The invention provides a filtering sequencing method and a filter sequencing device for a picture processing application. The filter sequencing method comprises the steps of loading the picture to be processed in the picture processing application; obtaining the historical use frequency of each filter in the picture processing application by a user, wherein the total number of the filters is M; sequencing the M filters according to a sequence that the historical use frequencies gradually reduce from a highest frequency to a lowest frequency, taking the front N filters, wherein N
