Masks 2.2.0.0
For those who use their Windows Phone devices as tools of choice for capturing and editing the images, an application like Masks could quickly become a trusty friend due to its original capabilities.
Good looking and very responsive interface
This app offers a neat front-end that may be centered on ease of use and practicality, but it doesn't leave the visual appeal aside for a moment.
If at first glance the GUI may seem dark and not too friendly, this impression will change in a few moments, as soon as you load a picture and get to work. The commands and functions are all placed conveniently, so you can access and use them straight away.
There is enough room for the image preview inside the generous workspace and the display is updated promptly, as soon as a change is made.
Quick mask selection and customization
This application prompts you to pick the desired mask as soon as the picture is loaded and you have at your disposal a lot of preset shapes to choose from. Should you care to have even more, a purchase will unlock all the available designs.
With the shape singled-out and set into place, you can resize it and change its place with intuitive touch gestures before moving on to the other image editing tasks.
Pick the filter and configure it on the spot
Masks comes equipped with a variety of effects you can apply either to the covered area around the selected shape or to the main selection.
There is also a handy slider control that is meant to facilitate the adjustment of the transparency level for the filter you opted for.
Some basic editing features and fast sharing
The effects are their personalization options are not alone as Masks has a quick switch for changing the active area, namely the foreground or background of the image and mask combination.
Mirroring and flipping the image can also be done with a single tap on the corresponding button hosted in the menu placed in the upper side of the screen.
Once the work is complete, you have the possibility to share the output to Fhotoroom through a third-party app, save the image locally or share it using the well-known methods: via SMS, email or social networks.

Bottom Line
Design / UI9
The nicely crafted front-end, with its very functional layout and smart placement of the functions scores very well from the visual perspective. |
Function8
Users can perform a wide variety of customizations to each picture they select, but the image editing features are almost entirely missing. |
Security9
The app seems pretty safe to have installed as it only needs to peek into the phone identity area for some reason. |
Battery4
Masks will take up quite a bit of power, so the battery usage is pretty high all the time this application is running. |
Price9
This utility provides a lot of handy features free of costs and without any nuisances, while unlocking all the shapes will need a purchase. |
Compatibility9
In order to put this application to the test a Windows Phone 8 or higher handset will be needed, without other requirements. |
