Can I edit photos?

3 min. readlast update: 10.17.2023

Yes, you can edit photos.

Double click the thumbnail of the photo you want to edit. By doing so, the photo becomes larger to have a closer look. 

To open up the Photo Editor, tap the photo again. 

Recent updates have been made to the cropping tool, although very similar, the videos might slightly differ from the actual editor.

There are four tabs in the Photo Editor:

  • Crop
  • Filter
  • Finetune
  • Annotate
  • Sticker

Crop and Zoom

In the Crop tab of the Photo Editor, you can crop your photo by dragging the corners and pinching two fingers together or apart to adjust zoom. 

You'll notice three icons above the photo for additional editing. You can rotate a photo if it's upside down. Or, flip the photo horizontally and vertically if it's a mirrored view.

With these main editing features, you can quickly turn an okay photo into a great photo.

Filter

In the Photo Editor's Filter tab, you can enhance your photos quickly. Tap the desired filter, and you will instantly apply a combination of color effects to your photo to achieve a charming result.

You can choose from:

  • Chrome
  • Fade
  • Mono
  • Noir

Annotate

In the Photo Editor's Annotate tab, you can add some creativity to your photo with drawings, shapes, and text. 

Sharpie

The Draw tool allows you to draw on the photo with a paintbrush. You can choose from the color palette below the photo or mix your color using a red, green, and blue (RGB) slider. Tap the line width button to adjust the thickness and style of your paintbrush.

Arrow

With the Arrow tool, you can draw an arrow. Tap the Line Width button to adjust your arrow's thickness and style, and tap the End/Start button to determine if it has one or two pointers and their style.

Text

The Text tool allows you to add a message to your photo. You can choose your text's color font, font style, and size. Click on the photo to add a text box, drag to make the box larger/smaller, and a secondary text box will appear in which you can type your message. Click Confirm to save your text.

Rectangle and Elipse

The Rectangle and Ellipse shape tools allow you to draw shapes. Drawing shapes is handy if you have a busy photo and need a solid shape to place behind the text to be more legible. 

Sticker

The sticker button allows you to add emoticons to your photos. It also lets you add images from your device on top of the existing image. This feature is really neat as it'll let you create a collage of photos within the app, here's an easy start: 

Upload a blank white or blank image to your media gallery. Edit that image and click on Sticker. Now click on Select Image, from here you can pick whichever images you want to add, upload them and then have fun placing them within that first blank image! Before you know it you've made your own collage that can be displayed within the VidDay.
