Ratings:4.5/5


Pros:
  • No complicated parameters

Suggestions:
  • Icons (color filter, vignette & contrast) designs are not intuitive enough
  • Edit should be displayed all the time or users might misunderstand that the photo he/she is editing is dismissed



  1. Select a photo from cameraroll
  2. Take a photo 
  3. App settings such as save the original photo
  4. If you have edited a photo, it will have an Edit icon here for you to edit it again, suggest that the icon should be kept as enabled or disabled or users might ignore this function.
-----
After you import a photo, 3 buttons are for you to edit this one below, it will be better of the 3 buttons can be named or designed more carefully for easier identification.
  1. Color filter
  2. Vignette style & border
  3. Brightness, contrast and grain
  4. Back to select another photo

-----
With each color filter, it produce different effects on your photo, the best of it is a explanation appears to guide you. Tap anywhere to skip color filter selection and apply other effects.

Adjust the vignette style for the photo, that is, the effects to the corner of photos, you can also adjust the border style here
-----
Adjust brightness, contrast and grain here, I like to grain effect to have better texture.
