Google Acquires Nik Software

We are pleased to announce that Google has acquired Nik Software. For nearly 17 years, we’ve been guided by our motto, “photography first”, as we worked to build world class digital image editing tools. We’ve always aspired to share our passion for photography with everyone, and with Google’s support we hope to be able to help many millions more people create awesome pictures.

We’re incredibly grateful for all of your support and hope you’ll join us on the next phase of our journey as part of Google.

All our best!

The Nik Software Team

If you're an original NIK employee, I bet the deal looks very tasty

As long as hey don't lose the brains behind the software in teh shuffle - hopefully they made the tech team an offer they couldn't refuse.

snapseed doesn't exist in my world.
like i said, maybe we'll see some nik apps soon. no, you're right, i should have added the word "good" before the word nik in my original statement..
