Photo Filter Pro 1.0.0.0

Take snapshots and enhance your pictures with cool effects on your Windows Phone
The customization of digital photographs is a pretty common activity that many users like to carry out on the go, especially when capturing the pictures with a mobile device.

For those who are only looking for some nice filters to apply onto the images stored inside their Windows Phone handsets, Photo Filter Pro offers a few neat effects that can be added on the spot.

Nicely structure layout, with decent graphics

The looks of this application are quite clean and all the commands and functions are neatly placed inside the main screen. The preview area for the loaded pictures is a bit smaller than in other similar apps, but it is sufficient to help you make an idea about how the output image will look like.

Unfortunately, there are no zooming or panning controls you could use to examine the photos up close. Also, another annoyance comes from the large ad banner placed in the lower side of the screen.

Load pics or capture them,

then

add the filters on the go

Photo Filter Pro is able to use any of the images you keep inside your dedicated folders onto your local storage and you can also use it to acquire new snapshots from the phone's built-in camera(s).

The actual processing is very quick for most filters and you only have to tap on the corresponding button to view the modification come into effect immediately inside the preview area.

For a couple of effects, though, applying the change will take a bit longer, especially in the case of the "Oily" filter that needs a few seconds to settle in. Some other effects that will be applied with a small delay are "Magic", "Water" and "Paint".

In case you want to turn back the change and bring back the original pic onto the canvas, this application puts at your fingertips a special button suggestively called "Revert".

A minor letdown is that Photo Filter Pro doesn't support adding several effect one on top of the other, which would have made the picture a lot more interesting and visually appealing.

Also, should you care to share the edited images with your friends, there is no possibility of doing that from inside the app. Thus, you will have to save the photo and send them out from the "Saved Pictures" folder.

Bottom Line
Design / UI7
 

The aspect of this application is pretty nice and simple, but the large advertisement that is displayed inside the GUI takes away some of the good feel.

Function5
 

The number of filters and features included inside this utility is small and while some are applied instantly, others take a few moments to load.

Security10
 

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

Battery5
 

The consistent power consumption of this app will drain the battery in a relatively short time on prolonged use.

Price9
 

All the functions can be used freely, without having to pay anything, but the ads inside are a constant bother.

Compatibility9
 

The application is designed to function on Windows Phone handsets powered by version 8 or higher of the OS.
