Social media has become a major part of our lives these days and if you are active on social platforms like Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat you want to make your posts look good and for that, you need good pictures and videos. You can get good images by making use of DSLR’s and good phones but still, you might find something missing.
And this is where editing apps and software’s play their part! So here are 5 best apps which we find works well for us!

I love using Lightroom to edit images. It is a such a great tool and you get so many presets to choose from.
So this all i have in my phone and many more like photo grid, beauty app makeup plus and yes these are must for blogging too. Thanks for updating though
I have used Snapseed and PicsArt and they both are great at images. Good compilation here for many beginners.
I have tried all the above except picsart. Snapseed is my all time favourite ā¤ļø
This post is so useful specially for influencers like me whose large part of the job revolves around good images.
Well I pretty much have been using nothing else but instagram to ābeautifyā my pics!! I really should try my hand the others
I can swear by snapseed and vsco. These two apps done magic to any photos
This listicle is a saviour for users like me. I’ve been using Snapseed for the longest and have been loving it. Meaning to give Lightroom a shot once and rightly said, Instagram is an editor too!
Great compilation. I use picsart and totally love it.
Very helpful post for beginners on Insta like me!
Longtime 60-year-old granddad blogger about to have my 2nd grandchild. Ran across this post with a lot of the mommy blogs and I am so impressed. Such a clean style, great pics, and fun layout. A lot of us old school bloggers need to learn a lesson or two from you ladies. Way to go.
Thanks, Brian.
