All time favorites in the best photo editing app category are definitely:
PicsArt Snapseed Adobe Lightroom
But there is a new app on the Google Play Store and App Store that is gaining popularity rapidly, and our opinion is that it’s absolutely worth the hype. It’s FilmBox Film Negatives Scanner by Photomyne ltd. Stay tuned for our detailed review, as well as tips, tricks and possible problem solutions regarding this, and many other apps!
We have once again dived into the digital manipulation waters with YouCam Perfect Photo Editor. Much like another app that we had reviewed, Lensa, this one provides a staggering number of parameters with which a given subject can be manipulated and tweaked.
Capcut (previously known as Viamaker) is one of the newest video editing apps that is available to download for free both in the Android Play Store and Apple’s App Store. Bytedance Pte. Ltd is behind the application (the parent company of TikTok) and as their tagline goes “Capture the moment and cut”, it’s easy to see where the naming convention comes from.
A relative newcomer to the photo application scene, Pixtica was developed by Perraco Labs, a Barcelona-based developer that previously had a hit on their hands with their Cameringo App.
Photographers all over should be very familiar with this app, as it has existed in the desktop environment since 2007. As we fast-forward to today, we’re looking at the mobile version of one of the world’s most popular non-destructive image manipulation applications.
The application itself comes with a little less fanfare, as it offers a clear and well-thought-out interface that will be welcomed by enthusiast photographers.
What Lensa does, unlike most other photographic apps we have reviewed for this website, is that it expertly focuses on image manipulation concerning the user’s face and general appearance. Employing AI-powered technology, the application is able to analyze the various aspects of an image and focus on the individual in the frame.
There is much to like about this application, as it really does offer just about all the relevant manipulation effects and tools for free. Of course, like many other applications available, this too has a paid plan that unlocks all the features.
When it comes to popularity, few photographic applications can match the wide reach that Instagram has managed to achieve over the past 11 years of existence. Since its inception in October of 2010, it has attracted approximately a billion (yes with a b) users worldwide and is one of the most popular social networks on the planet.
This photo app was originally launched for the iPad in 2011 by Nik Software, but has since been acquired by Google and ported to both Android and iOS devices.
Adobe has over 25 different mobile applications that cover all sorts of categories, including today’s pick, Photoshop Camera Photo Filters.
