SUNSET BLVD, graphic help

❀ apps i use

So these are pretty much all the editing apps I use on the regular. Otherwise, these are my go-tos! I'll break down what each one is for and why you might want to download it too 💅🏼✨

✦ MAIN EDITING APPS:

📁 Documents - Lifesaver. Use this to download YouTube, Twitter, and TikTok videos without the watermark! I also use it to download PNGs for covers. Huge help.

📂 Files - The default app, but crucial. Any downloads like fonts or PSDs will go here.

🎞 Giphy - I use this to crop, resize, and trim GIFs (especially for intro layouts). You can use ezgif.com, too-but I like switching between both.

📸 Google Photos - My holy grail. It backs up all my pics so I can free up space on my phone. Need to save 500+ pics of Tom Holland? I got you. 💅🏼

🌙 VN - I use this to trim or combine video clips (especially TikToks or YouTube snippets). Simple and effective.

🅿️ Phonto - This app is everything. I use it for fonts, watermarking, and even filters sometimes. Must-have for cover and graphic work.

📸 Photolayers - One word: PNGs. This is the app I use to make my own. It's a must if you're picky or want clean results. Especially helpful when I was running my cover shop!

📷 Picsart - I know this app gets mixed reviews, but I swear by it. It has almost the same tools, plus more. Great for covers, edits, and everything in between!

🎨 Polarr - LOVE this one for custom filters. You can create your own or use (and credit!) other people's filters. A good filter can totally tie your whole look together. 🤌🏼

💫 Vivid - Have a low-quality pic you need to use? This app fixes it up beautifully.

✦ EXTRA APPS:

📱 Social Dummy - Used to be great for making fake social media layouts (for edits/fics/etc). Sadly, it's not available for download anymore unless you already had it!
