Quick and easy, but still lacking essential manual controls.

This is my go-to app for creating quick and elegant collages. It’s easy to chuck a selection of images into the pile and let Turbo Collage sort them instantaneously. The problems arise when you want to make manual adjustments to the frame sizes or when you add a new photo and your painstakingly designed layout is completely reorganised.

Pros:
- easy to use
- offers some good manipulation of the border widths and colors
- presets are creative and look nice
- using textures for the background is easy as long as you have some reset textures to hand

Cons:
- adding to or removing a picture from the pile will reset your layout
- can’t resize image frames - this would be particularly useful in the new circle pile setting
- no ability to adjust the image area, so if the "zig-zag" is not quite right, you have to just keep hitting "Shuffle" and hope for the best

Overall, definitely worth the small price and far easier than doing the same thing in Photoshop.
