Redo, Edit, Animate: buttons under every image

By Candor editorial team · Updated November 10, 2026 · Also in Français, Español

Until now, the next step after an image was a sentence. You typed “do it again”, “make it night” or “turn this into a video”. That still works. But the three things people do most now have a button.

Four buttons under an image

• Redo makes the same request again, for when the idea was right and the result wasn’t.
• Edit changes the image: say what should be different and the rest is asked to stay.
• Animate turns the image into a video, guided by the image.
• Details shows how it was made.

A finished video has three: Redo, Continue (the next clip starts from this one’s last picture) and Details.

The price is on the button

Each button shows what it costs before you tap: 38.7 credits for an image, 153 credits for the shortest video (2 seconds at 480p). The figure comes from the same place as the charge itself, so the button can’t show one price and bill another.

Tapping a button doesn’t skip anything. If “Ask before creating media” is on, which it is by default, you still get the question “Create this image for 38.7 credits?” and nothing is spent until you say yes. Tick “Don’t ask again” and one tap starts it.

Animate, in one tap

Animate is the short road from a picture to a clip. One tap makes the proposal with your image as the guide. On the confirmation you choose the length (2, 5 or 10 seconds) and the quality (480p, 720p or 1080p), and the price on the Create button follows: 5 seconds at 720p is 765 credits. The card also shows your balance.

Videos need a subscription. Monthly is $19.99 for 8,500 credits a month, about 22 five-second clips at 480p.

It tells you when it’s ready

A video takes minutes. A running creation now shows a clock, so a long wait doesn’t look stuck, and you can leave the chat. When it finishes while you’re in another chat, a notice at the top says “Your video is ready” with a View button. If Candor’s tab is in the background, the tab’s title changes until you come back.

Details: how an image was made

Details shows the prompt Candor wrote, with a copy button, and the format, size, length and quality, cost and date. It’s the fastest way to learn what works: read the prompt of an image you like, then ask for the next one in the same terms.

What hasn’t changed

The limits are the same as for a typed request. Every request and every finished image or video is checked before you see it. Nothing sexual involving anyone under 18 is allowed, nor are sexual or intimate images of a real person without their consent. And the free plan is still chat and one image.

Make an image and look under it. To see how images and clips work first, read about the image generator and photo to video.
