Snapseed has been a revelation in the increasingly-popular image editing game, but since Google acquired Nik Software – the firm behind the iconic app – last September, there have been few recent murmurings touting the demise of Snapseed.

Snapseed – one of the most critically acclaimed iOS apps of last year – has gone free for what seems to be a limited time offer. We’ve got the app’s details and a download link in place after the jump!
