### 2/5 — Downward Spiral

*2026-08-14, version 2.7.0*

I really love this app but I can no longer latch to video without it crashing. Also the lack of ability to select parts and pieces to modify filters is limited to a wildcard luck of the draw is getting boring. What’s the next step? I guess I just wanted to write this to say, cool app, now Please Help me want to continue paying for a premium subscription.

### 2/5 — Good but...

*2026-05-18, version 2.7.0*

It would be great if i could hide the premium filters from the list when I swipe to choose filters.
I have already paid for the app, I cannot justify the subscription option at all, why not make add on packs?? where i can keep the filters i like. 
Might be more profitable to you as a whole,maybe,but doesn’t add any value to me.
I wish I have read a review that advises not to update the app.

Good glitch fx app overall


New comment 18 05 2026 
the app is crashing constantly specifically when selecting Plasma and a few more. Still cannot understand the subscription fee when I  have paid for this, add ons and sub for some
of the new features ?

### 3/5 — Great but crashes

*2026-03-30, version 2.6.1*

I love the effects and filters in this app, but quite a few of them make my app crash out, which is annoying because I really want to use the filters in it because they are really cool and original, but unfortunately they keep making my app crash.

### 4/5 — 消しゴム機能があれば完璧

*2026-02-16, version 2.6.1*

エフェクトを消したい部分だけ消せる機能があれば完璧！

### 4/5 — Love this app

*2026-02-15, version 2.6.1*

I use this daily. So many cool filters. Wish I could pick which one to combine

### 1/5 — Subscription is down

*2026-02-10, version 2.6.1*

Hey can you please fix the subscriptions? This is killing me. I use this app for work.

### 2/5 — Premium doesn't work

*2026-02-08, version 2.6.1*

It was cool and I was subscribed but... Can't connect to server now or something. Oh well it was nice while I had it.

### 3/5 — Normally I love, buuuuutt…

*2026-01-27, version 2.6.1*

I use Hyperspektiv as one of two main apps for all of my art pieces, however I let my subscription lapse due to financial difficulties. Upon trying to go back in a re-subscribe, I’m met with a completely broken subscription menu. I’ve even tried to delete the app and re-install, and I tried the obvious “turn it off and back on again” approach. The bug fix note says this was supposed to have been fixed with the last patch, but clearly not, unless it’s the same bug but rearing its head in a new and different way. I’m on an iPhone 17PM running iOS 26.3 beta 2, maybe beta 3 (I forget which we’re on atm). If it’s due to it being because on a beta firmware, that’s fine, I can wait… but I figured it would still work as the subscription code hasn’t changed in the last few iOS updates that I’m aware of.

### 3/5 — Love this app at first glance but very buggy

*2026-01-25, version 2.6.1*

Locked out of ability to subscribe- "network connection" error. If trying restore in-app purchases it just crashes. Doesn't work from settings page either. Please fix, this is an incredible app that deserves usability. Will update my review to a 5 once I can use it!

### 4/5 — used for years

*2025-12-26, version 2.6.1*

i always find myself redownloading this app. it's not super useful for specific editing but it can do some cool things.

### 1/5 — Same problem everyone is all of a sudden having

*2025-12-21, version 2.6.1*

Keeping it simple. Paid subscriber. Screen now goes blank when I try to open photos. That’s it.

### 1/5 — PLEASE FIX

*2025-12-21, version 2.6.1*

I used to enjoy this app for ages until it quit working, i have tried numerous times to reinstall but i just get a black screen

### 4/5 — iOS 26.1 bug

*2025-12-09, version 2.6.1*

Enjoyed the app before updating to iOS 26.1. Right after the update (and the app’s re-install) it started to go all-black when trying to to open Pictures library. Hope y’folks will ox that soon

### 2/5 — Force Closes

*2025-11-30, version 2.6.1*

Used to be so great. Not good.. GREAT. Never had any problems whatsoever. Recently will force close on choices that did not force close before. VERY DISAPPOINTING. Have been using the app to provide media support for music celebs. Now they won't touch me if I'm using Hyperspectiv. Losing money. Losing credibility.

### 2/5 — Increasingly Buggy

*2025-11-20*

I love this app. BUT, in the last year or so it’s gotten increasingly buggy. Now it freezes/goes black when I try to access my library to edit photos. So it’s increasingly unusable. There’s not even a function for reporting issues — clicking the “help” button doesn’t work! It’s a shame because I had such a blast using this for the first several years it was out, but I can’t justify the subscription anymore with how unkept the app is getting. 

Fingers crossed it gets fixed up and I can revisit this review. When it works well, it’s absolutely sick, a ton of fun to experiment and play with. But… that’s when it works well.

### 1/5 — Не сохраняет видео

*2025-10-05*

Сперва было все хорошо, но уже месяц не сохраняет видео. Просто черный экран

### 1/5 — Unable to add effects to MY OWN gallery

*2026-06-07, version 2.7.0*

Was considering purchasing if I can add effects to images and videos in MY MEDIA, but when I go to import a pic/vid, I only get a permanent black screen with some tiny little green dot on the top right corner, then I have to close and reopen the app. Good thing they offer free full access for 7 days before payments begin cause the full version is still useless. Cool app but if I could only use ONLY FOR video I record right there, I'll pass.

### 1/5 — PLEASE FIX

*2026-06-03, version 2.7.0*

I used to enjoy this app for ages until it quit working, i have tried numerous times to reinstall but i just get a black screen - i can't access my photos even though I've given permission - updates don't seem to help

*2026-03-24, version 2.6.1*

### 1/5 — So  Bummed!

*2026-03-19, version 2.6.1*

After a recent Apple update I can no longer use this great app. It was one of my most used and I had mad a ton of super cool presets with it too. I’ve paying and using it for 4/5 yrs. Anyway to get it back working again! Glitch Studio and Hyperspektiv are the 2 best glitch apps. So bummed!

### 1/5 — another proponent of the subscripocalypse

*2026-02-25, version 2.6.1*

why does everyone think it's okay to be greedy? so ignorant and oblivious.

### 1/5 — Abandoned?

*2026-02-22, version 2.6.1*

Hadn’t used this since updating iOS, video exports now come back blank, and the subscription option doesn’t seem to be in operation, can only assume this has been abandoned?

### 1/5 — My premium subscription

*2026-02-13, version 2.6.1*

My paid till February 27th has not worked for weeks !! It will not go to full screen it will not access photos or work on direct images and then continually goes black and crashes !! I will not be renewing!!!

### 1/5 — Please Fix it!

*2026-02-10, version 2.6.1*

### 5/5 — Upgrade not working

*2026-02-11, version 2.6.1*

I love the app but trying to upgrade to get all the effects but it won’t let me. App crashes when I press button to pay for additional effects. Please fix the app when possible.

### 5/5 — C’era una volta..

*2025-09-02, version 2.6.1*

C’era una volta una stupenda app, splendidi effetti originali, 
Nonostante stia  pagando l’abbonamento annuale da diversi anni,è arrivato adesso l’aggiornamento di questi giorni e mi è stata bloccato l’uso dell’app…Tra l’altro, la cifra richiesta per un anno è inferiore a quella che sto pagando attualmente.
Per favore, signori sviluppatori, correggete l’errore di questa versione, e fatemi usare ciò che ho pagato, grazie!
Aggiornamento:  i signori sviluppatori hanno risistemato le cose. Grazie!
