Read full descriptionHide full description
Make a photo that moves. Wigglegram guides you through five quick viewpoints of a person, pet, object, or small scene, then turns them into a playful looping animation. Move your iPhone in any direction or change its angleβthe app captures each distinct view for you. Shape the result: - Use the rear or selfie camera - Light the scene with the optional rear-camera flashlight - Crop every frame individually - Play the loop forward, in reverse, or with a bounce - Tune the playback speed - Choose Original, Classic 400, Flash 800, Sunfade, or Mono 400 film looks - Adjust the strength of the film treatment - Name, revisit, and re-edit projects stored on your iPhone Share it anywhere: - Export as an animated GIF or MP4 video - Save directly to Photos or open the system share sheet - Preview the small Wigglegram mark included on free exports before exporting Capture, editing, rendering, and project storage stay on your device. No account is required. Wigglegram does not upload your camera frames or projects to a cloud service. The free version includes a weekly allowance for new projects. A Wigglegram Pro subscription or one-time Lifetime purchase unlocks unlimited new projects and clean exports without the Wigglegram mark. Existing projects remain editable. Camera capture requires an ARKit-compatible iPhone running iOS 17 or later. Selfie capture depends on device support.

Parallaxly
Read full descriptionHide full description
Turn the frames you already have into a wigglegram β an aligned, looping GIF or video where your subject stays still and the world around it rocks in 3D. Parallaxly starts from frames, not from the camera. Import a scan from a multi-lens film camera (the frames side by side on one strip), or 2 to 6 photos taken a small step apart. The app finds the frames, lines them up on your subject and plays the loop right away. β’ SPLITS YOUR SCAN β one scan with 2, 3 or 4 frames side by side is split automatically at the gaps between frames. Adjust any split line, or change the number of frames. β’ ALIGNS ON YOUR SUBJECT β tap the point that should stay still (or let the app pick one). Every frame is registered on that point to a fraction of a pixel, so the subject holds steady while the background and foreground move. Edges that aren't in every frame are cropped away, so the loop never shows an empty border. β’ EVENS OUT EXPOSURE β film frames scanned one by one differ in brightness and color. Match exposure brings every frame to the same look, so the loop doesn't flicker. β’ STRAIGHTENS HAND-HELD SHOTS β an optional correction for a small tilt between phone photos. β’ YOUR LOOP, YOUR WAY β back and forth (1-2-3-2-1) or a straight loop, speed from 40 to 400 ms per frame, and crops for posts and stories: original, 1:1, 4:5 and 9:16. Reorder or remove frames at any time. β’ GIF OR MP4 β a GIF that loops forever, or an H.264 video that repeats the loop for about 6 to 10 seconds, so it plays smoothly where videos don't loop on their own. Save to Photos or share. β’ PRIVATE β everything happens on your device. No account, no upload. Works with scans from multi-lens film cameras such as the Nishika N8000, Nimslo 3D and Reto3D, from any stereo pair, and with photos from your phone: take 2 or 3 shots of a subject, stepping a few centimeters sideways between them. What it doesn't do: it doesn't invent depth. You need at least two frames taken from slightly different positions; a single photo can't become a wigglegram here. Importing, aligning and the animated preview cost nothing. A one-time purchase unlocks exporting the GIF and MP4 files. Questions: overlapmarr@gmail.com
