How do I revise a Design Genie design?

Each brief includes a number of revisions, shown in the dock as "left of max revisions left". A revision never uses a brief.

Ask for a revision

1. 1Open the brief's studio from your dashboard's Design Genie tab.
2. 2In the Not quite? dock at the foot, choose Both designs (or All designs), or one design by its chip. Revise on a design's card points the dock at that design.
3. 3Tap any quick-change chips: Lighter, Deeper, Softer colours, Bolder colours, Simpler, Richer, No script, Fewer characters, More traditional, More modern. Something's off opens chips for things that came out broken: writing in a picture, something cut off, odd faces, a white border, hard to read, not what I asked for.
4. 4Type what should change, in your own words, or leave the chips to speak for you.
5. 5Send it. The status returns to Queued and a new round follows, with "Your revised designs are ready" by e-mail when it lands.

What changes, and what stays

• Every revised design comes back as itself: the same name, cover, cover film and characters, unless your note is about one of them.
• Only the pictures your note touches are painted again. New fonts, type colours or wording paint nothing.
• A kept cover keeps its film; a cover painted again gets a new one.
• Revising both designs returns both, each changed in its own right, so they stay as different as they were.
• Words about the people are heard: "real people, not cartoon" turns the design lifelike; "lots of students" gives its cover a crowd.

Every earlier round is kept, so you can still pick from the first drafts.

When the revisions are used up

The dock says so and offers New brief. For a Signature design you can still change the look yourself: use the design, then open the Invitation studio and pick your own picture or one of the ready-made effects. That uses no revision. See Studio basics.
