500px App Updated With Built-In Camera And Editing Tools

Any photographer or art lover worth their salt probably knows about 500px. For those unfamiliar, 500px is a community where photographers upload photos that they have taken to be shared amongst each other. Unlike other photo sharing websites, 500px in general seems to have pretty decent quality photos so perhaps they might be worth checking out if you haven’t already.

That being said if you have the 500px app on your smartphone, you might be pleased to learn that the developers have recently issued a rather major update to it. Previously the iOS version of 500px was more or less limited to just browsing the page, but with the update, users will now be able to snap photos directly from the app itself.

There will also be built-in photo editing features courtesy of Adobe Creative Cloud, and users will be able to upload photos from Adobe Lightroom Mobile to 500px directly. This means that users can take photos from the app, edit it, and upload it all at once, so even if you’re on holiday you can still share your photos without having to log into a computer to upload/edit them.

The app update has also brought support for the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, 1Password support for logging into the service, as well as the usual bug fixes and improvements. The app itself is free so if you’d like to check it out, head on over to the iTunes App Store for the download.
