Stitch (Free)
What’s it about? Send messages exactly they way you want to with Stitch, an app that lets you add sound, text, photos and even motion to your sentiments.
What’s cool? Calling Stitch an e-card app would simplify what it does, because while at a basic level it looks like what you’re creating with the app is an e-card – it has text and a photo and is designed to send a message – it’s more complex and involved than that. Stitch lets you add effects to create motion with your messages, all its text is fully customizeable, and you can even add your own music to create something of an e-card slideshow. When you’re, done you can send the card via email, text, and through social networks such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube as well.
Who’s it for? If you’re looking for a better way to send a card for whatever occasion, try Stitch.
