HDR FX Photo Editor 1.7.4

Create amazing HDR photos, add filters and adjust colors using this nice photography app
There are many photography apps on Google Play Store, some of them really come with nice effects and features, while others are more simplistic and only offer a few features.

There are other apps that focus only on a few tools. HDR FX Photo Editor comes with multiple HDR effects that you can use on your pictures together with plenty of other tools to enhance your images.

Sleek and easy-to-use interface

The app doesn't come with a tutorial or any kind of instructions showing new users how to navigate inside and access all its features. It launches directly with the home screen, featuring access to the gallery and camera for snapping pictures.

You also have the option of checking out the developer's social networking accounts or changing the destination folder for output pictures. Other than that the app doesn't offer anymore settings or customization options and each time you import a picture from your gallery it prompts you with a message to download another app. The message still appears even if you installed said app.

Edit pictures using all tools provided inside the app

Whenever you import a picture from the gallery, HDR FX Photo Editor lets you pick the size, but full resolution is only available if you upgrade to the premium version for 5.03$. The pro version is also free of banner and popup ads, which are truly annoying in the free version of the app.

HDR FX lets you apply various effects to your pictures, but frankly we've come across many other photography apps that have nicer filters than this one. Still, it's nice that the app lets you pick from 17 overlay and bokeh effects.

The app also comes with before and after icons, so you can see what changes you've made to your pictures. You can also use the app to create collages, it comes with multiple tools and templates for you to choose from.

Adjust colors and add frames

Other than that it lets you add multiple frames to your pictures, but it's quite limited in this area. Still, HDR effects are available, which few other apps have. It comes with 50 HDR effects and lets you crop images and make gamma correction.

Contrast, brightness, saturation, tint and opacity adjustment is also available and the app comes with vignette filters for your photos. You can also rotate photos left and right or flip them horizontal or vertical.

When you're done editing, you can save pictures to your device and share them on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook. But the app doesn't let you pick the image format and unless you upgrade to premium, image resolution will be lower.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
 

The interface is okay, with a nice background image which isn't HD but it does have some settings and a menu.

Function8
 

It's a good app filled with HDR effects, but filters are quite boring and it comes with few frames and editing options.

Security8
 

No online registration and the app needs few permissions from your phone, so it shouldn't pose any privacy issues.

Battery3
 

Consumption is a bit high, keep an eye on this one as it can drain your battery.

Price7
 

Filled with ads and suggestions of other apps, remove them by purchasing the premium version for 5.03$.

Compatibility8
 

It should work on devices running Android version 2.3 or later, making it accessible to many users.
