User Reviews
The fact that this is free is insane. The selective adjustment tool alone is worth what other apps charge $10/month for. I edit all my photos in Snapseed before posting anywhere. The healing brush is magic for removing photobombers.
Best free photo editor hands down. The HDR filter makes my phone photos look like they came from a DSLR. Love how I can save my own filter presets and apply them to all my photos for a consistent look on my feed.
