Editor's Take
So here's the thing about A Color Story-it's basically what happens when two sisters who already conquered the blogging world decide to tackle photo editing. Founded in 2016 by Elsie Larson and Emma Chapman, the creators of A Beautiful Mess, this isn't just another filter app trying to make your breakfast look Instagram-worthy.
What makes A Color Story different is right there in the name. While most editing apps seem obsessed with making everything look washed out or overly dramatic, these folks went the opposite direction. Over 10 million installs and counting, and there's a reason it's been downloaded over 20 million times. The app focuses on making colors actually pop instead of fade into that generic social media aesthetic we're all tired of.
But here's where it gets interesting-they didn't just throw together some basic filters and call it a day. Choose from over 500 stackable filters and 120 customizable effects designed by top influencers and photographers. And yeah, "stackable" is the key word here. You can layer effects, which means you're not stuck with whatever some algorithm thinks looks good.
The app also includes this grid planning feature that lets you preview how your photos will look together on Instagram before you post them. It's one of those features that sounds simple but is actually genius-especially if you're the type who cares about having a cohesive feed. Plan out your Instagram grid right in the app! Select the right filters and effects in the photo editor and preview before you post.
And they've got this subscription thing called ACS+ that gives you access to everything for about $30 a year. ACS+ Yearly: The ACS+ Yearly membership is $29.99 USD per year. Not exactly cheap, but when you consider how much some people spend on coffee in a month, it's not outrageous either.
The whole thing feels like it was built by people who actually use photo editing apps, not just people who think they know what photo editing apps should do. Which, honestly, is rarer than it should be in the app world.
