4Blend HDR 3.0.0.0
Those who decided to put to good use the on-board camera of their Windows Phone can enjoy the services of a smart assistant called 4Blend HDR. It is trained to provide a variety of effects and adjustments that can be used for beautifying the pictures as they are being taken.
Clean interface optimized for practical use
The app offers an organized layout, with all the functions readily accessible from the left, right and upper sides of the screen, while most of the space is reserved to the live view from the phone's camera.
The operational commands displayed over the live image are made transparent so as to avoid obstructing the view. Also, adjusting the parameters and the navigation through the menus have a smooth feel at all times.
Occasionally you will come across some reminders that prompt you to rate and review the application, but these are not to intrusive and can be easily dismissed.
Add effects and enhancements to the photos you take with the on-board camera
4Blend HDR is well equipped and manages to provide a wide variety of scene options and detailed calibrations. The default HDR effect can be accompanied by any number of other enhancements chosen from the left side pane.
The advanced commands for controlling the camera parameters are very easy to work with, thanks to the radial sliders which make selecting the desired value a breeze. Also, it supports both front and rear cameras, which means that you can easily switch from normal photography mode to taking a selfie in no time.
Optimal control, even with voice activated functionality
This application is well prepared for several usage scenarios, so, in case you decide to use a fixed stand or tripod, the ability to operate the app with vocal commands will surely prove very useful.
The effects can be used in batches, while the post-processing functions that are supported by this utility make it more easy to obtain in the end a high-quality personalized photograph.
Unfortunately, you will not be able to enjoy the complete set of functions until a purchase is made, because 4Blend HDR has several cool features locked.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
The carefully thought layout and the seamless navigation through the commands are some of the main assets of 4Blend HDR. |
Function9
There is a wide variety of options at the user's fingertips and the manual adjustments for gamma, white balance, focus, ISO, exposure and time are an important advantage. |
Security10
The user's personal information and the data on the phone remain untouched by 4Blend HDR, as it mainly needs to access the camera, multimedia libraries, microphone and the movement and directional sensor. |
Battery4
This app is by no means light on the system resources, much as it would be expected for a utility that performs advanced image processing. |
Price8
The main functions of this app are offered free of cost, but there are many features and effects locked until the paid package is acquired. |
Compatibility8
4Blend HDR is targeting Windows Phone 8 and higher handsets, with no special requirements. |
