#pictapgo

So the other day I was waiting (as I often am) for one of the girls to get out of school and I was clicking away, editing photos from the last few (holy cow batman, so eventful) weeks. A mom asked me about it – and I was explaining how simple. pick a photo. tap editing. save/go. EASY. If you want more of an explanation you can see my post here about the app.

Point is – except for the fact that it saves significantly smaller of a file than original (still printable, but not as big a file is all) and that you can’t zoom to REALLY see the detail of your adjustments, it is the #1 photo app I use. I love it. I don’t know how I functioned or accepted so many bad iPhone pics before it!

I sure do love it when technology makes things prettier and better… and I don’t have to hassle with editing photos on my laptop before ordering. Good stuff.

Oh and if anyone is wondering – occasionally (quarterly or so?) I hook my phone up to the laptop, pull alllll the photos off except the few I leave on always, and load onto computer by cut/pasting into my photos. Then I sort, delete, edit, and order whatever I want. All the keepers then join my “real” camera photos in back-up-land on an external hard drive.

I like to keep it clean, simple, and I like knowing I’ve printed my pictures so I don’t end up with forgotten moments and stories in a file on a device somewhere. More on that some other time. Right now I’ve got teacher gifts to create!

  1. Thanks for the info. I just added it to my apps. I am in the process of choosing my first dslr camera and am curious as to which one you have and which did you use as an entry level. I am looking at Nikons. Thank you.

  2. Yay! It works for my iPad too! Even tho it doesn’t show up under iPad category in the App Store
