The app makes your device screen translucent by overlaying camera captures on your device screen and enabling you to always keep an eye on reality. The app will enable you to use your phone while you are walking or doing something that requires you to be watchful of your ever changing surroundings. Various image filters along with camera flash can be used to compensate for changing ambient lighting conditions. The app can also save camera captures periodically and continues to run even when the screen is off, thus your device can be used as a dash-cam or a portable surveillance device. By choosing front camera you can see what is happening behind your back while you continue to use your phone. An option to choose between front and back camera doubles the usability of the app.
