### 5/5 — Best app ever!

*2025-10-25, version 6.1*

This app is the best and the pictures come out really nice! Thanks Paul J Adam!

### 1/5 — Can’t save nor send

*2025-02-17, version 5.9*

I can’t save nor send after using, what’s my next option?

### 5/5 — Clara Twum

*2024-05-22, version 5.9*

### 3/5 — It’s Like Buying a Barbie and Being Told Her Clothes Are Sold Separately

*2023-11-07, version 5.9*

When the Barbie fashion figure is sold on TV, they’re careful to mention if certain aspects of what is sold (say, her condo-grade dream house) are sold separately. Does anybody at Apple check these things? The FDA checks Barbie’s shoes to make sure they don’t choke kids and mandates a disclaimer if they are poison to ages below three. The guy in Steve Jobs’ chair should make sure apps are adverted accurately.

As it turns out, this is a new and “improved” version of an app I purchased previously, the “improvements” being that adjustments were sold separately like Barbie gear. The ad said that you could get all the added features for just $1.99 - the ad forgot to say the magic word “each.” Minus one star.

Minus another star for an apparent inability to save to photo roll or the file of your choice. Without a built-in save button that works, I have to MacGyver a save.

At least this isn’t a BOPE (Buy Once Pay Evermore) app where you pay the guy so much a month for the app to work.

### 1/5 — erm what

*2023-08-16, version 5.9*

i wanted to invert the colours on a pic nd i saw that the app allows u to invert colours so i downloaded the app ND BROOOOO its £1.99 ru stupid , i have to pay to invert colours on a pic????😭😭😭

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2021-08-07, version 5.9*

Not even remotely intuitive to use.

### 1/5 — New update just ruined this app

*2021-07-08, version 5.9*

The new update made it so that most of the original options now have to be paid for.

### 2/5 — What was the point

*2021-04-14, version 5.9*

App WAS really good. Filters were just what i needed when editing certain images. Then the devs felt the urge to squeeze more money out of the app, and half the filters are now locked behind a money wall :|

### 1/5 — Promise of a panoply of photo effects

*2021-03-13, version 5.9*

. . . then disappointment of purchase. Color effects are almost non operational. . . because developer didn’t care to make this user friendly. 
Hopes dashed. Time, money wasted. . . did NOT make my day.

### 1/5 — Ruined

*2021-02-13, version 5.9*

Before the update I had many of the filters that are now behind a paywall.
