Just a day after we speculated about Twitter’s new photo filters, the social media site updated its app and officially introduced new picture editing and refining features.
Produced in partnership with Aviary, the new features include eight photo filters, crop and zoom functions and a handy auto-enhance icon.
Most importantly, with Instagram cutting itself off from Twitter, tweeters would be able to attach pictures enhanced with these new features onto their timelines.
Not to be outdone and to keep up with the war between the two social media giant, Instagram has released a small update—complete with a brand new filter—shortly before the launch of Twitter’s new photo add-ons.
In addition to a re-designed camera interface, Instagram has also tweaked its image news feed, included a new one-tap auto-enhance function and tied up with FourSquare on its geo-tagging function.
The result of all these updates from Instagram and Twitter is that both sets of photo functions now look like replica of each other—the questions is, do users really need two apps that do the same things?
Who do you think will win this social media war?
