Pitu is similar to other
photography
tools like
Beauty Camera
or
InstaBeauty - Makeup Selfie Cam
in helping you make the most out of every photo you take. However, this app separates itself with its wealth of fun and
cute features
to complement your shots.
Making photo edits easier
With Pitu, editing photos is made a lot easier with its
Intelligent Editor feature
. Through this capability, the app
automatically suggests filters
or
light settings
based on the photograph–depending on whether it is in an oversaturated or bright location or if it is a high-contrast shot. This helps beginners to better find what settings suit the pictures they have taken,
saving time
from testing each filter or light setting.
Also, one feature that definitely sets this app apart is the
AI Magical Cutout
that lets you put yourself against an animated digital background. The app first cuts the person out of the picture automatically and lets you choose which
animated background
you’d like to use. For example, if you want to shelter from a meteor rain or fall through clouds and bubbles, this app has it.
Unfortunately, there are some
filters that are insensitive
with certain user groups. One filter, in particular, has attracted the ire of users because it is based on
blackface
, which is inappropriate. Also, while the interface is mostly visual, which makes it intuitive to global users, the
text prompts and guides are mostly in Mandarin
. It limits the navigability of the app for non-Mandarin speakers.
Enjoy your smart photo editor
Pitu represents the
next stage in photo editing
, integrating artificial intelligence and machine learning to spare users the manual labor in editing their photos. With just a few clicks, you can get that
picture-perfect shot
that usually takes time to edit using other apps. While it is advanced for photo editors,
it could use more consideration
especially since it has users all around the world. Recommended.
