PhotoToaster - Photo Editor, Filters, Effects and Borders

I've had PhotoToaster for 3 years. I've tried several other photo editing apps because they had different features, but i still use PhotoToaster almost every time I want to touch up a picture or do something creative. PhotoToaster is perfect for what I want to do; I'm not interested in social media as much as just getting beautiful pictures. There are easy to use social media options on PhotoToaster, but that's not the primary purpose of the app. What I love most is how detailed I can get with the editing tools. I love still life photography, and PhotoToaster makes beautiful works of art with my scenes and landscapes. I can make the colors really funky, or max out the contrast, or make a picture look like an oil painting. It can be very therapeutic art. My sister uses it on portraits...she makes 40 look like 30...or 20! :) Love the borders and frames, the textures, and the abilities to de-focus and de-saturate--in specific areas using the Fx Brush. The app does let you get into some really complex and technical editing, but it offers super simple, super fast and easy edits too--it doesn't *have* to be complicated if you just need a quick edit or pre-fab setting, but you have the options to edit in great detail if you like. Wish I could attach some pictures. If you consider photography a form of art, this is a wonderful app for that. You'll love it!

Since my 1st iPhone - before I even knew what Snapseed was - before I learned how to use any other photo app, I had the pleasure of using the Toaster. When I was a digital novice, it was easy to learn, yet produced results. Others have mentioned that it s good for beginners and also quick editing of good quality, and this is true. There may be apps better suited for professionals, but they are invariably unwieldy, time consuming, difficult for me to use. And I'm not stupid. The Toaster is perfect for my needs. I use it in combo with Snapseed and Photogene for most things. Upshot is - buy it! Actually, I have all the East Coast Pixel family apps, and am pleased to comply with their review request. This latest update is appreciated, as I wanted to choose my own frames or if I even wanted one. The ECP apps are all easy to learn but will not disappoint. If you want captioning, get Title FX & you won't need any other. No matter how many I download, I still use it, since it's the best. And don't get me started about the new one, PhotoMotion - but it is fabulous.

In the early days of IPhones I was very loyal to Photogene and was able to do more with it than most other apps that I could find. When I found PhotoToster I found it very intuitive if lacking in some of the more professional features. With each update however I often found significant improvements, and since the program has been well written, I've had few crashes and the updates have been able to focus on adding performance capabilities in an easily accessible program that allows everyone from the experienced to the beginner photographer to turn out photos that they can really enjoy sharing. I'm addicted to PhotoToster. My one frustration is, and I don't know if it's an iPhone problem or PhotoToster issue, when using this app I frequently have difficulty accessing all of my photos. They simply don't show up when I search.

I have several photo edit apps on my phone - tried them all - most give you basics and you have to subscribe monthly to unlock advanced options, some are annoying and too hard to figure out. I use Lightroom on my desktop for my Nikon pics and was looking for an app to use on IG for my iPhone pics. This app has a bit of a learning curve - there are many options - for a one-off fee- it’s exceptional and worth more money than they’re charging! Be patient- play around - get creative - have fun - it’s a fun app to use! What are you waiting for? Buy it before they realize they could be charging a lot more!!!

Makes the most awesome photo with the choices, very pleased with that. One of the minor things things is you have to go back in the photo library to chose another photo instead of sliding photos and choosing the one you want to edit. The big problem though when I had done the editing and was going to post on Facebook, it asked for control of camera, and several other things which would give total control of my phone. I denied that control to them. So when I try to post pictures of our business to Facebook I am denied and says go to settings . I did go there but I do not know what to adjust in the settings and no never want to give total control of my phone. So it is useless to me at this point. I am open for suggestions to adjust the settings.
