I tried Snapseed 4.0, and it’s the Android camera app I didn’t know I needed

Snapseed 4.0 is now available on Android after a couple of months of waiting. For long-time users, it’s more than just a simple update with bug fixes and performance improvements. Google went to work, completely overhauling the user interface and experience. It also added plenty of new features, enough to satisfy avid shutterbugs.

The timing of Google’s renewed interest in Snapseed couldn’t be better. Smartphone photography has advanced steadily, but editing tools lag behind. Adobe Lightroom is fantastic for enthusiasts if you have the time to learn, but I’d love a tool with enough features to keep hardcore users happy while being easy to use for a novice like me.
