![]() ![]() That said, I really loved working with Diptic and along with Hipstamatic, it’s right at the top of my favorite photography-related apps. Browsing through the Flickr gallery, it’s clear folks are doing some pretty amazing things with Diptic, so I’m surprised the app itself doesn’t make it easier to share. I was also surprised there isn’t an option for uploading finished creations to Facebook or Flickr, particularly since they include a ready link to the Diptic Flickr pool. I’m glad they exist for quick side-by-side adjustments to photos, but they’re much too basic for any hefty image processing. They’re rudimentary at best and very finicky to use. The only thing I didn’t really love about Diptic were the Effects sliders for brightness, contrast, and saturation adjustments. Shooting with Diptic might even make you a better photographer, since the simple, but attractive layouts force you to think a little harder about how you want the finished product to look. ![]() The interface is dead simple and incredibly intuitive, so even if you’re usually all thumbs when it comes to artistic endeavors, Diptic makes it easy to transform your humdrum snapshots into a polished arrangement worthy of framing. But you can tweak levels and adjust the border before either emailing your completed masterpiece or saving it to your phone. You can also flip and rotate images by 90 degrees, although there’s no free rotate, so if you took a slightly crooked picture, you’ll have to fix that elsewhere sadly. Once your photos are selected, you can move them around for ideal placement using the familiar drag and pinch zoom. You can then either select a saved photo or choose to take a photo through Diptic, and the photo will be automatically saved to your phone. To use, all you have to do is select a layout and then tap on one of the open slots. More than just two photo diptychs (get it?), Diptic comes with 19 different layouts, using up to 5 different photos. This is where Diptic comes in.ĭiptic is a fantastic, simple to use tool for creating basic geometric photo arrangements. But once you’ve taken a bunch of photos, what then? If you’re anything like me, they just languish on the phone until you remember to take them off, and then you just upload them to Flickr or Facebook and forget about them.
