You don’t have to be in NYC to take part in the Times Square New Year’s Eve festivities. You can download the 2012 Times Square Ball App for iPhone and Android! Watch and participate in the 2012 LIVE global celebration and upload photos to see your face on the Toshiba Vision Sign directly beneath the Times Square Ball, from your mobile device.

“New Year’s Eve 2012 marks the third year Livestream brings the celebration in Times Square to revelers around the world in real-time,” said Max Haot, co-founder and CEO of Livestream. “Our partnership with Toshiba and Times Square New Year’s Eve enables us to deliver high-quality video streams of this one-of-a-kind moment through the Times Square Ball App to everyone with a mobile device.”

  • Send New Year’s Eve cards with personalized greetings with photos from the app to friends, family and followers on Facebook, Twitter and via email.
  • Submit your New Year’s photos for friends, family and other revelers to vote on via the app, on Facebook and Twitter. The photos with the most votes will be showcased on the Toshiba Vision sign atop One Times Square directly beneath the Waterford Crystal New Year’s Eve Ball on December 31. Photos with the most votes will be posted at the top of each hour from 7 p.m. through 11 p.m., and displayed for the world to view during the live show.
