Very Good
I try to take a photo every day. It is very easy to take, view, and make the video. Also good if you don’t need to make a video you can keep track of stuff like acne or sunburns. Suggestion: be able to import and export photos. Also should be able to use outside camera. Bonus it also shows you yesterday’s photo under the one you are about to take so you can line your face up.

Love it
This is a great app, and I love using it. All my friends were curious about it and I always recommend it. I especially love how when taking my photo, I can actually line up my face with previous photos so I’m in the same position and the same distance away from the camera. The video is really fun to watch, and I love seeing it grow longer as I continue to use this app. Five stars :)

Very nice app
I’d like to see an effect when switching from picture to picture like it warps or it fades in the face using facial detection. It would present the video with much more drama specially for people who don’t take daily photos like once a month
Thank you I hope i brought something good to consider
