Photography is one of the most important discoveries of the human race. Photo editors have also been around for some time. Thanks to the smartphone revolution (it’s a revolution, isn’t it?), Photo editors have reached a point where we’re considering switching to them. Modern photo editing programs have proven to be very effective and worthy. In this article, we have listed some of the best photo editing apps for iPhone and Android.
Here are our top-chosen photo editors available for the iPhone and Android.
List of photo editing programs
Snapseed
Who else to start with than Google’s own. Snapseed is a photo editor owned and developed by Google. And if we know anything about Google, it’s the best thing about photos. There’s no doubt that Google has the advantage of having a wider user base than anyone else on this list, which ultimately pays off for Google in the end.
Snapseed comes with all the essential tools needed for editing photos, such as cut, vignettes, straight, frames, text, etc. The app also offers customizable filters, which is an excellent addition. Powered by Google’s AI, Snapseed does an excellent job of making your photos look beautiful. Above all, Snapseed is free and available for iPhone and Android. You can download it from the following links.
Snaps: Google Play | App Store
Prisma Photo Editor
Prism will not need an introduction? This came at a time when most filters made our photos look like ‘drawings’ or ‘paintings’ (and to be honest, everyone was awful, right?). There is no denying that Prisma has done an excellent job of transforming our images into paintings that seem to have Picasso coming into our homes.
You can get away with the generous amount of free filters; we would recommend that you try the premium version. Do not worry, it does not stick a hole in your pocket. Prisma also has its own community like Instagram / Facebook, so yes, your skills will not go unnoticed. You can download it from the following links.

Adobe Photoshop Express
Here comes the ‘professional’ photo editor of a company that apparently owns a monopoly in the PC realm. The so-called mobile version of Photoshop lets the user play with advanced (or just the basic) features like exposure, contrast, color correction and more.
As mentioned above, Adobe Photoshop Express is an excellent tool for customizing your images. With a decent array of filters, cover structures, and tools for making collages, we’d say the app is worth the penny. You can download it from the following links.

VSCO
VSCO deals with the filters. It makes your photos look like they were taken with an analog film camera. Yes, the basic version is more than enough for you, but you can definitely try their free 7 day trial. The wide range of presets includes those designed to emulate classic Kodak, Fujifilm and Ilford films.
The user can also use VSCO to adjust the exposure, temperature, contrast or skin tone. They can also share their craft with VSCO’s community or on another social media platform. You can download it from the following links.

Adobe Lightroom
Well, here’s another Adobe. Lightroom for mobile phones is very similar to that of the PC variant. The app has the same set of tools that you can find in Lightroom on the desktop. And yes, it’s not meant to add stickers to a photo (maybe you can do a little work).
The projects are synchronized in the cloud, allowing a user to continue on his cattle-like machine as needed. Yes, it is paid, but for the reason that it does what he claims. You can download it from the following links.

Foodie
This one is special, as the name suggests, meant for all the goodies out there. A true foodie does not care what others think of their eating habits, and neither does Foodie. Foodie’s editor is very similar to that of Instagram. But here, all 30 filters and editing features are set up for food. You can download it from the following links.

Face
This one, on the other hand, is meant for small details. We believe that there is nothing wrong with pimples, dark spots, bags under the eyes or teeth that are not completely white. But now say you do not want it in your selfies (you only know how to confirm how bad you would look without it). With the free version of the app, the user can quickly retouch his portrait photos. one can smooth the skin, reduce the shine of the skin, apply eye makeup, whiten teeth, and more.
However, the free version of the app is filled with ads. And comes with a pimple that looks just like a watermark. We therefore recommend that you go with the pro version. You can download it from the following links.
