Photoshop Express<\/strong> is basically a lite version of Adobe Photoshop<\/a> that you can use on your iPhone. You can edit a single photo or layer multiple images into collages or composites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The app is full of filters and effects<\/strong> that use sliders to help you find exactly the right settings. You can also apply text, border, or sticker overlays to your images to make memes or add watermarks or captions. In this article, we\u2019ll take a look at all the most exciting features of Photoshop in iPhone<\/strong> and show you how to perform some of the most common photo edits.<\/p>\n\n\n

  1. Get familiar with the panels<\/h2>

    <\/p>\n

    Photoshop Express is divided into three spaces. The Tools Panel<\/em> is at the bottom, the Image Workspace<\/em> displays in the middle, and the more technical Options Panel<\/em> is at the top.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    When you open the app, the Options Panel shows icons like Edit, Mix, Collage, and Retouch. We\u2019ll start with the Edit section, where you can apply effects and filters to a single photo.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>

  2. Load images through Edit option<\/h2>

    <\/p>\n

    Click on Edit<\/em> at the top and then tap the camera, plus sign, or globe icon in the bottom panel to load the image you want to edit. Once the picture from your camera, photo gallery, or network loads up, the Options Panel<\/em> at the top will change to show you the Undo<\/em> and Save<\/em> buttons plus a few more.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    You\u2019ll also see the Tools Panel<\/em> at the bottom of the screen change to show you the most common editing tools. Tap any icon there and a secondary menu will appear just above the bottom menu. Each tool in this menu comes with a slider so you can adjust its intensity<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>

  3. Using filters via the Looks menu<\/h2>\"\"

    <\/p>\n

    The first icon in the bottom panel, showing three intertwined circles, pulls up the filter menu, which Photoshop Express calls Looks<\/em>. The Looks are divided into categories like Nature, B&W, and Duo Tone.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    You\u2019ll find plenty of individual filter options inside each category. The large thumbnail over each one will show you how your photo will look if you apply the filter.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>

  4. Access more effects through Light Leaks<\/h2>\"\"

    The Light Leaks<\/em> icon in the bottom panel looks like two overlapping circles, one white and one black. This menu has an enormous selection of lens flares, raindrops, bokeh, and other fun lighting effects that can spice up your image. Pick one, and the AI will do most of the work<\/strong>. All you have to do is adjust the effect\u2019s size using the slider.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>

  5. Modify size and fit<\/h2>\"\"

    To play around with your photo\u2019s size and fit, tap the icon in the low panel showing two intersecting 90-degree angles. You can crop your picture, change the aspect ratio to adjust its artistic composition, straighten out the horizon, create an upside-down or mirrored version, or correct perspective issues using the Skew tool<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>

  6. Using adjustment tools<\/h2>\"\"

    <\/p>\n

    The bottom toolbar\u2019s next icon, showing two horizontal sliders, gives you access to the app\u2019s adjustment tools. These include Light, Color, Effects, Details<\/em>, and Blur<\/em>.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    The Light<\/em> menu lets you tweak your photo\u2019s highlights, shadows, exposure, and contrast. The Color<\/em> panel lets you adjust the temperature, tint, and saturation.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    In the Effects<\/em> menu, you\u2019ll find whimsical enhancements to bring out specific textures, fade colors, and add fog, grain, or vignette effects for an old-fashioned look. In the Detail category, you can sharpen your image and adjust the amount of noise. The Blur section lets you selectively add different kinds of blur effects to different parts of your pictures to help direct the viewers\u2019 attention.<\/p>\n
