If you love the infamous iPint app, you'll most likely appreciate the [Ikea](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eureka-spiritis) Skal! app. The appropriately-named Skal! (meaning "cheers") app is one you can definitely bust out on upcoming New Year's Eve parties if champagne glasses are not at hand.

Users can simply choose a glass, find a friend, and digitally click 'glasses,' making the original 'clinking' sound! Both phones capture the moment in a joined picture, allowing you to share on both [Facebook](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wifi-digital-picture-frame) and [Twitter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/createmybanner-1).

Check out the video to see just how the Ikea Skal! app works!
