Your photos were never meant to sit still. HoloSnaps transforms ordinary pictures into mesmerizing holographic cards — the kind that shimmer, shift, and come alive the moment you tilt your phone. Inspired by the lenticular trading cards you grew up with, reimagined with the power of modern iPhone. Capture a moment, choose an effect, and watch a flat photo gain real motion and dimension. Then collect your cards in a beautiful pocket binder, feel every ridge under your fingertip, and relive your memories with a tap. THREE STUNNING EFFECTS • Classic Flip — Multiple photos that switch and animate as you turn your phone • Zoom — Push in and pull back through your shot as you tilt, for a striking sense of depth and motion • Flip Zoom — The best of both: frames that flip and zoom together for a dramatic, dynamic card SO REAL YOU CAN FEEL IT Every card carries a true lenticular sheen and ridge texture that catches the light as you move. Drag your finger across the surface and feel each ridge with precise haptics — complete with an authentic scratch-and-scrub sound that responds to how you touch it. A BINDER IN YOUR POCKET Collect your cards in a gorgeous trading-card binder. Reorder them with a drag, add captions, fine-tune the effect, and relive your memories with a tap. Your collection stays in sync across all your devices with iCloud — and when you want to show off, hold any card up to view it floating in AR. MADE TO SHARE Send cards to friends and family with a tap — over AirDrop, Messages, or Files. They'll get their own living copy to keep. EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO CREATE • Capture from your camera or pull in photos from your library • Frame each shot with intuitive pan and zoom • Set start and end framing to author your own Zoom and Flip Zoom cards • Add a Polaroid-style caption • Dial in effect intensity, focus, and direction • Save, edit, and re-frame anytime Your memories deserve more than a flat rectangle.

Please update! ### 5/5 — Outstanding!!! *2011-11-26, version 1.1* Great app! Creative, fun and easy to use. ### 3/5 — Save feature? *2011-05-17, version 1.1* Its a lovely idea but us there no way to save to ur phone so u can use the pics as a funky home screen? That would be cool. ### 2/5 — Mildly Amusing *2011-02-23, version 1.1* But why is it a 'holo" snap? It has nothing to do with holograms. Merely views 3 pics with camera rotation. Not a complete waste but not much either. ### 5/5 — Holo....die Waldfee;-) *2010-10-03* Also....ich bin totaler Fotoapps-Fan..... Und dieses App-einfach genial und super einfach zu verwenden! Macht total Spaß die Holo´s zu erstellen... Und der Sound dazu-einfach klasse gemacht!! 5 Sterne absolut verdient.....und für den Preis.....Hammer! ### 3/5 — Not bad but buggy. *2010-07-20, version 0* This is but one more gadget in an ever increasingly large number uf useless iphone trinkets. Overall not a bad trinket. I like it. First, it's not a hologram, it is a lenticular-like image. (lenticular: google it.) It takes 3 images and quickly fades one into the other by tilting your phone. Second, the "take picture" function is buggy as hell. That company really needs QA. I never could get it to work for even one photo. Work-around: take and edit your own 3 photos BEFORE you start the app and importing them. (I like using a short action sequence like blowing a kiss.) Next I would really like to be able to send my completed image set to friends. U can't do that. Lastly what's up with all those "translators" in the credits? Odd thing to list. Was it originally in German or French? Or maybe it was translated from fortran 4! ### 5/5 — Absolutely Amazing *2010-06-06, version 0* Great interface, cool effects, reasonable price! ### 5/5 — Impressed *2010-05-22, version 0* This is a nice way to show 3 pics in 1 frame ! ### 3/5 — Good start to a fun little gadget *2010-04-11, version 0* Fun little photo gadget. Clean and original look and feel. It crashed a few times on me, though. And the little icon showing instructions for tilting yhe iPhone, after you select "preview," don't need to be there after the first 1 or 2 times you use it. And it needs more features, particularly the ability to share finished HoloSnaps with friends. ## Frequently asked questions about HoloSnaps ### What is HoloSnaps?
