About PhotoPad

PhotoPad is a photo editing solution designed for use at home or the office. Key features include basic image editing tasks, such as rotating, resizing and cropping. It also has tools for adjusting image brightness and saturation, noise reduction, image sharpening, blemish removal and more.

PhotoPad has editing tools to help users merge multiple copies of a single photo for creating HDR images. The application also has an automated collage creator, a template builder to convert images for Paint by Numbers and editing tools for creating thumbnail images for YouTube or other social media channels.

Users can also replace the background of an image with another background from PhotoPad's built-in media library. The application uses artificial intelligence technology to resize images while retaining sharpness and it also upscales pictures without losing image quality. It can also help users prepare images for HD printing.

    Pros:
    Just the fact that I learned how to use this program in a couple hours and the colorful detailed instructions makes it easy to use.
    Cons:
    There wasn't one thing that I honestly disliked about this software. It is updated frequently and if you purchased it and they updated it within a certain timeframe, they let you update to the new version for free or if it's a longer period, then they give you a discounted rate to upgrade to the latest version
