Have you ever missed a great photo because it took just a little too long to get your iPhone camera app opened up and ready to snap? I know I have. Snappy is a new (jailbreak) camera app that should help to solve this problem – as it launches just about instantly from anywhere in the iPhone OS.
It launches and is ready to shoot in 1-2 seconds – just by tapping and holding the status bar from within any application or even from the lock screen.
I’ve been testing the app out a bit last night and this morning, and it works very well, just as advertised. It launches and is ready to shoot in around 1/3 the time the built-in camera app does, and lets you snap straight back to the app you were in with a simple home button press when you’re done snapping pics.
Screenshots won’t give you any feel for how lightning fast Snappy is – so check out the video demo at the top of this post to see it in action.
Snappy is available now for $1.99 in the Cydia store.
