Snapseed Camera on Android adds grid lines & levels

Since the big 4.0 release in May, Snapseed for Android has been rolling out bug fixes, with the latest update adding more Camera interface customization.

Launching the Snapseed Camera and tapping the settings button in the top-right corner lets you access the new options.

In recent releases, Google cleaned up the Color Theme picker and added small previews for Editor, Dusk, Negative, Street, Haze, and Depth.

Snapseed 4.0.8 introduces Grid Lines that let you select from Rule of Thirds, 2×2, and Golden Ratio, with the default setting being None.

Level is enabled by default after updating with three items: Flat-Lay, Horizon, and Tilt.

On the iOS version, Snapseed also supports Location Metadata and Format. Hopefully, those two options will also come to Android in the future.

Android vs. iOS

Snapseed 4.0.8 is still rolling out via the Play Store today. Version 4.0.1 for Android introduced a homescreen app shortcut to immediately launch the Camera. A bigger update in the future will expand Snapseed’s RAW support.
