The Animal Font App is the cute creation of Japanese balloonists, designer Takashi Kawada and balloon fashion designer Rie Hosokai, also known as Daisy Balloon.
The Animal Font App is a feel-good, happy smartphone application that enables you to send messages using the balloon animal typography created by the Japanese designer duo. The merrymaking experience is heightened by the sound effects and heavy swinging movements after you activate the 'Shake mode' of Animal Font App. Be sure to cause giggles and smiles with your ballooned texts.
The creators and developers of the Animal Font App decided to donate all proceeds from the sale of the app, for a period of 6 months, to help the recovery efforts in Japan after the earthquake.
