### 4/5 — Amazing app but!???

*2023-04-12, version 10.0.1*

Dear developers, I have to say I found a great retro photography app in April 2023.. I love the different film rolls & lenses you can use to get amazing results. I love the black & white film to get stunning results. However there is only one the thing that stops it been a 5 star app! I paid the 99p to get the extra lenses and no adds. Brill I thought but the app crashes! It is useable but frustrating when it crashes. Please fix someone please….

### 4/5 — Bring Back Autosampler

*2022-06-14, version 10.0.1*

Love this app although it hasn’t been updated in a long time. The developer made another app called AutoSampler which was phenomenal and now gone from the app store. Please Please Please bring it back.

### 5/5 — Fun photography

*2020-12-28, version 10.0.1*

My all-around camera app is Camera+ 2 and ClassToy is my fun app. I paid the 99¢ for the upgrade and have lots of lenses and film types to explore. It puts a toy in the hands of my inner child.

### 1/5 — I got scammed

I upgraded the app for the other filters and they are no where to be found - exited and re-opened the app several times. lmao

### 4/5 — Still working!

*2019-11-03, version 10.0.1*

I bought it ages ago. If I’m not wrong I was still using my 3GS. 
There are many photo apps which are better,  (I’m a massive user of Hipstamatic) but this one is easy and nice. Nothing special, but simple and cute. Love it! And I’m so affectionated to it ❤️

Sometimes a crash occurs, but it’s usable.

### 1/5 — Keep on crashing!

*2019-09-17, version 10.0.1*

Hoping it will be fix!

### 1/5 — Please. Please fix the app.

*2018-10-15, version 10.0.1*

Please please please please please please fix the app. It’s been years!!!!! Please. Your only son. Mabruk. Cheers.

### 4/5 — molto bella ma crash continui

*2018-10-07, version 10.0.1*

divertente e funzionale, ma con continui crash se aggiustasse la versione darei 5 stelle!
