No longer works

Either this app needs to be updated or Apple needs to remove it from the store. It will not save any creation that you make with it.

The best - needs an update

This is still my favorite Wallpaper blur app. Can we get an interface update for the iPhone X?

Simple, Easy, and Works Well.

The only problem is that it resizes the image. So, when I blur an iPhone X screen sized image, the app changes the image size. Hopefully this will be addressed in an update.
