CatchSlide
Read full descriptionHide full description
Slides photographed from the back row always come out crooked, and they get lost between selfies and receipts. CatchSlide is a camera just for presentation slides: it captures them, straightens them, and keeps them together. Straight, every time The camera finds the four corners of the slide as you aim. Shoot from any seat and CatchSlide flattens the slide as if you were facing it head on, cropping away the room. A green frame tells you it is locked, and auto capture can take the shot for you. Silent There is no shutter sound, so you can capture slides in the middle of a lecture or talk without disturbing anyone. Blurry shots are skipped automatically. Organized by session Slides you capture in a row are grouped into one presentation. Give each one a title, reorder slides, or merge presentations together. Straight from Photos Already have lecture photos? Select several in Photos and share them to CatchSlide. They are straightened, sorted by the time you took them, and filed as one presentation. Search the words on your slides CatchSlide recognizes the text on every slide, so a single word you remember brings back the slide from a lecture weeks ago. Sharper text, then PDF Enhance Readability clears shadows and faded contrast. Export a presentation as a study PDF with one, two, or four slides per page, or share the images. Capture from the Home Screen Tap the widget and the camera opens right away. It works on the Lock Screen too. Your slides stay on your device. No account or sign-in needed.

Keep your day on a single card Any photo can become the card for that day. Pick one, write a few lines, and keep it in a collection that's all yours. Damu turns a photo and a short diary entry into an illustrated card that looks printed on paper, and keeps every card in order, day by day. It makes keeping a diary lighter, and a little more fun. β One photo, one day Choose a photo and write a few lines about what happened. Damu reads the scene in your photo and draws it as a single illustrated card. Beneath it, the place, the date and a line you wrote are set in typewriter type. Every day becomes a small keepsake. β Four styles Stamp, Risograph, Editorial and Pastel. Pick the one that fits the day. The same day can become a completely different card depending on the style. It's less like logging and more like keeping your own little illustrated diary. β Browse your collection Your cards stack up in a deck that fans out like a hand of cards. Swipe through them and revisit the days behind you. β Look back by calendar In the calendar, each day is filled with that day's photo. The empty days show too, so you can see how the month actually went. β Find any card Find a card from a place or a single word in your diary. β Home screen widgets See your latest cards without opening the app. The small widget shows your newest drawing; the medium widget shows your last four cards. β A diary only you can open Turn on App Lock and only Face ID opens it. Turn on a daily reminder so you never forget to keep the day. Today's photo isn't just a photo. It can be a card you keep for a long time.
