5 of the BEST Android apps to download for creatives
1. Canva
Canva's design app recently made the move to Android.
Offers full design suite features
Premium assets require IAP
Intuitive interface
Canva is an online design tool that has been around since 2012 and recently made the jump to Android. The enhancement of Android is near-identical in terms of interface and features, which are excellent and plentiful respectively. More of a full graphic design suite than a cut-down photo editor, Canva can be used to create and design everything from logos to web mock ups with access to huge library of templates, icons, photos and fonts, which are free although 'premium' assets require an in-app purchase.
2. Find My Font
The original font-identification software app
Identifies fonts you see while out and about
Database includes 150,000+ fonts
Find My Font is the original font-identification software, having debuted as a desktop app into which you would import photos to discover the fonts used. Turning this clever tool into a mobile app opened up its horizons and allowed designers to snap any piece of type in the wild and instantly discover something similar for use in design projects. With a database of over 150,000 fonts, the Android app can identify connected or fragmented letters and claims to achieve accurate matching results down to a mere 20px text height.
3. myPantone
Get the amazing Pantone on your Android phone.
Built-in access of Pantone libraries
Extract Pantone colours from images
Export palettes to use in CC apps
Relatively expensive
The myPantone app enables you to create colour palettes on the move, cleverly extract Pantone colours from images, and quickly look up the reference number of a Pantone colour if you're out and about. You can export palettes for use in Adobe's Creative Cloud apps (and QuarkXPress, too). It is expensive for an Android app which are usually free, but with no in-app purchases to worry about and access to Pantone Colour Libraries built-in, you are getting good value.
4. Adobe Photoshop Mix
An easy-to-use photo editing Android app from Adobe.
Very easy to use
Live-syncs with Photoshop CC
Not as good for subtle tweaks
An app that caters more for big statements than subtleties, Photoshop Mix lets you cut out and combine elements from different images, blend layers and make adjustments to your creations on your Android device. PS Mix majors on ease-of-use, and it live-syncs with Photoshop CC meaning that when you make a change on your phone, it’ll show up instantly on your desktop. Usefully, you can take advantage of all the CC benefits with an Adobe Photography Plan, which saves a fair bit over a full Creative Cloud subscription.
5.Lightroom 2.2
A free photo editing for mobile photography solution
Use to perfect a photo
Free app
Amazing editor features
Lightroom on Android 2.0 was much more than a simple update. Instead, Adobe trumpeted it as the first end-to-end RAW mobile photography solution. In short, it combined the ability to capture and share RAW/DNG files directly on on your phone with photo editing software to perfect it.
