You can use the app to create up to five elves, using photos from your camera or Facebook. Then bring your elves to life with AR projections of them in different locations.
You can even create an Elf-themed Christmas card with a personalized greeting that you can share with friends and family. The hilarious feature everyone’s talking about is the new dances you can choose for your elves and videos of them dancing that the app generates.
The service is free to use, though the apps do have ads and in-app purchases if you’d like to partake. If you’d really like to change up the look and sound of your elves beyond a few simple options, you’ll have to pay.
