Technology: Kraft Photo Booth - a Fun and Free Mobile App!

Alex is just chillin’ with Kool-Aid Man, livin’ the pitcher life.

It’s amazing how many fun and free apps are available for the iPhone, iPad, and Android devices. I’ve got a few devices and I’ve just scratched the surface with adding games, magazines, and photo apps and just today I was introduced to the fun new Kraft Photo Booth App. The app is housed on the GoldRun augmented reality platform and it allows you to play with your food! It’s your chance to take a photo with a giant OREO cookie or Mr. Peanut himself.

The app is a snap to install and use. Just visit the Apple iTunes or Android App Store and search for “GoldRun” Social Networking. Download and install the app and once you open it, choose the Kraft Foods Photo Booth option or download it from the GoldRun website. That’s it! Now just use your device’s camera to place yourself in the photo!

Easy to download and install the app and within minutes you’ll be having fun!

Once you get the hang of the photo app you may want to personalize the pose or make it more fun by changing the size or location of the character. Resize the character by pinching and expanding or contracting the graphic or move it to a better location by touching and holding the character and moving it to another location.

Now put yourself in the photo! Just strike a pose, click the photo icon button at the bottom of the screen, and you’re inside the Kraft Photo Booth!

Not your best side? Hit the “retake” button. Love it? Share it with all your friends and family via eMail, Twitter, or Facebook. Just choose your sharing option and authenticate your account. The app will remember your information and allow you to send subsequent photos with one click! Click on settings to opt into automatically saving the photos to your device so you have them available there as well. There’s also a help section and an FAQ should you need it, but seriously it’s the easy app ever.

I’ve been tweeting our pictures with the hashtag #KraftPhotoBooth on Twitter and you can too! I’ll be following the hashtag looking for your fun pics – I can’t wait to see how creative you are!

There are three characters available now – OREO, Mr. Peanut, and the Kool-Aid Pitcher – and more are coming soon! I can’t wait to see who’s next!

Move and resize the characters for the perfect pic!

Really fun and best of all – FREE!

Thanks, now I want an OREO! I love the picture with the Kool-aid man popping out behind you.

Connie on July 25, 2012 at 5:40 pm

It’s the Kool-aid one fun! I think that’s my favorite. 🙂

Marcie W. on July 25, 2012 at 9:46 am

These photos are hilarious! I really would love some Oreos and Kool Aid for a snack right now.

Connie on July 25, 2012 at 11:48 am

I know, right?!? That OREO is too delicious looking 🙂

Thanks! We’ve been having a great time trying it out.

Jennifer on July 23, 2012 at 9:03 pm

what a cute app but now you’ve made me want an OREO cookie.

Connie on July 23, 2012 at 9:07 pm

Yea, that was my problem too….I needed an OREO all night and not a cookie in the house 🙂

Zipporah Sandler on July 23, 2012 at 5:03 pm

Connie you crack me up. That was so much fun.

Connie on July 23, 2012 at 7:10 pm

Ah, thanks Zippy! I did enjoy myself way too much 🙂

Crystal @ Simply Being Mommy on July 23, 2012 at 2:21 pm

Heehee, that looks like a fun app!

Connie on July 23, 2012 at 3:21 pm

It is! Your kids would love it!

Penelope (NYC Blogger) on July 23, 2012 at 2:01 pm

That looks fun, you guys are so cute!

Connie on July 23, 2012 at 3:21 pm

Ah, aren’t you sweet! My son hates all the silly pictures I put of him on the internet. 🙂

Jenn on July 23, 2012 at 1:42 pm

How fun! Mr. Peanut is the man!

Connie on July 23, 2012 at 3:22 pm

I know, right? I forgot to post the pic of my dog wearing his hat and monocle – it’s on Twitter & FB.

Donna on July 23, 2012 at 11:19 am

How cute! My son would love this!

Connie on July 23, 2012 at 1:15 pm

Donna – he would! It’s a lot of fun and truly easy to use. They’ll be adding more characters soon, too. The same platform houses Ice Age characters as well.

Tammy on July 23, 2012 at 11:13 am

Love it. It’s a cute ap.

Connie on July 23, 2012 at 1:15 pm

It’s a lot of fun Tammy and so easy to use. There are 5-6 choices for each character so plenty of posing opportunities!

Liz @ A Nut in a Nutshell on July 23, 2012 at 10:12 am

You had WAY too much playing with that! I hope the Kool-Aid guy didn’t bend your glasses when he ran over you! lol

Connie on July 23, 2012 at 1:16 pm

Seriously. Just once though I’d like to have make-up on and my hair combed when I post a pic of myself online. This from the woman who wouldn’t go to the grocery store without full hair and make-up until about a year ago 🙂
