Share Your July Fourth Fun With the New Patch iPhone App

Whether you're dressing up your kid in the cutest red, white and blue outfit, enjoying a patriotic parade or watching the fireworks blow up the sky over the bay or Marin County Civic Center Lagoon, we know your smart phone will be in hand, ready to document every great summer moment.

While posting those shots on Facebook or Instagram is certainly fun, now you can share those photos directly on Patch with our new app.

Just visit the App store, search "Patch" and download. It's free. (If you already have the Patch app, delete that one first.)

Once you're signed in via Facebook or your Patch account, whirl the green wheel with the plus sign to shoot and/or upload photos from your gallery, add videos and even post news and announcements to your hometown Patch.

It's easy! It's fun! It's Patchy.

We can't wait to see what you post!
