The best mobile photography photo editing apps are Snapseed, Lightroom, Touch Retouch, After Focus, PicsArt, and Polar. They all have different amazing tools for editing photos with Snapseed and Lightroom being the top two.
Snapseed is a free app by Google. It is not updated frequently, however, it is one of the best. You have whole image and local area-specific editing tools.
Lightroom mobile - 95% of the tools are free requiring a free Adobe account that can be set up inside the app. The texture slider, sharpening and dehaze tools are my favourite. With a paid subscription account, you get access to the masking tools. These are amazing to select the subject, sky, invert, add and subject one mask from another. It is very precise.
TouchRetouch - removes objects... and does it so well. Unlike other apps, you can swipe over and select areas that you want to restore to the original. This allows more precise changes, together with opacity and other tools to make the most precise fixes.
PicsArt is great for overlays, radial blur, dispersion and other unique tools. I use this one for more graphic elements.
After Focus - this app is great for blurring the background on any photo. It is intuitive, easy to use and the gradient tool allows you to blend from no blur at the bottom of the frame to the desired amount of blur toward the top of the frame. This replicates how a dedicated camera works with depth of field.
Polarr - the one tool that I really go to this app for is the fringing tool. You can fix the chromatic aberration and that purple and green fringing issues that you get when you use a zoom lens attachment on a smartphone in high contrast conditions.
