You can adjust the opacity, size, and even the "squish" for the marker brush. Some are in-app purchases, usually for 99 cents, but many are free.ĭrawing tools also push the app into Photoshop territory, with layers, more than 20 brush types, and shapes that can transform on a 3D plane. There are sets for travel, sports, nature, birthday, mustaches, baby stuff, love, rabbits…the list goes on. Photoshop, watch out! And don't even get me started about clip art.
Once you start working with an image in PicsArt, you immediately see the app's appeal: It has oodles of photo editing tools-not only Instagram-style filters that are more adjustable than those in Instagram, but also curves, masks, clone/stamp, cropping with shape, brushes, borders, text and lens flares. You can pinch to zoom, reveal more controls with a plus button, see before and after views of your image, undo the last action, and reset your picture to its original state. The banner ads across the bottom, however, can be distracting. Despite its multitude of options, using the app is not confusing. The PicsArt app editing interface is well designed and powerful. Setting the ISO level and choosing time lapse or burst modes are even more-welcome possibilities. You can also shoot with multiple layered effects enabled, such as bokeh, light leak, textures, and borders. But in my testing, an "initializing" message occasionally appeared for several seconds while the app switched between effects. Shooting within the app has the benefit of showing you effects applied even as you compose your shot-an ability Instagram had in the past but ditched.

No other Android photo app comes close to PicsArt.Īs with most Android apps, PicsArt requires you to agree to several privacy permissions before completing installation-including in-app purchasing, device and app history, identity, location, and call info. In testing it, I discovered why, and found myself runnign around the office to show people all the cool stuff it could do. PicsArt, a smorgasbord of smartphone photo editing, enhancement, and sharing, has bucked this trend to become a real Android success story. Most app developers have an easier time creating iOS apps first (a good example is Instagram's recent Hyperlapse), since they don't have to deal with Android fragmentation resulting from so many devices and OS versions. PicsArt (free) is a rare app that came to prominence on Android before getting an iPhone version.
