In addition to this, the feature lets you incorporate split toning within your pictures, which is highly idea for bringing your photo to life as you envisioned it! However be warned, were the other editing apps such as VSCO and Unfold may be purchased for each group of presets, this entire app requires a monthly subscription, for consistent usage.
