Depends...
If it's just phone photos you're probably best off with phone apps.
There's plenty of good editing software for computers that's free (Gimp and websites like Photopea).
PhotoShop is great but probably not worth for occasional use.
Dunno about AI tools tbh, but I'm sure someone will know. |

"I would recommend concentrating on lighting, framing and your background. If you get those right you won't need to edit... Time +patience are the key "
Quite. A decent base picture is far more important. |

It's hard to argue with your results
Putting actual effort into my photos made an insane difference I found |

I use CaptureOne for all editing in raw, and you can still buy it as a standalone package instead of cloud subscription. If it’s a professional shoot and some retouching is required, then a 16bit 300dpi tif into photoshop is a secondary editing stage, but I only do this if I’m getting paid for it. If I’ve shot something with a phone (which isn’t often), I just use the basic editing tools in the phone. |

Judging by a lot of photos that end up in top pics, unless you know how to professionally edit pics using the smudge tool to make things bigger/smaller, don’t bother. It’s painful obviously when stuff in the background is messed up
As for filters, you can’t filter your way out of a bad pic. Good lighting + good cameras gonna do a lot better then trying to patch up low effort with filters |
