Many of you are likely addicted to the camera of your iPhone; i.e. doing creative work with Snapchat, Instagram and more.

Though the big players provide a great experience, you might want to check out what the app A Beautiful Mess offers. It is just the ideal app needed for photo sharing.

There are several features in the app, but that’s what not sets it apart. The attraction is the ease with which the user can frame pictures, add a few words to them, or put doodles on them.

How to use A Beautiful Mess on iPhone

After installing the app on your device, you can upload a new photo to edit with the above-mentioned options. When it comes to texts, you can also add photos, nifty backgrounds, collages and colors.

When you’ve edited a photo, it’s saved to your camera roll and exported to social networks including Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. The app will let you select a resolution at which the photo should be exported, which is great if you’re not using Wi-Fi.

The app has a great interface with elegant parallax effects. After editing a photo, you can check out the screen asking your next preference. Moving the phone at this point moves the whole screen. Further, you get live previews of you changes when you’re trying to figure out how different colors will look.

A beautiful Mess keeps track of all the changes in real time. Any front adjustments and frames are showcased side by side. You can also zoom in and move around a font without any issues. And the best part is your image never feels like a stranger despite a plethora of effects.

Final thoughts

If you want to spruce up photos before they go out to your social peers, this app could be your secret weapon. The collages, doodles and everything else do a fantastic job to doctor up things. And a few in-app purchases can make things even better.

You can download A Beautiful Mess for $0.99 from the App Store. It works with iOS 7 and above. Let us know if you give it a try and feel free to leave comments.
