Party Party is more than your own personal photo booth. It can bring an experience to life with its easy-to-use stop motion feature—layering your photos atop one another to make a looping animation! No matter how you use it, this app is designed to make it simple to capture the fun of any moment.
You pick how many photos you want to take (1, 4, 9, or 16), and the app will take the photos automatically, spacing them 1 second apart by default. But you can go into settings to give yourself more time if you need. Or you can switch it to manual mode and take the pictures at whatever pace you like! We definitely recommend you turn your sound on, so you can hear the countdown. Oh and you HAVE to at least listen to the other sound options. Our niece Penny recorded a countdown, and it’s AMAZING!
Once you’ve taken your photos, you now have all these options to play with:
STOP MOTION ANIMATION
• Adjust the speed of the animation to your liking
• Save as looping video, perfect for Instagram
• OR save as a .gif file for your blog, Tumblr or website
• Lay out as square collage for Instagram
• OR lay out as classic photo booth strip for printing
• Customize your creation with 17 filters inspired by a bright, modern feel as well as vintage film
• Adjust brightness and contrast to your liking
• Choose from 7 frames inspired by vintage photo booths and film
• OR apply a clean, simple circle or plain white border
So this is tough, because we know so many of our readers have Android phones and would love to support us and try out this app. Like we’ve talked about in the past, developing for Android sadly isn’t as simple as copying and pasting code to the Google Play store. It’s a completely different platform, so you’re pretty much starting from scratch. In other words, it’s a huge investment. And our A Beautiful Mess Android launch wasn’t able to recoup our investment. To put it in perspective, it sold 1/20 the amount iOS did. So right now, Android is too risky for us, but we’re definitely open to it in the future. We’re keeping an eye on Google Play for sure.

P.S. A big, big thank you to Agatha June for helping us design it and to Wes Billman for being one of the most amazing developers we’ve ever met!
