Oggl allows camera roll imports.
|
Hipstamatic's Oggl has made a bold move for the ordinary. The (relatively) new photo sharing social network had previously only allowed photos taken in Oggl or Hipstamatic to be uploaded, but now Oggl is allowing any high-resolution photos from your iOS device's camera roll in.
Many fans of Oggl are upset by the change. One user posted a review in the iOS app store, saying "Oggl just went from being a classic Hipstamatic app to a regular old filter app in just one update."
On top of the new camera roll uploads, users will now also be able to crop and scale photos within Oggl.
