In this article we will know that how you can use these tools and what effect will they exactly cause on your photos.
Use Color Tool and Fade Tool on Instagram

Once you crop the image, add filters to it and then reach the last stage of the changes, where tool are supposed to be used. For example, changing the contrast of the image colors or the brightness levels or increasing the sharpness. You will see both the options of Color Tool or Fade Tool among the other tools as mentioned below in the screenshot.
Now, tap Color tool, where you will see that you have many options of colors. You can tap on any of those colors and a layer of that color will be overlaid over the image, something which you are seeing below. You can tap on that same selected color again to change the intensity of color over that layer.
