Best iPhone Apps: Photography

Enlight

Enlight was developed to harness the full power of the CPU and GPU in Apple’s devices, delivering one of the most powerful photo editing tools on iOS. If you own an iPhone 7 or 7 Plus, the app takes advantage of the wide color gamut of the displays in those phones, and features an extensive roster of customizable filters and special effects, allowing you to create even more amazing things with that already capable camera.

Snapseed

Snapseed is a must-have if you have an iPhone. This app has more advanced features than the standard Photos app on your iPhone. It lets you enhance your photos with a vast amount of filters and tools that are very intuitive to use. Select the tool or filter you want and simply drag your finger left and right to make the changes. You can even choose to take a picture in RAW with a more advanced camera app and open the RAW files with Snapseed to make all your edits. It’s almost like having Lightroom made simple for a small touch screen device.

VSCO

VSCO is like a super-professional version of Instagram, allowing users to shoot high-quality stills with advanced camera controls and post them to their VSCO profile. The community features original content from VSCO as well as a curated collection of user work.

Selfissimo!

As part of Google’s “Appsperiments” research project series, Selfissimo sets out to make taking selfies much easier. Once you open the app and tap “Start,” your picture will automatically be taken one after the other — similar to a photo booth. Once you’re done, you can select which photos you’d like to save from your photo reel. For now, you’re only able to take photos in black and white.

Facetune

Unhappy with your selfies? Don’t blame the camera — blame the face! With Facetune, you can whiten teeth, erase blemishes, and anything else you might want to do to fix the subtle imperfections that drive you crazy.
