I’ve become a bit of a voyeur when solo in London. Eliot was off on a video shoot. There I was alone in a cafe doing my work when I looked up and saw this young thing in front of me. I decided to use the Frontback app on him. All was heaven until I saw my old face. Ouch!

Frontback is an app that utilizes both the front and rear cameras of your smartphone to take a dual image. The app is only available on iPhone now and the app for Android is on its way.

I love this app because I can take pictures of what I see plus insert myself in the scene. I don’t love looking at myself but I think it makes the photo shot more interesting if you get to see the person taking the photo. It certainly is a lot of fun.

The more you use it, the more proficient you become. It’s also quick and easy to share Frontback photos on social networks.

Frontback first uses the rear camera to snap a picture of whatever is in front of you. Then a few seconds later it captures an image from the front-facing camera. The pictures then get stitched together with the first image on top and the second on the bottom.

You are going to love this app. Thank you Re/Code for spotlighting it.
