1. Instagram: This is by far my favorite photo edit app. Not only can you create some beautiful edits, but it is also a social platform (much like Facebook, Twitter). Check out this great blog post by Nate leung, on how you can use Instragram to monetize your business. Be sure to follow me!
2. Waterlogue A few weeks ago one of my favorite interior design blogger posted a Waterlogue picture on Facebook. It was love at first “like” you might say. Here’s an example on how awesome this app is! If you are on Instagram, do a search for #waterlogue to see all the cool pictures that people are editing!

| Canadian Money! What can I say, we like colorful currency. |
3. Framemagic: If you like sharing but don’t want to appear as if you are spamming your friends’ news-feed, this app is a must! It has ton of different frames to choose from so that you are able to create awesome collages. In case you haven’t all already noticed, I love taking pictures of my son. I find it hard to just pick one or two to share (he’s pretty photogenic). So what I do is I choose the ones I like, make a collage then share it as one picture! Voila!

5. Simply HDR: HDR stands for “high dynamic range”. You can turn a plain/boring picture into a more stunning/breathtaking one!

Here are some of my own edits using more than one of the apps mentioned above. This style of edit was all over Instagram for a while. It is called “Instababs”. These two pictures were edited using Simply HDR, Juxtaposer and Framemagic.
There you have it, my top 5 favorite photo edit apps. Do you have a favorite from the ones listed? Maybe you have one that I did not mention? Let me know in the comment below. Love hearing from you guys!

After seeing this post I am urged to download them all and give them a try. I guess I need to get clicking!!! 🙂 Thanks!
Thank you very much! I didn’t know there was an Instagram photo edit! I will be checking it out.
Thank you, I’ve been looking for photo edit abs. I’m not very good at editing and these all look great and easy to use.
You love your cell phone…while I hate mine LOL. I can count the number of times that I’ve taken photos with it on one hand.
Your son is a real cutie and I can see why you cannot resist the urge to post his photos!

Great post on how to edits pictures with your phone. The only one I have ever used is instagram, will have to play with the other ones.
Thank you for sharing!
I am camera shy to the extreme so there are not too many pictures of me in existence! The ones that friends and family got of me are hoarded and kept well out of my sight! I also do not take pictures-but I think one of my cousins who takes slews of them would love a couple of the above apps!
You already know I am all over Instagram and I definitely enjoy stalking you over there, but I have not heard of these other apps. I will definitely check them out!
Nice List! All 5 are great in photo editing.
I have not used any of these but i like the HDR one it would be amazing to use it on some of my pics.
Seems interesting apps..Those photos you have edited looks amazing..Thanks for sharing.
Well, that’s the cutest Batman I’ve ever seen. 😉 The framemagic sounds really cool!
Oh yeah, it seems like life would be impossible without a cell phone.
I’ve never really checked out any apps for photo editing, I am definitely going to check these out.
How cool! I’ve honestly never checked out too many different apps. These are really cool.
Thanks for the tips, I’ve never heard of several of these – I have some exploring to do!!
Great choices! Instagram is definitely my favorite! Simply HDR looks pretty cool also. Will be checking that one out soon!
I need a new phone first and then I can start downloading these great apps. Framemagic sounds something I would like to use.
I love editing photos and have downloaded quite a few on my computer but I have not seen all of these apps. Thanks for sharing! I will be trying out a few of these tonight!
I’ve never tried any of the apps you mention, or any others for that matter. Just not creative?!?
I could go without my cell phone for a long time. I do have to admit that it is nice when I am shopping and need to ask someone in my family a question. I need to tell my Hubs to look at these Apps and see if he is interested.
My favorite app is Rhonna Designs. I take photos with my iPhone daily, and I’m always editing. I can’t wait to check out the apps you’ve suggested.
Simply HDR looks great I’ll go check that out! Thank you!
I love the Simply HDR app. It makes ordinary pictures look pretty cool.
I honestly love using HDR. I use it on a lot of my blog photos. You can use more or less which I also like.
I love apps but hate my cell phone because I can’t get those apps. I have windows 7 phone. after taxes I am upgrading phones. I need to get a phone with android based so I can have goggle play store so I can get these cool apps. I love the ones you told us about and wish I could download them,.
This is just a little out of my comfort zone and learning curve for right now. It amazes me how easily some people are able to use their phones for everything!! I’ll get it!!
The effects are really pretty amazing! I wanted the Waterlogue app but I’m too frugal to pay for it. lol I’ll look at the others now. The Simply HDR is really neat!
These are great, but you didn’t include my all time favorite PIXLR
These sound like great apps. Now I need a fancy phone to try them out
I like instagram a lot. It is a fun way to share photos, and filters can make almost any photo look better. Lol.
Thanks so much for the mention Marielle. Always appreciated. You have introduced me to a few more that I just might try. The Simply HDR looks pretty cool
wow these are amazing i’ve always wonder how people made there photos so eye catching. what app do you use to add borders and things to an instagram photo
Thank you for sharing. I’ve seen some from Waterlouge and think it’s a great way to jazz up pictures.
I like these Apps…now I just need someone to help me use them!
I love using photo editing apps on my phone too. Thanks for the tips about these, I will be checking them out and downloading the ones that I like.
your son is such a cutie! thanks for sharing these!
I have to admit I love Instagram I’ve not heard of many of the others I’ll have to check them out 🙂 x
Oh for fun. I will have to check these others out.
I have to check them out. I have only heard of the instagram one.

I actually use instagram often, but would love to try those 4 app. thank you for sharing.. im curius about the SImply HDR app 😉
I love learning about new apps. Thanks for sharing your favorites with us.
The only app that I have heard of was instagram! I will have to check these out! Thanks for sharing your favorites!
These all look like great apps! I am so jealous of Canadian money. In fact, everyone else seems to have prettier money than our boring green, lol.
I haven’t heard of most of these apps. Will be checking them out! Thanks for sharing. And yes he is very photogenic. 🙂
Thank you Dawn! 😉
Thanks for this list of apps. When my kids were young, I took a lot of pictures, but nowadays I forget that I have a phone with me in the form of my phone and my kids have gotten more camera shy, I especially like the Waterlogue. You’ve inspired me to check these out.
So happy I found this blog post. I have not seen the Waterlogue one until now. Off to check it out now.
Glad you found them useful Mary! Thank you for stopping by!
Amazing how many there are. Thanks for these!
I like this app. I don’t know much about the phone apps or photos, my son helps but I will definitely look into this app. Thanks for the post.
Hi Marielle,
First off, thank you for the shout out! Much appreciated.
I remember you sharing that you didn’t have your cell phone but it just shows if you can do without a cell phone during the pager days, 7 days without a cell phone shouldn’t too hard.
I’ve tried to find some good photo editing apps, but I’m going to use your recommendation and try a few of these!
I’m just slow with the multiple Apps. I have instagram but not using to the fullness. This was excellent. The photos are beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
I am learning new stuff here. Since I love using pictures on my blog, I will definitely check out your recommendations.
I am becoming more of an Instagram guy, need to get serious though 😉 Thanks!
Wow … it’s quite amazing what all of these apps can do … I seriously do need to look into it xxx
