### 5/5 — Amazing app with kaleidoscopic effects

*2025-11-15, version 2.1.0*

I love that everything works offline. Super easy to create mesmerizing wallpapers or loop background video. It’s a fun, artsy mix — I keep coming back to it.

### 1/5 — Don’t install! Money hungry App!

*2025-10-13*

Downloaded it and can’t even preview it without “having” to set up trial version. It has an option to continue with “limited version” but it doesn’t work. That takes you to option to use your camera or select picture to use. Will let you select a picture so it can snoop into your life but won’t let you use your camera to look at things around you in its simulated lense. Definitely deleting app. Don’t waste your time or risk your money with this company. Uninstalling!

**Developer response:** Our app does not require any mandatory trial period — this can be verified by any new user. The situation you described simply does not exist in our product.
It looks like you may be describing a completely different app. We take transparency and user trust very seriously, and such fake claims only harm real users and our team.

### 3/5 — Great but missing options

*2025-03-20*

If it gave the option to upload a video, I would give it 5 stars.

**Developer response:** Sure, we’re already working on it! 
Sincerely Yours, Awesome World Team

### 3/5 — Import Photos

Can you guys add a feature that allows people to use photos they already took?

**Developer response:** Good idea! Why not?

### 5/5 — Awesome app to make fun

*2024-04-02, version 0.7.5*

Downloaded app couple of days ago and still playing with it, really like an idea 😎

### 5/5 — Captivating and enchanting

*2024-03-26*

I could watch this for hours. And so much more fun to be able to take pictures with the varying kaleido effects. To top it all off, the Dev is ultra-responsive. Other devs should follow this lead.
