It’s never been easier to take high-quality photos on vacation. Gone are the days of dragging around heavy cameras when all you have to do is reach into your back pocket and pull out your smartphone—but these images can always be improved to maximize those likes on your favorite social media platforms! There are a number of apps available for both iOS and Android that allow you to edit your photos to make them professional quality for free in just a matter of minutes. For those searching for the best app for sharing travel photos, here are just a few of the most popular we think you should download:

VSCO

VSCO, also known as VSCO Cam, is an editing and uploading platform created by Visual Supply Company. You can take photos from your camera roll or directly in the app and edit photos with state-of-the-art features like clarity, tint, sharpening, fading, skin one, saturation, contrast, exposure, and temperature. Though the editing tools are great, what’s most impressive are the filters. Users love these filters because they are more subtle than those found on other platforms and add a different look to your photos. Similar to Instagram, you can save your edits to your camera to use on other platforms or upload directly to your own VSCO profile where other users can see your work.

Snapseed

Developed by Nik Software, Snapseed is an editing app can be used for both customized and automatic photo adjustments for color and contrast. This app has all of the standard must-haves for an editor like cropping, frames, and text, but it also has other impressive additions. A few of its most prominent features include being able to create your own custom filters, combine existing filters and edit saving which allows you to “undo” or “redo” actions on an image, and its sharpening feature which doesn’t make your image look “grainy” as some tools can. More recently, Snapseed has added other elements to make their app stand out including lens blur, HDR scape and noir, and glamour glow.

Foodie
