23 Mobile things #15 - Infographics

I chose i Visual Info Touch Lite for this Thing!! I Visual Info Touch is designed specifically for the tablets, i Visual Info Touch allows you to create infographics within minutes. Your graphics can include diagrams, text, and photos, and there is a large objects library to include in your designs. I am including the instructions for getting started. This app is amazing and so fun and easy to use!!! Getting started 1.Download and open the app and you’ll be asked to either watch the tutorial or create an infographic. We recommend you watch the tutorial and then create an infographic. 2.After you click the Create Infographic button you’ll see a blank page with some icons on the top. The icons allow you to add background colors, shapes, text, and to save the infographic to your camera roll. 3.There is also the option to buy the full version of the app, which gives you more designing options. Here are some screenshots to get you started. When you open the app, you’ll be asked to either watch the tutorial or create an infographic, like you’ll see here (click to make it larger):
After you click Create Infographic, you’ll be brought to a blank slate. You can add shapes and change their size and color, as you’ll see here (click to make it larger):
And you can change the background, though there aren’t that many options, which you can see in this screenshot (click to make it larger):
And you can add text in all different colors, as you can see here (click to make it larger):
When you finish your infographic, you want to save it to your camera roll. There is no option to edit an infographic after you save it, and in fact, as soon as you close the app your creation is no longer going to be in the app. So you want to plan ahead for your infographic because you’ll need to create it all in one sitting. Make sure to save it before you leave the app, as you’ll see here (click to make it larger):
Infographics can be used in my personal as well as professional life. Instead of having a report or piece of paper listing statistics about library book circulation libraries could us inforgraphics to illustrate how books, ereader, ebooks etc. are utitlized. I made one for the SSC Elementary Library for the month of November 2013. My infographics design is posted here:
