Snapseed has improved a lot from the time it has been launched. I searched for a good tutorial and didn’t find one with the latest version. Hence, I’m writing this post and I’m going to let you know how I edited a backlit flower photograph shot against the sun.

How to edit a photo using the latest Snapseed app?

After installing the app on your mobile, tap the icon to launch it.

 

Tap anywhere and your Gallery opens.

 

 

You can either take a photo and start editing or choose one from your mobile phone.

 

Choose the photo and tap Use.

 

Tap the Pen icon to start editing.

 

You will see what Snapseed allows you to do on your photo.

The tools are:

Tune Image – you can adjust Brightness, Contrast, Saturation, Ambiance, Highlights, Shadows, and Warmth.

 

We would be touching: Tune Image, Details, and Curves. Tap the Tick icon on the right-bottom to apply the settings on the photo.

 

 

Use the Curves tool to enhance your photo. Here, I’ve increased brightness.

To see a before and after, tap the icon on the top-right.

Tap Save, and then tap your required option.
