No one's spilling any state secrets to suggest that most young people who purchase Android mobile devices will use these devices to take selfies, and the smart ones are going to also get a program like YouCam Perfect to make their selfies look that much better.

An Overview of YouCam Perfect

Today's Android devices come with pretty good cameras that have automatic white balance and can really make your photos look pretty good regardless of the surrounding light. However, they could always get better. Many Android users are addicted to social media and love posting pictures of themselves on their networking sites. These photos, called selfies, are so incredibly popular that even former President Barack Obama was seen with a selfie stick, enabling him to post pictures of himself on social media. The YouCam Perfect program is essentially an app for the Android OS which makes the pictures you take look a lot better. With half a million downloads to date, this app from Cyberlink Corp is starting to pick up a lot of popularity, and best of all it's a free app that anyone can use with an Android 4.0 or higher.

One of the biggest issues people have when taking selfies is that they cannot really see what they're shooting, so the end result ends up being about fifty-fifty. Sometimes you take a really good shot, and sometimes it looks like you snapped a photo in the dark using an old-school Polaroid. With this particular app, you can apply a bunch of different filters and effects before you shoot to ensure that the picture you end up taking will be worth keeping.

Features of YouCam Perfect

One of the first features you're going to notice with this app is its filters section. Rather than taking the photo first and then scrolling through a ton of filters until which point you find something you like, you can figure out which filters you like beforehand and apply them to the phone or tablet before you ever even snap your photos. This gives you a much better chance of taking a winning selfie, and it means no more legwork after the fact to make it look presentable. The filters are just the start of the features here. You can also tweak other features, such as the Auto Beauty feature, and this will enhance things like your skin tone and your hair without muddying the photo up. And with its timer feature, you're not forced to snap the photo on a whim. You have plenty of time to pose for the photo you want.

There are also features on this app that will help make you look taller or thinner, if you so choose. So if you haven't been adhering to your diet quite as well as you'd like, you can simply adjust a few things with your photo and end up looking great. Overall, this app was created specifically to help you release the best-looking photos possible for your social sites.
