Photo Effect New 1.0.0.0

Quick personalization for any digital picture stored onto your phone or freshly captured
When it comes to the customization of images taken with the on-board camera of mobile devices, many users prefer to enlist the help of specialize utilities that can get the job done faster and with optimal results.

Those who are interested in adding an extra touch of color or in changing other parameters of their pictures have at their disposal quite a lot of utilities and Photo Effect New is one of the Windows Phone tools that offers some cool filters.

Functionality over good looks

This application comes with a pretty simple appearance that consist mostly of the live view from the main camera and the preview of the captured snapshot when in the editing mode.

The area where you can see how the selected filters look like onto the loaded pic is well-sized. The small thumbnails that showcase the effects in the lower side of the screen use a default image and not the one you have queued for processing.

customization

Photo Effect New is ready to take pictures on the spot and then apply the desired enhancements, but it is equally well suited for handling images that are already stored inside your phone's image library.

After selecting the pic or capturing a fresh one to tinker with, inside the workspace you can view how the modifications are applied in real time. Unfortunately, there are no zooming or panning controls you could use to examine the photos up close.

Add filters and save pics on the fly

The application offers just over a dozen filters that you can try on the selected pictures and they include auto levels, exposure enhancement, negative or blur effects. The processing time is very short, so as soon as you tap on any of the filters, they will be applied immediately.

The application offers over two dozen filters that you can try on the selected pictures and they include lomo, antique, paint, several types of monocolor effects, sharpness, rotation and many more. The processing time is very short, so as soon as you tap on any of the filters, they will be applied immediately.

The great thing about Photo Effect New is that it supports adding several effects onto the same image, which means you can obtain some really amazing results from any plain old picture. In case you want to revert the changes and deactivate some effects, simply tap them for a second time and they will be erased from the project.

Bottom Line
Design / UI7
 

The utility offers a decent GUI, with less appealing graphics but a good organization of the commands and a neat preview.

Function5
 

There are enough filters in store and several of them can be applied onto the same image, but Photo Effect New doesn't offer anything besides that.

Security10
 

This application is perfectly safe to install and use as it doesn't come close any sensitive areas of the system.

Battery7
 

When used for longer periods of time, the app will need a little more power to function, so the battery usage will go past moderate.

Price10
 

The feature set comes completely free of cost and there are no nuisances like ads or prompts inside the utility.

Compatibility9
 

Ready to function on any handset powered by Windows Phone 8 or above, Photo Effect New doesn't need anything else.
