Pho.to Lab for iOS major update: featured artistic effects and more!

New version of Pho.to Lab for iPhone and iPad is out! The update is a major one and brings a whole new group of truly artistic effects, that were only available in DEMO mode on our site before. With this update you will also get 3 new color emphasizing effects and will notice that effects previews are of better quality now.

Starting from now, all the listed effects are available in every version of Pho.to Lab: free, PRO and PRO HD, but with one tiny difference: though you can apply any of these effects in any version, you must be a PRO user to be able to save the result to your gallery, instantly share it on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram or send it via email.

And one more change related to this major update: effects from “Featured Sketches and Paintings” group at Funny.Pho.to service will have a limited functionality very soon. You will be able only to preview, not save or share the result. The only way to save and share the result is through the mobile app. This said, install the latest version of Pho.to Lab, take great pictures and make them even better right on your phone!

P.S.: “Featured Sketches & Paintings” group for Pho.to Lab Android is on its way 😉

Visage Lab is going Android!

It has been a while since we announced the launch of the portrait enhancement app Visage Lab for iPhone and iPad users. From now on it is Android fans’ turn to experiment with all the face retouching algorithms, artistic filters and effects it has to offer.

Visage Lab on Googlr Play

Visage Lab is a portrait retouching app aimed to automatically boost a photo, e.g. to remove pimples and wrinkles, outline the eyes and whiten the teeth within seconds. You can apply all the improvements at once or exclude some options you think unnecessary.

Visage Lab for Android - before and after face retouch

But Visage Lab functionality doesn’t end there and after the groundwork (we mean the enhancement) is done you will be offered to add a bunch of artistic effects to your picture. Divided into four groups, they allow you to change the background, experiment with styles or play with lighting and colors.

Android users can enjoy both Free and PRO versions. The PRO version is ad-free, contains more effects and filters and doesn’t add watermarks to your photos.

Welcome New Color Filters: «Blue Only», «Green Only» and «Red Boost»!

We added 3 more cool photo effects for the artistic minded folks:

1) http://funny.pho.to/blue_only/ – leaves only the blue color in your photos. All other colors become black and white (great for emphasizing the blue eyes).

2) http://funny.pho.to/green_only/ – leaves only the green color and its shades in your photos. All other areas become black and white, too.

Green Only

3) http://funny.pho.to/red_boost/. This effect emphasizes the red color in your photos, and also leaves the skin color untouched. All other colors become black and white. This creates a kind of retro look in your photos.
