Waste of money

Do you pay the yearly subscription but to use the good features you have to buy credit I can use snapseed for free canceled my subscription.

Quick good editor

App is easy to utilize, good presets

So far not so good

App times out. Not easy to mix short videos and pictures together. Can’t edit selection during media selection process. Cannot reuse same video clip and edit different sections of it to combine for one reel.

Great app finally good filters

Normally, I would ignore ads for apps on IG but I decided to try this out during the free trial and I don’t regret it. This app is very good, the filters are very nice and the captures a lot of moods that are great for your aesthetic. There is something for every style. I love how they always update the app too. The paid version is the best so if you want to try it, I recommend it. It’s great for people that just like a lot of looks, and those who content relays on an atmosphere or a certain look or variety of looks. The interface is easy to use, good customer service so far and I love how they let you customize the filters on the app. The face filters are okay but that’s the only area maybe I would tweak but for me it doesn’t ruin the app since I use the other filters. I like Prequel but I found ESTI more user friendly and I use it all the time and it’s one of my core apps. I recommend it.

This app is a joke

Downloaded for the G7x effect and it completely butchered my photo. Tried a flash filter and it made me look like a ghost. Completely normal photo btw. Don’t recommend

could be good

I like the look of the filters they have but it is simply too expensive and almost nothing is available for free. On top of that, it is incapable of downloading your pictures from icloud within the app like almost every other photo editor i’ve ever used. If i want to use a photo which is stored in iCloud(almost everything in my camera roll as a photo hoarder), i have to go to my camera roll and wait for it to download before it can be used. I’ll stick with snow 🤷‍♀️ much better value even if it lacks some of the admittedly innovative features this app has

Very easy and straightforward

I’d recommend to beginners too bad it’s not free

Que es esto??

Se tiene que pagar para usar los filtros, o no se si es de otra forma pero a mi me aparece para pagar!.

Changes for the worse

Why would you remove the ability to adjust the AI filters? More money for less customization.

Desaströs

Erstmal wollte ich die Testversion ausprobieren, jedoch musste man dafür einen Button aktivieren. Als ich das tat rutschte dieser wieder zurück als off, was ich nicht sah, weshalb mir dann 6,99 Euro abgebucht wurden, obwohl ich diese App erst einmal ansehen und testen wollte. Außerdem hat man nur eine Anzahl an Coins zu Verwendung für gewisse Filter, möchte man mehr und diese somit nutzen, muss man NOCHMAL extra bezahlen. Die Frechheit, wenn man eh schon 7 Euro ausgegeben hat für eine monatliche Nutzung. Mein Geld ist nun weg. Für überwiegend schlechte Filter… wirklich ärgerlich!

The worst

The worst, pay for everything

Weird glitch but love the app

Love the application, use it primarily. I was filtering a series of photos earlier and suddenly three different unknown men appeared in three separate photos?! Has to be some wild glitch.

Huge paywall

Nice filters but only 7 out of 69 are completely free!!

Scam trial

Says free trial for one week and they charge you 40 dollars after 48 hrs of initiation of the trail. Not ethical, don’t recommend

Me

I love this app! It gives me every filter I want to use on certain photos

So expensive

After paying $60 for yearly subscription now they have decided to ask for more money if you want to use Ai filters in the latest update. Seriously annoying and I’d rather have my money back.

Love it

Charging for a feature that was previously free

The app has some great features but are not charging (through “credits” for a feature that was originally free). I purchased this app to use one of the previously free features and now that I’m being charged through credits is a scam.

Deceptive pricing! Beware! Zero stars. Cancelled subscription. Other apps are much better.

Update: I emailed the developer and they gave zero resolution to the problem and I cancelled my subscription. There are many more apps that do a much better job without this outrageous deceptive pricing. Such as, BgMaster, Colorize, ReShoot, Yore, AI Photo. Stay away from this app. They said they needed a mental health day and now they’re back..,that’s because everyone is furious they got ripped off and they’re posting terrible reviews about this app. I purchased a one year subscription on June 12, 2026 and was able to use all features including the AI camera features with zero restrictions and zero up charges. Now all of a sudden I cannot use any AI camera features and the app is telling me I am out of “credits”. Under no circumstances were credits ever required or when I made my subscription purchase, nor was it indicated that credits would be an additional required purchase at a later date. I will be canceling my subscription and writing a review telling people this app has deceptive pricing.
