Thereâs not a lot I need say about todayâs Best Thing Ever, so Iâll keep it brief.
Manga Camera [1] does exactly what its name suggests, and itâs no surprise that itâs a sudden huge hit on the iOS App Store.
It does a great job of turning the real world into manga comics. It cartoonifies your loved ones into excellent, authentic-looking drawn characters, and superimposes manga text and frame effects on top. Yes, there are a thousands cartoonifying apps already, but this oneâs different, the results are different, and itâs free. (Note, though, that it requires iOS 5 or later, and doesnât work on iPod touch.)
It comes with a bunch of cool manga-style templates but you neednât worry too much about which one to use while composing your shot: after snapping, you can reframe your image with one of the other templates before saving to the camera roll.
It has a couple of other limitations, too. It canât use your iPhoneâs front-facing camera, and canât import photos from your Camera Roll for editing. But who cares, itâs free and itâs fun.
Go grab it now, and enjoy a weekend turning your world into manga.
