At start, a randomly chosen photo from your own Photo Library will be scrambled and displayed.

The Progress Bar will advance to reflect the number of correctly placed tiles. The [HINT] button will highlight a tile and show where it belongs using an animated red square. A maximum of 6 Hints are allowed per play. When finished, the gridlines disappear and the photo's date and location will be revealed! Options: To select a new random photo tap [PLAY AGAIN] in the tool bar at the bottom of the screen. To select a specific photo tap the [SELECT PHOTO] button to access the iPhone's library or tap the [CAM] button to use the camera.
