Here's some good news for Android users! Prisma, the sensationally popular iOS photo manipulation app that's been second only to Pokémon Go in terms of summer hype,
has now arrived on Android via the Google Play Store. The free app weighs 7MB and would requires Android 4.1 KitKat OS and later versions to run.The Google Play Store has been plagued by sketchy knockoffs of this excellent new app, so it's a welcome relief to have the authentic app now up and running. Prisma's makers say they've ported over all the iOS functionality, so there shouldn't be any difference in user experience or capabilities.
Many people have complained about the app's unresponsive moments, which were caused by server overload due to the particular cloud-based processing that Prisma uses. This app doesn't apply a filter on images the way that Instagram does, but instead rebuilds your photos by combining them with the style of another image, typically a classical artist's signature look, using some clever AI. The big challenge for Prisma now is to take on the Android influx without succumbing to the pressures of its popularity.
Launched on iOS and quickly became a rage because of its hand sketch-like effects. Users can simply click an image from their device's front or rear cameras and choose the effects they want to apply. Users get a total of 36 filters. However, applying the filter on images for the first time might take about a minute. The intensity of the filter can also be controlled.
