But Snapseed is a requisite app for pros who want to work on their photos while on the go.The Samsung Gallery will never see a RAW file, so you will have to search your albums using the OPEN option in Snapseed. And for portrait retouching, we recommend Facetune for its diversity of intelligent high-quality tools. For consumer photographers who seek fun and sharing more than precise editing, we recommend PicsArt. Of all the photo apps we've tested over the past several years, Snapseed is by far the best for serious photographers working on their libraries of photos. On the other hand, some longtime users have expressed dissatisfaction with the app since Google took it over, saying that the simplified interface has taken away some creative options. Most of the complaints are requests for more control, such as a brush to soften or erase portions of the new Double Exposure filter (though that can be done with the Stacks brush). The more than half a million reviews on Google Play rate Snapseed an average of 4.5 stars, while on iTunes, the 8,000+ reviews average 4 stars. Many users claim they no longer (or seldom) use Photoshop. Snapseed has a very loyal following among serious photographers, who tend to rave about it being the best 'must-have' photo app. However, we found it quite easy to post images to Facebook and other apps installed on our devices. Sharing is an afterthought, because that activity isn't photocentric in the traditional sense. So if you accidentally tap the back button before you save, you will lose all your work. The biggest problem we had with Snapseed is the lack of an auto-save as you work.

On the other hand, the Android version accesses Google Photos in addition to the camera's gallery iOS is limited to the device's albums. The iOS version imports over 140 different RAW formats. Both can import RAW files (as well as JPEGs) from folders on your device (including the camera roll), but on Android, the RAW import is limited to DNG. For instance, the iOS version can use your phone's camera to create a new image, while the Android version can't do this. While this is the kind of information that is well-documented in Snapseed's generally helpful tutorials, other key controls and gestures - such as pinching to resize the brushes - are not as clearly explained and are often discoverable only by talking with other users or by experimenting.Д«ecause Snapseed is now owned by Google, we were surprised to find that the iOS version of the program is a peg above the Android version. Then swipe left or right to increase or decrease the intensity of that effect. For instance, in the Tone tool, swipe up or down to select from among Brightness, Contrast, Saturation, Ambience, Highlights, Shadows and Warmth. Snapseed uses gestures to make edits to photos. Our results with Face Pose were subtle and quite appealing. It also uses facial recognition, which allows you to independently adjust the person's pupils or smile. It works only on images with a single face, which it maps onto a 3D model. More interesting is the new Face Pose tool, which can pan and tilt a portrait to create a slightly different pose, or correct focal length-type distortions.
