XmasTree 3D LITE is a playful decorating scene for iPhone and iPad. A Christmas tree stands in a warm living room with a fireplace, out in a snowy yard, or inside a snow globe; you decide what hangs on it and how the room is lit. TRIM THE TREE • Five pages of decorations around the edge of the screen, plus a page of extras for each scene: tree toppers, ribbons, tree skirts, ornaments, candy canes, gingerbread, Santa, reindeer and more. • Tap an item to hang it on the tree, tap again to take it off. Picking a new topper, ribbon or skirt swaps the old one out for you. • Four trees to choose from, and strands of lights in many colors that twinkle on their own. • One of the tree skirts comes with a toy train that circles the tree. • Reset Tree puts everything back to the bare tree in one tap. SET THE SCENE • Three scenes: a fireside room with a glowing window and fire, a snowy outdoor yard, and a snow globe you look into. • A dimmer slider turns the room lights down so the tree lights and the fire glow. • Shake the device for falling snow outdoors and in the globe, or a shower of confetti in the room. LOOK AROUND • View mode hides the menu so you can drag to turn around the tree and pinch to zoom; double tap to recenter. • Save a picture of your tree straight to your photo library. • Christmas music and sound effects, with a one-tap mute. Your tree is saved when you leave and is waiting when you come back. No account needed. XmasTree 3D LITE is free and supported by a small banner ad that appears only while the decorations menu is showing; a one-time Remove Ads purchase takes it away for good. Happy Holidays!
