This is an amazing app. I have associates who load photos from their DSLR cameras and edit them on a tablet with this app. To me, it's a must have for tablets without a flash. The ability to brighten up a face without brightening the entire image, is awesome. The small negative is that you cannot set the saved file size. However, the app is pretty fast and plenty of creative opportunities. Still 5 stars from me! Devices: Samsung Ultra 22

3 stars is harsh for a fairly good free photo editing app, but Snapseed has not improved or kept up with the times. It's been the same for the past decade. I would like to see a significant improvement to the healing tool. I would also like to see other editing options offered on other platforms. For example, Canva can edit the background and foreground separately, remove objects, expand the image, etc. Other than that, the tools the app offers are still some of the best out there for free.

I love snap seed! It's a pretty nifty little photo editor. It does a great job and has a wide variety of tools to use as well as a few filters. It works well and is perfect for those who would rather have one smaller sized app with the "must have" tools rather than a ginormus app with thousands of tools, most of which you would never even consider to click on. You can't add, like, stickers or make collages--stuff like that... But it's the best app available if you just need a general editor.
