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

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.

I love Pearl! The narration feature is what sets it apart from other apps that are trying to do similar things.

A very slick app, but I really would need (and expected) to be able to sync narration with the photos.

@tomsoderlund 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!

@cornett How about a simplified version of Keynote’s “Record slideshow” - preview the next photo and tap to change, while narrating.

@tomsoderlund 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!
