### 1/5 — Awful

*2020-11-30, version 4.0.3*

So bad, doesn’t work, dont waste your time

### 1/5 — Dreadful

*2019-05-03, version 4.0.3*

Dreadful

### 3/5 — App is working against itself?!

*2019-03-25, version 4.0.3*

I downloaded this app, but whenever I put photos through it they come out much more pixelated than they originally were!!!! When this first happened I was outraged! Disappointed!!!!

### 1/5 — Can’t save.

*2019-03-20, version 4.0.3*

Easy to pixelate what you, but can’t save what you’ve done. What’s the point?

### 1/5 — NO OPTION TO SAVE!

*2019-02-15, version 4.0.3*

Broken app with no save option! Worthless!

### 1/5 — Absolutely Terrible

*2019-02-05, version 4.0.3*

You obviously never tried to use the app after designing it. Absolute trash

### 3/5 — MOVE YOUR AD PLACEMENT

*2019-01-18, version 4.0.3*

The app itself is easy to use and does exactly what I want it to but like with others I can not confirm changes because the ad overlay is directly over the confirm button. I tried finding a way to turn off apps move it etc and couldn’t find it. Sadly ended up having to remove app and look for another.

### 1/5 — Can’t save the photo.... pointless

*2018-10-15, version 4.0.3*

Great way to edit... too bad you can’t save the photo because the confirm (save) button is covered by ads. Then when you remove the ad it just has a sign saying “ad removed by google”. Tried a bunch of times to no avail. Don’t download this until they fix it.

### 1/5 — Do not buy!!!

*2018-07-11, version 4.0.3*

It is sooo glitchy and is not very useful. It over pixelates things and is just straight up annoying. Not worth it.

### 1/5 — DO NOT DOWNLOAD! WASTE OF YOUR TIME!

*2018-07-02, version 4.0.3*

I was so excited with this app. It was so easy to pixelate and even gave you the option to blur as well. I went to save my finished product and there was no button for it. I tried the ‘x’ and it deleted it. I went back, it got deleted as well. There is no way to save it. It looks like maybe the button is under the add and I believe it’s on purpose. Apps make money splash through ad revenue and in-app purchases. I think it’s a scam to make us keep trying to save it over and over thinking it’s a glitch, when really they are getting paid everytime we accidentally click the ad. For what though? I don’t know. We just want to edit out pictures 😐😐😐
