A magic tool to blowminds!

This app gives the ability to watch what the spectator is drawing, in realtime.

Choice of colours for using are; Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue and Black.

The spectator has the choice of either creating their own drawing or, they have the option of colouring an array of preloaded images. As well as the preloaded images, the performer has the ability to add one image of their own. This image can be swapped in and out whenever you desire a change, but only one can be stored at a time.

The performers custom image is loaded into the preloaded drawings which are provided, however, the performer has the ability to tell the app when to show the image to the spectator i.e you have the option to stipulate how many times the spectator has to click through the images until the custom image is presented. This feature is good for helping to force the image.

For performers who do not wish to have their phone 'in play', there are two options...... First option is to use a covert screen (I will not go into details here) which allows the phone to be on the table and gives the performer a subtle notification of the colour that has been chosen. The second option allows the phone to be kept out of sight, but the performer will need to use a covert ear-piece. When using this option the app will give audio notifications of which colour has been chosen. The audio will also name the preloaded images as the spectator clicks through them enabling the performer, without having to ask, to know which image they have settled on. The audio will also notify the performer if the spectator has chosen their personal preset image, or even if the spectator has chosen to freestyle and draw their own image on the blank canvas (obviously you will not know what they have drawn in this instance). When openly looking at the performer's phone, depending on how you wish to do this, the screen will show in realtime what the spectator is doing; You will see the colours chosen, the drawing being made in realtime, also the screen will change to show the preloaded images as the spectator clicks through each of them.

Spectator has the option to click on undo and redo buttons in case they make a mistake or wish to change their mind. And, also they have a trash button to completely erase the drawing.
