Latest reviews of Chameleon Clock app for iPhone and iPad
It uses the camera to get the background which takes only part of it, whatever the camera is seeing and it doesnt match exactly with the background, like the screenshots try to make you believe.
Its OK but would look more decent if you could scale/zoom-in or out the actual live image. This would allow you to fine tune and match the image it captures to the background.
Doesnt look as well as it could on iPhone. I wouldnt waste my money on it.
This app doesnt really do anything as interesting as the "hovering clock" idea might make you think. It is slow to respond and just plain irritating. Might be fun for free, but not worth buying unless upgraded.
Масштаб картинки и позиция не совпадают с фоном, желаемого эффекта Нет!!! Не тратьте деньги! И мои бы неплохо вернуть!!!! The scale of the picture and position dont coincide with a background, the desirable effect Isnt present! ! ! Dont spend money! And it is quite good to return mine! ! ! !
