Photo mode

Zooom now takes photos. Sort of.

Tap instead of drag, and the app captures a single photo, then turns it into a 15-second video with your selected loop playing over it. A still image with a soundtrack, ready to share anywhere.

Getting there was a battle: upside-down photos, mirrored videos, audio that stopped halfway. A full day of fixes for a feature that looks like nothing. That's usually a good sign.
