Hi everyone!
Snapseed is so back. The Android and iOS apps have both been updated to 4.0.
The new direction is closer to a full mobile photo workflow: shoot with film-inspired looks, keep the originals, re-edit later, mask regions quickly, and apply styles across batches.
It still feels like Snapseed — fast, tactile, and free!
Snapseed has been my go-to for quick mobile edits for years. The fact that it's free and does 90% of what Lightroom Mobile does is wild.
Curious what "seriously better" means in this update — is it more AI-powered editing features, or refinements to the existing tools? The selective editing and healing brush were already great. If they've added proper batch editing or better export options, that alone would be worth the update for content creators who need to process thumbnails and social images quickly.
I used to use Snapseed all the time back in the day... it was great. Hope it holds up.
