Apps You Need To Up Your Instagram Game

We all know that one Instagram user who has an aesthetically pleasing feed. Each picture is beautiful and blends perfectly with the theme of the others. They really are just ruling social media. These certain users definitely inspire you to up your Instagram game.

With these apps, you can do just that. Photo editing is such an important part of creating killer content, and these applications help you achieve your desired look with ease.

1. VSCO

VSCO is an app that offers not only countless filters but also great editing devices. My personal favorites are the options for saturation- which really emphasizes the coloring of a photo, contrast, and grain. You can also change the brightness.

Filters are categorized by the main colors they provide, from red to purple tones. You can also filter by the vibrancy, warm or cool tones, among many other options.

This is a great app to really perfect the coloring of your picture.

VSCO also gives you the option to create an account and to share your photos with friends! You can look through the profile of other users and the photos that they have posted or reposted.

3. Afterlight 2

Afterlight 2 is similar to VSCO in that there is an abundance of options for filters and editing tools you can apply to your photo. However, Afterlight 2 does cost $2.99 to download.

Though there are filters already created, you can customize them to your liking.

You can save the filters that you create and use them at a different time, which saves a lot of time and also helps to maintain uniformity throughout your posts.
