  • So. Many. LONG. Ads.

    I’ve used photogrid since I was 10 years old and I am almost 22 now. I remember when ads were first introduced to the app, it was a little annoying, but at least you could easily tap out of them. Now, you will be stuck with minute long unskippable ads that also have ‘play the game yourself!’ part after the ad, that you must also sit and stare at before you can finally get to your photo editing. 12 years ago, this app was great! Almost everything was free! But now you’re constantly bombarded by ads, the app asking you to upgrade to a subscription, and a lot of features that were previously free are locked behind paywalls. Do yourself a favor and use Canva. Better graphics and stickers, no invasive ads, more modern&trendy templates available, no forcing its watermark on your content, and while Canva has a subscription, it’s not always begging you for money and putting a ton of ads in your face.

  • FRUSTRATING - slow and always crashes

    I've been using - AND PAYING - for this app for years. I really like a lot of its features and the ease of its interface. HOWEVER. It CONSTANTLY frustrates me. It crashes every time I use it for more than 10 minutes. It takes FOREVER to load photo albums when selecting images to add to a grid - almost like old school dial up internet speeds. I keep thinking they're going to fix it eventually, and instead they're adding stupid premium features this app doesn't need. If I can't even add text to photos without the app crashing, I definitely don't trust it to do "animations" or whatever without crashing. Also, the grid format selection screen recently changed and is totally ridiculous. Please change it back so the regular photo grid options are up first, not all the weird star shapes and repetitive "scrapbook" layouts, thanks. Also fix it so it doesn't crash!! I don't want to find a new app but this is ridiculous, it shouldn't still take me an hour to edit 3 photo grids. (It wouldn't take that long if I didn't have to start over when it repeatedly crashes halfway through my work). I have this problem on iPhone 13 Pro AND iPad Pro.

  • Too many ads that take 3 mins to get Rid of.

    Ads in PhotoGrid takes a very long time to disappear. I bought PhotoGrid a few times when I had my business 6 yrs ago but in the last year in order to use the Free version, you now gave to wait about 3 mins for one Ad to go away and then the X appears so you can then close the pesty Ads. I had to delete the App several times in order to use the free version to edit my photos, it's very time consuming and not worth it anymore. I will delete the App for good today. I feel PhotoGrid is trying to FORCE consumers to BUY it so we can stop using the free version. PhotoGrid, consumers does not like being forced to do anything. So I will find another Free Editing App that I can use with Not so many Ads, until my budget allow me to Purchase it. PhotoGrid hello, Inflation is high in the US and ppl are being laid off after the Pandemic bc the feds are increasing interest rates in order to bring down the cost of products and goods, which helps lower inflation, but also comes with increasing interest rates, companies start laying off and/or end up going bankrupt, so not too many companies are hiring right now besides the ones that pay $8 an hr, No one can pay a mortgage and take care a family off $8 an hr, so these Apps will wait to be purchased until we get extra money to spend on wants. But our needs are priority and comes first, like putting food on the table, paying mortgage so families can have a roof their head, are the most important.

  • From 5 stars to zero to 5.

    When the app up graded it added a lot more capabilities that I was not expecting and I did not know how to use, but being that this was ( now it is again )one of my favorite app, I had to give it one more chance and I'm glad I did. Graded I use the app for crating reports; however, I do no use any of the new functions, but I am able to make very precise reports using this app. So I can vouch it's use as a engineering investigation aid and I can't think of a better assistant for get a point across to a customers and/or contractors. 5 stars for that. This is my favorite app once again now that I understand the great upgrades. Great job!!!

    Still one of my favorite 5 years later.

  • Love this App!!

    It’s easy to use. So many templates for many occasions to use to create the perfect masterpiece. I’ve been using it a year and so far am very satisfied. There’s only one thing I could recommend to add to the app….unless I just haven’t figured out where it is. If it would be possible to not have to always started a project with being required to choose a picture from my phone. I would like to possibly create a project using just a template in the app and edit it how I want from scratch. I don’t always want to create a project using a photo…just a template and a phrase.

  • One of the best free photo apps on the market

    I have been using the photo grid for many years. There are so many features. I used this a lot to watermark my photos on my website business. There are so many features with the free version. I used the free version for many years but recently like all the features even better with the $35 annual membership that gave me access to everything you can imagine. Give it a try. I have tried many similar apps, and this is the most user-friendly, with incredible features and editing options. May I add I even made my family Christmas card collage with this app that included my husband and me with our three kids and five dogs.

  • Updated review, Dropped to one star

    Luckily the watermark can be turned off or I would have deleted the app. The collage section is great but they get three stars for all the clutter they have crammed into this app. Photo Grid, you don't have to be like Instagram…… Update: Since my first review, I have dropped my rating to one star and removed the app. They have monetized removing the water mark and they have decided to put ads in to hold your work hostage. It’s very annoying to add photos then have viral ads pop up when you are trying to see your pictures. This app was fine In it’s older iterations but it’s unbearable now. I don’t use this ad enough to warrant paying for a subscription and I’m not going to be held hostage by ads in order to coerce me into buying a subscription just so I don’t get inconvenienced. I’m hoping Apple just adds a collage feature to photos in the future.

  • Scam

    This photo grid app, keeps putting notifications on the screen to access a free trial. I already had a free trial. Once you have a free trial , you can no longer get that trial again for free. The notification stays on the screen and gives me three options, 1. Continue, 2. Try trial or 3. give up. Then it has an x in the upper right corner. I clicked on the x to navigate me back to the photo grid app photo editor, but it took me back to the screen with the three options. I was afraid to click on a option, because I did not want to accidentally click on the wrong option and get charged for a subscription that is not free. Because trials are only free once. This notification is misleading and is edited to confuse the app user into clicking the wrong option and making an unintended purchase. I’m going to take screenshots of this and report this as a scam.. because that’s what it is.. Stop forcing app users to subscribe to a free subscription when they have already had a free subscription and stop manipulating your ads to cause app users to make an accidental purchase.. this is manipulative robbery and you need to be sewed.

  • Best app - but the latest?

    This is the best application I have used for sharing my Instagram and Facebook posts. The latest update, however, has added 10 to 15 minutes to my day because of things that broke in the latest update.

    Going between my prepared slides, the old version remembered my ratio, remembered my border sizes, and remembered my font, colors, and shadows. Now, I have to manually update and change everyone of these settings between every slide that I prepare. I am hopeful that the memory of the prior used functions will be restored back to the program!?!?!?

  • Great App for Side By Side Pics

    Great app that we can use for side by side pics with our Executive Protection Agency. I don’t usually give 5 stars for apps that we use at work but this app helped up catch someone we had been looking for and we had a pic that was over 4 years old and we did a side by side because our regular source and agency couldn’t Identify this suspect because he developed a new scar and had gained about 100 pounds. So I would recommend this app! I wouldn’t pay the price for it because it’s sorta too expensive so the free version works just fine.
