Developers Of Diptic Release New Photography App Built For iOS 7

The developers of Diptic, Peak Systems, have released a new photography app specifically for iOS 7, it’s called Diptic PDQ for we understand – ‘pretty darn quick’ or as we say over the pond, ‘pretty damn quick’.

The reason for this new release is perhaps best said by the developers themselves, “We’re always studying how our users interact with Diptic. This allows us to make note of their preferences and get ideas about improvement. When we noticed that a chunk of our users create their Diptic collages very quickly, using only a few of the hundreds of frames and features, we decided to make a collage app especially for them.

It didn’t make sense to change Diptic and take away the features valued by users who like to make highly customized collages. So we created a new app that has the same great design principles that have made Diptic so popular but takes a unique approach to photo collaging.

Diptic PDQ is a streamlined collage app for photo enthusiasts who want to create collages on the fly. It features a tight, simplified menu of design options that makes it easy to choose frames and effects quickly. With PDQ, you choose your photos first and then choose the frames you like best for those photos”.

Diptic PDQ retails for $0.99/£0.69 and you can pick it up here.
