Benjamin Levicek Adobe launches Photoshop Camera app for iPhone
Adobe, which is responsible for programs such as Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign, today showed off a new special application to the world. Have you ever heard of Photoshop Camera? This is a great tool that is available for Apple phones and can replace the native Camera application. After eight months of beta testing, the application has proven itself and has finally reached the public. And what does it even offer and what are its advantages?
Like other third-party programs that serve to replace the Camera, this one also differs mainly in the available filters. The application offers more than 80 different effects with which you can immediately take photos or add them to photos in post-production. Photoshop Camera also boasts special filters. They were inspired by various artists and influencers, including the very popular singer Billie Eilish. Artificial intelligence plays a huge role in this application. In order to be able to take the best possible pictures, the light and sharpness are automatically improved immediately after pressing the shutter button. In the case of group selfies, the application is also able to identify individual subjects by itself and subsequently eliminates the distortion effect.
Twitter is testing reactions to posts
In today's modern age, we have several social networks at our disposal. Probably the most popular are without a doubt Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and TikTok, where several posts are added every second. In addition, as it now turns out, Twitter is about to copy one of Facebook's most popular features. This fact was pointed out by reverse engineering that examined the network code. And what exactly is it about? It's quite possible that we'll soon see several different reactions on Twitter. It is Facebook that uses this concept, where we, as users, have the opportunity to respond to posts in several ways, which, apart from Liku, include, for example, a heart and other emoticons. The news was pointed out by Jane Manchun Wong. You can see which emoticons we should expect in the case of Twitter in the tweet attached below.

Apple has released the schedule for WWDC 2020
Soon we will finally see this year's first apple conference, which will be completely virtual. On the occasion of this event, we will see the introduction of new operating systems, led by iOS 14, and there is even talk of the unveiling of new ARM processors that will power future MacBooks, and a redesigned iMac. In addition, today Apple provided us with more detailed information through a press release. The main event will be broadcast live from California's Apple Park on Monday, June 22 at 19 p.m. CET. But the event does not end here and, as is customary, the event will continue for the whole week. The Cupertino company has prepared more than 100 different lectures and workshops for developers, which will be devoted primarily to programming. You can watch this year's WWDC conference for free in several ways. The live broadcast will be available through the company's official website, Apple Developer, YouTube and the Keynote app on Apple TV.
Darkroom got a new album manager
Apple phones and tablets are very reliable and powerful, which allows them, for example, to edit photos or videos directly on the device. The Darkroom application, for example, is hugely popular, and is the right hand for many apple lovers when it comes to photos. In addition, this application received a new update today and came with a great new feature. An album manager has arrived in Darkroom, with which users can save a lot of time. This manager allows you to fully manage your albums without having to go to the native Photos app. Until now, if you wanted to edit your collection in any way, you had to leave Darkroom, go to Photos and eventually create an album (folder) and then you could move photos. Fortunately, this is becoming a thing of the past, and from today you can solve everything directly through Darkroom. The app is available for free, but its key features are charged on a subscription basis. There are several ways to get the full version called Darkroom+. Either you pay 1 crowns and you no longer have to worry about anything, or you decide on a subscription model that will cost you 290 crowns per month or 99 crowns per year.
