Popular Photo App that Beautifies Selfies Now Adds "Groupies" - New Cymera 2.0 Includes First-of-Its-Kind Social Editing

Top-Rated Camera App with 90M Users Worldwide Creates a Photo Playground with New Ways to Share, Group Edit and Enhance Your Pictures with Your Friends


San Francisco, CA, May 7, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Starting today, you can turn your selfie into a groupie. Cymera, a popular free camera app for selfies and portrait editing used by 90 million people worldwide, has unveiled first-of-its-kind social editing for portraits and private album sharing, allowing friends to interact in a unique and fun photo playground. Cymera 2.0 is available for free in Google Play with an iOS app planned for June.

Developed by SK Communications, Cymera 2.0 builds on the immensely popular all-in-one selfie camera and photo editor app with the ability to privately share, group edit and enhance pictures. The new social editing features allow users to invite a select group of friends to collaborate and have fun editing the same picture together. You can beautify images with new hairstyles and makeup, enhance them with lighting or effects like Big Eyes and Slim Face, or make your own comics with cool speech bubbles. If playful payback is in order, you can manipulate faces or blow up heads. In addition, you can enhance pictures easily with variety of filters, light effects and thousands of deco items. Once perfected, your groupie can be posted to Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr.

"Our new social editing features are a first for any photo app, and they're a great way for friends and family to connect and communicate in a visual way," said Minho Kang, Managing Director for the Cymera business division of SK communications.  "Cymera creates a photo playground and takes selfies to a whole new level. It's also a great tool for 'groupies,' or selfies with multiple people, because each person can be involved in the editing process no matter where they are."

Cymera 2.0 has a ton of features that enable you to capture, share and retouch your favorite portraits in just a few clicks, including:

●      Powerful Camera: To start, choose between seven DSLR-inspired camera lenses. Plus, select from shot options like Focus, Anti-Shake, Timer, Self-Portrait and Touch Shot.

●      Filters: Use the effects of approximately 100 filters, lights, and borders to change the ambience of your photos and bring them to life. Adjust the intensity so it looks more natural than ever.
