Unfold; Missing it’s Potential
Charging fo a great app is fine, but in this case they charge a lot for very little, often close to 3 dollars for a few story blanks that are soon recognized making stories predictable. I paid for one such add on because I wanted to keep things fresh, but what I received was only a few more templates, within a few weeks I left this app and went to an annual plan on another and for much less than buying one theme, I received all of the themes and have had over 7 themes added without additional cost, including themes with motion/automation. That App, “StoryArt” is amazing and they constantly improve their app. Go ahead and buy one of what Unfold offers and you too will be switching soon. I wish I could get my 3 dollars back, it was a poor investment. Unfold is easy to use and has great potential but very little creativity is offered and what is offered is very limited.Show lessRemaxastar

Hi there, thank you so much for the feedback. We appreciate it and are hearing your thoughts and comments. We are going to send this feedback to our design and development team with hopes of implementing it in the future versions of Unfold. Hope you have a great day!packages/crop ratio
I love this app so much !! It’s amazing to use for stories to create a consistent timeline of posts. The way the app is organized is quick to figure out and easy to post straight to social media. I just wish it had more template options released more frequently. Also, the ration for the pictures is perfect for stories, but not to post on regular social media apps. If it had a square option, a 5:7 portrait mode, and 5:3 landscape mode option I would be more than happy to use it as I post without having to find another app to rotate and crop, etc.Show lessTheThymeTravlr
Loving it!
Story:
I was always looking for fonts to put in my stories. Or when I was congratulating my friends and more stuff like this. Well now I know what app to use I recommend it so badly the fonts are just so aesthetic and there are nothing over the top and that is good because sometimes the simpler the better.
Feedback:
Well you could use more fonts and you could make it be no money. Like you can unlock but still besides that I absolutely love it [btw I know every app has to have some things that require money it was just a suggestion]Show lessaint mcdonals but im loving it
My go-to story app!
I usually just stick to the free stuff, but this app deserves every penny I’ve spent so far. I’m super pleased that there is no watermark, and the new template packages that they release are usually about $1-$2, and well worth the money.
My main concern:
Every time I fall in love with an app, the developers get greedy and toss in a watermark & monthly subscription to keep the watermarks off. I REALLY really hope that doesn’t happen with this app. I buy upgrades. Grandfather customers like me please, if you ever do decide to do that 🙏🏽Show lessOpticalDelusion13
Nice but needs additional features
Good app. Not totally intuitive but once you figure it out it’s solid. Crashes trying to export sometimes but it’s a minor inconvenience. However a few major additions are needed:
1. The ability to see and edit your entire story in grid format instead of only being able to see it page by page - if you’re creating a long story it’s really hard to remember what was 20 pages before! I want to be able to drag and drop just like reordering images in a desktop image viewer. Also if you could see your story in grid format, it would be much easier to tell if you have used the same layout too many times or accidentally used an image more than once.
2. The ability to duplicate the page - for example if you want to try the same layout which has multiple images but only swap out one image, it is annoying to re-create the entire page instead of just being able to duplicate, dame goes for a text page with which you want to try different wording.
3. Full screen (borderless) image layoutShow lessluxetnox13
Amazing but has glitches and no customization
I really love using Unfold for planning Instagram stories. It’s super useful for organizing long stories because it can get confusing knowing what comes next. I’m giving it 4 stars because there are a lot of issues that I was surprised to find, as well as embarrassed because I discovered the issues after I had posted for a client.
If the videos aren’t 15 seconds long then they replay over and over instead of skipping to the next story. I posted a 3 second video which plays 5 times in a row...
There’s not much room for customization. For example, you can’t use your own custom colors and you can’t move the text diagonal. The templates are what they are and even though I have purchased every pack it is a struggle to not reuse the same templates over and over. You don’t have the option to adjust the size of the squares so it would be nice if they offered variations of each template.
It’s time consuming changing the text for every slide! I wasted so much time going setting the same font,color, size, spacing, etc. for every single slide. There should be the ability to set a default text style for a story.
I recommend Unfold and think it’s a great app but until they fix the items listed above I’ll be looking for an alternative.Show lessCowlesk

Hi there, thank you so much for your feedback. It's all super useful for our review and to think of how we can improve in future updates of Unfold. We're aware of some flaws and we hope to fix them and improve in due time! We're super appreciative of our users for giving us so much good feedback on how we can improve! Thank you again! We hope you have an amazing day!Amazing and very worth it
I absolutely love this app! Being a social media person for more than one organization, it is been a tremendous help when it comes to generating stories for both Instagram and Facebook. I love that it expands your options with different templates and numerous font styles. The only thing that I do not like about this app is that it only saves 15 second video clips. So if I have a video that’s a minute long, I have to hope and pray that I can cut it at the right spot to make a smooth Transition when I bring it over to the app. I would truly give this app a fifth star if we were able to save longer videos!Show lessThe masks l
Great app but...
Wish there was a way to swap out templates for another after selecting a picture when the first selected template isn’t a good fit with the picture once you see them together. Currently you have to delete the page and then select a new template then finally select the picture again. It would just be faster and more convenient if there was an option to continuously swap templates.
ALSO! There should be a way to resize the white boxes on the templates. One size does not always work for every picture.Show lessChristinaM1288
I love it!
This app is so tasteful, and allow you to keep memories and create stories in very simple and elegant way. As mentioned before by others, it a pity that there is no option to share the book/story as a proper book/story, online or in print.
If the app would only partner with one of the photo book apps, shutterfly for instance, you would make so much from people like me, who spent 3 hours creating a story book with the best moments of my kids in the year, and now I don’t have a practical way of printing it in a proper album format.
Overall, congratulations on the beautifully created app!Show lessFreitD
So Close to Perfection
The charm of Unfold is that it is such a simple shortcut to the tedious photoshop work that photographers did to post on Instagram stories. And the team has done a stellar job in expanding the app’s capabilities.
But there are a few things that they are yet to include or did poorly.
1: The export picture ratio is set for older phones like the iPhone 7, but with new screen sizes and shapes, Unfold should launch an update that supports screen sizes like the iPhone XS
2: The first 3 sets were kind of repetitive, people paid for new templates that simply moves a photo a bit higher or more to the right. Granted some of the template were fresh and new, but lots were too similar.
3: One thing that could really enhance the user experience would be to add in a creative mode where you could alter a certain template by moving your photograph anywhere on the page, not just the grey box with the + icon. Or even a creative mode where users could mix and match certain aspects of different templates they’ve bought.
These three things would set apart Unfold from other apps like Adobe Spark or Photoshop. And it would become the most sold choice for quick wallpapers, IG story posts, or photo stories.Show lessStephaniemontesdeoca
