If you like taking snaps from your Android phone then there are a host of Camera Apps available that can really spice up your pics. The Google Play Store hosts many of them and we have used a few.

We loved some of them, simply because of their ease of use and the amount of user involvement they provide. One can literally do any thing with these apps from filtering to editing to producing cool effects. Here is the list of 10 apps we believe are worth trying out. If you feel that some other app should be on the list then please feel free to add in the comment box.

1 . Paper Camera

If you want your photos to look like hand-drawn images then Paper Camera is just the application for you. It can cartoonify any picture you take provide some very cool customization. So just shoot from your view-finder and have lots of fun.

4. Retro Camera Plus

It simulates a number of vintage cameras and can give your photos a very nice old-school look. It has a pretty nice interface too. If you feel it might not be worth $ 2.99 then you can always try the free version first.

 5. Fast Burst Camera

The name says it all. This app take about 10 to 30 images per second depending on your device. Its a very handy app for taking images of moving objects. The stock Android camera interface can not do this. If u feel 30 images/sec is not enough then you can try out the Ultra Burst Camera (Price: $5.70) which takes over 50 image/sec.

Note: The images will not be taken at your camera’s max resolution.

Price: $ 3.99

6. HDR Camera Plus

HDR stands for High Dynamic Range and dynamics are something that images taken from the phone cam lack a lot. In simple words if the lighting conditions are not good then some of the portion of the image are well exposed and other areas aren’t.  HDR camera Plus tackles with this problem by taking various shots at different exposure values and then combines them into a single HDR image. So images appear sharp and contrast levels are well maintained.

Price: $ 3.99 (Free trial version available too.)

7. Camera Effects

Camera Effects is a simple and easy to use app. The UI is very neat and in fact better than most Cam apps found is Android phones. It has a very wide range of effects and can make your photos noticeably better.
