FEATURES

* INSTANT COLLABORATIVE ALBUMS
Apperture allows you to create and join albums with your nearby friends. When you take a photo, it is automatically shared with everyone on the album so that you can instantly look at photos your friends took of you! No more "please send me the photos we took last night"!

* SEAMLESS PHOTO ORGANIZATION
Organize your photos even before you take them! We make it effortless to create albums and start sharing photos to them so that later you can look at a neatly organized photo gallery.

* NEARBY FRIEND AND ALBUMS
Apperture is constantly looking for events that you and your friends are attending and will notify you when your friends start sharing pictures so that you don't miss out on the fun!

* NEVER LOSE A MOMENT!
Photos that you and your friends take are automatically saved in the cloud and are available any time you'd like to revisit them! Privacy settings allow you to adjust who can see what photos.

* CREATE ONCE, SHARE EVERYWHERE
Apperture albums can last as long as you'd like them to! You can always save an album on your device or share it with people who are not on Apperture with a single click! As an album owner, you control who sees your album and you can delete your photos/albums anytime you'd like. Apperture is available on iPhone, iPad, Desktop and Web so that you can see your photos no matter what device you have!
