I never have before. ### 1/5 — All of a sudden… *2023-12-25* The app doesn’t work. I have used this app since 2014 with no issues and now, all of a sudden, it is not working for me. I purchased two premium packs in 2014 and was always abke to use them until now. Nope, I am not satisfied at all about this. ### 1/5 — Pictures not available *2022-12-25* Don’t buy this!! I bought the basic set and I cannot access the other Santa images. Matter of fact, I can’t access any Santa photo a year after purchasing. Terrible. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2021-12-25, version 1.22* So simple to use. Take the pic, easy to add a free sticker with santa. Very realistic. There's paid sticker options but we have never bothered. Have used for last 2 Christmases and my kids tell everyone all year about the picture we have of Santa under their tree! Highly recommend. ### 1/5 — It is disrespectful *2020-12-15* Why the black Santa is cheaper and there are more stickers, than white. ### 5/5 — I love this! *2020-12-13* I purchased the extra stickers. I purchased your Easter bunny and tooth fairy too. This app is amazing and quicker than my photoshop edits. I wish you had an elf on the shelf version! ### 3/5 — Having trouble with purchased stickers *2020-12-07* I purchased additional stickers and it just freezes up and will not let me use. Very frustrating!! Not a lot offered for free 😟Waiting on tech support if they help me I will definitely change my review. ### 5/5 — Best Santa photo app *2019-12-25* I downloaded a few Santa photo apps to make the best photo, and this was the best one. It has a good free Santa, not a fake looking one. And, it allows you to edit the brightness of Santa. It didn’t make sense with the other apps that the living room was dark/dim and Santa was BRIGHT. This app allowed me to adjust just Santa to look darker so he actually looked like he was in our living room. Great! Cute! ### 1/5 — Paid $5 and won’t work at all. *2019-12-25* Very disappointed. I paid for a $4.99 sticker pack and then when I go to use them (any sticker actually) the screen is just frozen. I can’t pick anything let alone go to the pack I actually paid for. Total rip off. Prob will never get my money back either. Merry Christmas ### 1/5 — Can not operate *2019-12-24, version 1.21* Instructions poor. ## Frequently asked questions about Capture The Magic ### How do I add Santa to my photos using Capture The Magic?
