Review: Phototastic
With so much focus ar
ound the camera and sharing images on your smartphone, it always surprises me that so many apps focus on adding funky filters and image twisting, as opposed to doing something that’s a bit more useful. So picking up Phototastic to review is a pleasant surprise.

The goal here is to do something artistic with your pictures and build up a photo mosaic, which is then saved as a single image. While you can use Phototastic to take the images, it’s far easier to capture the images using the regular smartphone camera and then select the images from the media library when you can spend a little bit more time on the process.
Because the app hooks into the ‘pictures’ part of Windows Phone, you can also pick any images from any albums you might have. In practice that means all your pictures uploaded to SkyDrive or into galleries on Facebook are available to select and work into your mosaics.
