Photo Start Released
19 Dec 2025I’ve released Photo Start, an iOS app for randomly selecting a starting player from a group.
The app uses your phone’s camera to scan faces, then runs a selection animation to pick who goes first. It’s designed for board games, card games, and other activities where you need a fair way to determine turn order.
Key features:
- Face detection using the device’s built-in camera
- Random selection from scanned players
- Reroll capability for multiple rounds
- Swipe-to-delete for managing the player pool
The selection can be triggered by laying your phone flat on a table or tapping the Roll button. The app displays a brief animation before showing the selected player.
For detailed usage instructions, see the Photo Start User Guide.
