App crashing

I just downloaded the app and it’s not getting past the intro video. It keeps resetting to the beginning and the app functions are not available.

Response from developer

Hey there! We're sorry to hear about your app crashing during the intro video. Let's take a look at the steps you can try to fix this: 1. **Update your app and iOS:** Make sure you're using the latest version of Hipstamatic and the latest iOS. Sometimes, bugs are fixed in new versions. Try restarting your phone after updating. 2. **Check your storage:** We recommend having at least 2GB of free storage on your device. Insufficient storage can cause apps to crash. If these steps don't work, we recommend creating a crash log by going to **Settings** > **General** > **About** > **Crash Log**. This log can help us diagnose the issue and provide further assistance. Thanks for reaching out, and we're here to help! Let us know if you have any other questions. --- The Hipstamatic Team If you're still stuck, email us at support@hipstamaticapp.com — we're happy to dig in with you directly.

Nonfunction

This is been for years, one of my favorite camera app, but for some reason a couple of months ago it’s not working and you cannot see across this camera. You only see black or dark and it’s not taking many pictures.

Lost its way

Tried Hipstamatic again after a long hiatus. Of course, it’s now a subscription App, which is unfortunate. Especially after previously spending money on packs and add-ons. NOW I also have to subscribe? No thanks. App also used to be much simpler, more about creativity. Now it’s much more bloated and confusing & feels like it’s trying to be its own social media platform rather than the creative photography App it started life as. Very disappointing.

Sudden full of glitches

I’ve used this app since it came out but suddenly it’s having awful glitches and won’t let me download any of my purchased paks.

Response from developer

Hey there, we're sorry to hear you've been encountering glitches with your Hipstamatic app. We've seen this issue with some users recently, and it seems to be tied to the gear catalog import. Could you please try importing your gear again? You can do this by opening the Classic Camera app, going to the Gear Library, and restoring your purchases. Once your gear is restored in Classic Camera, you can open the Hipstamatic app and your gear should appear in the Gear Library. If this doesn't work, please let us know and we'll do our best to help. If you're still stuck, email us at support@hipstamaticapp.com — we're happy to dig in with you directly.

PLEASE FIX!!!

I love this app and just resubscribed but it’s not allowing me to change my profile photo. It keeps crashing over and over again. Please fix this. I’ll change my rating to 5 stars once fixed. Thank you!! ❤️🙏

What in the dumpster fire

Happened to this app? This update is TRASH. The camera bag is absolutely useless, you can’t find anything without having to scroll a ridiculous amount, and even then you’re lucky if you find what you’re looking for.

I’ve been using this app since the original, and these are some of the worst updates. These aren’t improvements.

FORCED TO SUBSCRIBE

I had the previous Hipstamatic, Classic account before they went to subscription based service. When they went to subscription based service, I lost all my purchases, all the money invest invested into all the film, flashes, packs, all gone. Contacted and reached out to Hipstamatic by email 300 times, did not hear one response back. Subscription based is the future, picking your pocket monthly. I’m not hating on it, you just gotta flow with what it is.

A Creative and Vibrant App and Community

This app has been so much fun to use and the community that participates within the app is creative vibrant and beautiful. That app now truly represents the community.

The recent updates have brought out the best the app has to offer and has streamlined the vast features offered.

While the joys and struggles within the previous versions everyone should enjoy the latest developments and features

Peace

Just say no to subscriptions only!

So sick of apps going subscription only! I’ll stick with the original Hipstamatic app.

This is the best photo app I’ve ever used

This is without a doubt the best photo app I’ve used, ever.

Best game ever

It’s perfect for taking pictures probably better than the regular camera it works so great probably one of the best apps

I’m done

Sorry people, but the redesign made an already buggy and clumsy app worse. Scrolling through community photos, it suddenly glitched back to the top of the feed, losing my place. The new editor adds steps to editing. And the camera itself, which needs the most attention, still stinks. I was on the fence with canceling my subscription, but now I have no doubt. Will miss it, some of it.

Nothing more frustrating than the app crashing when editing with darkroom

This update is faulty, feel like I don't want to return to it to edit a photo.

🤑

I was a huge fan of Hipstamatic since day one. I supported their efforts with buying most of the lenses and films throughout the last 15 years, even some of the ones that appeared redundant and some that turned out as lame as I thought they might. It was too much really, and became a convoluted mess to sort through with too many options. I will never pay a subscription fee for a camera app on my phone, so this version gets an automatic delete. No more subscriptions, for anything.

best ever app

j’utilise Hipstamatic depuis le début et je m’y remets quotidiennement avec cette mise à jour attendue . Top ! merci .
une vrai app créative

Response from developer

Merci beaucoup pour votre retour d'information ! Nous avons bien noté votre demande. - L'équipe Hipstamatic

Bait and switch.

App says it’s free and then after giving it the permissions it needs to be used it then informs you that you have to pay a subscription to use the app. They’ll give you a 24hr pass and then after that they expect you to pay. More and more apps are starting to do this and it’s getting really old. Just like every other app that does this I immediately deleted it and will never use it again.

I’m done with Hipstamatic

I have been using Hipstamatic for years. When I changed to my most recent phone I somehow lost a lot of my film and lenses I have purchased over the years. Basically when I go to download it asks me to pay… again. I have contacted them multiple times about this. I have done what they asked and nothing happened. I am tired of trying to get their attention so it is time I move on. But it sucks because I really loved using it. If I could give zero stars I would. Highly disappointed in you and your lack of proper help.

Thanks!

It’s been fun using the app again.
