This app will provide you with all of the basic photo editing functions and more. You will be able to use Auto Correct to automatically adjust photos. You can also use Tune Image to fine tune some effects to make the appearance more customizable.

Additionally, you will get a plethora of filters and boarders. These are built right into the app and will add spice to any ordinary picture. Snapseed will also access your installed social services to share photos. This means you can share any photo through any means you like.
As you may notice, there isn’t a whole lot of negative aspects about this app. While it isn’t the first version, there are a couple bugs that come to be expected from young apps. However, given Snapseed’s reputation, the minor quirks won’t be an issue for long. However, the app does take up a good amount of memory on lower-end devices so if you are using one, you’ll have to be patient.
