This week, e27 brings to you 5 apps that would change your experience with your iPhone camera. That little piece of technology that you hold in your hands has hidden capabilities that might rival even the most sophisticated photo-editing software!
Depending on which model of iPhone you are currently using, the resolution of your camera might differ and you might thus prefer your darling SLR or compact camera to your trusty iPhone. That might be a thing of the past once you discover the great number of photo processing apps available on the iOS! Eliminate the need to lug around your camera and do miracles with this week’s iPhone apps. With a few touches, you can make your photos unique, from adding tints to creating unique collages. You might even impress your friends with photo editing skills that can rival that of any Photoshop genius!
DECOPIC
The craze of neoprints might have abated in hot and sunny Singapore and I suspect that part of the reason is due to their sky-high prices. Do not be dismayed and give up on decorating your photos forever… this app is a great substitute for those neoprint machines. What’s more, you can have all the time in the world to decorate your photos as you please! No more beating that annoying clock ticking down as you pull your hair out with stress.
Photosynth
So you are at this gorgeous place with breathtaking scenery, you want to take a panorama shot but you realise that your camera does not have that capabilities. Do you A) Give up, B) Take the photos anyway and hope Photoshop’s “stitch” function would serve you well, or C) Whip out your iPhone with Photosynth installed and emerge with a panorama within minutes! This app is a miracle worker! I am thoroughly impressed and more than a little awed when I noticed that the panorama I took managed to capture depth. Do not miss out on the chance to take a panorama photo ever for you only need to download this free app off the App Store.
Multi-lens
Want to create a collage and yet you can’t be bothered to take the photos now and edit them later? No problem! Only 2 simple steps required to produce that perfect collage. 1) Choose a collage design, 2) Take multiple shots within the frame layout. This is great for sharing those food photos or friends gathering! Let your creative juices flow and play around with the different collage designs to create unique pieces of art.
Halftone
Have you ever dreamed of being featured on comic strips? Transform any photo of yours into something that looks like it was from a page of a comic strip with just a few taps. Change the type of paper and manipulate the mood that picture is trying to communicate. Enhance colours, increase saturation, add speech bubbles and action words… it is all fool proof! Maybe with this app, you can finally realise that dream of becoming a super hero by creating a series of photos detailing your heroic activities! Share your photos easily too, even as postcards!
Mei Tu Xiu Xiu
A picture says a thousand words… but no one said what language pictures spoke! Transcend the language barrier and embrace this great app that does everything that one can hope for. If you are looking for simply one new photography app, this should be the one. Do not be daunted by the Chinese characters, the symbols speak for themselves and with a little experience, you will definitely get the hang of it. Decorate your photos to your heart’s desires with the many options available and even create collages with a great selection of backgrounds. The only drawback is that sharing is only available for Chinese SNS but the way around it would be to save the photo and upload it!
If you like this app, do try out the other app Mei Tu GIF by the same developer. Similar to this app, it allows you to edit a video with snapshots taken live. I am still meddling around with it but so far, it has gotten my seal of approval.
There are certainly many more photography apps out there. If you have any particular favorite that I have missed in this post, feel free to comment and share!
