I've used this app for a long time for adjusting light and color. It has the usual editing features you'd expect and also includes a good camera function. The 5-band Light EQ tool provides adjustment not only of blacks, shadows, highlights, and whites, but also of mid-grays, which is usually where I start my adjustments, especially for b/w. The Color EQ tool provides hue, saturation, and brightness adjustments for 8 color ranges, allowing much finer adjustments that the usual Saturation and Vibrance tools. It also has some useful filters and effects.

There are other editing apps that have these adjustments -- Pixelmator Photo, for one -- but for free, what's to lose?

As is typical, I get excited about a new app and already have it.

CropSize is currently $0.99 (usually $2.99).

‎CropSize - Image Size Editor

apps.apple.com

It's an app for cropping and resizing images that also includes batch processing, metadata viewing, the option to specify both the location and the size of the crop rectangle using numbers from the keyboard, support for sizing by pixels, inches, centimeters, or percentages, and other features.

I mainly use Pixelmator Pro for resizing and cropping and Photos just for cropping, but I use CropSize on occasion to grab a specific size rectangle out of an original -- for example, a piece 1500 pixels on the long side for uploading to MobiTog without resizing. I've also used it to cut same-sized pieces out of photos I want to compare at the pixel level (if I'm testing out different lenses or shooting methods, for example).

Not something everyone has a use for, but only 99 cents!

But how can we even try to refute it if we don’t know which app it is?

I tested it out on the 18,000+ photos in my Camera Roll, using the text description "plants on walls." It returned 120 hits, almost all of which were accurate. (It got fooled by a couple of ICM images.) By contrast, using the same text in the native Photos app search returned zero results. (For "plants" alone, the native Photos search returned 1700+ hits of plants everywhere. For "walls" alone, it returned 2 hits of our cat posed against a page in a crossword puzzle book.)

What the heck… downloading it.

EDIT: Blergh. I can’t get it to work. I tap “Pick Your Photo”, choose my image, and get a never ending spinning circle. I’ve tried about 5 times. Getting ready to hit the delete button methinks.
