Tinrocket Releases This for iOS
April 6, 2016
Beautifully designed, with a clean and minimal interface, This lets users tell stories and give context to their photos in a quick, fun, and engaging way.
Designed with one font, three color settings (auto, black, or white), and three font size options (four for iPad devices), labels are quick and easy to make. The minimal design quietly complements the photo without distracting from the image or its narrative.
“We designed the UI and the label options to be clean and simple. It suits our design aesthetic and also lets the user really focus on their image and the story they want to tell,” says Tinrocket founder, Balestrieri.
In addition to color and size options, This ships with seven expressive pointers (dot, arrow, circle, x, heart, line, dotted line). A simple tap toggles between them, making it a breeze to quickly add personality and detail to any photo.
Balestrieri notes that while This is a traditional annotation tool, it can also be used “to share details that wouldn't normally be obvious. By quickly adding a personalized label, photos are instantly transformed into meaningful stories."
With three successful apps (including the photo app
sensation, Waterlogue) and over 1.25M downloads to date,
Balestrieri is excited to add This to Tinrocket’s stable of apps.
“This is a natural addition to our family of apps. While
Waterlogue, Percolator and Popsicolor transform photos into
works of art, This allows users to tell the story behind those
photos. It lets their photos speak for themselves.”
