I've recently gotten into the realm of photo sharing (despite my lack of photography knowlege/skills and lack of a decent camera) and have found it fairly frustrating and awkward to share my photos with the various different sites I use. I mean, sure, there's the email upload capabilities of some different sites, but getting that set up can be a real pain in the arse. PhotoScatter, an app made by UniqueApps, simplifies the process of uploading to multiple sites at once.

When you start the application, you have 3 simple options; Take Photo, Choose Existing and Set Up. The first time you open the application, you will need to set up your accounts by tapping "Set Up PhotoScatter".

At the time of writing, the application is compatible with 6 photo sharing sites; Facebook, Flickr, ShutterFly, PhotoBucket, Picasa and Twitter (making use of TwitPic). You need to sign in or allow access to each account you wish to use before being able to post images.

The application will tell you whether or not your account has been successfully authorized and you can change or reset account information at any time. The "Use this location" toggle will change whether or not that service will appear in your list of sites you desire to post images to.

Choosing an existing photo will obviously allow you to choose saved images or images from your Camera Roll, while taking a new photo will obviously allow you to take a photo inside the application. Once you've chosen a photo or taken a new one, you can choose to modify your settings by tapping the cog icon. The settings simply allows you to set up your photo sharing accounts. When you have all of your accounts set up, you can tap "Share" , select the sites you want ti post to and add the image details (Title and Description).

Once you've entered any information you want, tap the green submit button and you will be notified that it may take a few minutes to upload your image. This factor is majorly affected by your upload speed. Once the images have been uploaded, you can find them on their respective sites, except Facebook, which requires confirmation before the images will appear.

I give this application a 9/10, overall. It's great value for money at only A$1.19 and it makes sharing images with multiple sites far easier. The only reason I took a point off is that, when setting up your accounts, the UI can be slightly clunky. Other than that one issue, this is a great application for anyone interested in sharing their snapshots with the web.
