Frequently asked questions.

  • Is refern. free to use?

    Yes, all the core features of refern. is completely free to use with some limits. You can purchase Pro (one-time purchase) to remove limits, get extra storage, unlock nice-to-have features, and help us cover server cost.

  • Can other people edit my references?

    No. Only you can edit your stuff. Anyone else can only view it if they have access to it. However, plans for collaborative collections/reference boards is coming soon!

  • Will my images be used to create AI Art?

    No. We will never use the images you upload to train/create AI art.

  • Can I upload AI generated images?

    Yes, BUT it is strongly discouraged. Images can be community labelled as AI-generated. Any image that is labelled as AI-generated will not show up in the explore page.

  • Are images containing nudity or NSFW content allowed?

    Yes. However, we scan every image to see if it is explicit and will blur and put a warning label on it if it exceeds a certain threshold. You have the option to turn off the NSFW blurring just for yourself.
