The title bar nicely integrates with the system status bar and has buttons to re-open the photo picker, save and share a collage, or tweak borders.
In the editing view, you can see collage layouts at the bottom and a live preview of the final collage in the middle of the screen. To pick photos, you tap on them, then hit Done. The app starts from a Camera Roll view that lets you pick photos from your device’s library in this screen, you can take a new photo, or tap the album name’s at the bottom to switch from the Camera Roll to any other album, including shared Photo Streams you’re subscribed to. I’ve never created collages with more than 3 photos, but I think that the layout choices are useful and well assorted. I just needed to create simple collages with thin borders, so I bought PDQ and have been using it for the past week with nice results.ĭiptic PDQ lets you create collages based on 35 built-in layouts that go from simple two-column and four-square frames to more complex grids that can accommodate up to five photos. Apparently, PDQ (a Universal app) is the “lighter” version of Peak Systems’ more advanced Diptic app, which comes with all sorts of settings, textures, and In-App Purchases.
However, I recently wanted to send a photo collage of my dog to my parents, and I conveniently came across Diptic PDQ on the App Store thanks to Apple’s feature for iOS 7-ready apps. I’ve never been into the idea of sharing my photos as “collages”, especially because all the iPhone and iPad apps that promised to make it easy to assemble collages looked overly social, filter-oriented, or just badly designed.
