Testing photo editing apps: "Filterra"

"Filterra" is available free of charge in the iOS App Store for iPad and iPhone.The app offers a large number of editing tools - including lighting effects and filters, but also special "beauty" tools for selfies. In order to activate all filters, you have to choose one of the paid subscription options.

 

There are 30 effects available in the trial version. With filters from the categories "Nature" and "Skinbase" you can especially improve landscapes and selfies. "Filterra" also convinces with its customization options, that can be used to change the texture and saturation of a photo, for example. In addition, the app documents the tools used and makes changes easier.

One of Filterra's big drawbacks is that you can't be very creative yourself. Despite the large selection of editing options, the effects and filters are applied after a single click on the image. Tools like "Eraser" or "Pencil" are completely missing. Edited photos cannot be saved in the app. In addition, if you want to save a finished picture, you first have to watch a video or subscribe to the Pro version to make the "Filterra" watermark disappear.
