All you have to do is open the app, aim, take a photo, and Boomerang will create the moving photo clips for you!

Once your boomerang is complete you can save it to your photo gallery and post it on social media. Once it is uploaded to Instagram, Boomerang acts as a video clip and notifies the up-loader how many views and likes it is receiving. It’s that simple.
