UltraPop, a photo editing app from UltraLab, allows you to “transform your pictures into eccentric pieces of art.” UltraLab released UltraPop 2.0 app for iOS, which features several acid neon filters and fun shapes to use while editing your photos. It’s one of the most psychedelic photo editing apps around.

UltraPop 2.0 comes with many new filter packs, including the following:

  • Classique: A selection of psychedelic filters that are being carried over from UltraPop 1.0.
  • Celestial: Filters inspired by sunsets and twilights meant to bring out the best in landscape and skyline pictures.
  • Synthetic: Six filters that have tones of pink and mint.
  • Irrational: Six filters that have acid neon and discreet photo effects.
  • Organic: Filters that add quirky, nature-inspired tones.

The UltraPop app also has an Instagram community, @ultrapopapp, where photographers can go and learn how to use the app. UltraPop also has a Tumblr page, as well, and many photography buffs draw inspiration from the designs on the pages. Although photographers seems to be the main users of the app, graphic designers also use UltraPop’s features to create artwork such as posters and music album covers.

Another addition to the app is the new store, where creative individuals can submit their art and sell their own filter packs. UltraLab hopes to bring together the mobile photo editing community and inspire people to make money off of their work. UltraPop users can help artists by purchasing their creative work through the UltraStore.

The UltraPop 2.0 app is available on the App Store worldwide, so creatives from anywhere can get started immediately. The app is compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch devices with iOS 8.0 or later installed. Ultrapop 2.0 is free with in-app purchases for additional filter packs that are also available on the UltraStore.

Apple has continued to lean into its first-party health and wellness iOS apps with things like Fitness, Sleep, and Breathe, and now Journal will be joining their ranks as the company's first attempt at an app that focuses on mental well-being.

Lock screen widget for iOS 16.

Apple just released a new iOS update for your iPhone: iOS 16.3.1. There are also updates for iPadOS 16.3.1 and macOS 13.2.1. All of these are relatively minor updates, but they do patch up an actively exploited code execution vulnerability that was found in WebKit/Safari. A second vulnerability was also patched up, though this second one was not known to be actively exploited.

But that’s not all that iOS 16.3.1 brings. This update also fixes an issue with iCloud settings, where it became unresponsive. Another bug fix corrects an issue with using Siri with the Find My feature, where the request would end up failing. If you have a HomePod, there is a HomePod 16.3.2 OS update that will also resolve some Siri issues, where smart home requests would end up failing.
