2026-07-07	El*****	I was not a longtime Snapseed user when the new overhaul came out, but I've been enjoying using it a lot! I really like the camera feature allowing me to shoot photos baked with the look I want. In-camera editing is a surprisingly rare feature on android, and the sheer number of editing tools included in this app is a treasure trove. And all of these features for free?? As a photographer who's on his phone all day, this app is so much fun. No need for my other camera and a laptop, just snap away

2026-07-06	Ev*****	the update ruined a perfectly good app. Now, unfortunately, it looks like something that is meant to appeal to an ADHD-afflicted fruit fly on a sugar high, complete with childish animations and a hopelessly cluttered UI.

2026-07-06	Ra*****	Bad UI change. Doing everything seems to take more clicking and movements. The workflow has become sluggish and it messed up what was used to a clean and efficient way. UNINSTALLED.
