21 Mobile Photo Editing Apps

From Effortless Text-Adding Apps to Storytelling Photo Apps

— January 4, 2014 — Tech
Mobile photo editing apps are great for giving you even more creativity outside of in-app options like Instagram’s filters when you’re on the go. Some apps now contain the power of entire software programs like Photoshop, which have been condensed to provide users with the ability to add filters, color-correct or enhance photos with the press of a button. With the help of some of these apps, blemishes and red eye can also be made to disappear.

If you’re looking to add a little flourish or a bit of text to the photos you share on Instagram or videos on Vine, apps like Flipagram, Over HD and Vinyet should provide tons of inspiration for new ways to really make your creations pop.
