The filters work and are ok, but the main functionality of the app - to apply the filters to only certain areas of the photo doesn’t work at all. ### 3/5 — Almost there, guys! *2019-07-06, version 4.0.2* Love all your filter effects but can’t fade and fine tune the image. Please fix!!! **Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback! ❤️ We’re always working to improve the app, please take a moment to download and use the newer version of the app. Find us on Instagram @fadeit_app ### 4/5 — Beautiful but disappointing *2018-12-29, version 4.0.0* Perhaps the error is on my part but I am unable to use the depth effect feature, I have a XR which has portrait mode and yet I am unable to use this effect. Is this feature not yet available for this device? Or am I simply missing something? Also filters are stunning!! ### 4/5 — Cool app, some bugs *2018-11-04, version 4.0.0* It's a very cool app and has some nice filters ( some cost money😅) and works find however it sometimes confouses my black hair as a background so when I add a depth filter it makes me look bold as my hair isn't getting any of the depth ### 2/5 — Let us do more *2018-10-04, version 4.0.0* I get it has a simplistic layout and all, but the all the filters are too strong. You can’t change the intensity of it. Only will look good for certain “aesthetic” shots. Good concept thought... **Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback! ❤️ We’re always working to improve the app, please take a moment to download and use the newer version of the app. Find us on Instagram @fadeit_app ### 3/5 — Could Use Improvement *2018-10-03, version 4.0.0* I do like this app. It's nice. It's simple and I think it's pretty user-friendly. However, I wish there were a way to adjust the filters and colors? Like, if you wanted the red to be a little lighter or a filter to be a little faded or something? I've seen a lot of reviews about this and I would really love if you guys would do it! ❤️ ### 2/5 — Meh *2018-09-20, version 4.0.0* I wish there was more realistic filters and that it wouldn’t alternate ur photo so much, truly I am very disappointed with this app ### 1/5 — Más de lo mismo *2018-09-20, version 4.0.0* Solo son efectos básicos, lo que se ve en el video de ejemplo no lo pude hacer ya que solo tiene 3 opciones. No sirve para lo que necesito que es el efecto de profundidad. ### 1/5 — Hmm *2018-09-16, version 3.2.0* I can drag the filter after some hard tries (need to press it hard then can drag) but even with portrait pictures and my phone being iOS11, it applies to the whole picture and not different depths. ### 3/5 — Ummmmmmmmm... *2018-07-23, version 3.2.0* I like the app. BUT when I was going to send a picture to my friends, it said I had to buy the filters. I loved the put come to the pictures but I couldn’t send on save anything without buying anything. If you want a nice picture this is a great app, if you don’t mind buying filters for it. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ugly filters *2020-01-31, version 5.3.0* Non of them looks good on my photos, so disappointing. ### 1/5 — Already purchased *2019-07-20, version 4.1.2* Purchased this app last year & bought all in app purchases. Now it wants me to subscribe to get the watermark removed!! Really not fair as I already spent a lot of money on this app!!!! Not happy!!!! ### 1/5 — Bad *2018-10-29, version 4.0.0* This app does absolutely nothing ### 1/5 — Could be a 5 star app *2018-10-22, version 4.0.0* This app has beautiful filters but the app is SO bare bones you have zero ability to actually edit your photo, you’re just slappin’ a coat of paint on top of your pic and hoping for the best. Total fail for an photo app with so much potential to be a go-to for gorgeous, even artsy creations. Instead, you’re left with a small handful of, albeit a great little collection, colorful filters that you can’t adjust or edit in ANY way. I have a couple breathtaking pics from my trip to the Rocky Mtns that would look amazing with a couple of these filters, if only I could adjust the strength of it. I attempted a couple different pics with landscape and people, and not one single filter was useable because it was 100% strength on top of my pics and completely washed out or overpowered the photo itself. Not to mention how much better it’d be to be able to apply effects to only portions of the photo, apply layered filters, crop, resize — or actually be creative in any way lol. And the icing on the cake is how their is literally no instruction, introduction, info, FAQ, help — zilch. So even if there WERE any of the above features so desperately needed to make this a useable app, good luck trying to figure out how to navigate to or use them lol. All in all it’s a lovely app visually, but worthless. If they made some pretty basic improvements this would be awesome & definitely one I’d use regularly. ### 1/5 — Bad *2018-10-21, version 4.0.0* Your app is dead awful it makes you buy the filters and make your company look like trash I don’t care how bad of a person this review makes me look your product is god awful I thought it was a good app so I got it and it is awful ### 1/5 — Decepcionado *2018-10-18, version 4.0.0* No deja usar los filtros por separado ### 1/5 — Lame *2018-10-05, version 4.0.0* Not much to code from ### 1/5 — Nothing like the video *2018-10-03, version 4.0.0* This app doesn’t really have the depth effect like in the video (or I don’t know how to choose it). Just filters, which i don’t really care about.. ### 1/5 — Обман на видео *2018-09-27, version 4.0.0* Такого делать нельзя. Чтоб отдельно фон изменить. Маркетинговая замануха ### 1/5 — Развод *2018-09-26, version 4.0.0* Это обычный фильтр! Причём не самый лучший! То, что на видео делать нельзя ! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — ماسة الحلوة *2020-08-25, version 5.6.0* #zoomerang ### 5/5 — 👌 *2019-11-29, version 5.2.0* Y can’t plus b free😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 ### 5/5 — Easy to use and good filters *2019-07-26, version 4.1.2* Easy to uses and a nice selection of filters.
