If you enjoy tweaking photos and marketing designs, you’re familiar with this drill: increase contrast, boost saturation, pull headline down, change font, change font again, change font a third time, revert to first font, decrease contrast. Even if it’s fun, are the results worth your time?

Many apps offer a one-touch way to improve images and design. The results can rival your manual efforts. Here are a few to try:

Phone photos – Most phones include a one-touch option to enhance photos. For iPhones, go to the photo editing screen and select the icon with the magic wand. Android models vary by manufacturer, and most also have the ability to improve a picture with a single tap.

Canva – The Magic Design feature (in beta testing at press time) is available at canva.com/magic-design. Select one or more images, then choose the type of output you desire—a specific social media platform, invitation, flier, etc. Canva creates layouts with text and other elements that you can use as is or continue to modify.

Instagram – In addition to the suite of available filters, Instagram has a magic wand called Lux that you’ll find at the top of Edit screen. Lux mainly adjusts exposure and contrast, which you can combine with a filter effect.

Many other apps include similar shortcuts—even advanced software like Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Lightroom. If you’re unsure if the tech tool you use has quick-fix options, an internet search will reveal any that are available.
