Do you use any photo editing apps?

I know there's been a lot of buzz lately regarding the cell phone apps that use AI to edit photos, but some of the results can look really cool. I've also seen some apps that focus on making architecture look like cartoons. I will admit that I haven't dived very deeply into the app craze. A good friend of mine loves using her Snapchat filters to make funny photos to make us giggle.

Do you use any apps on your phone to edit photos (either for fun or for artistic purposes)? I'm talking about apps beyond Photoshop or PSE. If so, what apps do you like? Which ones do you find you go back to? Do you ever scrap those photos?

Thank you for sharing your experiences!

I use snapchat sometimes. I actually like using the holiday filters and taking silly pictures so I'll have more photos to scrap. I don't usually have a lot of Halloween and Easter photos so I use those filters.

Okay I didn't realize I had so many LO's with snapchat photos! Some favorites...

Once in a while I will do Snapchat filters with my Grands just for fun.
Overall I just use photo editing to enhance my photos, not to change them into anything artistic. I rely a lot on the iPhone built in editing and then sometimes do more advanced editing in Affinity Photo.

I do not use any apps on my phone to filter photos. I don't even have snapchat or any of the other social media networks, only facebook.

I don't use any phone apps generally for editing except for adding a vivid filter if a photo is washed out or had bad lighting.

Love the fun filters from Snapchat. I saw an ad for an app the other day that would turn architectural photos into cartoons. It looked fun, but since that's not really my style, I wasn't excited about spending money on an app I didn't need. I also think some of the AI apps can produce really cool results for portraits, but I know there's been a lot of backlash from that concerning artistic rights.
