With the Christmas just a knock away, here is your chance to customize dear old Santa. The idea behind this Christmas app is really simple and yet it turns out to be a really nice Christmas gift.

It’s a simple framing app with a twist. The frames are various Santa gears. The way it works is simple enough. Use the iPhone camera or get any other photo from the photo library and adorn that person with various Santa gears various types of Santa hats, caps, beards, glasses and other gears.

And that’s not all. You can add your own message along with the customized Santa –who might be you or any other person you know. Or just that lone walker on the boulevard whom you thought just walked out from the fairytale and just needed that Santa Beard to be the grand old man himself.

Ratings for the concept: 3.5

Using the iPhone technology: What to do with these images? These customized Santas are saved in the iPhone’s photo library. So just mail them to anybody. Or if you have created a really good digital Santa with which you wish to do more – transfer them to your Mac or PC and print them out.

Interface: The interface is good, though it could have done well with a few more options which are related to the legend of Santa.

Rating for the interface: 3.5

App Store reception: So far it has got a 5 star review.

Overall: Worthy buy for a $0.99 to enliven this holiday season that tad bit more.
