Waste of money

### 1/5 — misinformed

*2022-04-19*

..this app is NOT for cropping videos.. found this out too late!!.. now deciding on a REFUND

**Developer response:** It's not for videos. The "Photo & Video" is the name of Category in App Store that includes all photography Apps. — [Sorry for your inconvenience. You can find the refund option (as a Link) in your purchase receipt email from Apple.]

### 1/5 — Misleading

*2019-05-08*

This doesn’t really crop an image, it only adds a border that makes it appear to be cropped

**Developer response:** It really crops, if you choose "Transparent PNG" option when saving the photo. Please read the App Description completely.

### 1/5 — Not for video

*2019-05-03*

In the title write for photo & video. This is wrong, this app only fir photo. Please my money back.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2016-11-27, version 1.0*

Leavse a square white border surrounding the circle shape so not a true circle pic. Misleading and waste of money.

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2020-10-31*

I bought this so I can have a transparent background. However, you have to have a solid color around it.  Such a joke.

**Developer response:** Your review is incorrect. You must choose the "Transparent PNG" option while saving the photo. You can visually check the output photo — (try to slowly close the photo with two fingers). Please read the App Description completely.

Also, you can check the transparency of output photo by googling for “ONLINE PHOTO EDITOR”

### 2/5 — Question

*2020-05-19*

I just bought this believing that it can crop videos. Although right now can only crop photos. Does this app allow you to crop videos?

**Developer response:** It's not for videos. The "Photo & Video" is the name of Category in App Store that includes all photography Apps.— [Dear Brandon: Sorry for your inconvenience. You can find the refund option (as a Link) in your purchase receipt email from Apple.]

### 3/5 — Circle Crop

*2023-06-13*

After saving the file in Transparent PNG There should just be a circle so that it can be superimposed but there is a distracting shade in a square format. It’s completely unusable

**Developer response:** Please read the App Description completely.

The output is a standard transparent PNG file.
You can check it in some online photo editor web sites.
or by other methods written in description of the app in App Store.

More details:
What you mentioned is a visual behavior of photos app in the current version of iOS.
or maybe you are using a photo editing app with no support of transparency.

### 5/5 — Does exactly what is says

*2023-11-30*

To the developer, I’m sorry ignorant people are ruining your ratings, you did a great job on this.

### 5/5 — It’s Excellent if you want to crop circles from images 🙂

*2023-06-22, version 1.3*

I can’t believe anyone has given this a bad review.
If you want to crop an image as a circle it does the job really well.
Well done!

### 5/5 — Wow how nice to get something that works perfectly

*2023-02-09*

This is exactly what I needed I needed to put little pictures of the individuals that contributed certain items. Thus making it possible to have a collection of contributions with a small picture of the contributor next to each one. Thank you it’s been a great help.

### 5/5 — Does exactly what it says it does

*2021-03-26*

I’m very pleased...the app does exactly what it says it does...

The only thing I don’t get is why there’s no mini help link or link to a support site❓
I.E. - To tell us what the different save options are for...

**Developer response:** Thanks for your purchase and review.

There is an “App Support” Link in this App Store page.
You can find support email of the App.

Save options:
> JPG (small file / negligible noises)
> PNG (bigger file / best quality)
> Transparent PNG (mostly for web page icons)

For technical information, google for “JPG vs PNG”.

### 5/5 — Exactly What I Wanted

*2019-09-24*

This app is awesome. Exactly what I was looking for. I never write reviews. I think this is my first and the developer deserves the 5 stars. This app is very intuitive, clean, and easy to use. I was able to get an output that I liked within a minute of opening. No frustrations. No confusion. No annoying pop-ups. These are all problems I’ve had from a multitude of other photo editing apps I’ve tried. Not this one. It is so refreshing to just be able to get what I need quickly without any headache. Thank you developer. Please don’t change a thing!

### 5/5 — So useful

*2019-04-20, version 1.3*

Very easy to use app, where you can either have a white round frame or a transparent round frame. 

The previous review nearly stopped me from buying this App, but after having tried it, I can confirm that the review is in deed incorrect and that it is in fact possible to have a transparent round frame.

### 5/5 — Great app, crops to a circle!

*2018-01-23*

If you are looking for a simple app to crop your photos to a circle app, this one does it perfectly. Oddly enough, Photoshop and most other apps won’t do this.

### 5/5 — A nice surprise.

*2016-03-01*

A brilliant little app with lots of handy options. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Really like it...

*2016-01-29*

This is what I've been looking for.. but.... it would be nice if you could add a background photo from your camera roll instead of using the solid colors...  I would recommend this app to others..

**Developer response:** A "background photo" does not always give a pretty result — and is not compatible with concept of this App.  However, such option is available in our another app, named "LINE EFFECTS" which creates circular and non-circular artworks.
