### 4/5 — 広告視聴でコインを稼ぎたい

*2024-08-29*

流石にお金かかりすぎだと思う。せめて、広告視聴でコインがたまるシステムにして欲しい。

### 3/5 — Face ID? 🤷‍♂️

*2021-06-27, version 1.9.1*

This app is advertised with face id. It doesn’t have it. Only touch id which, well, phones haven’t had that for 3 years.

### 4/5 — App works well

*2021-01-16, version 1.9.1*

It took so long for us to wait for the update, but finally....three years

### 2/5 — 동영상 플레이가 안돼요. I cant play my videos in hardcover!

*2020-11-15, version 1.8.1*

사진첩에서 가져온 영상 플레이가 안돼네요.
As you know. I cant play my videos I brought from ios gallary. why not you fix it??

### 2/5 — ios 14

*2020-09-23, version 1.8.1*

The video isn't played.

### 2/5 — What No Sound ?

*2019-06-11, version 1.8.1*

As per previous review from 1 year ago, there is no sound from uploaded videos. 
Happy to amend my rating if you fix this.

### 4/5 — 无法导出

*2019-05-21*

没有办法把图片导出到系统相册，怎么回事？点那个按钮完全没有任何反应，下载、分享等按钮弹不出来。只有导入还是正常的。

### 4/5 — 좋아요

*2019-04-21*

저는 원래 앨범이랑 아예 분리된 이 어플이 더 사용하기 편해서 꾸준히 쓰고 있어요 사진 순서 마음대로 바꿀 수 있었으면 좋겠어요 그게 좀 불편해요

### 4/5 — 사진첩 불러오기

*2019-01-15*

저.. 잘쓰고있었는데 오랜만에 들어가서 사진추가를좀 하고싶은데 사진첩불러오기를 누르면 자꾸 배경화면으로 튕깁니다 ㅠㅠㅠ 어떻게 해야해요??

### 1/5 — DO NOT BUY - IT IS A SCAM

*2018-06-17, version 1.8.1*

Requires purchase of coins to unlock features but it just takes your money and you don’t get the coins or the features. 

Developer is nowhere to be found. 

Thank you, Crapple, for making the App Store the Crap Store by letting skeazy devs shakedown your customers.

### 1/5 — pro version!!!!

*2018-06-14, version 1.8.1*

where is the pro version?!!!!

### 4/5 — 복잡한 비밀번호 넣을 수 있게 해주세요.

*2018-05-26*

지문으로 하기는 하지만 4자리 숫자 비밀번호는 노출되기도 쉽고 해킹도 쉬우니 복잡한 비밀번호 넣을 수 있게 해주세요.

### 1/5 — 하드커버

*2020-11-29*

그동안 잘 썼는데  얼마전부터 여기 보관했던 동영상들이 모두 먹통이 됐어요   
중요한거 다 넣어놨는데  어찌 재생 할 방법이 없나요?  이게 뭔 일이에요?

### 1/5 — NO STARS

*2019-03-27, version 1.8.1*

Unfortunately I had to give it a star, but if I could have given it zero stars, I would have!! 
None of the features work, total waste of money & time!!

### 1/5 — 이딴 쓰레기가

*2019-03-17*

옮기려면 제대로 옮겨지던가
돈내고 쓰면 중복관리라도 되던가
최강 유로 쓰레기네
최소한 원래대로 사진첩내보내기는 공짜여야하는거아냐???

### 1/5 — 사진이 없어졌어요

*2018-08-22*

원래 앨범이 3개 정도 있었는데 1개만 빼고 없어졌네요. 무슨일이죠? 제 기억에는 지운 적이 없습니다. 오랜만에 사진 보려고 들어갔더니 없어졌네요. 확인해주세요

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2018-07-26, version 1.8.1*

I was so excited to find this app and immediately purchased it to unlock all the features. It says I do not have enough coins to add albums nor when I used the 500 coins that came with the app to purchase the skins for the covers, it unlocked 1! Very upset and disappointed.

### 1/5 — 이동하기-> move  photo  이동 했더니 사진이 다 날아 갔어요

*2018-07-25*

아니 왜 이동을 했는데 사진이 어디로 이동이 된걸까요????!!!!!

### 5/5 — 이전에 휴대폰번호로 사용했던건 못찾나요?

*2020-03-29*

휴대폰기기를 바꾸고 번호도 변경했습니다.
그래서 하드커버를 다시 깔았는데 그 때 제가 번호로 했던것같아서 찾을방법도 없고 소중한사진이 너무 많은데 속상하네요ㅠㅠ예전번호로 계정을 찾을 수 있는 방법이 있다면 제발 부탁드려요

### 5/5 — 아주 좋아요! 폴더별로 정리해서

*2018-05-23*

필요한 정보도 폴더별로 정리되서 너무 좋고 아이폰 쓰면서 사진첩이 제일 불편했는데 그나마 삼* 사진첩과 가장 유사해서 쓰기 편해요~~~

### 5/5 — 영상 가로모드 지원 부탁드려요!!

*2018-03-17*

영상 세로모드 밖에 안되는거랑 약간의 안정성만 개선하면
최고일거 같아요~
