On Thursday, Instagram released its newest stand-alone application, Boomerang, which converts groups of photos into high-quality videos.

Boomerang—which is available for iOS via the iTunes App Store and Android via Google Play–joins fellow Instagram stand-alone apps Hyperlapse and Layout.

Instagram described how Boomerang works in a blog post:

Capture a friend jumping off a diving board, defying physics as she flies back and forth through the air. Transform an ordinary selfie with your friends into a funny video. Get that exact moment your friend blows out his birthday candles, and then watch them come back to life again and again.
