Often create my own covers and use the finish function. Also lots of funny titles. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2018-07-17, version 3.0* Don’t download it, waste of time. ### 1/5 — Useless! *2018-03-06, version 3.0* Can’t try any features to see if it’s worth buying! I deleted it. ### 1/5 — Rubish!!!! *2018-03-06, version 3.0* Follow the bad reviews! Even paying for it, it says you can change text but YOU CAN’T I’ll be reporting to app store ### 1/5 — Demand money back. *2017-11-23, version 3.0* This looked fun until I realized it’s not saving any of the covers I created... Refund my money. ### 1/5 — WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY!!!! *2017-09-22, version 3.0* I paid for the pro version of this. I cannot save picture to my camera roll on my phone. What is the point of it. I want my money back!! Save your money folks this app stinks😡😡😡 And it keeps crashing. ### 1/5 — Worst app ever *2017-08-31, version 3.0* Wait what? Why is this app for free when you have to pay for texting on you fake magazine? This doesn't even deserve any stars, if I could rate it 0 I would. Don't waste ur time, this app is a pile of garbage. 👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿 ### 1/5 — This one is lame to use *2017-08-28, version 3.0* Would not recommend ### 1/5 — Doesn't work at all *2017-02-04* When trying to get cover to load it says not online. As if no internet connection. ### 3/5 — Not bad. Not what I'm looking for. *2017-01-16, version 3.0* I would delete it if I could since its not what I'm looking for. However I already made a purchase, so I can't. I just wanted to make a custom title. ### 2/5 — Crashes all the time *2017-01-11, version 2.8* Lots of crashes when I try to save or load a cover I have worked ### 3/5 — Ok *2016-10-27, version 2.8* I found the idea of this app good but it's hard to use. You should be able to see your chosen photos when you are looking for a magazine cover. Also if you resize your photo the magazine back color ends up being white. Needs some work but an OK app ### 1/5 — Invasive ads, app does not function *2016-10-25, version 2.8* Each individual feature is an in app purchase. It can't even do the basics of what it's advertised to do without paying. At that point just have a price on the app for us to purchase. Loud invasive video ads pop up immediately the first time I opened it and I had to watch 30 seconds without being able to exit out before I could even try the app. That was really off putting. ### 2/5 — Don't know :/ *2016-08-18, version 2.6* I don't know yet but I say 🤘 ### 1/5 — Can't change titles *2016-06-03, version 2.6* You can't change the titles even with the paid version, so you're left with unconvincing magazine covers ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time *2026-01-31, version 3.0* This app freezes. You can’t even get it to launch. ### 1/5 — No longer works with ios26 *2025-12-14, version 3.0* It freezes. Sometimes you can load a photo but you can’t pick a magazine template. Takes forever to even load a photo. App just completely freezes. Problem started with iOS 26. ### 1/5 — Crashes *2024-08-21, version 3.0* App crashes anytime I try and save finished photo. ### 1/5 — Not worth it *2020-07-15, version 3.0* When I first opened the app I didn’t know what to click on the starting menu because it does not give any directions Then when I figured it out I tried adding text but YOU HAD TO PAY FOR IT it makes no sense paying for such simple things almost everything you had to pay for DO NOT BUY THIS APP ### 1/5 — Garbage App *2020-06-18, version 3.0* Don’t ever try to install this app. Its useless. Spent a lot of money, it never worked. ### 1/5 — Wasted money *2019-11-24, version 3.0* I just wasted my money. Says you can edit text after purchase but clearly you cannot. Templates are not editable. ### 1/5 — We’re being ripped off *2019-07-06, version 3.0* Choose a magazine cover.......and you CANT CHANGE THE TEXT!!! So what’s it for? You rip off, scum bags. Well done for getting our money. Genius. ### 1/5 — Why Pay?! *2019-05-06, version 3.0* Y do u need 2 pay 2 access everything ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money on the upgrade 😒 *2018-12-24, version 3.0* Garbage app, paid for the upgrade thinking I could replace the pre-added text on the covers with my own, but it won’t let you. It puts your text over the top of theirs. Ridiculous... ### 1/5 — HATE IT SO MUCH UGH *2018-10-11, version 3.0* This app is awful! It says you can make your own cover, but you can only add a picture! And you have to PAY to TYPE. Like what the heck? SO BAD! Don’t waste your money on this app. 😡😡😡😡👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Fun app *2022-01-26, version 3.0* Fun to play around with. ### 5/5 — Love it!
