Snapseed is an app that you should definitely be using not only if you're really serious about photography, but also if you want to ensure that your online work sets the standard for social media.

Step 2: Use Snapseed's Healing ToolThe healing tool works by covering the unwanted element with the surrounding scene. That's why, sometimes, you may find an element hard to remove if your image contains lots of colors or objects. The healing tool works best on standalone objects and uncluttered spaces.For this post, I'll show you how to remove an unwanted structure and person from an image. I'll also show you what happens when you try and remove an element that is obstructed by too many colors or objects.Tap or draw with your finger over the area that you'd like to remove. This is the tool that selectively removes parts of your image. After using the tool, if it fails to remove the element with perfection, you can zoom into your image by pinching out or double-tapping the screen to try and achieve better results. You can zoom out by pinching in on the screen or double-tapping again.I'd recommend always zooming into your image to use the healing tool as it tends to give the cleanest results.
