Mustaches Find Your Face With Autostachic
Autostachic ($0.99) by Quantic Fox LLC is a light-hearted app for mustache lovers with iPad 2s. Yes, mustache lovers. If you’ve ever wondered which type of ‘stach suits you best then this app will certainly help you out.
Autostachic uses the front camera of the iPad to automatically place a mustache of your choice on your face. Mustaches range from The Creepy Uncle to The Mighty Alamo. They can be further customized by hair color (black, blonde, brown or red) and they can be simple, with plain colors and no texture, or elaborate which shows individual hairs on the ‘stach.
The ability of the mustache to place itself on user’s faces is completely unique to this app. Instead of having to worry about holding still and keeping your face completely in line with the pre-existing mush in most apps, Autostachic eliminates that hassle and makes the mustache photo taking experience just that much more enjoyable. Additionally there is an optional timer with a three-second countdown to provide more flexibility for photo taking.
After taking the photo, the app provides several options for sharing the images. Users can choose to upload photos to Facebook or Twitter, Email or simply save to their iPad’s photo album.
Autostachic is a unique and fun app for all users, but there are several improvements that can be made. Although the mustaches fit the face on the screen, they do not rotate. So users have to keep their face perfectly level for the mustaches to look good. There should also be an option to have more than one mustache per picture and a way to use the back camera when taking pictures. These would be great additions for future updates.
Overall, Autostachic is a simple, entertaining ‘stachtastic app. For only $0.99 it is a great buy.
