1. iPhoto

Anybody that currently owns an Apple computer will know exactly what iPhoto already is. This simple image manipulation tool is provided and designed by Apple themselves, and can be used to browse and organise photos. Create albums and share images using the integrated Photo Stream function unique to all Apple devices. Apple also allows you to edit your photos using a variety of tools similar to its Mac counterpart. These tools include saturation, brightness, colour tweaks and sharpen fixtures. Have your images got red eye or blur? Use the Red Eye and Repair tools to straighten out any errors that crop up along the way. Choose between multiple pre-defined effects which give colour adjustments such as vintage effects, warm and cool, ink effects and black and white to the images within an album. Never forget any of your memories with the Journal feature which allows you to put pictures into a collage and title them for safe keeping.
