For many of us, mobile along with apps, are a great tool of productivity and fun, but what if you come across an app that can tell you exactly how ugly you are. Well, in that case, you definitely want to use it as soon as possible to know what your score is.
Dapper Gentlemen's Ugly Meter app exactly serves this purpose. The app, which was around for quite some time, is now creating a buzz in the App Store charts. The app costs $0.99 app, and is available on iPhone, iPod touch and iPad running iOS 3.0 or later.
The app works by scanning a photo of yours or of your friend, by using a number of parameters to give the picture a rating between 1 and 10 on the Ugly Scale. A score of Zero means that you are good looking and 10 means you are the ugliest.
To your surprise there are sound effects and comments thrown in so beware if you come out as a 10. So you know what to expect when you score the highest on the scale. They may range from "You're so hot you make the sun jealous" to downright mean "You're so ugly, you could make a glass eye cry."
The app's tag line is, "When your friends won't tell you the truth, the Ugly Meter will."
The app has become quite popular among the users who are making use of this app for fun purposes.
While according to the company, the app is meant to be a fun app, however, anti-cyber bullying activists warn that the app could encourage teasing and lower a child's self esteem.
