How to use the Prisma App.
- When you first open the Prisma app, you’ll see the in-app camera. You can tap the shutter button to take a photo. Or tap Gallery to open an image from your photo library. When you’ve opened your photo library, locate the photo you want to edit. Then tap on the image to open it in the Prisma photo editor. When your photo is open, you’ll see a selection of artistic filters at the bottom of the screen. These include a range of painting styles as well as drawing and sketch effects.
Swipe across the filters to view more styles.
Note that the Prisma photo to painting app releases a new filter every day. So you’ll always have a new artistic style to try out.
When you find a filter you like the look of, tap to apply it to your photo.
It takes a few seconds for the Prisma app to turn your picture into a painting or drawing. The triangle icon in the middle of the screen shows the progress of the edit.
If you don’t like the effect, tap a different art filter at the bottom of the screen. Keep trying different filters until you find a style that you like. - More prisma filters
