An all-in-one app that allows you to take photos, edit photos, and upload them to social media sites, all from the same application window

An Overview of Beauty Camera

One of the main reasons that social media took off and is still popular today is because so many people are obsessed with taking and posting selfies. Selfies are pictures people take of themselves to post on social media. Because this is such a popular thing, people are always looking to take better selfies. This is where Beauty Camera can really come in handy for social media users

The full name of this app is Beauty Camera – Selfie Camera, and it was developed and released by InShot Inc and is available for free for mobile users. It should work on both Android and iOS without any issue, but you may run into some compatibility problems if you're running an older version of either. Though it was designed to work with both operating systems.

Perhaps the best thing about this app is that it's so lightweight and will not bog your mobile device down, even though it's actually performing quite a few tasks all from the same application.

What Beauty Camera Is and What It Does

Beauty Camera – Selfie Camera is a three-in-one app that can connect to social media sites for the purposes of posting selfies. Though you in no way have to upload your shots to social media. You can save them for albums, use them on dating sites, or whatever else you want to do with them. Basically, the app works by allowing you to take pictures with it, then instantly edit them with a variety of tools and filters. Once you're satisfied with the result, you can (if you want) connect to a social media site to post.

This app is really simplistic even though you're doing quite a lot with it. The app itself claims that you can become “ten times” more beautiful. In reality, the app will touch up things like lighting, apply some filters, and make your appearance look smoother and cleaner. It's not a professional editor that's going to transform your images. It's not Photoshop. So take it for what it is, a free app that can improve photo quality.

That being said, it can improve the quality of your photos rather dramatically. However, most of these improvements deal with the overall tone of the photo and the lighting and how soft and clean it looks. It doesn't do much about removing blemishes, thinning the features, and other pro-style edits. It doesn't have that capacity.

Features of Beauty Camera

The first feature you're going to notice is that you'll get a selfie camera with a variety of presets that deal with filters, lighting, etc. This will allow you to snap better-looking selfies than what your standard phone camera is capable of. After that, you can instantly start to apply different filters and effects to your photos. Just keep in mind that this is what they call “editing.” In reality, it's just adding filters and effects. You're not taking anything away.

Though while these editing features are very basic, another really cool feature is that the app itself connects directly to social media. This saves a lot of time. Instead of having to save the photo, log into social media, and then find and post the photo, you can get into your sites right from the app and immediately post your photo. It works the best with image-friendly sites like Instagram.
