Only had a quick look into it, and nevertheless quickly got some very interesting results but it did feel as though it wasn't as fluid or flawless in its execution/usability as the iPad version, this being in some part due of course to the fact that the mobile version really works beautifully with the touch interface. Looks a bit rough around the edges and just feels a touch clumsy to use.

It also feels not quite as finished or as polished in appearance as the iPad version. Interesting because it's very similar indeed to the mobile version, yet somehow nowhere near as nice to use. Incidentally, I got hold of a copy of Snapseed for the Mac last night, and it's quite interesting to use coming from using it on the iPad. I've got quite a few different things to look into right now. Many thanks to all of you for continuing to share your thoughts and suggestions it's really very much appreciated. Hoping that the Nik suite might have something similar. One of the things that I like about it is how when using a particular effect or filter, one can tap on shuffle and cycle through tons of different ways of applying it to the photo, as well as tone down(and up)things in real-time and see the image change accordingly, as in the ambience feature.

However, from what I've read, even though some folks did use desktop Snapseed and like it, it appears that for a lot who really like the mobile version, the desktop for whatever reason wasn't as roundly admired. Went to look, found it had recently been killed off. After getting to grips with some of the subtleties of its interface I wondered if their wasn't a desktop version that perhaps(amongst other things)wouldn't constrain me to only being able to save into jpg. Yeah, Google killed off desktop Snapseed a couple of months ago I think.Īs I said, I only just became aware of snapseed on the iPad this past week when watching a few folks demonstrating their workflow on youtube videos, and immediatly downloaded it.
