preview image shown first while the video buffers.

  • While content is still generating, you'll see a "Generating" label with a percentage instead of the final media.

Why do parts of the page look like grey placeholder blocks at first?

When you open a finished, all-ages public image or video directly — from a shared link or a search result — the page paints instantly with the media, title, author, date and description already visible, while grey pulsing placeholders stand in for the interactive controls (and for the comments) until the app finishes loading. The placeholders are then filled in place; the media keeps playing throughout.

Everything else shows the usual loading screen instead: private content, content rated above all-ages, anything still generating, audio and text results, and storyboards — the instant paint needs a finished preview image and one of the two standard layouts.

Why does my video have no sound, and how do I turn it on?

Browsers block autoplay audio, so videos start muted. When a video has sound, you'll see a sound toggle (a speaker icon) on the viewer and the message: "Due to browser restrictions, you need to click to turn on sound." Click the speaker icon (or that message) to unmute. The sound button only appears for content that actually has audio. If a detail panel also contains a Base video, its full-screen player uses standard video controls and starts muted independently; changing its sound does not change the generated result's preview sound, or the other way around. Selecting a different Base video starts that version muted; if you return without changing it, the prior Base video keeps its sound choice.

How do I see the content full screen?

Click the full-screen button on the viewer (a maximize icon on desktop, a view/eye icon on mobile). This opens a full-screen preview where you can also download, share, and run the same actions. The full-screen button only appears once the content has finished generating successfully.

What is the blurred "This content is rated…" overlay?

That's the sensitive-content (NSFW) mask. If a piece of content is rated above all-ages, the viewer blurs it and shows "This content is rated…" with the rating level. Click Show to reveal it. Once revealed, you can re-hide it with the eye toggle in the corner of the viewer. Content rated for all ages is never masked.

What do the action buttons do?

The buttons depend on what type of content you're viewing. Each one hands the current content off to a creation flow as the starting point:

For images:

  • Chat to edit — edit the image by describing the change in a chat.

  • Image to video — turn the image into a video.

  • Clone Image — choose a target model, then load the image into that model's Clone Image workstation as the base image.

  • Talking avatar — make the person in the image talk. On desktop it is available under More actions; on mobile it appears immediately after Clone Image in the action bar.

  • Edit clothing — swap or change the outfit.

  • Upscale — increase the image resolution (this one asks you to confirm a credit cost first).

  • Remix — open the remix picker to recreate it with your own twist.

  • Download — save the image to your device.

For videos:

  • Edit video — re-edit the video (change character, style, motion, background, and more).

  • Extend video — continue it with new footage to make it longer (a single continuation, not extra shots).

  • Lip sync — sync the speech to new audio.

  • Clone Video — choose a target model, then load the video into that model's Clone Video workstation as the base video.

  • Upscale video — increase the video's resolution.

  • Remix — recreate it with your own twist.

  • Download — save the video.

For text and audio: only Download is offered.

When you click most of these, you're taken into the corresponding creation flow with this content already loaded as the input. Clone Image, Clone Video, and Remix require you to choose a personal or community portrait model before opening the workstation. Some actions (like Upscale) first show a dialog confirming the credit cost.

Why is an action button greyed out or showing a "not ready" message?

Action buttons only work once the content has finished generating. If you click one while the content is still rendering (or hasn't loaded yet), you'll get a warning like "The content isn't ready yet. Please try again later." Wait for generation to finish and try again. Download and Upscale also stay disabled until a downloadable file is available.

Where are the rest of the actions — I only see a few buttons?

On desktop, the viewer keeps only two media actions beside More actions. Images keep Chat to edit and Image to video visible; videos keep Edit video and Extend video visible. Every other media action is collected in More actions without duplicating those two shortcuts. For completed images and videos, a filled Go live shortcut appears in the upper-left corner of the preview and Go live also appears first in More actions. Both entrances open Live creation with the current media already selected; sign-in is requested first when needed. Mobile completed image/video previews also offer the Go live shortcut when Live is enabled and the media is not masked. This mobile shortcut opens the same source-aware creation flow, in its full-screen mobile layout. For your own content, the desktop menu also contains the Public toggle and Delete.

Mobile media actions remain in the bar below the viewer, with Talking avatar following Clone Image for image media. The Go live shortcut appears separately in completed, unmasked image/video previews when Live is enabled. If there are more than four bar actions, swipe sideways to page through them (dots show which page you're on).

How do I download my content?

Click Download in the action buttons (or in the full-screen preview). The file saves directly to your device. If the file isn't ready yet, you'll see a "not ready yet" message — wait for generation to finish.

Why does my download have a watermark?

Whether a downloaded file carries the APOB watermark depends on your plan and on who generated the content:

  • Free (Nano) accounts always get a watermark on anything they download — their own creations and community content alike.

  • Paid accounts download without a watermark, but only for content that was generated by a paid account. If you download content originally made by a free user (for example community content, or your own content created before you subscribed), it still carries a watermark.

Watermark removal isn't retroactive: anything you generated before subscribing keeps its watermark even after you upgrade. To get clean, watermark-free files, have an active paid subscription before you generate. See Credits, plans & billing.

How do I remix or reuse a piece of content?

Click Remix (also available from the info panel header). This opens the remix picker, where you choose how to recreate the content with a portrait model. Remix is available for both images and videos. The other action buttons (Image to video, Edit video, Edit clothing, and so on) are more specific "create similar" handoffs that pre-load this content into a particular creation flow.

How do I like content?

Click the heart/like button. It appears in the social pill on the viewer (desktop), as a round button on the viewer (mobile), and again in the comments header. Tapping it toggles your like on and off.

How do I share content?

Click the Share button (in the social pill on the viewer, in the comments header, or in the full-screen preview). A share dialog opens with a ready-made message — "I just created something awesome on APOB.AI. Try it out: [link]" — and the link to copy or send.

One catch: if it's your own content and it's still private, you'll be asked to make it public first before you can share it. See the Public/Private toggle below.

How do I make my content public or private?

This is only for content you created. On desktop, open the More actions menu and use the Public switch. On mobile, tap the "more" icon in the top-right of the page to open the options sheet, then toggle Public. Turning it on publishes the content to the community; turning it off makes it private again.

Note: free (Nano) accounts can't hide content that's already public — toggling it off will prompt you to upgrade to a paid plan instead. Private mode is a paid-tier feature. See Credits, plans & billing.

How do I delete content?

Only your own content can be deleted. On desktop, open the More actions menu and choose Delete. On mobile, tap the "more" icon in the top-right and choose Delete. You'll be asked to confirm: "Delete content — Are you sure you want to delete this content?" After deleting, you're taken back to the previous page.

Can I report someone else's content?

The content detail page doesn't include a report button. The "more" menu and delete option only appear for content you created yourself.

What is the version selector?

Some content comes in multiple versions (for example, several outputs from one generation). When that's the case, a selector appears showing the current version's name. Click it to open the list and pick a different version — selecting one swaps the viewer to that version. If there's only one version, the selector is hidden. On desktop it sits at the bottom of the info panel (below the type header and the inputs/settings); on mobile it sits just below the viewer.

What's in the info panel below the viewer?

A header that labels the content's type (Image, Video, or Audio) and the specific generation it came from — for example "Image to video", "Talking video", "Edit image", "Extend video", or "Storyboard" — sometimes with a sub-label (like "Lip sync" or "Edit product"). It also shows how long ago the content was created and a Remix shortcut. Below the header, the panel lists the inputs and settings used to generate the content.

For the video types written from a description (Image to video, Text to video, Extend video), the description shows as one Description card per shot — a single card for a single-shot video, or numbered Shot 1 / Shot 2 / … cards for a multi-shot one. On desktop, multi-shot cards sit side by side in a row you can scroll sideways, each card scrolling its own text. On a phone, the cards stack vertically and start collapsed behind a fade with an Expand button — tapping it opens every card together, and Collapse folds them back.

What is the model card and the Follow button?

The model card shows which model produced the content: its avatar, name, description, type, and when it was created, plus its heat/like count. From here you can:

  • Click the creator's avatar or name to visit their profile.

  • Click Follow to follow the creator (it changes to Followed; click again to unfollow). This doesn't appear on your own models.

  • Click Try this model to start creating with it — or Edit this model if it's yours.

  • Like the model directly from the card.

If the model behind the content is no longer available, the card shows "This model is no longer available." instead. Content generated in No Model mode intentionally shows no model card; the backend's technical generation model is not presented as a character.

How do comments work?

Scroll to the comments section to read and post comments on the content. There's a refresh icon to reload the latest comments, and the comments header repeats the like and share buttons. You'll need to be signed in to post a comment — if you're signed out, the sign-up / log-in dialog opens first. The same like/share rules apply — sharing private content of your own will prompt you to make it public first.

What is the Inspiration grid at the bottom?

For content made with a visible portrait model, below everything else is an Inspiration section — a scrolling grid of related community content made with that model. Scroll down to load more. If nothing has been created yet, you'll see "No one has created any content yet. Be the first!" Tapping any cell opens that content's own detail page. No Model content skips this model-based section.

How is a storyboard shown differently?

When you open a storyboard, the page swaps the standard viewer for a full-width, read-only board of the storyboard's shots. Each storyboard is made of a Brief, a row of shots — each shot a single image with one unified prompt — a shared pool of Elements, a voice model, and a resolution. Above the board you'll see the parameter cells (Platform, Length, Aspect ratio, and Voice model), and a "more actions" menu.

Below the board are two actions:

  • Regenerate storyboard — creates a brand-new storyboard from this one's settings.

  • Storyboard to video — opens this storyboard's editor so you can render it into a video.

Regenerate storyboard shows the storyboard-generation credit cost next to the label, calculated from the creation-time supported Length that Regenerate will submit. Editing its shots can change the current total Duration, but does not change this Length. Storyboard to video doesn't show a render cost on the detail page; it opens the storyboard editor, where the exact video render cost is shown after you choose the render Quality and Resolution. Underneath, the page continues with the type header, optional portrait-model card, and comments like any other content.

No Model storyboards omit portrait-model chips/cards. You can still use Regenerate storyboard and Storyboard to video; APOB supplies its default generation model behind the scenes without presenting it as a character. To learn how storyboards are built and edited, see Create a storyboard, Elements, and the Storyboard editor.

What do the "Generate" buttons cost?

Actions that create new content (Upscale, Regenerate storyboard, Storyboard to video, and so on) cost credits. There's no fixed price to memorize — the amount is shown next to the button, in a confirmation dialog, or in the destination editor before anything runs, and it depends on your plan and the quality and settings you pick. For storyboards, Regenerate storyboard shows the storyboard-generation cost on the detail page, while Storyboard to video shows the quality/resolution render cost in the storyboard editor. Images are priced per image × quantity and videos per second × duration. See Credits, plans & billing for how credits work.

What do the empty, loading, and error states look like?

  • Loading the page: a loading spinner shows until the content's details arrive.

  • Still generating: the viewer shows a "Generating" label with a live percentage.

  • Generation failed: the viewer shows a sad-face icon and "Generation failed."

  • No inspiration yet (portrait-model content): "No one has created any content yet. Be the first!"

  • Model removed: "This model is no longer available." on the model card.

On mobile

The page stacks vertically: viewer, then the version selector, then a swipeable action bar, then the info panel, the optional portrait-model card and model-based inspiration grid, and a bottom bar with comments. No Model content skips the optional model sections. The like, sound, and full-screen controls sit as round buttons on the viewer itself. To make content public or delete it, tap the "more" icon in the top-right of the page header to open the options sheet. Storyboards use a dedicated stacked layout with a floating table of contents, and the Storyboard to video / Regenerate buttons run full-width.
