Paid and Top Free categories there to help.There are things you can do to filter the winners from the wannabes
Google builds a list of apps it recommends for you based on your previous downloads, so that's often a good place to start.You can also
filter by new releases if you just want to see the latest things to hit the store
Or, if you want something similar to an app you already have, search for that app and see what comes up.And of course using user reviews and
ratings is an essential part of ensuring the apps you download are high quality

Lens DistortionsFree + US$0.99/£0.99 monthly subscription“The best effects are the ones no one knows you added.” So says the intro
video to Lens Distortions, and it has a point.Rather than flashy, gimmicky effects and photo filters, Lens Distortions has a selection of
natural, true to life ones that look like they could have been captured by the camera itself.These include sunlight, rain, snow and fog
effects, so tend to be most suited to outdoor shots, but they look convincing and there’s a selection of different looks in each
category.Once you’ve applied a filter you can tweak it by adjusting the brightness, saturation, contrast and more, and add extra layers so
you can apply more than one filter at a time.The interface is slick and intuitive, and your edited photos can be saved to your phone or
shared with various social media and cloud storage apps.You get 40 filters for free at time of writing, but for a $0.99/£0.99 monthly
subscription you can unlock additional filter packs and 215 premium filters
