APP-Y FRIDAY: PHOTO BLING

I hinted around a week or so ago on my social media pages that I was working on a HUGE PROJECT for Inked & Sassy!

I knew it would have to become a series for sure but I was not EXACTLY sure how I would plug it in...

While lying in bed last night it dawned on me!

So...

Welcome to

 

Yesterday I shared with you all a wish list from my "could be" obsession Subscription Boxes so today it is only fair to share with you all my FULL FLEDGED obsession and that is APPS!

When I counted them this morning I have a total of 222 of them things on my phone!

I promise I have them categorized for your convince sanity!

So without further ado...

HERE WE GO!

  

I wanted my first one to be something that I used ALL the time besides email (boring..but will be covered later)

So why not adding some bling, personality, effects what not to your photos!

(apps are in alphabetical order, not by preference)

I am not one to purchase apps to be honest but I have to say that this was a VERY well spent dollar! It is so easy to use and I have to say I love the simplicity of it.

Example of me using A Beautiful Mess

What I DON'T love:

They have not offered any new designs or new in app purchase add ons in FOREVER...

Though I do LOVE this app I have to say that it is no longer my go to app for adding flair, they have not offered anything new in a VERY long time so I only use it if i know there is a font, doodle, or something to that nature I don't have on one of my other apps.

BeFunky

What I LOVE:

Again this is a purchased app, but well worth the $2

 (stay tuned to the series and I will show you how I got the PRO and paid NOTHING)

EVERYTHING! As a photographer this is the closest I have cam eot finding something I can edit my images on like I am used to doing. If you start with the basic version I HIGHLY suggest that if you are going to purchase something just go ahead and download the pro and save yourself some money! 

Example of me using BeFunky Pro

What I DON'T love:

There are not a whole lot of my style stickers etc.

 Other then that I am set!

Instagram

I hear what you are saying...

Instagram is not a "bling" app

SURE it IS! If I could have the filters instagram offers in one of my other apps I would be ECSTATIC!

Notta

What I LOVE:

 I have to say that I really do love the fonts, stickers etc. 

I honestly combine the use of BeFunky and Rhonna together A LOT...

Example of me using Rhonna Designs

 What I DON'T love:

The price! UGH! I am all about FREE as a mom of three. You could quickly spend a small fortune between the app and all your MUST have additions.

What I LOVE:

It is TOTALLY FREE! 

No matter if they stick you with a million new additions a day they are ALWAYS FREE

and not to  mention some of these are AMAZING...

Example of me using Studio

What I DON'T:

I was a HUGE studio user for a LONG time but I don't know if it is because my phone is ancient  older version, or if it is the platform but recently I can't get it to work at all...MAJOR BUMMER

Are you familiar with any of these personally? If not which one will you try?

If you have one that YOU love I would LOVE to hear about it :) 

Hope everyone has an APP-Y Friday!
