I looked at the Fuzel app last year and found it a nice way to make some striking collages on iOS. A new update puts your images in motion with tasteful zooms, and lets you add music from your iTunes library or use the music contained in the app. You can also select frames and the arrangement of photos or make static collages.
You can create your own own photo arrangement instead of relying on the provided templates. Variations can easily number in the hundreds.
The app lets you determine the length of your video, and changes can reflect the beats in the music.
Making an attractive collage is easy, with intuitive commands and an undo feature. Once your collage is done it can be saved to your photo roll, or shared via Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Flickr and Tumblr.
The app works well, but it is not universal. I saw a couple of crashes using it scaled up on my 3rd generation iPad. It was rock solid on my iPhone 5s. While the app is free, there are a variety of in-app purchases that range from US$0.99 to $4.99. The purchases get you more frames and other graphic elements. When you save your work in the free version, you get a Fuzel logo at the lower right, and it can be removed with an in-app purchase. I would have preferred there be no logo, and the non-animated older version did not have one.
Fuzel requires iOS 7 or later, and it is optimized for the iPhone 5. I can only vouch for the app stability on an iPhone, but you may have better luck on your iPad. As the app is free, it is easy to check.
