Rookie by Oleg Frolov 1.6

Edit your pictures easily using this neat application on your phone
People like to snap all sort of pictures with their phones, especially when they're on vacation. Fortunately, there are many photo editors on Google Play Store, one of them is Rookie by Oleg Frolov.

It's a nice app that lets you edit your pictures, add filters and enhance color before sharing them with friends online. It needs some improvements but it does have a fluent UI with lots of tools at hand.

Sleek interface with lots of features

The app doesn't come with a tutorial which is quite inconvenient, but you wouldn't really need any tips since the UI has everything you need at hand. It comes with a settings menu letting users pick the image resolution, have the app save the original file and adjust aspect ratio.

All of these options are displayed in a settings menu on the right. The app doesn't let users pick the output folder, nor does it have any other settings or changes that you can do to the UI and the app's functions. The home screen provides you access to two sections inside the app, the camera and the gallery with pictures stored on your device.

Edit pictures using neat tools

The whole layout behind the app is quite intuitive, you first pick the picture and then choose the tools that you might want to use in order to edit it. Users can pick from a whole variety of filters that they can add to their pictures, simply swipe the screen left to check them out.

The filters are quite unique, so you won't come across another app that has the same filters. Other than that, the app lets users add all sort of overlays on their pictures, it provides them with lots of options.

More features

The app comes with the option of adding all sort of shapes to your image, so you could tap into your creative side. In addition, you can add frames to your pictures, adjust the brightness of photos, contrast and vignette. Other than that, it doesn't come with many tools or options, but you may adjust aspect ratio or rotate images.

The app also lets you add blur, adjust temperature and make some HDR enhancements. There's also a section filled with all sort of stickers that you can add to your screen and an icon that lets you return to the original image.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
 

The interface is nice, with plenty of features at hand and some settings under the side menu on the right.

Function7
 

It works just fine and has some really nice filters, but it would have been nice if the app displayed the names of tools so you wouldn't be confused.

Security9
 

It needs access to only a few areas of your phone, so you don't need to worry about privacy issues.

Battery1
 

Consumption is ridiculously high for a photography app, so keep an eye on resources when using this app.

Price6
 

It filled with all sort of annoying popup ads that really test your patience, but you can remove them if you pay 0.99$.

Compatibility8
 

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