I’ll get the others at some point. Shame it doesn’t update anymore, I’m pretty sure the devs could add some absolutely amazing features now with AI being widely implemented in other apps. Come on devs update these beauties.. ### 5/5 — Long time use *2025-12-04, version 10.9* Very detailed and expressive app. Most excellent ### 5/5 — Amazing App For Illustrators & Makers *2025-12-03* This app is just the thing for anyone interested in designing and creating their own depictions of space. High quality graphic elements provide the opportunity to produce some amazing AI-free speculative stellar art. Kudos to the the developer team. I would give it 6 or 7 out of 5 stars if developers updated the app and added a few more of the amazing stellar images now available through NASA, as well as more precise controls to dial up or down the editing controls, and masking brush. ### 5/5 — Great!! *2025-08-30, version 10.9* I love this app! It’s so much fun to be creative!! ### 5/5 — Excellence always! *2024-09-06* Love the ease of use and quality of this app. I have all of them and enjoy creating art with them! Thanks!! ### 3/5 — Border *2024-01-20* I love it and it’s fun to play with but there is an invisible border around each photo I use that prevents whatever image I try to insert from going all the way to the edge. I’ve updated the app, too. ### 1/5 — Boring app and nothing new *2023-01-14, version 10.9* Only photo 🥱😴 ### 5/5 — Awesomely done! *2022-06-26* #CRAZYFUNNYCATS66 from youtube/Instagram loves this app!
