Swindon residents Keith and his son Ben have been working hard to get their festive elf app ready for Christmas.

The new Tizzy the Elf app will be re-launched on 24 November.

Prior to its second release the Tizzy team have been working like elves in Santa's workshop, to add new features and update the app ready for the festive period.

There are a number of features that can be accessed through the app already, including:

- A welcome from Tizzy - when you open the app and use it for the first time, Tizzy walks through an animated door and into your home.

- Music and dancing function allows you to make Tizzy bust various different dance moves.

- 'Elfie selfie' function allowing users to take their photo with Tizzy or place her in the shot.

Swindon families have already been helping the Tizzy team to perfect the app by testing it and providing feedback.

Keith said: "Our testers are so important to us, and have been helping us to figure out what works well, and what features people enjoy the most. We want to get to a stage where there is something different happening every day – just like with Elf on the Shelf.

“We love getting feedback and receiving new ideas from parents in Swindon.”

The idea for the app came to Keith when Ben and their household were being visited by the Elf of the Shelf. Keith explained: "I kept thinking, it would be so great if there was an app like Elf on the Shelf for families to use throughout the festive period of the year."

The team are also open to having Tizzy sponsor community events such as school discos.

Members of the public can get in touch with Keith through facebook.com/tizzytheelf to discuss sponsorship, or leave ideas or feedback for the app.

The app can be found by searching 'Tizzy the Elf' in your device's app store.
