Sketch Me! iPhone app Review

Description Sketch Me iPhone app :

In the Sketch Me! iPhone app you will be able to take your original photos and pictures and then turn them into pencil sketches by applying a simple effect to each of these pictures.

Features:

• One of the best things about this app is that it supports both email as well as Facebook connectivity so that you can share your images and your sketches with your friends and family once you have finished them.  You can also save them right onto your phone in case you want to refer back to them at a later time
• The user interface on this app is also awesome because it is so easy to use.  All you have to do is just use a single finger to be able to grab an image and then move it around on the screen to find the best position available
• There are also zoom functions available on the app so that you can use the pinching gesture to go in and out of focus
• There are a few different viewing modes for the app as well.  One of them is the split screen mode where you can show only half of the picture as a sketch and then the other half will be just the normal photo that was taken originally.  It is shown in the icon
• The app also is pretty customizable because you can actually get into the settings and adjust the sketch parameters so that that you can take an even bigger part in deciding how you want each of the sketches to turn out on your phone

Conclusion:

Being able to turn real pictures into pencil sketches is a pretty cool thing.  Amazing how technology keeps advancing to let you do things like this.  The main wow factor of this app is that it turns it into a pencil drawing but there really aren’t too many other positive features going for the app to make it stand out that much.  It does what it says, but not much above and beyond and that’s why this app only gets a three out of a five star rating from all of the people who have taken the time to give feedback on the iTunes store.

This app has been given a rating of 3 out of 5 stars by people that have tried the app out.  It is rather inexpensive to purchase however, costing only $0.99 to download onto your phone.
