Pick Your Poison
Choose Snapseed if...
Snapseed remains the best free photo editor available for mobile, offering genuinely professional capabilities that rival paid competitors. However, potential users should be aware of recent stability issues and Google's apparent maintenance neglect—download it for the powerful editing suite, but save your work frequently and consider alternatives if reliability is paramount for your workflow.
