“Photoshop Express” is available for Android and iOS - for free. The app offers a wide range of preset filters and tools – it’s basically a stripped down version of manufacturer Adobe’s professional photo editing software. The tools work very accurately, making for fine looking results – in case the original photo is good enough. We especially liked the app’s “Collage” function and the huge amount of text options. With more than 50 million downloads on the Google Playstore, "Photoshop Express" is one of the most popular photo apps worldwide.

Top 3 Cons:
