Lets be familiarized with Mendr. Mendr is an Android and iOS based mobile app that lets users make money by editing photos. Basically it’s an app for users who want their photos to be modified and tweaked by experts. They also hire experts who have good photo editing skills to fix photos for their customers. Its working is pretty much similar to apps like Uber, Lyft etc. Users upload their photos for editing. They can ask for specific modifications that they want. Editors can see all of those requests in their dashboards and they have to option to accept working on them or not. Mendr is a relatively new app that was launched in March 2017 but it has gained popularity because of its new brilliant concept.
HOW IT WORKS
In this guide we are not going to discuss the customer’s part. We will focus on the editor part and we’ll explain how you can become an editor and start earning money from this app. Please bear in mind that you need to have suitable photo editing skills before you should apply to become an editor. If you don’t have any graphic designing / editing skills then you won’t probably be able to earn anything. In fact, your lack of skills can hurt your profile which will isn’t a good thing for the long term. When we talk about photo editing skills we mean expertise with tools like Adobe Photoshop, LightRoom, GIMP etc. So if you don’t have the proper skill, it’s better to join a graphics designing course before applying for this opportunity.
Being an editor you will have to do editing jobs that mostly involve:
## Changing colors (hair, skin etc.)
## Removing tattoos
## Fixing wrinkles and spots
## Adding clouds and other effects to photos
## Removing specific objects that users ask
