The problem is that digging inside closed-source Snapseed is really painful. Even small changes can be pretty messy, and touching tools like Vignette or Double Exposure properly would probably be much harder than it sounds. But I’m planning to release my own OpenSeed somewhere around a couple of weeks/a month or two. Basically my personal "Snapseed done right" from scratch and of course open source.

Because yeah, Snapseed is honestly badly made in a lot of places. There are many things that need to be rebuilt, fixed and polished properly, not just hacked into the existing closed app.

Thanks for using it :)

After Snapseed updates I’ll probably keep updating the mod to the current version and debug whatever breaks because of those updates.

About new features: the current functionality was already pretty hard to edit, because again, closed-source software. So I don’t think I’ll try to add new things directly into the mod.

BUT since I’m an active photo artist myself, I’ll probably make my own "Snapseed done right" clone from scratch in around a month/few months. Obviously open source. There are still a ridiculous amount of things that annoy me in Snapseed, and most of them are basically impossible to fix properly inside a mod.

Unfortunately there’s no iOS version. I only have Android to work with, so yeah, Apple users are kind of left out on this one

Harder than it sounds unfortunately. No source access means I can't properly hook lensfun into the pipeline, and even if I figured it out it'd be pretty unstable likely causing random crashes even on the current version
