PicsArt offers a rich and highly accessible collection of photo-editing and collaging tools for consumer photographers. To turn them off - and to have the video editor, plus more tools, filters and content - you have to buy a premium subscription for $11.99 for a single month or $55.99/year. However, ads for PicsArt premium pop up frequently (and annoyingly) in the middle of editing processes. In-app tutorials are easy to follow, and challenges prompt users to submit their creations based on a specific type of edit or a theme winners are selected by community vote.

You can use Remix Chat to share and collaboratively edit photos with the 150 million monthly users of PicsArt, or only with your friends. The full-featured camera module includes pre-capture effects and photo tools. In addition, you can quickly select or create fun stickers, combine your pictures into highly customizable collages, add artistic text and share. It provides lots of creative control, excellent image-editing tools and a large variety of attractive filters.
