### 1/5 — Misleading

*2023-02-26, version 1.1.1*

The description is misleading. This only works with videos or live photos. Not with still images.

### 1/5 — Не работает

*2022-02-25*

Добавилось только одно видео. Больше ничего не могу добавить, чтоб работать с материалом! Почему так?

### 1/5 — THEY STOLE HUNDREDS FROM ME

*2021-06-03, version 1.1.1*

THIS APP IS A SCAM!!!!!! SAID IT WAS $2.99 AND HUNDREDS WAS TAKEN FROM MY BANK I WANT MY MONEY BACK YOU CROOKS??????!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — Paid for it but won’t download 😣

*2021-06-01, version 1.1.1*

Paid for it but won’t download 😣 what now??

### 5/5 — Very good.

*2021-03-14, version 1.1.1*

Works very well. 
You ‘obviously’ need to start with a video or Live Photo first. 
Brilliant!
Thanks

### 5/5 — Don't waste your money on this. Here's why

*2021-02-21, version 1.1.1*

Update: for some reason, I don’t think there’s been an update, but it works perfect on my iPhone 11 Pro Max, so maybe there has been an update, but either way, great app, does what it’s suppose to, so that’s 5 stars from me now 

Old review: Don't waste your money on this until they come out with an update. They still have it to where the brush does not match up with your fingers so it makes it impossible to make what you want move without unintentionally making other things move as well. 

If you zoom in and try it you won't even be able to see what was marked until you zoom out because the brush does not match up with your finger 

Until they update their app to make the brush match with where you touch don't get this app. It's unusable. It should really be pulled from the App Store they're stealing from people

### 1/5 — Отвратительное приложение

*2021-01-19*

Вообще ничего не работает

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your $

*2020-07-21, version 1.1.1*

The tool doesn’t line up with where you’re drawing so you can never get an accurate effect. Don’t waste your money!

### 5/5 — Immer noch gut.🍎

*2020-06-18, version 1.1.1*

Die App funktioniert noch auf mein iPad Pro immer noch einwandfrei. Bin zufrieden damit.👍

### 1/5 — Miserabel

*2019-12-06, version 1.1.1*

Ich wollte Fotos animieren und nicht Videos oder GIFs.Schade um das Geld.
