Let's be honest, not everyone has their own photographer at the rate, but everyone wants to have the perfect photo of yourself to share it on social media, send to parents or use on dating apps and you don't want to bother someone every time to help with it. Just ask the app to do it, it never gets tired :) App provides custom camera to take photos with the specified interval. You can handle device in your hand and use different angles or put it somewhere to be focused on you and app will make as many photos as you want automatically. This makes it possible to take a picture of yourself on your own and choose only the perfect photos from the many taken. All photos are initially saved in internal app's memory and grouped into photosets to not get mixed with your device gallery photos. Photosets and photos can be conveniently managed such as save to gallery, delete, share etc. Camera has all needed features to take the perfect selfie: autofocus, configuration of photos interval in seconds and minutes, lock of screen sleep when camera is active, maximum image quality, disable or enable shutter sound, you can switch between all camera lens direction (for example between back and front cameras), flash mode. UI is easy to use, built using material design and has support of dark mode to provide nice looking and convenient interface.
