A year after being designated the iPad App of the year by Apple in 2011, Nik Software’s impressive tablet photo editor comes to Android. Maybe that’s not such a huge surprise, considering that Android creator Google purchased Nik Software, the maker of Snapseed, this past September. Though it doesn’t have quite the stunning interface of Apple’s iPhoto for iOS and some of the mind-blowing content-aware tricks of Adobe Photoshop Touch, Snapseed remains one of the most powerful image editors available for tablets. Best of all? It’s now free (as is its iOS counterpart).
