There are a number of different photo editing applications that are available for users of the various mobile platforms and the great thing is that a lot of them are available free, and today we looking at some of the best photo apps for Android editors.

Photo Editor is promised to be a simple and easy to use application for photo manipulation with users being able to adjust the colour, rotate, crop, resize, add effects, frame, and even draw onto photos. There is an easy pinch and zoom interface to help users to get the look that they are after, and creations can be saved to your SD card, gallery, set as a wallpaper, or shared via the likes of Facebook and Twitter.

In a recent update support has been added for more languages along with some bug fixes plus some other improvements, and Photo Editor can be found on Google Play. Next up we have the BeFunky Photo Editor application that promises lots of effects that can’t be found elsewhere.

The app even allows users to add text to their images and there is the option of undoing any changes made to images, and each picture can be made public or private. There are 29 free effects included in the download along with some powerful editing tools at your disposal, and new Summer Effects, new fonts and some bug fixes have recently been added to the app that can be downloaded here.
