  • Great App!

    I love this app! I’ve converted many photos to this format! Well worth the money for the upgraded version!
  • Great App

    One of my favorite apps
    Easy to use, beautiful results
  • Very nice

    I’ve been using this for a couple of years now. It creates a pretty good approximation of a watercolor sketch. Sometimes I even use it as an aid in painting my own watercolors, as it can nicely reduces images to their fundamentals. That being said, I would love it if in the next update the creators would also allow for only minimally altering an image, as oftentimes landmark shapes (Yosemite’s Half Dome, for example) are turned into unrecognizable blobs. The lack of fine control aside, great app. Thanks!

  • Unrecognisable

    I bought this to turn a scenic photo into a watercolour effect. The result was a bunch of smudges that you’d be hard pushed to recognise as the original mountain, village and sea side that it was. I thought maybe my photo was a little complex so I chose to turn a photo of a kid in bright simple clothes, no other distractions in the photo, into a watercolour. The result was a crude roughly organised collection of smudges again with no detail. It looked like one of those ‘what can you see in this watercolour ‘ psychology tests. Just awful, and I was really excited by this and went by previous reviews - Marybeth the app has gone through a change since those customers reviews it. Big shame

  • Compelling App

    I almost didn’t buy this app, but I’m glad I did as it is easy to use and renders beautiful results. So why did I almost ignore it? Because of the app icon, which features a cartoonish whale holding an umbrella in the rain, which to me seems more suitable for something in the app category for Kids. Is this poor marketing? The app icon offers little indication of the high-quality painterly app behind it. I suspect that Waterlogue’s app icon has discouraged people from buying the app itself. Which is too bad because it’s a great app.

  • Waterlogue is superb!

    For someone who loves the water color effects on their pictures to look realistic and yet have an App that does not confuse...gives excellent results...keeps true color depending on your choice of selection and gives you the ability to choose size... In my estimation, it is among the finest Apps in this particular field.

    I definitely would highly recommend Waterlogue to Water Color Enthusiasts!

  • Didn’t meet expectations

    Sorry that I paid that much money for this app. Had read that it was a great app but was disappointed in the results. Found another app for free that I enjoy much more.
  • Does one thing very well

    I have a lot of photo editing and art apps on my phone and iPad, but come back to Waterlogue consistently because it does the best watercolor effect of any app I’ve used. Does it do filters, cropping, etc., etc.? No, but sometimes when an app does everything. It doesn’t always do them very well. Waterlogue is easy to use, give you choices in terms of color and size of the brush, and gives great results.

  • Really Good.

    I downloaded this App because it was recommended to me by a friend. When I got it I wasn’t expecting much but when I used one of the photos that they offered as a trial photo, it had really good quality. I allowed access to my photo library and started editing away! I got really good photos that I save and look at regularly. But, sometimes I do want to get rid of some lines that the effects come with but there is no erase tool.
    Over all though it is a good app.

  • Outstanding App

    This is a really marvellous app that can achieve effects not possible (to my knowledge) using desktop apps. As a graphic designer I use it all the time to create watercolour versions of photos and artwork I've created in Adobe Illustrator. The results are beautiful, it's a very, very clever bit of software. Buy it you won't be disappointed!

    Update: still marvelling at this app a few years later. When will an OSX version become available?! The only drawback for me is the size I’m restricted to by working on a phone! An ultra high res desktop version would be incredible.
