The 'Fits' App is creating lots of buzz in the blogosphere. Revered as "the perfect Rosh Hashana gift," this app actually sizes a woman's breasts to help her find the perfect bra size.
The app uses shape recognition technology to a photograph taken on a user's phone. The Fits App then identifies a user's general frame, focusing on the chest area to determine bra size. The Fits app subsequently chooses a picture of the presumably accurate bra size for a user to superimpose onto their photo.
