Selfies are hugely popular, but surprisingly hard to do. Taking your own picture can take hours to perfect and can result in arm strain and dropped phones. Selfies on mobile phones are just ripe for disaster, if only you could have a self timer like on a real camera…well, of course you can. This is 2013, anything’s possible. And it costs under a fiver. Impressed? So were we. Thank us later.

Fed up of trying to take selfies on your mobile phone? Or maybe you struggle to take pictures of you and your mates on a night out? You need the Snap remote, the simple remote links to a free downable app, and all you have to do is position the camera, step back and snap away.

The Snap remote costs just £4.95 from prezzybox.com
