How often have you squinted to read the proverbial fine print, or wished that you could zoom in on the detail of a photograph or document? With the LookCloser app installed on your iPod Touch or iPhone device you can convert the on board camera into a powerful magnifying glass.

The LookCloser app allows the user to select from original to five times the normal size. This means that labels, objects, and print of any size are no longer illegible. Not only does the app really zoom in clearly and effectively, but the screen automatically centers the object being looked at. For instance, if the camera is mounted in an off-center position it could be somewhat difficult to center the image on the screen, but this app has the Intellicrop feature that intuitively centers the object on the display.

In addition to a real-time zoom, there is the Study feature that takes a sharp image of the zoom and allows the user to scroll around the display and study the object intensely without remaining at a hovering position above it or in front of it.

There are many high-quality photographic apps for those hoping to take close-up pictures, but the LookCloser app is designed exclusively to help the user read text and see images in real-time and is not strictly a photographic feature.

The cost for the app is $2.99 and any updates will be available entirely free of cost. LookCloser operates with iPhone and iPod Touch devices.

If you find that you could use a pocket magnifying glass on a regular basis, or if you just like to read the fine print, this is an ideal app to acquire immediately.
