### 4/5 — Wish there were more effects

*2024-06-12*

Had a certain vision in my head with this palm tree picture and I didn’t want to pay a subscription but I guess that’s the way now. I really just wanted a rip or zip in the photo. Found a bi filter with a pink and green look that’s pretty cool tho

### 4/5 — not bad.

*2014-12-23*

I got this app not too long ago & there's nothing wrong with it. I was hoping for more effects since it costed money. it'd probably get more downloads if it was free. can you make some effects that make Trippy Effect 7 & 8 in color? also, could you make an effect that is like 7 & 8 but the lines go horizontal? that'd be really cool because those are my favorite effects.

### 5/5 — This is flawless

I don't rate apps but this is everything you need
