Would be nice to include ability to input multiple words, as Word Foto does! Still, worth the price ### 2/5 — Kinda works but disappointing *2016-07-12, version 4.30* I thought this app would be like word foto but this app is very frustrating to use and it asks for money every time you open it ### 2/5 — hmmm, nice try *2016-04-06* I think the name is problematic- a typo? Cute. But this app has to be compared to Wordfoto. I find the interface for this app to be clearer honestly, but Wordfoto is much more robust...even after you pay for the full version of this one which I did, but somehow by doing that in-app, I can't write a review for it in app-store. Wordfoto allows you to choose multiple fonts. This doesn't. Wordfoto has slide bars for you to adjust opacity of filters...you don't get that here. And the reason I really won't be using this app much? The words look like they are on sticky note boxes all over...in Wordfoto there is a font choice that gives you a similar look, but you can bypass it and normally I do. I don't know of anyone else trying to compete in this word collage over a pic space, so I am happy to see someone try, but I guess the price for Wordfoto is worth it. It is a few bucks more, but gives you more options, and ones that make a better result in the long run. ### 2/5 — Creative but not great *2015-04-26, version 4.30* Destroys the picture too much, not enough control. Nice if like very abstract work. Could be so much better. ### 4/5 — Its a good app but... *2015-02-22, version 4.30* Amazing app but it keeps prodding you to buy the full version. GET if you don't mind not having every possibility unless you pay ### 3/5 — Crashes? *2014-07-13, version 4.30* I'm not sure if the app is god or not because every time I try to open the app, it opens and then freezes. It either freezes and I can do anything, even hit the home button, or it crashes. Could you please see if this happens to anyone else and try to fix it? ### 1/5 — it crashes *2014-05-07, version 4.30* i downloaded then i clicked on it and wont let me on it! ### 1/5 — Uhhh *2014-05-03, version 4.30* It won't let me on it any more ### 1/5 — Bupkis *2014-05-03, version 4.30* Not a lot of control so the pic quickly becomes just words on a page without a lot of definition. Tried four, none were particularly worthwhile and so didn't save at all. ### 1/5 — We'll it will be cooler. *2014-04-24, version 4.30* Depending what you want it for. It worked ok for the back ground but on a picture of a person we'll not as good. I think if you make it more adjustable it would be better. Thank you ### 1/5 — $ 2.99 it's not worth it *2014-03-01* The effect is somewhat washout and no features to isolate or manipulate the words you want to emphasize. In short no control of the location of highlighted and large words. There's no way you can control the size of the letter disappointing. I bought this in the middle of last year then use this today but still no changes. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Dev have you given up? *2019-04-17, version 4.30* Please last update 4yrs ago c’mon get with the program man. ### 1/5 — 32bit app *2017-12-30, version 4.30* Apple announced all apps should be 64bit back in 2014 so not sure why this app is still 32bit 3 years later. ### 1/5 — Not worth the time! *2016-05-10* First of all, a pop up for Restore or Upgrade or No Thanks. Chose No thanks and tried to create a pic multiple times. Crashed each time then goes to Internet site which instantly takes you to her - App Store. So I WILL write a review. It does not work! Seems like a great idea but the program doesn't execute. You can't even get to choose or take a photo to use because it does all the above. Can a user just use it without having to write a review FIRST. Kinda stupid. Don't get this!! It doesn't work! Period. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2016-04-05, version 4.30* Doesn't even do anything. When I open it, it's like the whole app froze and doesn't let me do anything. Waist of time ### 1/5 — WHY CANT I MAKE IT MY COLOR! *2015-08-31, version 4.30* This app is the stupidest app ever word foto is cheaper and better ### 1/5 — Horrible *2015-07-31, version 4.30* Makes the picture look disgusting, just save some money and buy Wordfoto ### 1/5 — Complete Crapola 💩 *2015-06-13, version 4.30* Look, instead of paying the $2 to upgrade, get wordfoto for $1 which works so much better. ### 1/5 — Doesn't work! *2014-10-28, version 4.30* This app won't open for me. I would love to try it! ### 1/5 — horrible!! *2014-07-18, version 4.30* you couldn't even tell what photo i used, it was just a blurry, low quality, messy, dumb edit. ### 1/5 — Bad!😔 *2014-06-17, version 4.30* I looks terrible!!! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Cool it delivers sample try it out cool *2021-09-28* It's cool works a changed cool graphics in my photo weirdness cool it worked and mo' better than other editors out ### 5/5 — 👍🏻 *2016-06-15, version 4.30* I'm really liking this app. Works great on iPad Pro. ### 5/5 — Really cool *2015-09-18, version 4.30* I love all the great things you can do with an otherwise bad picture. Fixes all and makes it awesome! ### 5/5 — Awesome *2015-03-16, version 4.30* I just can't stop using it I love it my photos look amazing and that's the free one I am so buying aTypo Picture 2 I love it🌐😍😘 ### 5/5 — Ky. *2014-10-02, version 4.30* I love this app !!!!! So cool & easy to use !!!!!!!! ### 5/5 — Stunning results *2014-06-30* Mess around with this app enough and the results can be amazing. If you don't like your initial results, try a different picture. I suggest editing first in a different app to create a high contrast image. ### 5/5 — I LOVE THIS APP! *2014-06-30, version 4.30* I love words! I could NEVER get tired of an app that lets me use any combination of them to color any of my photos. My favorite app right now. ... ### 5/5 — Awesome App *2014-05-24, version 4.30* It's a good app but it does not let you get rid of words that you don't use. I would highly recommend you get this app!!!!!!!!!! ### 5/5 — Don't listen to them..... *2014-05-20* If it's art that you are looking to create on your iPad that has a super urban and abstract feel- this is definitely an app that you should get!! I paid the 2.99 and honestly am TOTALLY content with my purchase!!! And off I go to create more masterpieces...... ### 5/5 — Pretty good *2013-11-15, version 4.22* Has about everything you need to edit photos or make memes. Really easy to use. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
