These types of tools are getting pretty neat. Turn your camera roll photos into really cool videos and use them in your marketing including with social media.

Thank you!

Hi everyone! I'm one of the founders. We hope you'll download our new Pearl app and try it out! :) The concept of Pearl was to make it easy to unlock the power of storytelling by helping you transform photos that you already have stored on your iPhone into narrated videos that can be created and shared in just a few minutes. Our team has been very focused on design, authenticity, and native video sharing. • Pearl has been designed for simplicity and speed, letting you create and share a video on social media in just a few minutes • The primary focus is on authentic storytelling, brought to life by narration in your own voice • Pearl gives you full control over saving and sharing your HD video natively for higher engagement on social media
I love Pearl! The narration feature is what sets it apart from other apps that are trying to do similar things.
Maker
Thank you !
A very slick app, but I really would need (and expected) to be able to sync narration with the photos.
Maker
Thanks for the feedback. We are considering that. We are a bit torn about that feature, though. We want the audio storytelling to flow and sound natural. We've found that people sometimes have a very stilted narration when they are just describing each photo in sequence. But, we do need to experiment with it and see if we can have the best of both worlds. Thanks!
How about a simplified version of Keynote’s “Record slideshow” - preview the next photo and tap to change, while narrating.
Maker
Yes, that is one option, if people select photos first. But, we do allow people to record a narration first, before selecting photos. We had a linear flow in an earlier version and people didn't like it. It felt artificially forced. We might look into a timeline view where you could adjust the photos and their duration relative to the narration. Lots to experiment with to get it right!
Ups... "Your access to this site has been limited"

You should be able to get the app from the App Store. My website has an aggressive firewall due to a hacking attack yesterday. I dialed things up. Got kind of tired of it.
I had this exact same idea last night thinking that could be a killer app. Unfortunately I don't have an iPhone.

GMTA. :)
Cool idea! I thought this would be a great tool for startups to use to create app store videos. Speaking of which... How do you guys not have an app store video? :P
Maker
We do have an App Store video. Is it not showing up for you?
Maker
Here is what you should be seeing if you view us in the App Store from your iPhone.
nope, just five photos, no video (when I view in app store on my iPhone)
Maker
Which iPhone model do you have?
Maker
We're #1 in the App Store for "Pearl" now. Thanks for your support, hunters!
Do you plan on making it available for Android?
Maker
Yes, that's on our longer-term roadmap though
Cool, will be waiting :-)
