Almost perfect…

I would have given it 5 stars but your app is absolutely terrible when it comes to human body parts, like hands, legs, and feet!

The App Needs an Update.

Used to be a great app. Then they did an update 4 months ago and it made the experience way worse. Now they haven even update since then. What’s the point of a monthly subscription if you do update the app?

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. We’re sorry the experience didn’t meet your expectations. Our subscription supports ongoing development and advanced features, but we understand it’s not for everyone. We appreciate you giving the app a try.

Subscription issues

I purchased a one year subscription at the beginning of September 2025. I recently switched to a new phone and now my subscription doesn’t work when I tap the icon. It completely does not recognize me. What makes this frustrating is that it’s virtually impossible to get in touch with support to help me fix the issue.

Sorry for the frustration this caused. If you previously purchased a subscription, please tap the “Already Purchased?” button on the paywall or in the Membership Dashboard. This will prompt the App Store to restore your purchase and verify your subscription status. All subscription verification is handled directly by the App Store. If the issue persists or you have any questions, please contact us at BEAM@piccollage.com.

Discontinued the better visual effects

Discontinued best visual effects then the last effect I was using failed. Message popped up No Internet Connection. Wrong! Connection was FINE and the other effects succeeded FINE. What’s with the recent lunacy???

Stop pestering me

I’m trying to use the app and all it does is ask me to write a review. It asked me six times editing three photos. No, that’s not OK. And aside from that, it doesn’t do the best job with faces. It mangles faces a lot of times. It will not blend colors as well.

I like it

It’s fast and easy to use

Great app and totally FREE

I bought the paid version and I’m quite happy with it although I will admit if you do not have Internet access, you cannot use all of the features. I particularly like the x-ray filter, which can turn a photo of a person into an x-ray and the winter wonder filter unfortunately with the latest update, they got rid of that filter, which I kind of find it unusual since we’re heading into winter hopefully they will my read my updated review and bring it back because it really is a good filter and it should be a year-round filter just like the x-ray filter is now. So please keep the x-ray filter and bring back the winter wonder filter PLEASE. If you need a visual effect filter to get rid of try getting rid of the pink bubbles it doesn’t look realistic at all or the scrapbook filter or even the triple purple those are my least favorite filters. Don’t bother sending them they don’t respond. I’ve tried although they have responded to reviews. I’ve left here. One last request if you’re going to do updates, please let us know what features will be taken away in those updates because honestly if I had known you were gonna take the winter wonder visual filter away I never would’ve done the update.

This is a really good app to get if you’d like to be creative with the photos you take. it’s fun to take photos of your friends and turn them into x-rays then use the winter wonder filter to make it look like they’re in a winter. Let’s hope they read this review and bring it back.

Hey! Thank you so much for your kind words and thoughtful review. The BEAM team really appreciates it. 'Golden hour' is our newest and most experimental Beta effect and so any feedback on how to improve it is, well... golden! 🌞😎✨ If you have time, we'd love to hear any further feedback or questions you might have. You can email us at BEAM@piccollage.com any time - we'd especially love to hear which filter turned your photo into a masterpiece (so we can make more filters like this, of course!) All the best, Alice (Team BEAM 🌞)

What happened

I used to use beam for funny family pics with music or movie lines?
Where did it go. I’ll take my refund now.

Fabulous

⭐️⭐️⭐️

Why did you make the app subscription-based? It was good, and it didn't have a watermark. I regret updating the app and will delete it. ):

It is free

It’s nice to see that. There are actual apps that can’t be for free that are fun to play with. Hope it stays this way…

No pay, no gain ;(

Easy, I understand the costs… Ok.
But c’mon, where’s the iPad support?
If you give to iPad support, I will consider to pay for gain; a mutual gain.

Cool app

Cool

Doesn’t work.

Whenever I try and generate an image it saids something went wrong check your internet connection..
