### 1/5 — Used to Be a Favorite App

*2024-05-24*

This is crashing repeatedly and you can’t save photos taken with the app. Very frustrating.

### 5/5 — Beautiful images.

*2023-05-11, version 2.8.0*

Love the fact that the app saves the original image along with the processed one in my gallery. I first downloaded this app about 7 years ago to my iPhone 4G then left the Apple world for Samsung. Always missed this particular app and now well happy that it is still available, be it with a new developer. I hope they continue to fix bugs and add features and if I can request a new feature, I would love to be able to import pictures from my gallery to process in this app. Thanks dev for continuing with it.

### 5/5 — Favorite Photo App

*2023-02-21*

This along with ToyCamera (now discontinued) are my favorite photo apps of all time.

### 5/5 — And oldie but a goodie

*2022-10-11*

My favorite camera app. Works great. Seems the newest patch from Apple fixed crashing issues. Or you guys patched it. Whatever. Thanks for keeping it going.  Pictures and effects are excellent.

### 5/5 — Still one of the best camera apps

*2022-10-10*

Great-looking effects. Glad to see it's still alive and kicking, being updated/maintained, even if only to do the bare minimum to keep it working with the latest iOS versions.

### 1/5 — Bummer

*2022-09-28*

Well… can’t give much of a review of the actual app because it won’t even open. I’ve sent support an email and haven’t received a reply so I’m left leaving this review. Cross Process, what’s the deal?

### 3/5 — Crashing repeatedly.

*2022-09-27*

For the past few weeks, it has simply not opened despite several reinstalls.

### 1/5 — No longer functional with iOS 14.

*2022-09-23*

Great app gives a wonderful retro look to photos, but with the iOS 14 app...it no longer works on my iPhone Xs.

Update 2022:  It worked fine after an update that made it compatible with iOS 14 and 15.  However, iOS 16 has rendered it useless again.  ☹️

### 5/5 — A classic!

*2022-03-18, version 2.7.1*

Came back to this app after many years and remembered how beautiful it renders photos and I love its simplicity. I hope it’s around forever.

### 1/5 — Need to update for iPhone 10

*2020-12-10*

I have loved this app but after I upgraded to the new Apple operating system on my phone, it no longer opens. Help! Is this being addressed??
