### 1/5 — Rarely works, years since updates

*2024-01-17*

I should of checked the dates of the review. Waste of a few quid. Interface gets stuck on pictures used and won’t show new ones, crashes out lots of times. Shame as it was a simple thing that it worked I would quite like

### 3/5 — Flash problem

*2023-11-12*

Bro, I’m tryna do a time-development project and I really need to flash to turn off, is there not a button to turn off the flash ? or is it just my phone not working

### 1/5 — Super potentiel mais

*2022-11-08*

Enfin une application qui fait dès avant après parfait ! Gros problème c’est que je prends la majorité avec le grand angle de mon téléphone. Du coup impossible de faire dès avant après avec des anciennes photo :/ ça serait top de rajouter juste le choix de l’objectif ! Sinon c’est super :)

### 1/5 — Do not buy

*2022-10-20*

Awful app. Constantly crashing when trying to select photos. Unusable

### 1/5 — 0 Sterne

*2022-02-21*

Totaler Schwachsinn

### 5/5 — App works excellent after becoming familiar

*2021-11-11*

I purchased this app to align two previously taken pictures, and to my surprise found it wasn't possible.  After contacting the programmer and receiving a timely response, I discovered alignment is achieved only when taking the second photo.  It's simple as you: 

1) Select (or take) the 1st photo
2) Acquire a second photo by taking a picture.  When preparing to "snap" a second photo, alignment of the that one (with the 1st) becomes obvious.

I noticed from some low rated reviews they had the same expectations as I did when purchasing.  After pursuing it further did I find how it worked and am glad I did.  In taking the second picture, you are aiming the image on your phone camera through a transparent "template" of the first, enabling a very versatile alignment method.
Now that I'm familiar with it's use, I'm looking forward to some sharp before & after photos!

### 2/5 — “Before” and “after” font

*2021-05-13*

Could the developers have put in a bit more effort for the “before” and “after” font?
Geeez, how hard is it to find a stylish font?

### 2/5 — Import from camera roll doesn’t work

*2020-11-20*

I’ve tried to import “before” photos from my camera roll and when I’ve selected the picture/s I want. I only get a black screen and when you click done the app crashes and goes to the desktop icons. This app doesn’t do as it states and is full of bugs! Looks like it will work when taking pictures with the app, but I’m not doing my project again for that.

### 1/5 — Total schwach !

*2020-03-21*

Ich habe 2 fast identische Vorher/ Nachherbilder - alles währe gut wenn ich jetzt eines ans andere durch skalieren anpassen könnte - leider ist das nicht vorgesehen - daher nur 1 stern - für mich weggeworfenes geld ! 
Hoffe ich find was besseres ...! 
Mein tip - finger weg !

### 2/5 — Need an update

*2020-03-21*

Great to take aligned pictures. Pretty basic function. but too simple. Also need update, for example, app just quit. It cannot delete a project.
