If there is one thing that defines mobile apps, it’s the myriad of multimedia and photography apps. While there have been solutions like these on the desktop, mobile apps really take informal digital photography to new heights.
The Windows Store is finally receiving its share of such apps, and one of the first ones that hit Microsoft’s flagship apps repository is
Photo Booth Pro.
The apps allow you to take webcam photos and add all kinds of special effects — mirror, fish eye, grayscale and more.
The official description is short and simple:
“First and only app in the Windows Store that allows you to take photos through your webcam with special effects, like mirror, fish eye, grayscale…and many more!”
This free fun little tool is both highly rated and heavily downloaded. The UI is as Metro as it gets, with bright colors and focus on things that matter. Large mono icons at the bottom provide easy access to all the effects in the app.
Once effects are applied, Photo Booth Pro also allows sharing of photos and set them as Lock Screen.
The app is free to download and use — though a small in-app payment provides access to even more fun, high resolution effects. Photo Booth Pro requires a webcam and works on all versions of Windows 8, including Windows RT.
