Use the app’s built-in camera to randomly capture photos throughout the day or upload shots from your Photos app. In a nutshell, Daycap presents all of your daily snapshots in a GIF that you can share on social media or send via a text message. Have an upcoming road trip in the works? Or perhaps you want to share a rundown of your day with friends on Facebook or Instagram? Tracking these moments just got a whole lot easier with Daycap, a very clever slideshow-making app that you’ll wonder how you lived without all these years. You can then save the final product to your Photos app, share it on social media, or upload it directly to VSCO Grid (a social network by VSCO that serves as a platform for well-curated photos). Next, personalize your GIF with the built-in selection of VSCO-inspired filters that range from black and white to vintage film. You can create a video that’s up to 2.5 seconds in length by holding down the capture button located on the app’s main screen (you'll know that it's filming when a rainbow border appears around your screen). What sets the app apart, however, is its emphasis on aesthetics. Like Boomerang, DSCO is a user-friendly GIF-creation app. Those who swear by VSCO (free)-the industry standard for mobile editing-will flock to DSCO. For best results (as with most apps), practice makes perfect. While there aren’t a lot of bells and whistles, this app succeeds due to its ease of use. To use the app, simply tap on the screen, and voilà! Within seconds, Boomerang captures a lightning round of 10 shots that form a mini video. Use the front-facing camera to capture an animated selfie or, better yet, document a busy street scene or someone doing cartwheels. Share fun tidbits from your day with Boomerang, an intuitive app that essentially transforms a one-second video (which is then looped back and replayed for a total of four seconds) into a GIF that you can then upload and edit within Instagram.
