InstaBlender 1.6.0.1

Mix together two digital images to obtain a fine looking picture that you can save and share on the fly
Combining photos into a collage or other kind of montage can be a really fun activity, especially if the right tools are at hand. Windows Phone users can try their hand at various such tasks since there are many utilities made just for such purposes, all waiting to be discovered in the Store.

InstaBlender is one of these apps and it offers a new perspective on image editing by proposing an interesting method of merging a couple of photos into a single pic and editing it in detail.

Nicely designed front-end

The interface of this application looks very well and has a nice feel to it, especially thanks to the seamless navigation through the numerous menus and tools it comes with. The commands are all neatly placed close at hand, so working with the images is downright smooth.

The preview is very responsive and as soon as a modification is made, you will see it immediately come into effect. Nonetheless, here and there an occasional prompt to rate the application will bother you for a couple of seconds.

Modify digital images with a lot of dedicated functions

The range of tools packed into this application is impressive, to say the least. After making the selection for the two images that will be used, you can modify them individually, thanks to the built-in "Photo Editor", which contains everything from brightness, contrast, hue, saturation or sharpness adjustments, to orientation, text and special effect options.

Choosing the image blending mode is one of the nicest parts of the process, as InstaBlender offers a good array of variants you can try and fine tune to perfection with a simple slider. Once this stage is complete, you can move on to the editing area, where the picture combination can be further enhanced.

You can add colored borders to the picture, change its orientation or add some text overlays with a few taps. Other additions include exposure, light, saturation, contrast and brightness calibration, as well as applying various effects and filters, distortions and even HDR transformations.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
 

The nice looks of this utility are doubled by the efficient placement of the tools and commands, as well as by the smooth navigation and great responsiveness of the preview area. The random prompts for rating the app appear seldom and are not too intrusive.

Function10
 

Thanks to a very solid feature pack that includes loads of tools, effects and adjustments in the two editing modes, one for each picture and another for the mixture of images, InstaBlender is well worth the top marks it receives in this area.

Security10
 

Very discreet and without requesting access to personal information stored onto the phone, this app is safe to use and deserves to get all the points here.

Battery8
 

Even if its task is to perform advanced image processing, InstaBlender remains in good terms with the system resources, as it needs only a small to moderate amount of battery power to function properly.

Price10
 

A most valuable app by all standards, this utility offers a lot of features and a friendly interface free of any cost. The rare prompts that appear while the application is running barely scratch the very good impression.

Compatibility8
 

The utility will run well on any Windows Phone 8 and above device, as it needs only a standard screen resolution and access to the multimedia libraries.
