At the 22nd January meeting we took a look at two apps. Good Links, a web link organiser and Juxtaposer for making quick image compositions.
Good Links
DaveK demonstrated Good Links, an app for organising a reading list of web pages. The app supports tagging for organisation of links and a clean reader view. Good Links is a universal app (supporting iOS, iPadOS and macOS in a single purchase) and syncs your links between devices using iCloud.
Juxtaposer
Robert showed us Juxtaposer, simple app for compositing images. It includes a Magic Crop feature which uses AI to easily cut a subject from its background. There are also various image adjustment and blending features to merge the background and foreground. As well as your own images, Juxtaposer can pull free stock images from Unsplash.
