Ads within 2 minutes block full screen

The app didn’t allow me to go two minutes without the whole screen covered in ads, with no way to dismiss them. Even when I clicked the ad, it wouldn’t go away. It’s impossible to try this ad for even the most basic functions.

There are literally dozens if not hundreds of apps that have similar functions, and it makes no sense to pay for an ad that doesn’t let you get at least some feel for it. Give a user a week, or just day or, heck, even just an hour before completely breaking the functionality. Not letting you use it properly for even two minutes suggests the creator is not confident in the quality of their own product. Just avoid, save the time. Lots of better options out there worth paying for.

TERRIBLE APP

I couldn’t use, everytime that I open the app one different advertising opens.

Misleading name and description

This is not a dedicated black and white photo editor as the description leads you to believe. It is a very basic colour editor with a few black and white filters thrown in. And a lot of annoying ads. It’s ok as a very basic editor, if that’s what you’re after.....but there are better ones available in the App Store. Anything you can do with this you can probably do better with another editor.

Like another person said you are automatically hit with some kind of spam add that takes you to the App Store I finally got back to the app by pushing my home button in the process of pushing the home button and it said that I purchased a limited access to the app I never purchased apps!
