Photo Editing

Today we are bringing photo editing to our picplz mobile apps using the fantastic tools and technology from Aviary. Now, in addition to the effects already in picplz, you can crop and rotate your photos, adjust the contrast or saturation, and even add text or draw annotations! We are launching with 15 photo editing tools, and all are available via the new Edit button found on the Preview screen in picplz. 

Let’s see what it looks like. Tapping the new Edit button brings up the Aviary photo editor view:

In this example, I really want to focus on the flower so I tap on the crop tool and with a couple quick gestures draw out my desired rectangle:

After hitting Apply, the Aviary editing engine works its magic, and then I’m back at the editing view. Now I want to brighten things up a bit so I swipe along the bottom to reveal more tools, and find the Brightness tool.

I tap on Brightness and choose the version I like:

After I’m done editing, I’m taken back to the normal picplz Preview screen.

From here I can choose one of the standard picplz filters, hit Next, and share my photo. It’s that easy! Both picplz 2.4 for Android and picplz 1.8 for iPhone are available now. Requires Android 2.2+ or iOS 4.3+. Take it for a spin and let us know what you think. We are very excited about working with Aviary and hope that you love the new photo editing tools as much as we do!
