Turn any of your photos into jigsaws – where will your creativity take you?

Last week we wrote about an exciting new feature in the Nosy Crow Jigsaw app: you can now make jigsaws from ANY of your own photos. Any images saved in the Camera Roll of your iPad or iPhone can be turned into jigsaws and used like any of the existing artwork in the app – you can turn your pictures into puzzles from 4 to 300 pieces.

And on Twitter, Will, our Head of Apps: Engineering, has been posting some of the best photo jigsaws he’s created.

You can turn Paris into a jigsaw puzzle:

Or the New York skyline:

Or the dramatic Monument Valley landscape:

…And even Weymouth Beach:

Will’s made jigsaws from flowers at Kew Gardens:

Bookshelves at the Nosy Crow office:

The inside of a submarine:

…And (because why not?) his lunch:

The GREAT thing about this feature is that allows you to make jigsaws that range from the charmingly simple, as with this bucolic scene:

…To the fiendishly difficult, as with this head-ache inducing pattern:

This update is PERFECT for sharing your holiday snaps, family photos, your children’s artwork, and more. Here’s a quick video look at the new feature:


The make-your-own-jigsaws option is available as an in-app purchase for $4.99/ £2.99 – and once you’ve unlocked it, you can make unlimited jigsaws from your photos. To unlock the new feature, navigate to the Make a Purchase menu accessible from the icon that appears in the top right of the screen once you’ve selected any jigsaw.

And we’d love to see what jigsaws you make! Send us your best ones, either on Twitter to @NosyCrowApps, or by email to apps at nosycrow dot com, and there’ll be prizes for our favourites!

You can download Nosy Crow Jigsaws from the App Store here – we hope you enjoy the app!
