Twinkle Art - Easily Scan and Digitally Preserve Children's Artworks Twinkle Art stems from our deep appreciation for children's drawings. Drawing is a child's first form of self-expression, capturing the unique interaction between their heart and the world, and documenting their growth. We hope this innocence can be easily preserved, carefully framed, and carried with you. Whenever you look back, you will remember the child's heart at that time. We also hope that every child who grows up will still see in their childhood drawings, not just a hat, but a boa constrictor digesting an elephant. Twinkle Art is an easy-to-use scanning tool for children's drawings, helping you convert piles of paper artwork into light digital images stored right on your phone. Key Features: - High-Quality Scanning: Prepare your child’s paper artwork, scan each piece under good lighting, and save them in batches. - Cloud Backup: Activate iCloud backup to keep artworks safe and permanently stored. - Easy Framing: Choose from a variety of built-in frames and simply enter the details to give each saved doodle the quality presentation of a gallery piece. - Organized Albums: Create themed albums, select the appropriate artworks, and organize them categorically to clearly see the evolution of your child’s artistic interests. - Online Exhibitions: Curate the wonderful ideas in your child’s paintings.
