Beauty Was in the Eye of the Beholder….Until a Teen Developed an iPhone App to Prove Otherwise

‘Fit or Fugly’ iphone app scientifically measures a person’s attractiveness using a photograph and Fibonnaci’s golden ratio.
Washington, DC – Ed Nash, a young and promising 18 year old entrepreneur from Somerset, UK, announced today that his ‘Fit or Fugly’ iPhone app has surpassed over 3,500 downloads after just 5 days on the market. The hilarious and undoubtedly useful app “Fit or Fugly” allows iPhone users to calculate how attractive a face is. The program uses Fibonacci’s golden ratio which is based on symmetries via key anchor points on a human face – eyes, ears, chin, mouth and nose. Symmetry has been accepted as the measurement to discover a humans attractiveness.
“For many centuries people have been striving to increase their appeal but there never has been an exact way to determine who is beautiful and who is not”, says Ed Nash, teen entrepreneur and creator of the app. “Finally there’s a way to all it takes is a photograph and an iPhone.”

 

The application is extremely easy to use. Users just need to upload a photo or take a new one, place anchor points on the appropriate locations on the face, and anxiously wait for the result. There are no limits to the use of Fit or Fugly as it is equally effective on human faces irrespective of ethnicity, color, age or race. Fit or Fugly is very diverse and people have been actively using in many different scenarios; as a way of declining an invitation to date, supporting their rational to ending a relationship or even to break the ice and have some fun at a dinner party. It has even been known to work on pets!
