SNAPSEED FOR MAC REVIEW SOFTWARE

I just went to check if restrictions were on and they were, so I changed the setting and now I can upload photos and edit them again. Here’s my findings:įor a while my app was freezing and then I couldn’t upload photos to it at all. If my new findings prove solid I will change it again to four stars, because I do love Snapseed and hope it is as strong as it once was, but I wanna make sure it’s running smoothly. I’m changing my rating after discovering something and remembering something else since writing my former review. Snapseed and the people who depended on it fell victim to that. Google obviously does some great things but they also do some very terrible things to their competition. At this point it’s doing a disservice to anybody who wants once relied on it or thought it was still a contender in the Mobile photo editing world.

It’s really sad to see what Google did here and I don’t know why they didn’t just take it off the market if that’s what they wanted. Anything you bring into Snapseed should be thrown out afterwards so you don’t ever mistake it for a decent file. It just creates a low res JPEG preview instead but gives no warning of that. It hasn’t been updated in years so forget using raw images from any newer cameras. It will muddy up all the detail in saturated areas, totally blow any highlights and bring noise in the shadows. Snapseed is destroying your images and you’ll never bring them back.

Snapseed is absolute garbage now! If you’re using it to edit your photos then you should know, even if they look alright to your eyes on your 2 inch screen, they are not.

A few years ago it was purchased by Google along with the rest of Nik software and I’m pretty sure they intentionally sabotaged it. It was the first app to support raw photos and generally just had a good selection of tools.

For years this app was my go to mobile editing app. Don’t be fooled by the positive reviews, they are outdated.
