Overview
- Google is rolling out Snapseed 4.0.1 on the Play Store with a new Camera shortcut that appears when you long-press the app icon.
- Users can drag this shortcut to the home screen to open Snapseed’s in-app camera directly and skip the gallery screen.
- The shortcut uses the same googly eye icon as the camera button inside the app to make the action easy to spot.
- iPhone users already had fast access options like lockscreen and Control Center shortcuts, so this brings Android closer to that level of convenience.
- The update follows Snapseed’s 4.0 relaunch that ended a long lull on Android and added pro tools like Smart Masking, Batch Editing, RAW support, and a built-in camera at no cost.
