If you are following photography on any social media site, you will have come across photo themes, projects and challenges – all of which are regularly, for example weekly, repeating events with curators asking for a specific type of photo, and participants publishing their take on that theme, often using a unique hashtag.

The Phoebus app strives to automate the more mundane parts of this process, to help you concentrate on what really counts – your creativity.

Whether you just want to be reminded of posting a photo regularly, want to participate in an already existing theme, or want to be challenged to specific images by the app itself – just set up a new inspiration and the app will notify you whenever an image is due.

Sharing is possible directly from the app, which will even suggest some text to go with your photo, including a set of hashtags. You can also share your reminders with friends, allowing you to work on the same challenges and compare your results later.
