These are the best apps and games that came out this week.

SKRWT

Sometimes when you shoot a picture on your phone, it’s hard to get everything right. Later when you view it, you realize it’s tilted, or improperly framed, or the perspective is off. Some apps let you do minor adjustments before you upload but nothing is as comprehensive as SKRWT. Previously an iOS exclusive, the app is finally available on Android. With SKRWT you can do the basic things like cropping and tilting but also change the perspective by selectively tilting individual sides of the image till everything looks just right. It can also add or remove vignetting effect and other lens distortions such as fisheye. There’s a lot to explore and if you’re a fan of precision and symmetry in your photography, you’d definitely appreciate what this app has to offer.
