[App] Integrate a 'Pin to start' functionality to your Windows Phone Photos Hub

[Benjamin Sautermeister]

Are you missing a Pin to start functionality in your Windows Phone Photos Hub? Me either!
That's why I've develop a tiny app, which integrates such a feature, so that it feels like being part of the OS.

​

The app comes without any adverts and you can download it for free in the Windows Phone Store.

Great app! One ques.. how do u (re)arrange/align a photo so that it is centered before pin to start? Does it crop into 1:1 ratio? Thanks.

In the first version, I do not (re)arrange/align or crop a photo at all. This is done automatically by windows phone. But I'll do this in one of the next updates, so that the performance of the start screen is better (because currently with a lots of pinned photos, it can be slow).

I just published an update, which improves the image quality of the pinned pictures. In Addition, pinned pictures are now animated.
Enjoy!
