Using other words, a slideshow. Animoto claims the app looks at your photos, listens to the music you choose, and creates a video of the photos with all this in mind. The result is, you get a pretty snazzy video of which the photos and transitions follow the rhythm of the track you choose. <\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve chosen your photos the app displays them in exactly the same way it would if you were moving or editing your app&#8217;s order on your homescreen.
