Butterfly

Jun 2022 — Made for iPadOS

Butterfly makes it simple and fun to organise a collection of undated photos—such as those scanned from the pre-digital photography era. Dates are automatically estimated by arranging an album in approximate order and setting the date on two or more key photos.

Tap to set the date of one photo and then again for another. Watch the butterfly effect take place as those in-between are magically date-stamped.

Native AF
A strict constraint of nothing but SwiftUI was established from the start, enabling a slick, scalable interface.
iPad-first
Many iPad applications are disappointingly just scaled-up, unpolished iPhone interfaces. Not this one.
Made with ❤️
Created in Queenstown and Cairns as a collaboration between Fundamental and Southern Software.
