About

7 Frames

Read full description

7 Frames is an app that lets you register one scene a day, from Monday to Sunday, and gradually complete your week as a single exhibition. You can capture today’s scene with your camera or choose an image from your photo library, then adjust its position and size to fit frame ratios such as 4:5, 1:1, 3:2, and 16:9. Registered artworks can be viewed one by one in your current exhibition. Past exhibitions are moved to the archive, where you can revisit, edit, or delete them anytime. You can also create an invitation file to share your exhibition with others, or export a backup file to keep your exhibition records separately. 7 Frames works without login or its own server. Exhibition data and artwork images are stored locally on your device by default.
