kanvas - App Review

Take a picture, borrow a background, annotate and publish.

This seems an App for extroverts who need feedback, and nosey people who want to 'help'; it's great fun.

Now for the ACIDS test:

Aesthetics
In order to access kanvas, one needs to log in, either through a Facebook account, or set up an email and password access.

To compose your first kanvas, all you need do is touch the writing button and use the tools:

Photo
This is where you choose a background which can either be one from your camera roll, or select one from the included standard backgrounds. This includes 'Keep Calm and...'.

Emoticon
Choose one from the list and place it wherever you want on your kanvas and then resize as required.

Text
Pick a font, type your message, place, and resize.

Drawing tool
Choose a colour and a brush type and add a little something to your kanvas.

Microphone
You can even add a one minute recording to your masterpiece.

Once you are finished with these easy steps, add tags and then share on Facebook, Twitter, tumblr.

Your published kanvas now enters the 'other side' and is there for all to see and leave a reaction.

Cost
The App is free and additional backgrounds are available as in App purchases.

Indispensability
Depending on your personality, this might well become an absolute 'must have'.

Dependability
kanvas is an iPhone App which works in 1x and 2x modes on an iPad. It is extremely simple to use and reliable.

Security
Logging in with Facebook involves giving access to your basic profile and list of friends. Access to your photos is also required (obviously).
