11 Free Mobile Photo Editor Apps + 1!
Christmas is often a time where people actually dress up for gatherings and want their pictures taken with family and friends while celebrating it. When we take pictures nowadays, we usually upload it as soon as it gets saved on our phones. Most often, people would want to have them edited first.

The first one I tried using for editing with my phone was LemeLeme. The effects were definitely cool, but there would always be a problem uploading to social networking sites.
Eventually, I ended up using Instagram last year because of its preset picture effects and easy connection to networking sites. I am proud to say that I was one of the earliest to have ever made an account there, and got it to connect to Facebook.
The only problem was only one picture could be uploaded at a time. After several months of using Instagram and uploading only one picture at a time without the option of grouping these pictures into an album, some opted to put several pictures together on their computers, download back to their phones, then upload to Facebook.
The quickest way, however is downloading an app, or several apps (whichever you would prefer) to cut or compile the pictures out for you, and import them to your favorite social network before uploading. However, some of these eleven apps do not just edit the photos for you with different effects. They even have christmas themes for you to send to family and friend, save to your phone, or upload to your favorite social network! Some of these totally free photo-editing apps for the mobile device I have come across are:
Diptic by Peak Systems: one can choose different layouts, 2 or more pictures at the least. Layouts are more than 50, adjustable, and you can choose the picture effects to your heart's desire. Effects are not preset, though. What I do is just compile the pictures there and export to Instagram. Maximum of 5 picture compilations per frame. Saves to your mobile albums, can send to email, export to Facebook, Flickr, Posterous, Tumblr, Twitter, and Instagram. Totally free. Compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. Requires iOS 4.3 or later, and optimized for iPhone 5.
Photo Collage by Kai Xia: You can choose the different photo layouts you want to have, ratios are displayed at 1:1, 3:2, 4:3, and 3:4. Borders are editable from squares to a soft curve, and you can even change the patterns of the borders. A variety of picture effects, but can only upload to Facebook and Twitter, send to email, and save to photo album. Effects can be done separately for each picture. No Instagram on this one, folks. Compatible with iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (third generation), iPod touch (fourth generation), iPod touch (5th generation), and iPad. Requires iOS 5.0 or later.
Instapic Frames by Vijaya Kumar Reddy Doddavala: choose from 49 layouts up to a maximum of 5 compiled pictures. Mobile ads are there, of course. Can most definitely upload directly to Instagram and tumblur, save to photo album, email, copy to clipboard. Upgrades are available to make the app ads-free.
Frame Your Life - Picture Frames by Imagination Unlimited: this one is actually cool, chose a heart-shaped layout for the picture I have chosen. Was a bit surprised, though, because there were actually full screen mobile ads popping out while going through the app. Some of the cooler layouts you will have to purchase. Add texts and emoticons for more fun. Compatible with iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad. Requires at least iOS 5.0, and optimized for iPhone 5.
Pic Stitch by Big Blue Clip LLC: One of the few ones I have tried and it pretty much does the same trick. It does take quite a bit of delay when choosing pictures, though. Took me about 4-5 times before the pictures can be loaded. Default effects are free, but the other picture effects set of Grunge, Nostalgia, and Viewfinder will have to be purchased. Compatible with iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (3rd generation), iPod touch (4th generation), iPod touch (5th generation) and iPad. Requires iOS 4.3 or later, and optimized for iPhone 5.
Photo Collage by Huang Yao Yun: Very simple functions. Choose a cool and unconventional layout, add your pictures and effects. Does not really have the option to take photos when choosing pictures, though. Pictures are taken from your phone albums. Add text. Export to Twitter and Facebook, save to photo album, or email to friends and family. Compatible with iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. Requires iOS 4.3 or later.
iChristmasPhoto by B Part Studio: Choose a picture, add Christmas effects like Santa's beard and hat, or a Christmas ribbon. Change the borders or backgrounds if you want, then export! Compatible with iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch, iPod touch, iPod touch, iPad, iOS 5.0.
X-mas Cards (Photo2Cards) by Vukee Lifestyle: Choose a layout with preset greetings like "Cheers 2013". Pictures can be chosen from one of your albums or one can be taken during use. Has the option to be printed as a real postcard and can be paid through Paypal, Visa, Mastercard, or American Express. Compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. Requires iOS 4.3 or later.

As an addition, I would also like to add Vintage Camera. I have got to say that this app has a wicked layout, but cannot really compile pictures into one frame. Added it to this list because this app has some really nice, but simple colors. Effects are most definitely vintage-styled and can upload to Facebook and Twitter. Can send to email and has the option to delete the edited picture.
