30 dollars a year?!

30 dollars a year for a grain app. Another app that you can’t buy and have to be locked into a subscription model for a feature or two. This is why AI is sadly going to take over.

Subscribed

Love the app but now its saying I have to pay monthly when I was subscribed already. How can this get resolved?

Overpriced

$20 a month is insane for this app. For the $10 a month you can get Lightroom which does way more way better.

Response from developer

Thanks for your feedback. Just to clarify, our app has never been $20/month — the price is significantly lower, plus offers loads of features that are completely free. While Lightroom is a great tool, it doesn’t come close to offering the kind of detailed grain controls our app provides. We built this specifically for people who want more authentic, film-like results. Seeing a one-star review makes us a little sad (okay, maybe a lot sad 😅), but we do appreciate you giving the app a try. Have a wonderful day!

Thanks for the updates

I hope you guys keep working hard to make this beautiful application better. Currently I am planning to use it for the YouTube short videos and hope it works out well. And thanks for the new updates. With Kindest Regards-BR

Good

An amazing app with great effects. It would be even more exciting if batch applying custom presets were possible.
