### 5/5 — Love it

*2020-11-17, version 1.4*

Unique filters, great all

### 5/5 — Honestly, Dalgona hits it out of the park!

*2020-10-24, version 1.4*

Being old enough to remember growing up with disposable cameras and 35mm film, I think I have a solid grasp of what makes a good retro look. I’ve searched forever for this look. Found many apps that come close, or worse, go to far(which is most). But then I happened upon Dalgona, it only has a few filters, not hundreds, because hello there were only a few films we used back then. Not a million variants of Fuji and Kodak. Upon first download I fell in love with the simplicity. Pick your photo, or take one. Next choose your filter. That’s it! No adjusting the light leak, or the grain, or a million other things! It comes how it comes, just like the cameras of old. The results I achieved were amazing. I’d have to say this app comes the closest to replicating the real thing of all the apps I’ve used over the years. I’ve had em all! Huji, Hipstamatic, RNI, and everything in between! This one beats them all. It’s as simple as that. You will not be disappointed with this app! How easy it is to snap a pic, pick a filter and boom your good! And it looks amazing! You literally cannot go wrong here. What are you waiting for? Get this app already. You won’t be sorry. I love this freaking app!!

### 5/5 — Give us more apps!

*2020-05-07, version 1.3*

Give us more apps like these please!

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2019-10-17, version 1.3*

Doesn’t have many choices for filters but they’re really good and look very cute on photos

### 5/5 — Make retro

*2019-01-08, version 1.3*

Photo

### 4/5 — Cool photo editing app

*2018-08-12, version 1.2*

I saw this app mentioned in a photography forum and thought I’d check it out . Filters are pretty cool and intensify your photos in a unique way. Definitely gives your photos a vintage “old school” feel. Only thing , is there’s only 6 filters and I would like the option to take the time stamp off the photos:/ I can see this app taking off as a premier app, if more filters were added along with other cool features, maybe even a sparkle effect ;)

### 5/5 — SUCH A GREAT APP but...

*2018-07-28, version 1.2*

I really love this app but I would like to mention that the creators of the app include adjustable effect for an example the intensity of the 3D fringe and the filter and the textures. Truly it’s a good app

### 5/5 — :)

*2018-06-10, version 1.2*

amazing app! Really need an intensity bar on the filters to adjust them. A video feature would be perfect too.

### 4/5 — More updates

*2018-02-20, version 1.2*

Great app but would love more updates. Perhaps more filters and ability to edit.

### 5/5 — Great

*2018-01-26, version 1.2*

First I was disappointed about only 5 options but now I love this app!!!
