The Photoristic HD iPad app has been recently updated, to Version 1.1. Photoristic HD is a relatively new and very impressive photo effects app for the iPad.

One of the app’s claims to fame is that ‘you will not find a faster photo editor in the whole App Store’ – as it makes use of the iPad’s GPU instead of general CPU resources. I have to say the app lives up to the claim nicely – it really is very fast, as I mentioned in my first post about Photoristic.

The 1.1 update brings 20 new preset effects to the app. Here’s the full change list:

- Amazing Clarity effect. Enhance your photos with stunning dramatic look!
- 20 new beautiful presets
- Undo / Redo functionality
- Dropbox support
- Improved overall responsiveness and stability
- Bug fixes

The new presets look good and of course Dropbox support is a big plus. If you’re looking to extend your set of iPad photo effects apps, this is a good one to add.

Here’s an App Store link for Photoristic HD; it’s priced at $2.99.
