VSCO: Photo & Video Editor App Reviews

I downloaded VSCO because Ive seen them popping up here and there, and Ive found them to be aesthetically pleasing. I downloaded the app to throw some of my own photography on the web and found it to be impossible to navigate. No tutorial, no help aside from a FAQ, nothing to assist. If thats a turn-off for me (age 20) its going to be for older generations as well.

you should be able to filter videos! that would make your app extremely diverse than other filter apps :))

Omg I love this app soooooo much

All they want do is sell you filters I bought all the filters on my phone and the is no option to restore purchases

Vsco make a edit and that is best awesome

No words needed this app is awesome

Amazing app it has everything that I need has beautiful filters and more

love this app, i just wish they would make an option to edit videos. i love these filters better than instagram, facebook, etc.

The new icon isnt so great. You should change it back. Everything else is nice tho

It would be amazing if we had the ability to re-order and move pictures in our library. Thank you

The best photo editing app of all the ones Ive seen or tried! I dont care what color the icon is Id still continue to use it and seeing as how the blue is for showing support to WWF that just made it worth getting simply for that very reason!

Seriously how come you have not fixed this already?? Its been like this since many versions ago

ive had vsco for a looong time and i love it, only thing they could improve on is adding videos into it. LOVE IT

First of all, I think the color of the app doesnt matter. If it doesnt match your " theme" then okay. I dont think that the color of the app matters THAT much.......

PLEASE CHANGE IT BACK TO BLACK AND WHITE!! It looks better that way. also, I liked my grid better when my pictures fit together like puzzle pieces. thank you!

the app icon will change back to black and white soon, please dont base your review off that. i miss the side-scrolling feature in the explore tab, and it seems like most people think its removal wasnt an improvement. thats the only reason why im taking off a star. if this feature is restores i will re-rate for 5 stars. the app layout is a little confusing but is functional and provides powerful photo editing tools, and i love using the many presets. also a thanks to the vsco team for quick support and for reposting one of my pictures! check out my feed if you want: keagen7.vsco.co

this is my absolute favorite app for photo editing on mobile. Not photoshop fix, not Enlight, not PRIME, not Snapseed. This app here. Those are all great, but VSCO is special. and its not just me, my photography friends use it a lot too. when you first install the app, you need to be aware that it is not only a photo editor, but also a social network. VSCO seem to be going for the direction of giving you a photography blog (referred to in app as a journal), but they also have an Instagram-like photo sharing portion (referred to as your grid). You can also search for and follow other artists Journals and Grids. I recommend following Samuel Elkins and Sam Alive they will give you lots of inspiration of how you can use the app (also me, ChrisQPhoto). The rest of the app is focused around photo editing, specifically with a focus on emulating the look of film stock, which is does SOOO well. My workflow typically is I will shoot my pictures with my DSLR, then do basic edits in Adobe Lightroom. If the image is a portrait, I will do simple changes in PortraitPro 15. After this I will go to www.VSCO.co and login to my account, then go to the web uploader. From there I can sync jpg or png files of my images straight from my desktop to my iPhone. Syncing works great, and if Im signed into my account on my iPad or iPhone I can keep all my files and edits up-to-date across all my devices. Also tech support when I have had a question has been great and they always respond in 24 hours. I love the editing in this app. On iPhone there is no way to truly edit a RAW photo file, so I need to do that on a desktop. But this is very similar to color grading my photos after the fact to give them that special something... Its just not easy to describe. When editing the toolbar needs to be slid around because some of the tools are off screen, but they work amazingly. I love the filters, which I feel are my favorite of any photo app. But not all things are perfect. There is no way to flip an image horizontally or vertically, you can only tilt them about 45 degrees in either direction. There is no way to free transform a crop either, but I think this is to simplify. The focus is on film stock emulation and sharing, not on being a be-all-end-all editor. But thats why I have Photoshop Fix or the others I mentioned before. Those apps are where my work happens. Its a bit of a chore to edit. but VSCO is where I have fun. Its more of a joy playing with an image and seeing what it can become in this app for me then it is in Photoshop either on my desktop or my phone. I feel it could grow more, maybe add a histogram or other type things. But I love this app and hope you do too.

SO CONFUSING!!! This app doesnt tell u anything! How do I post a picture? So many questions that cant be answered!!!OVERALL WORST APP IVE EVER HAD!!!!!!!!

Continually pushing the envelope.

Im in college and love to take pictures of the things I do, and this is the best photo editing app I have found that is free!!
