Editors comments: We haven't had a new self-timer app appear in the AppStore for a little while now, so when I saw this one I thought I'd give it a go.
The interface is clean, simple and easy to use, and when I first tried the app I was impressed, but sadly the more I uses it on my 3G, the more it failed to detect my face, which is odd considering my head is big and ugly, but maybe that was the problem :)
The voice commands are superb and give clear and precise instructions, and it even says "I can't see you" when it can't detect your face, which sadly happened all too often.
Overall a nice app, but not one I can recommend at this time.
