For all the Instagrammers who once wished their feed was as aesthetic and attractively pleasant as others out there, this list is for you.

These 5 apps will not only upgrade your picture game, but when taken a few minutes learning how to work with them it will make the editing a lot easier, and faster.

1. VSCO

This app is a must-have for a beautifully aesthetic feed. It lets you chose within numerous effect packages, in which a lot of them are free, and also allows you to make basic edits to your pictures (such as lighting and different picture cuts).

If you don't like to spend much time on planning posts, just throw a picture here and it'll only take a few minutes for you to step up your picture game. A big plus for those striking to have a monochromatic feed is that the app saves to your edits to its journal, so can keep an eye on them and see if they correlate.

2. Snapseed


My favorite app for editing pictures. The tool section gives you a lot of freedom to play with the light, shadow, and other areas, but something really special about this app is the brush and selective tools. Both of them give you the freedom to edit lighting, color and other aspects in only certain parts of the picture rather than the whole.

3. UNUM

This is your ultimate secret for an upgrade to your Instagram game. The main idea is that it lets you reschedule your Instagram posts and gives you a look at how your feed will be. There are other interesting tools in there that lets you track your follows, see the average likes and comments, and the best times to post.

4. Lightroom

An alternative to Snapseed, this one is also a photo editing app that gives you a lot of freedom to play around the tools in the picture. Usually a favorite for Photoshop fans.

5. Facetune

This app has some useful tools for some quick picture touches. Don't go by the rules in this one and use to tools to your advantage, for example, makeup tools for changing colors in specific parts of your photo, or the retouch tool to let the background unfocused.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
