These days most people live and die by their mobile phones. There seems to be an app for everything. Personally, I have a soft spot for photo editing apps. Listed below are a few iPhone and Android photo editing apps for you to try out.

Hipstamatic for IPhone

Instagram for IPhone
Price: Free at itunes.apple.com
This is one of the most popular photo editing iPhone apps around. Simply snap a picture and enhance it using one of 11 filters. It’s simple and easy to use, and produces great looking photos. Instagram promotes photo sharing, and allows for photos to easily be uploaded to Facebook, Flickr, and Twitter.

FXCamera for Android
Price: Free at market.android.com
This is such a cool app. Simply take a photo and choose from one of seven different effects. My favourite is the ‘Polandroid’ effect which places an instant film border around your images. Other effects such as ‘Fisheye’ and ‘Warhol’ are also fun to play around with.

Vignette for Android

Men in general judge more from appearances than from reality. All men have eyes, but few have the gift of penetration.
Cross Process for IPhone

This app adds character to your happy snaps by ‘cross processing’ them. Simply take your pick of red, green, or blue filters. You’ll end up with dreamy, saturated photos. This is a handy photo editing app to have.
