Editors’ Review

Fyuse allows you to take multidimensional moving images. It is a new kind of immersive photography that helps you make the most of both the camera and computing power contained within an iPhone.

Pros

In-depth tutorial: The entire concept behind Fyuse and how to use such an app could be a little overwhelming. The images it takes are substantially different than most things you see online, which could make how to use the app very confusing. Fyuse includes a great in-app tutorial that teaches you how to use the app in only a few minutes.

Intuitive controls: The controls for Fyuse are great. There is no fiddling around to try and get the camera in the right position in your hand to access the controls and editing and applying filters couldn't be easier. The editing screen simply allows you to pull in icons to trim from either end of the image, enabling you to get the exact product you want.

No log-in: With all the social aspects to photo and video these days, most apps of this type require you to sign up or start an account before you can even try it. Fyuse has social features, but lets you try the full functionality of the app to see if it is for you before you start linking it to your social profiles.

Cons

Image newsfeed: Fyuse contains a feed page where it displays the images taken by other people. While this is sort of interesting and lets you see what kinds of things can be done with the app, it doesn't appear curated in any way. The images were often quite uninteresting and very slow to load.

Bottom Line

Fyuse is a very interesting new way to take images and share them with your friends. Although the feed in the app itself is not all that interesting, seeing what types of immersive pictures you can take and sharing them with your friends is a great deal of fun and very easy to figure out even the first time you use the app.
