### 3/5 — Good effects but…

*2026-05-24, version 6.0.4*

The app was priced at a very affordable price and they didn’t offer some weird subscription fee everyone does and it’s ridiculous so that is great. I love the variety of effect. However, the effects are way too random to be used unless you have a very well thought creative process and you’re a professional, you will not find use of this app. Wish they added some sort of tutorial or examples of what you can achieve with the app.

### 5/5 — Absolute best

*2025-11-08, version 6.0.4*

Because it is

### 5/5 — I love this app

*2025-04-17, version 6.0.4*

I have had a version of this app ever since my iPhone 5? I’m running it on my iPhone 15. Can anyone tell me with my iPhone 15 it is a 48 megapixel sensor but when I use the camera with the Decim8 app.
Is the image the 448 megapixel or is it downsized and if so, what are the dimensions. The website doesn’t have a section for support or at least it doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — Heartbreaking

*2024-09-21, version 6.0.4*

Wow I’ve had this app for a very very long time. Just migrated to the new phone. ALL MY PRESETS ARE GONE. Years of presets id created and refined. Wiped clean. No support for this app. I think it’s finally dead to me.

### 1/5 — Bring old versions back

*2024-08-04, version 6.0.4*

The old versions created way more interesting results. Not sure what happened but if anyone knows how to go back to like 3.0 version, please let me know.

### 5/5 — One of the best

*2024-04-08, version 6.0.4*

See above ^

### 2/5 — Doesn’t save pictures

*2024-02-21, version 6.0.4*

Doesn’t save pictures, just a black square.
Great effects, but no save function so have to screen grab

### 3/5 — Used to work great

*2024-02-12, version 6.0.4*

I loved using this app as part of my workflow up until a a couple months ago when it stopped saving images. When I save an image now, it’s just black. It’s also started crashing when attempting to save. Totally useless now but it was a fantastic app to use. Rating of 4/5 for when it worked but now it’s a 0/5 as it no longer works. I hope the developer can provide an update.

### 5/5 — Fav app for years

*2024-02-06*

It's been my favorite app for maybe ten years now? I'm a former graphic designer, and I still use it to this day for personal projects. iPad + iPhone 
It allows me to have lots of randomness and stunning dirty textures without any hassle. I wouldn't be able to create without it anymore. In combination with Procreate, I go very, very far. Thank you very much for my secret weapon.
I hope the app will remain available for many more years. ❤️

### 2/5 — 2024 Mostly Just Crashes at this Point

*2024-01-03, version 6.0.4*

When you try to save an image. But pretty cool when it worked.
