Ronevis editor with the Persian word عشق in red calligraphy on a black photo

What it does

Most Android photo apps of its time broke Persian and Arabic letters apart. Ronevis has its own font rendering engine that shapes and joins them properly. It reached more than 150,000 users in its first year.

Its own font engine

Persian and Arabic letters are shaped and joined by Ronevis itself, so words look the way they should.
