Written on
Chapter 1: Introduction to Niji・Journey
Let's dive into the remarkable Niji・Journey, MidJourney's inaugural officially sanctioned mobile application, designed to make image creation both easier and more enjoyable!
The dedicated Niji Team, a branch of MidJourney, has just launched the Niji・Journey app for Android and iOS. This innovative application allows users to generate images in both the anime-focused Niji V4 and V5 styles, as well as the standard MidJourney V4 and V5, all from the convenience of their mobile devices. The app features an exceptionally intuitive interface and impressive social sharing capabilities!
Section 1.1: The Need for a Mobile Application
Did you know that approximately half of MidJourney's user base utilizes their mobile devices for image generation? In today's world, smartphones are essential for many. However, creating AI art on a mobile can be quite challenging compared to using a laptop.
Subsection 1.1.1: Mobile Challenges
Typing on mobile devices can be cumbersome, which is evident from the common use of "auto-correct." When it comes to generating AI art, users must input prompts that include detailed descriptions and various parameters. A single typo could lead to unexpected results, which can be frustrating.
The Niji・Journey team has effectively tackled these text input challenges by designing a mobile app that incorporates numerous mobile-friendly features. I was genuinely impressed by how seamlessly I could create images with this app.
The first video showcases how MidJourney's new mobile app simplifies the process of generating images, making it accessible and enjoyable for users.
Section 1.2: Understanding the Niji Model
In case you’re unfamiliar with MidJourney Niji, it is a collaboration between MidJourney and Spellbrush, specifically optimized for anime and illustrative styles. The Niji model possesses a wealth of knowledge about anime aesthetics and excels in creating dynamic scenes and character-driven compositions. Users can select from five distinct Niji styles in the Niji V5 model: Cute, Expressive, Scenic, Default, and Original.

1. User-Friendly Interface
The app simplifies image generation with intuitive button options, allowing users to easily switch between models, styles, aspect ratios, and more without needing to type lengthy prompts.
2. Image Variations and Zoom Features
Once an image is generated, you can easily create new variations and use the popular "Zoom Out" feature, just like on the Discord platform.
3. Prompt Creation Made Easy
The Niji Journey app streamlines prompt creation with user-friendly text tools. Copying entire prompts, partial prompts, or even prompts from other users is a breeze.
4. Style Quiz for Personalization
Not sure which Niji style suits you best? The app includes a quiz to help identify your preferred aesthetic based on your selections from various images.
5. Community Interaction
The Niji・Journey app offers exciting social features, including a LIVE feed for browsing real-time image generations from the community. This functionality provides a wealth of inspiration for your own creations.
✨ Conclusion
After experimenting with the Niji・Journey mobile app, I was thoroughly impressed by its user-friendly design and the plethora of creative possibilities it offers. The community features are particularly inspiring, and the app is a must-try for all MidJourney enthusiasts.
David Holz, the founder of MidJourney, has encouraged all fans to explore the Niji・Journey mobile app. The Niji・Journey team also plans to integrate advanced Discord features in the future, such as the popular "Vary (Region) Inpainting" option. Let’s look forward to these exciting updates!
