Get more likes for your outdoor shots! A special filter gives your photos deeper colors and more definition, simply and immediately. City skies become a deep, radiant blue, and ordinary grass and and trees are transformed into verdant idylls. Your social media friends will wish they were out with you. Why does this app exist? I started retouching all my landscape photos with photo editors, but got tired of going through the same laborious process every time. So now I have an app that does those steps automatically, and I decided to share it with you, too! Note that the app is tuned to produce great outdoor photos only - it's not recommended for indoor use. • Real-time viewfinder means instantly seeing the final result, without breaking your flow. No extra steps, retakes, or messing about in editors. • Only one click will save the photo to your camera roll - it works exactly like the in-built camera app! • Saves image at full camera resolution and quality. • Simple slider to increase the effect. • No glitter and unicorn stickers: just a stylish, minimal app that takes great photos, quickly. • Unlock an extra contrast slider for extra control. Supported by ads, so I can keep making free apps, but you can also buy extra image tuning functionality, which will remove the ads.
