Looks like Hasbro is tapping into the app market for their Star Wars products for 2016. The image above is captured from the Hera’s A-wing packaging and it looks to be present on all products set for release this fall.

UPDATE: The app is built by Bad Robot Interactive and will allow people to film their toys and add movie special effects. Thanks to @TheSuperJedi for the info.
