Microsoft Photosynth Almost Ready for Windows Phone?

Joe Fedewa is 23 years old and lives near Lansing, Michigan. He's been interested in technology ever since he got his first flip phone. Since then he's evolved from flip phones to smartphones, and become even more interested in everything from cord cutting to web browsers. Joe is also an avid sports fan and sci-fi movie geek. He's a Joe of all trades.

One app that Windows Phone users have been waiting for is Microsoft Photosynth. The app has been available on iOS for a while now, but is notably absent from Microsoft’s own OS. Photosynth uses the phones camera to take 3D panorama shots. Recent buzz on Twitter about “PhotosynthWP” has stirred up rumors that the app is coming soon. Some panoramas on Microsoft’s Photosynth site that appear to have been taken with a HTC HD7, HTC Radar, Samsung Focus, and Lumia 800 have reinforced those rumors. We’re not sure if Microsoft will be pushing out an app, or if they will bake this into the next version of the OS.
