Geohot, a popular iOS hacker, has submitted a new app called 'Reactions' to Apple for approval.
The app captures your reaction while shooting using the front facing camera.
"Previous photo applications only allowed the use of one camera. Or even worse, let you choose between cameras. Disgusting. Here at Reactions we don't believe in choice, we believe in both. Why make Obama president? Let Obama and Romney be president. Let's even let Ron Paul be president too."
Notably, it appears that you won't be able to save the pictures. You will have three seconds to decide whether or not its shared to all your Facebook friends.
"At Reactions, we offer you no way to save your pictures. If you want to save them, you have to share them. After a reaction is captured, you have 3 seconds to hit the unlabeled cancel button, or else your photo is automatically shared with all your Facebook friends."
You can get more information about the app at the link below. Pod2g, another prominent hacker, also recently created an app for iOS called PodDJ.

The only thing that could make sense is that he created a cool hack but he knows that Apple will not let it in the app store so he cut it down for the store rules and maybe we'll see the real app on cydia.

I think this App has potential and yet it is different. Hope that he could use those code, which removes frames around the picture that has taken from front facing camera, and so that image naturally saturate into the other picture...

Great, even LESS choice on how to use an iOS device! And this from someone who helped others monitor their devices so they'd have MORE choices.

It's meant to sound trolly, it is by Geohot after all. Also, this app doesn't give iOS users any less choice, in fact it's the users own choice if the even want to download this app.

GeoHot used to stand for something in this community but now he can't even get a reaction. What a waste of talent. I guess Sony won in more than one way.

Just woooooww! Woke up and I read this. Super app - already feel so stupid especially for me whom takes time to decide. Would have been great if that application targeted to inject its own forever jailbreak code into Apple System.
