Add features to Flipside Camera

Flipside Camera

Flipside Camera is a simple camera application used to take two images in a split-screen format. Using the back camera and front camera in one picture is the main strength of this application. The application is very easy to use.

Proposal

After using the application, I noticed the camera will be better with added features. I will like to suggest the inclusion of the following features:

• Zoom feature: Zoom is used to magnify images on devices. It could be Zoom in (represented as +) or Zoom out (represented by -). In this camera a user should be able to magnify images before and after the image has been taken, this is done according to users preference.

• Watermark or Text feature: The camera takes two pictures in one, a text or watermark feature should be added to the application so that users can easily caption or type on their picture. Also users can put their tags or date and time on pictures using this feature.

• Resize feature: This feature is used to change the size (length and width) of an image before the picture is saved. This could be in form of a crop feature, where users can cut a portion of the picture that is needed.

Mockups / Examples

The image below is an edited screenshot of the application showing where the zoom and text/watermark feature can be positioned:

As shown in the image when Zoom In (+) is clicked, the image enlarges. When Zoom out (-) is clicked, the image shrinks.

Benefits

The features listed above are important for camera applications. Users will have a more option in the application. These features will appeal to a lot of users. The text feature will be important when a users is trying to put a signature or a tag on a picture. Also the resize and zoom feature will be essential for users in adjusting pictures according to their taste.
I believe these features will boost and improve the application positively.
