### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2023-03-04*

Pay for the app and it does not work for more than 80% of the time, keeps crashing and the photo quality is pathetic!!

### 1/5 — Wont even open

*2022-08-17, version 4.0*

The app crashes before I get to even choose a photo. I had the free version and paid for the ads and watermark to be removed in that one; and now the free version or the paid version just crashes.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2020-08-26, version 4.0*

Constantly crashes. I paid for this app and I can’t save to camera roll and the app crashes constantly so I’m not always able to use the app. It better not be a subscription because I’m not paying for this anymore.

### 3/5 — Upgrade Doesn’t Work

*2018-09-20, version 4.0*

I PAID for the upgrade with no ads, why does it all of a sudden start showing me ads again and asking me to upgrade (again)? The app works fine, but if you pay to not see ads you shouldn’t see them ever again. It makes the whole process of using the app SLOW when you have to constantly X out of ads to continue using it. I’m sure there’s something out there that works better.

### 1/5 — Useless. Crashes.

*2018-09-15, version 4.0*

Crashes.

### 1/5 — Don’t buy it doesn’t export the photo!

*2018-08-10, version 4.0*

This app is terrible along with all the other ones that are basically the same I paid 2.99 which I didn’t really mind if it actually worked

### 1/5 — Can’t Save

*2018-08-07*

You can’t save it to your photos?!?
The mind boggles. 

Utterly useless if you can’t save them.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2018-08-04, version 4.0*

Keeps crashing.... this app is a waste of your time and money,    I’ve spent the past hour trying to reload over and over and this app keeps crashing, dosn’t work look for something better

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on IPhone 7 Plus

*2018-08-02, version 4.0*

Downloaded the paid app and all it does is shut down after I choose a photo.

### 1/5 — Poor Performance

*2018-06-11*

This app crashes constantly and keeps asking me to pay to remove adds even though I have paid version.
