### 4/5 — Масштаб

*2023-10-03, version 1.2.5*

Было бы хорошо, если былы бы функция менять масштаб одного из кадров

### 4/5 — MPO uploads

*2023-07-25, version 1.2.5*

Hi, this app seems really straightforward to use for composing your own 3-D photos, but I’m not sure how to access the MPO files which is the main reason I’ve got it. I have a 3-D camera and I would like to use this to set the MPO files side-by-side.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2022-10-20, version 1.2.5*

I use this app to make wigglegrams. Only things I wish for is the ability to use more than 2 images and an option to rotate photo before exporting. Otherwise perfect t

### 5/5 — Need it?

*2022-10-12, version 1.2.5*

This does it💯with options❣️

### 5/5 — Please make Oculus Quest 2 exports

*2021-10-10, version 1.2.5*

If you could make 180vr 3d photos for viewing in Oculus Quest 2 it would be amazing! Has to work with fisheye clip-on lenses and convert fisheye images into equirectangular.

### 5/5 — Best!

*2020-12-14, version 1.2.4*

One of my favorite apps for stereo photography! Simple and fast!

### 5/5 — Wow! Almost perfect!

*2020-11-09, version 1.2.4*

I got this app because I wanted a good way to take 3-D photos on my iPhone. As it turns out, it worked much better than I expected. It can also convert portrait mode photos into 3D images as well. Sometimes it says that the depth map is corrupted when using portrait mode photos, but that is easily fixed by cropping the image to the center of the subject and then reverting back to the original. I do wish that there was an option to create 3D lenticular images to print.

### 4/5 — Excellent!

*2020-10-16, version 1.2.4*

I have been searching for something like Stereo Photo Maker on Mac/Windows for the iPad, and found this app.
Overall, it works very well. The best thing about it is that it will recognize and import MPO files from the Fuji W3 stereo camera.
I have a couple of items on my wish list for this app:
1) it would be helpful to have a cropping function for the left & right photos, since I don’t always want to use the entire frame from a W3 photo.
2) it would be VERY useful for the export options to include the standard 3.5” x 7” stereo card format. I would be perfectly fine with paying for an IAP to include these two features. These are the only things keeping me from giving it 5 stars.
Otherwise, this is a great app, and works really well for processing and exporting my stereo photos. Well done!

### 5/5 — Прекрасное приложение для стереопар

*2020-08-20, version 1.2.4*

Это лучшее и самое удобное приложение для создания стереопар, или стереофотографий! Теперь фотографии приобретают объём. Спасибо большое автору!

### 5/5 — 3D

*2020-07-14, version 1.2.4*

Superb

This app is fun to play with and has many options.

### 5/5 — 3D Photo

*2020-05-16, version 1.2.4*

Having a ball with this and really enjoying it.  Love the various options.  Works very well.  Just discovered this after finding a Brian May Video about this app.  Marvelous.

### 5/5 — Please add 3d video!

*2020-02-19, version 1.2.4*

Please add 3d video and this app will be the best!!!

### 1/5 — It doesn’t work

*2026-03-08, version 1.2.5*

It doesn’t work my 3d glasses are not working on it

### 1/5 — What????

*2022-01-04, version 1.2.5*

Not as easy as directed

### 1/5 — Directions

*2021-02-03, version 1.2.4*

The directions are very vague on how to successfully use this app can you please provide a instructional video for newbies to 3D photos

### 1/5 — Can’t find viewing mode

*2021-01-09, version 1.2.4*

Pic is very small. No viewing mode to be found.

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2020-05-28, version 1.2.4*

Doesn’t take 3D images

### 1/5 — Uploading not working

*2019-11-27, version 1.1.0*

Upload can crash the app on I pad mini 4 iOS 13 ver so please keep in mind to fix this

### 3/5 — Still the best but..

*2024-04-24, version 1.2.5*

It’s not working well with the new ios. Loading the individual photos loses the dynamic range of the original iphone photos, causing the 3d output to be flat looking.

### 3/5 — It’s odd

*2020-12-26, version 1.2.4*

It’s dosent look 3D when I put on my 3D glasses but the app sounds interesting

### 3/5 — Cardboard-Modus geht nicht...

*2019-12-09, version 1.1.0*

... aber sonst ganz brauchbar.

Description: The screen remains black. iOS 13.2.3 in iPhone XR.

### 3/5 — Awesome app!

*2018-09-30, version 1.0.1*

It is amazing and works just perfect. However it’d be a 5 stars if it had the option to export as a video as you are not able to upload gif format to Instagram!

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Perfect!!

*2026-03-21, version 1.2.5*

Can’t ask for much
More than this!

### 5/5 — First use

*2025-10-13, version 1.2.5*

An amazing app, worked first time, very easy to use

### 5/5 — Intuitive Interface

*2025-09-29, version 1.2.5*

Piece of cake! Pick the Left then Right image and go! Just be sure to keep the camera level. 👍

### 5/5 — Great intro to stereo

*2025-07-08, version 1.2.5*

I got this app to learn more about how to take stereo images. They turn out pretty good and it’s fun to experiment with! My only wish is that I could throw a dollar or two to make the ads go away. While the ads are pretty non-intrusive, I just think they’re ugly against the dark background of the app.

### 5/5 — AMAZING FOR 3DS

*2025-05-26, version 1.2.5*

I use this app to export and realign my 3DS files into a gif file

### 5/5 — Genau so etwas habe ich gesucht

*2024-08-27, version 1.2.5*

Eine gut funktionierende App. Meine Wünsche wären: MPO Export/Import, mehr Einstellmöglichkeiten, Blitz an/aus, ISO-Wahl, vielleicht auch Base-Calc. Bin aber auch jetzt schon zufrieden. Super!

### 5/5 — Fantistic pics

*2024-06-26, version 1.2.5*

Amazing 3D anaglyphs! Would be cool if the app maker made 3D videos too with 2 family phones. Also give this tech to 3D anaglyph phones with 2 cameras one top and bottom in smartphones

### 5/5 — Easy to create stereo images!

*2023-11-30, version 1.2.5*

This app is very easy to use. Thank you. 

Recommended improvement would be the ability to zoom in or crop photos.

### 5/5 — Simple,easy, does what it should and more!

*2023-04-20, version 1.2.5*

Simple,easy, clean (AD is minimal and does not slow any Workflow).
Very usefull with lots of features for Exports.
I really love it, because it supports from shot to presentation. 
The only features I am missing are:
1.)  to switch between cameras on iPhone 13. Wide/Regular/Tele, or even free zoom would be nice.
2.) a hint what is the current distance for side shift, e.g when you take the second picture the cuttend shiftingwidth could be shown on screen.
3.) AE lock between first and second picture

### 5/5 — Potential

*2023-02-13, version 1.2.5*

This is good, very good. But I am sure that people are saying that it needs a video mode. Personally, I think that this app is very helpful. As for me, I would want a stop motion mode but that probably isn’t easy
