## What is Slide?

Shoot 3D photos with your iPhone camera.

Slide is a brand new way to create 3D photos with your iPhone. Compose your shot then move your device in one smooth and swift horizontal motion to capture. Tap the subject of your photo and it magically becomes 3D. Ready to share as a looping GIF or video to Instagram, iMessage, Twitter, Facebook and more.

Slides look best when you shoot a well-lit scene with a foreground, subject, and background. Depth is cool. Layers are cool. Slides are cool. You’ll see.

*2019-05-12*

I really do enjoy the app. Since I’m using a 6S Plus the camera is not as great as users who have newer iPhones. I really though you could use photos already in your library. That would be awesome if you could use your own photos.
