Spiralens is an Android camera for people who never learned composition. Tap your subject, follow the arrow, and shoot when the ring turns green: the subject sits on the golden point and the phone is level. Guides for golden spiral, phi grid, rule of thirds, symmetry and horizon. The editor adds a golden-ratio crop, straighten, drag-to-crop and a new background blur that keeps your target sharp. Works offline; photos never leave your phone.

@xenit_v0 VERY COOL! And so much potential as well when you look into it. Recently studied a bit up on the golden spiral as well. Then you have golden ratio, and fibonacci. The universe is full of hidden rules for composition and design that no one knows about but can feel when they see a blind test.
@alchemist_studio Thank you! Agreed, most people can't name the rule but they notice when a photo follows it. That's why I see the app as practice: after a while you start placing the subject without needing the arrow.
Does it work in video mode too, or only for photos? And is an iPhone version planned?
@adamvisu Photos only for now. Video needs a different kind of guidance, since the subject and the frame keep moving, so I want to get photos right first. An iPhone version isn't planned yet: I'm one developer and Android is where I can test on real phones. If that changes, I'll post it here.
Nice that Spiralens tells me which way to move the phone to land the golden ratio, instead of just showing me a grid and hoping.

Thanks, that was the whole reason I built it. A grid shows you the rule and leaves the hard part to you. If you try it, I'd like to know whether the ring turned green on your phone.
