Smartphones changed the way we communicate with one other. And the smartphones that we use right now are an iteration of the various changes the smartphone industry has made over the years. Users have come to make more and more use of functions and features that maybe weren’t even included in phones a decade back.

One of those features or functions is the increasing importance and usage of the front camera. Front camera was basically added in the feature phones as a way to communicate with each other better, but in recent times, it has become a make or break component of a phone. Why is that, you ask? That’s because the trend of taking selfies are at an all-time high. People love to commemorate occasions by taking a selfie, alone or with friends.

So, in this article, we are listing the top apps which are great for taking selfies.

But I already have a native camera app on my phone. Why do I need another app to take a selfie for me?
