As soon as you open the app, it uses double tap on the side button to automatically subscribe you to monthly plan. Since you are downloading the app usually double tapping on the side button triggers the download. So you are easily fooled by this behavior. Other apps have a more clear subscription page with terms and conditions etc. After this when you are in the app, there is no freaking was to cancel the subscription. Which means if you did not notice what you double tapped on, you are done. Monthly $7.99 will go from your wallet without you even knowing you are paying for it. This is the worst user experience and a scammer style approach. I would stay away and report this. ### 4/5 — Good effects, now needs new features *2025-08-31, version 3.3.2* This can do the kaleido effect and makes it easy. Well done, good interface etc. But some new features would be nice. Being able to record your touch movements or at least set some motion parameters and export that as a video would be great. ### 5/5 — Go-to prism effects app *2025-02-18, version 3.3.1* So many ways you can edit the crystal effects. Love that you can move the prism effects around just by touching and pinching the screen. Super simple and always gets me in an editing trance. ### 1/5 — I bought this app and you want me to give you more money *2025-01-29, version 3.3.1* I bought this app years ago and seeing that majority of the filters are locked out for buy this app again for $80 is ridiculous ### 5/5 — Muy buena app, aunque… *2024-12-27* la aplicación está muy bien, y mejora en su versión premium, pero peca de opciones como poder editar multiples fotos a la vez o guardar tus propias configuraciones por si te gusta tener unas foto con el mismo edit para tu perfil en instagram ### 5/5 — Flabbergasted *2024-10-23, version 3.3.1* Amazing ### 5/5 — fantastico *2024-07-29, version 3.3.1* magnificent ### 1/5 — Fraud! *2024-07-14, version 3.3.1* This app is a fraud! When I downloaded this they said that I have a 7 day trial subscription and I can cancel my subscription a day before the trial ends and won’t charge me but it was a lie coz they charged me right after downloading the app! The worse is this app doesn’t even work! ### 5/5 — Awesome *2024-07-01, version 3.3.1* 10/10 would recommend ### 5/5 — Cristaliq *2024-06-30, version 3.3.1* Good job ## Frequently asked questions about Crystaliq ### What does Crystaliq do?
