Excellent iPhone app to edit and enhance photos
The cameras of Android devices such as Sony Xperia or Samsung Galaxy or even iPhone have simplified the development of high-quality photography from smartphones. And if we add to the latter the wide range of applications to edit and enhance photos available, the result is a huge number of high-quality images that we can find on any web or social network of the likes of Facebook, Instagram or Flickr without needing great photography knowledge.
Among these apps, we can find the one that’s considered by many as the best photography application. We’re talking about Candy Camera, an app that in its iOS version takes the extraordinary photo quality of Apple’s mobile devices to the next level.
Also one of the best applications to edit selfies.
The best filters and effects to enhance your photos in real time
The application offers us a series of functions and features of the likes of the following:
- Over 100 artistic filters.
- Simple and easy to use: take photos and share them on Instagram and other social networks.
- Specific functions for selfies.
- Apply real-time filters without requiring subsequent corrections.
- Simple editing system: modify the brightness, contrast, saturation, resolution, crop, rotate, create mosaics, and apply effects. And all the latter, very quickly.
- Unlimited video recordings with real-time filters.
- Create collages.
- Apply stickers from a catalog that’s in constant renovation.
And these are some of the reasons behind its success… although we can’t forget to mention its interface that has limited its options to 5 main buttons with an upper toolbar from where we can adjust different parameters. All from the same screen on which we’ll take our pictures.
It’s one of the applications that has improved the most regarding previous versions, becoming one of the favorites on Android (the APK of which has been downloaded millions of times from the Play Store) and also for iOS users.
Which one’s better? Candy Camera or Retrica?
Many users want to know which is the best application to edit photos and these two are definitely the first apps that spring to mind, with very similar features. However, some people say that it’s Cany the one with the most complete editing system because it’s got many more functions, tools, and plenty of effects and filters to be applied to the images.
In any case, Retrica is also a very decent app that you’re also going to find very useful: it’s extremely complete and way above the average of this kind of app.
