First: Roundup Portfolio Apps For iOS

With its high-resolution displays, large screen real estate and inherent portability looks tablet computers like the Apple iPod and Samsung Galaxy as custom made for the presentation of the portfolios of the photographers were.

Not only photographers, of course - they also have enormous potential appeal to different image motifs, including students, brokers, architects and variety of other professionals. For now, at least most of the momentum is behind the development of the portfolio of apps for Apple's iPod tablet made available, but over time, inevitably, more and more applications will be ported to - and for - other platforms.

While the iPod will be implemented with well-integrated app for viewing photos, including first-class slide show function with the option of accompanying music directly from iTunes Add, it does  t have all the customization options allow customization or branding. As result, it is not the kind of AOS application that will impress client when pitching for high commissions during formal presentation portfolio. Her work can be fantastic, but it is presented can make all the difference.

In this article, I took look at eight popular portfolio of apps developed for Apple's ions to see how suitable they are made for wide range of users. For most users and client experience, keep in mind that certain amount of preparatory work is inevitable - to produce everything from re-sizing images pictures or logos for branding purposes. As usual, I would like to point out that this Roundup will not be exhaustive in any way and is only intended as an introduction to the portfolio of applications.

Pad Folio Late is somewhat unusual among apps portfolio, it's free. A stripped down version of the more full-featured pad folio, for $ 9.99 is limited Pad Folio Late, only one gallery, and even then it is limited to only 10 frames so unless you, Adore very picky about your images is this is really meant as taster.

However, if you are sufficiently intrigued to stump up $ 9.99 for the full version, offers great pad folio, Aileen, an intuitive user interface, customizable home-and-splash screens, drop box integration and support for video files, and the requirement stills. There, perhaps, the AOS user interface that really stands out though. The password-protected screen-management is simple but very effective and while the app supports branding, it looks good, even if you don ™ t want to go that far.

Once the card pretty clever placeholder is filled in, this is then used as your personal branding throughout the app. The special feature is not customizable, which is, as such, AOS no choice of fonts or the size or color, but it looks very smart at the top of page and can even e-mailed as calling card from the gallery page. Entire folders of images can be imported and galleries can be hidden.

Individual images can be easily labeled, either singly or as multiples and zoomed even during slide show we also liked the super-fast animation between views. However, there are few quirks There, AOS is no provision in the music with the slideshow feature to synchronize and it seemed no way to get break Superfast preview image to be an option.

I also found what appeared to be an error with the PIN-protected key management. Although was completely stable during most of my tests, on one occasion, the app my PIN number at reset, and denies access to another. According to the developers, an update to certain problems with the power is on iPods filed with ions 5 at Apple. Despite some peculiarities, however, serve to pad folio fast, very intuitive and looks great.
