Best Free Photo Editing App For iPhone in 2020

In Today's date, every one of us is trying to make a good and legit looking profile on our respective social media and in most of the cases, Instagram is the most usable social media platform. Everyone wants their photo to look amazing and attractive so that they can increase there followers and become popular by engaging people over there profile. And to do so we all try our hard to edit our photos with every kind of imagination we have but sometimes the photo doesn't look the way we wanted. This could be due to a lack of skills or the most common reason could be that you are using the wrong photo editing app.

There are numerous photo editing apps available to download on the App store but very few of them are good and if you want the best photo editing app that too for free then options become less. The best free photo editing app you can get for your iPhone is Lightroom.

Lightroom

 Lightroom provides you with the many features that no other photo editing app will provide you for free. Lightroom for mobile can be said as the younger brother of lightroom cc available for pc.

Many features are the same as we get in pc but there is a slight difference that we'll discuss later. As a social media influencer, your photos should look appealing to your audience so that in future they don't unfollow you. features like highlights, saturation, brightness, contrast, and so on are common in every photo editing app so we'll not talk about them. 

If you are a newcomer in photo editing or you are not so professions, Lightroom helps you by providing photo editing tutorials given by some of the best photographers in the world from adjusting the temperature to edit a moody photo you get tutorial of anything you want to learn. You get the option to see the views and likes on a particular tutorial too you can prefer one accordingly. Now, where will you get the tutorials? It's quite confusing so follow these steps:-

1.  Open  Lightroom
2. Click the Home option available on the top right corner
3. Scroll down

Lightroom provides you with cloud storage also that will surely help you if your phone storage is less. You can export it later on either on your camera roll or on to files plus you can share it directly to any platform. If you have a lot of photos in your cloud storage and you want one of them immediately then you can filter it out. The filter option is available in your main library on the top of the screen.

Lightroom provides you with a very interesting and cool feature of exporting your photos with the flexibility of choosing the file type, sizing, and Image quality plus you have the freedom to set these settings according to your preference.
This app is preferred over the others due to many reasons but the main of all I could say is the option to download presets of your preference from the internet and use them. Lightroom is a well-known app and you'll get plenty of cool and aesthetic looking presets on the internet that too for free and you can use them easily on your photos. But to download presets from the internet you have to follow a set of instructions like you have to download a file extractor on your phone and many more you can refer to any video for this. You can make your own preset also by following these simple steps while editing a photo:-

1. Click on the three dots available on the top right corner of your phone
2. Select Create Preset
3. Name the preset
4. Select group in which you want it
5. Other options are optional to select but I'll prefer not to change other settings
   

Then you can also add a keyword or rate your photo according to your preference. Doing this makes it easier for you to locate that particular photo later on at the time of filtering.

The app is overall great but in its free version it doesn't provide some of the essential features the biggest of all is you can not edit raw images on the free version for that you need a premium version of the app same thing applies to sharing your photos on cross-platform, this feature is also included in the paid version only. There are plenty of features like this for which you need a paid membership. Though, if you are a beginner or a want to just edit normal photos then the free version is sufficient for you.

 Other Good Photo Editing Apps iPhones

VSCO

VSCO is a well-known photo editing app available for the iPhone for a long time and this app also provides you with one of its own kinds of features that you can't get in any other photo editing app. It has plenty of unique features that outshine it from other photo editing apps available in the market but the problem is that most of the interesting features are paid. Although, you can edit your raw images here, this app lets you edit your raw images on the free version itself, this is a kind of plus point for this app. Moreover, the filters that you get in VSCO are fabulous, they look very beautiful and simple. There are plenty of filters to choose from along with many categories.

You can make your own presets here also but here the preset is known as "Recipe" after you have done your edit you just need to click on the third option on the bottom of the screen and click on "Create the Recipe" and your preset will be made. 

VSCO provides you with the options to fade and add grain to your image these two features are not available on the Lightroom. You have the option to import your project photos here and store them in the VSCO's own cloud storage so that you don't waste your time in importing photos one by one and editing them one by one. This option also helps in remembering which photo you have edited and which is left. Filter option is provided but differently, you can filter out photos based on phototype, is it edited or unedited, and many more.

The most important and interesting feature of this app is that VSCO has its own platform to post your edited photos. This platform is pretty famous and many photographers in this world share their talent there. In the future, if you become a professional photographer you can surely post your pictures there. This platform is pretty good for the photographers as it helps you in engaging with people of the same field and makes you learn new skills.

Snapseed

Snapseed is also a very well know photo editing app available on the App store. It has been developed by Google and according to me if you are new in photo editing you should probably start off by editing your photos on this app because it is very easy to use and understand plus you get features that are initially very difficult to use in other apps but here they are pretty easy to use. You get many filters to use but most of them are not much usable this is my personal experience though. You get options like Double exposure where you can fit two images simultaneously in one, many interesting features like brush, HDR Scape, Perspective. These all are features that no other photo editing app will provide you and are very useful for those who are just beginning to edit photos or for those who edit photos casually. 

The most interesting feature you get is the Healing one, none of the other app provides you with this feature on their free version. This feature is helpful to make major changes to the photo but it is not so useful for the minor things you want to clear in the photo. This app is not recommended by me to edit your photos professionally, it is more useful for the beginners. 

Overall 

All of these apps are great for photo editing and each of the app provides features that are unique and exclusive to that particular app only so in the end it all comes to what you want to edit in your photo.

You can edit your photo in all of these three apps and can export a professionally edited photo by using unique features of all of these apps or you can edit in one of these apps only.
