## What is Appture?

“I’ve backpacked across Europe and kept track of my progress by taking pictures of everywhere I go and everything I see. Appture helped me tell a story of what I did by showing my friends and family the pictures I uploaded, as I uploaded them.” –Joe A., San Francisco, CA

### 1/5 — Neat Idea but that's about it

*2013-03-12, version 1.7*

I thought the record your voice to a picture that you could also title and add comments would work well for my son to share his commentary since he's not able to read yet. But it's so glitchy I nearly got it to load one pic and one rec and keeps timing out. Back to the App Store I go
