The creators of the web service for processing photos Polarr We presented the eponymous mobile application. In terms of features, it is not inferior to the browser version and claims to be the most functional mobile photo editor.
Over the years I have used Snapseed as the main application for working with images on your phone. Quick, convenient and functional - it met all my needs. However, the release Polarr made me reconsider a decision by offering free desktop photo editor uncompromised functionality.
When you first start has to take a few minutes to deal with the interface and all the tools. There are many, and a basic set of instructions does not provide a clear understanding of where things are and how to use it. While the interface is news and it seems congested, especially on the iPhone 5 or 5s screen, most of the elements can be hidden, expanding the area to preview the result.
The interface and tools are identical to the web version, only changed the location of some elements in the version for smartphone. Top - EXIF-data; right - the list of settings, change the size and proportions, the choice of radial and circular fields for editing; left - the set of filters and change history. It is the most functional photo editor, with whom I've worked. Histogram correction curves for each channel, rich in detail and color adjustment, compensation optical distortion - this list has recently was peculiar only productive desktop solutions. Nevertheless Polarr inferior Snapseed in two important functions: a complete adjustment of the individual regions Image available only in the paid version, and the compensation of distortion vertical and horizontal prospects non-existent.
Polarr runs only in landscape orientation, and it imposes certain restrictions. This is especially true of inconvenience in the work with vertical images on all devices, except for the iPad, where the problem is insignificant, given the size of the screen. It is a novelty on the plate with all the abundance of options and opportunities looks advantageous of all. Also Polarr demanding performance that ultimately determines the choice of an optimal gadget for him. For example, viewing the changes in real time does not work properly on the iPhone 5, in contrast to the corresponding function Snapseed, while Polarr consumes more energy.
