GLOOOWEHow to edit one person in a group photo
Editing a group photo carries two risks at once: affecting the person next to you, and ending up as the only one who looks “retouched”. Both are easy to avoid if you work in the right order.

Choose the person first
Glooowe detects the people in the frame separately. When you open the body tools it asks who you want to edit; anyone you do not select stays unchanged. Before anything else, make sure the right person is selected.
Leave the person next to you alone
Local edits affect surrounding pixels to some degree. If two people stand shoulder to shoulder, slimming one waist can spill onto the other person’s arm or shoulder. So in group photos keep values lower than you would on a solo shot, and check the person beside you when you finish.
Light and filters apply to the whole frame
Exposure, contrast, temperature and filters apply to the whole photo, not to one person. Do them first and moderately: everyone stays in the same light and the photo stays coherent.
Edit only yourself
Changing someone else’s appearance without them knowing can cause trouble once the photo is shared. Sticking to your own appearance gives the most natural result and bothers no one.
Frequently asked questions
With several people in the photo, who gets edited?
The app detects people and asks who you want to edit. Anyone you do not select stays unchanged.
Will the person next to me be affected?
Local edits affect nearby pixels slightly. At small values it is invisible; if people stand very close, keep values low and check when done.
Can I apply a filter to one person only?
No. Filters and light adjustments apply to the whole photo.
