2. Scroll and choose a preset option.

1. Adjust the sliders to alter the image.

Final image.

I would play with this a little more but it looks better than the traditional automatic filter.

Lenka
A free iOS or Android app.

Both of these photos were taken with the Lenka camera app. The app only allows very little adjustment which is pretty nice.

I would recommend taking the picture with the Lenka app and editing it with the Google Photos app. This usually results in a much better end result all with just a click or two. Pretty slick.
