Photo Apps You Need

I love apps. We all love apps. And a couple of months ago I posted about my favorite apps {here}, but since then, there are two more apps that I love. love. love. and that I think you need too! The first one is my new go-to photo app -- PicTapGo. This photo app was created by the amazing people behind Totally Rad! - a totally rad company that makes software for photographers, including the best actions for photoshop ever created (that's another story)! Anyway, I have been waiting for them to release an app for about a year now and my wishes were granted at the beginning of the month! So what makes this app different than the afterglow's and picfx's of the world? PicTapGo was designed with a photographer in mind. It adapts to your style, it learns your favorite photo effects and it allows you to create and save filter recipes. It's hands down the best photo app I've come across! Read more reviews {here}! 

The second app I'm loving right now is called Fast Camera. Sometimes something so awesome happens that you want to take a million photos at once just to get the perfect one. Or maybe you are obsessed with making animated gifs? If so, you are going to love Fast Camera. Simply fire up the app, adjust your settings as you see fit. You can include a countdown (perfect for when you want to set your phone up on a tripod and jump in the pic), limit the number of pictures it takes (it gets to 1000 pretty quickly!), specify the time between photos, and more. Once you’ve taken a series of shots, head to the review screen. Delete photos you don’t want, and select ones you want to keep. Export them to your camera roll, create a video or make an animated gif. Genius!

 I hope you enjoy!!! PS. Any new apps you are loving right now? xoxo.

New FAV App: [Over]

The iPhone app {Over} has officially won me over! It is a beautiful [and simple] way to add text to your photos. I know there are other apps that allow you to do this, but I promise you this one has some of the most amazing fonts ever... 225 of them to be exact! 

It's so easy -- all you do is import a photo, add text, move it around, and edit the font, color and size. Once you love your beautiful typography on your awesome photo, you can share it on twitter, facebook, instagram, tumblr, email or simply save it to your camera roll. It's that easy! It's $1.99 for the app, but I promise you it is worth every penny of the two bucks! :) Check it out...

'Over' has officially moved to page one of my apps on my iPhone (which is where all of my daily/ favorite apps live)... my other favorites include [not in any particular order]:

Row One: the obvious favorites... {Facebook}, {Twitter}, {Foursquare}, and {Instagram} are daily scrolls for me! {Pages} allows me to manage my blog's facebook page; {Feeddler RSS} is handy for scrolling through my favorite blogs; I prefer the {Tumblr} app vs. the actual website (much easier to "reblog" from); and another obvious favorite, {Pinterest}... though I only use the app to scroll, not to pin.

Row Two: some of my photo favs: {Square Ready} is perfect for eliminating the "black borders" on photos you just can't make perfectly square; {Picfx} is another amazing photo app for addt'l filters or lighting effects; {Pic Stitch} is the best for adding multiple photos together in a collage; and {Over}, mentioned above. For a little bit of organization: {Teux Deux} is my absolute favorite and can-not-live-without app - it's my daily "To Do" List... and I live by it; {Dropbox} allows me to automatically back up my iPhone photos right to my dropbox account; {Lemon Wallet} organizes all of my money accounts for me; and {Seamless} allows me to order delivery right from my hand.

I love learning about new apps... what are some of your favorites? xxoo.
