Flashback Photo Shuffle
Read full descriptionHide full description
You know how your iPhone has like 47,000 photos in it? And you never look at any of them? And then you're bored at the airport and you think "I should look at some old photos" and then you open your camera roll and scroll for 3 seconds and give up? Flashback fixes that. This app lets you take a trip down memory lane by... shuffling your photos. Sounds simple, right? I thought so too. And yet, I couldn't find a photo shuffle app that wasn't garbage—they all had annoying "features" like sound effects or a giant "Shuffle" button you had to press every time you want to see a new photo. So I made Flashback. It's simple: 1. Choose an album to shuffle, or shuffle all photos 2. Tap the right side of the screen to show the next photo 3. Tap the left side of the screen to show the previous photo 4. There is no step 4 You can also add simple transitions between photos (fade or slide), mark photos as favorites, and share photos. There's also a basic editor with cropping and rotation, so when you come across a photo that needs to be flipped or trimmed, you can make the fix right in the app.
Ninja Slideshow

Ninjart Slideshow is a player app for displaying artworks as a full-screen slideshow at exhibitions and galleries. Just load an artwork list made in Excel together with your image files, and your works are shown large, one after another. Artwork data is based on four core fields—artwork title, image file name, artist name, and X (formerly Twitter) account name—and you can optionally add a date. You can export an Excel template from within the app, fill it in with any spreadsheet app, and load it back in directly. Supported image formats are PNG, JPG, JPEG, WebP, GIF, and BMP. The display is fully customizable. You can set the switch interval (1–60 seconds), the transition (instant / fade / crossfade / slide), the background color, the font / text size / color / background of the title and artist panels, the position of the date badge, and the position and size of the QR code that links to the artist's X account. During playback, in addition to auto-advance, you can move to the previous or next artwork by tapping the left or right side of the screen, and you can pause and resume. Settings can be exported and imported as a JSON file, so you can reuse them on another device or for your next exhibition. This app is designed local-first. The artwork data and settings you load are stored on your device, and no account registration or sign-in is required. No data is ever sent to the developer's servers. Key features: - Bulk loading of an Excel artwork list and images - Export of an artwork template (Excel) - Full-screen slideshow playback (auto-advance / manual advance / pause) - Transitions (instant / fade / crossfade / slide) - Detailed customization of the title and artist panels - Date badge display - QR code linking to an X account - JSON export / import of display settings - iPhone / iPad support, screen kept awake during playback This app is a display tool for exhibitions and presentations.
