AppsApril#17 PowerSketch

PowerSketch was my first drawing app. By Wondershare, 2012, there is also a PowerCam and Panorama camera app in the set.

Opening screen …

Straight forward and effective.  Magic Shot opens the camera. Flash and camera reversal buttons at the top, filter choices, settings button, effects and gallery access buttons at the bottom.

The Edit button opens Camera Roll or the Gallery.  Remember to flip on the auto save to Camera Roll button – much easier for retrieving files off your phone.  Gallery accesses the in app images.

The Button with 2 arrows up from it opens this screen and provides access to a range of sharing options.

I started with this image …

IMG_1025and played with the options.  Love the way you see the effect in action as you take a photo, no delays while you snap and swap filters.  No processing delays either – its quick!

This is what a range of the filters look like …

Fun!

There is also a PIP filter – picture in picture – that inserts a hand holding a square that holds the effect selected (remainder of photo is as per the original image).  For some strange reason you cannot do this to camera roll photos. Not sure what the issue is there, but it is a neat effect – worth testing out.

The verdict – better than SketchMe in my opinion, and if you like drawing effects – a bit of fun!!

Thanks for visiting and reading this review – hope to see you again tomorrow!! Cheers!
