Under these three buttons you will find the section which contains the editing options. The app provides four tabs. In the Adjust tab, you will find options that can be used to adjust the aspect of your images such as brightness, contrast, saturation, exposure, gamma, and hue. You can also adjust the red, green and blue tones of the images. The Effects tab provides many different effects which can add some originality to your images.

The Crop & Resize tab allows you to adjust the size of your images to better fit your needs.

After you are satisfied with the editing, you can add the slides. With the “Add Current Slide” button you can add the slide you are currently viewing. The “Add All Slides” button lets you add all the slides. After adding all the needed slides they will appear in the bottom right list. The app provides four other options regarding the slides.
