Photo editing apps are pretty important. Facebook and Instagram users from all over the world upload hundreds of thousands of pictures on the internet daily. Ever wonder what makes all the pictures you see on the web so glamorous or how everyone in your Facebook friend list looks surprisingly photogenic in each of their pictures?

When people post their pictures online, they make sure they look more than good in them. And that is where photo editing apps come in handy.

There are not hundreds but thousands of Android applications that help you edit your photos in ways you never imagined. They come with various tools that allow you to adjust the brightness, change colors, set different filters, etc. Some highly advanced photo editing apps also enable you to merge different pictures and make a picture-collage.

Don’t you just adore Android for bringing more fun and variety to your smartphone experience? Well, if you are looking for some of the best photo editing applications for your Android-powered smartphone or tablet, here is a list of seven photo editing apps that we screened out for you.

FaceTune

If you love taking selfies, this is the perfect app for you. Since most smartphones do not generate high-quality selfies, FaceTune redefines the pictures and makes them look as if they were taken from a high-end DSLR.

It does not matter if you have dark circles, acne or blemishes as FaceTune removes them all. Also, it can brighten your teeth and make your smile look even more appealing. Furthermore, this app can be used to reshape your jawline and nose, apply makeup and even fill in the bald spots, if there are any.

Prisma

Inspired by the artworks of Picasso, Levitan, Van Gogh and Munk, this photo and video editing application allows you to be highly creative with your captured memories. Its results and filters are still unmatched, and that is one of the reasons why it is being used by millions of people all around the world.

AutoDesk Pixlr

This is a free picture editing application and one of the best-rated ones for Android. There are over 2 million combinations that you can make using its editing tools. AutoDesk Pixlr lets you make collages and apply a broad range of backgrounds to them. It is one of the best editing apps as it allows you to be highly creative. You can overlap multiple pictures and blend them together. Also, there is an Auto Fix feature that stabilizes the colors automatically.

AutoDesk Pixlr also allows you to stylize your photos using ink sketching, text overlaying and red-eye removal functions. And yes, there is a teeth whitening feature too so there would be no problem if your teeth are ‘not so white.’

Flickr

Flickr, which is one of the most commonly used and oldest photo editing applications has been used to edit more than 12 billion photos worldwide. Ever since Yahoo! took over in 2005, Flickr became the most popular platform, especially for professional photographers.

Today, it not only offers highly competitive editing tools but also 1TB of free storage, which means you can edit and save tons of pictures and never run out of space. To make your Flickr experience even better, you can level up by purchasing its pro version.

Snapseed

Run by Google since 2012, Snapseed is a picture editing application that works better than many, especially for fashion shoots and professional portraits. It has various features including vignette, white balance, color adjustments, etc.

Snapseed is mostly famous because of the professional touch it gives to your photos. So if you are looking for an application that can help you edit your pictures for a portfolio, you might want to go for Snapseed.

Adobe Photoshop Express

Adobe Photoshop Express is one of the most widely used photo editing applications you can find. This is because of the various editing tools it offers you. You can use this app to rotate your pictures any way you want, you can even crop or flip them.

While there are other tools as well including white balance, hue, frames and photo straightening, there are some special tools including, but not limited to, red-eye removal, that you may not find in most photo editing applications.

Adobe Photoshop Express also offers you special filters such as Vibrant, Glow, and Superpunch. You can also use the Photoshop Mix feature that allows you to use different photos to make one single image. Moreover, there are two add-on packages namely Adobe Looks Pack and Adobe Advanced Pack. These, however, do not come free.
