Handfree Selfie Apps

The GoCam App Turns Selfies into Portraits Through Gesture Control

If you're into the selfie movement, chances are you'll find the GoCam app pretty handy next time you take a picture of yourself. This photo app helps you to take handsfree selfies so you look natural and pose-free.

Developed by Swedish company Crunchfish, the GoCam app hopes to revolutionize how people interact with the ritual of taking selfies. The GoCam app uses gesture control to help smartphone users click the camera button on their phone handsfree to snap a pic. You begin by hovering your palm in front of the camera till the icon turns green. Then make a fist to activate the self timer and the camera will automatically snap a picture of you. Users have a range of up to ten feet to take the perfect photo.
