Our App Of The Day – Photoloupe
A unique experiment in using the gyroscope or accelerometer in a fun new way. Simply move your device to scroll around and zoom into your photos. Instead of being limited to the size of your screen Photoloupe lets you view them life size or larger.
This is an excellent app that’s just been updated. You can pick it up here for $0.99/£0.69/download
Take photos with the app, import from your library, via USB, the web or even dropbox, then using Photoloupe’s unique one-handed Interface you can pan, scroll, and zoom in or out of any scene, enjoying your photos (or any image) like you are looking ‘through’ your device and into another world.
