Presets are pre-packaged looks that enable you to apply nuanced color corrections to you images and videos with ease. They are custom made by VSCO, and they cannot be fully replicated with the VSCO tools.
Presets have short names like “A1” to help you remember which ones you like. Tap on a preset to see its effect applied to your image. Tap a preset again to see its full name and adjust its strength.
There are two main types of presets:

Choosing presets is a very enjoyable experience for many, but it can be overwhelming at first with so many options to choose from. The category tabs in the preset view can help you narrow down the list and discover preset types. Additionally, the L, U, G, and AL presets are built for landscapes, urban settings, portraits, and artificial lighting, respectively, so these might be a good starting point if you’re working with those types of images.
However, there are no rules, so just find what you like, add it to your favorites, and get creative.
