I’m unable to access all the features as the user guide will not scroll on my iPad Air with OS17. The creator’s website is unavailable so I suspect this app hasn’t been updated probably for years - but it’s great as far as it goes and I use it a lot. ### 5/5 — working great again on iphone 15 ! *2023-11-02, version 1.9* always loved the unique looks this app creates and it seems stable again on modern iphone all these years later! ### 5/5 — Love this app *2023-08-10, version 1.9* My favorite… it’s the only one I use!!! ### 5/5 — Pleasantly Surprised *2023-08-06, version 1.9* Works great for helping me visualize a painting concept from a drawing or sketch I’ve done, or by converting a normal photo from my camera roll. Good job guys keep up the great work! ### 4/5 — I love messing with Glaze *2023-08-05, version 1.9* However be careful if you are going to print because hard copy prints often fall short of what you see on the screen ### 5/5 — Great App *2023-08-02, version 1.9* Works Incredibly on my Mac! ### 5/5 — What an amazing app *2023-07-14, version 1.9* I love taking pictures and converting them into art finish and this app works so beautifully. Definitely recommend!!! ### 5/5 — Amazing photo artistic App ! *2023-06-30* It’s the best out there for digital artwork with photos, I definitely love this one… but I hear it needs to be upgraded to work properly, so please as one customer rated “come back to me” ! Thanks so much for this app… and hopefully the improvements will happen soon ! and please don’t ever go away from the App Store… you’re really the best app out there, besides a very few apps, even then, they don’t have your quality for digital’s ! Thanks again, Lucia ### 5/5 — Good *2023-05-20, version 1.9* 100% Good ### 3/5 — No support -what a shame *2023-04-28, version 1.9* This was such a cool app. Used it all of the time. Suddenly the icon became a black box and the Dev’s web site vanished. I guess the old saying is true; nothing good lasts forever. ### 5/5 — Great fun! *2023-04-10, version 1.9* A good selection of styles, brushes, and mediums even in the free version! Perfect inspiration and great fun for the creative soul within you. The developers deserve a huge thank: Thank you! ### 5/5 — Texture galore *2023-01-27, version 1.9* I love the thick textures this app gives your work! ### 5/5 — Please update *2023-01-21, version 1.9* We love you Please come back soon ### 4/5 — Great app...but.. *2022-11-10, version 1.9* This app is in desperate need of an update. I loved it many years ago, and still like using it, but without an update it is clear it won't be around in the future. ### 5/5 — Wow *2022-11-06* This is the best app I’ve ever had, I literally purchased all the packs. Please update more often, you guys have a diamond right here, don’t let it go to waste. Would gladly purchase more to support and I’m pretty sure others would too! ### 4/5 — Totally! But needs 2022 update… *2022-10-15, version 1.9* I totally enjoy this app and I completely agree with others that an update would be nice. Could I help make that happen? Please? ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — А где рисовать? *2026-04-10* а где рисовать? ### 1/5 — Фу *2025-12-30* Приложение позор, ужас! Ничего не понятно, так ещё и трудно!

It also just doesn’t work that good and it takes up a lot of space ### 1/5 — Too hard *2022-10-18, version 1.9* I found this app expecting to be able to paint but all you are doing is showing a different image and selecting a shape.horrible ### 1/5 — App has bug *2021-12-22, version 1.9* Please fix bug, the app won’t allow me to save any digital art ### 1/5 — Remove this App from the Store!!!! *2020-07-30, version 1.9* Time to purge the store from these App that have never been updated for more than 5 years!!!

What’s the point of the app if I can’t save my work?? ### 1/5 — Closed *2020-03-14, version 1.9* Developer website gone ### 1/5 — Cannot save since I bought it! *2020-01-14, version 1.9* Darn it! I used the free version and I liked it but since I bought the upgrade for transparency , I get that message error that I cannot save my images anymore.
