Too fantastic to be free
Crank up the star rating to 11 for Leonardo Photo.
You can do virtually anything with this. That it's mobile is beyond amazing. I'm glad it's free, but can't figure why it is; It's that good.
I use it every day on an iPad, and it's why I no longer bother with my desktop or laptop. The more you know, the more you'll get out of it. It's got layers, pro tools, effects, filters, press tools, and an astoundingly small footprint.
My biggest fear is that a big competitor will buy and bury it like they've done with so many innovative apps they couldn't beat.
Also, many times Apple has removed features or made programs unusable with its updates, and I would be in some sad trouble without Leonardo, so I have this on a dedicated iPad that I never update.
PS I *think* it’s the best app for photo editing, but I never needed to look at any others after I found it.

Love This App to Death
Been using it for nearly ten years now, not even joking. It’s my best kept secret - so powerful yet lightweight - and for free. The only thing I wish it had was a color picker. Aside from that, however, I have nothing but praise.
Go to app for editing
This app is absolutely legendary, and I use it for all of my photo editing. I create video thumbnails and all of my graphics using this, and I can avoid more expensive and complex editing softwares because this app has everything that I need
best editor
Does everything you want and need. User interface is straightforward and smart.
Eine super App
Aber leider kein Update mehr seit Jahren. Auch die Migration von iPhone zu iPhone klappt leider nicht (mehr?). Beim Export vom Photoshop-Format gibt es schon mal Abstürze. Trotzdem 5 Sterne, weil die App mir schon gute Dienste geleistet hat und in der Hoffnung auf ein Update, denn auch unter iOS 18.5 läuft die App - ein Zeichen für solide Programmierung!

5/5 for me
Been using this app as a graphic designer for the past 7 years and have 0 complaints.
GREAT! Alternative to Photoshop!
I’ve been searching for a replacement to Photoshop Mix for weeks. This app is great. Definitely worth it for what I do. I needed a “simple” app to layer photos - so I can overlay them on each other and also cut out. This app is very intuitive, not overloaded with extra features, does what it says it does. I would pay double for it. Please keep this app functional, it is a HUGE relief. I did not want to support Ad0be because they discontinued their app support and forced users into a paid subscription, overloading the app with AI and other unnecessary features. I have been a loyal Photoshop user for 20 years but I will not support them any more. This app does not disappoint. It has convenient features at the touch a finger. Thank you so much.

Should be Included with every iPad!
Update: one of my favorite image editing apps BUT it is filled with bugs and features that don’t work the way they’re supposed to. Sometimes I have to take a screenshot of my completed image because when I save the image correctly, it doesn’t look anything like it does while editing!

Older review: I'm giving a new review since Leonardo is now os10 savvy and I recently got a iPad mini 4. I mention the two items together because the mini 4 has replaced much older iPads I had and it has a far better camera than the older iPads... but though the camera is quite good, it's still far from perfect. This is where Leonardo comes in. It is the perfect complimentary app to quickly and drastically improve the iPad's photos. It works so perfectly/easily tweaking the iPad images that it could be considered the defacto photo app for this device. The quick results are so impressive that I am getting far better looking images than phones which include superior cameras. If it only had a batch setting, this would be beyond ideal! ------------- Original write up... 'Near Perfect Image App' Though it lacks a few features which I have to revert to another app to utilize, Leonardo has such a huge assortment of professional image editing options, it has become the final defacto app for completing image edits. Puts Adobe's iPad arsenal to shame.

Don’t
Hi is it possible to add fonts to the app? If so how is it done on iOS?
Works again
Once again an amazing app now that it installs.
I’ve been using this for years and it’s the best app for quick mockups of ideas or taking you time for a great final product.
Well done 👍

I STILL LOVE IT !!! 😍
This app is still super awesome and more advanced than much newer editing apps. It was way ahead of its time as far as removing backgrounds and adding layer effects etc. I do have Superimpose X. I love it too. But this is still my comfort zone go-to. I find myself in this app more than anything else I have on my 12.9 iPad Pro including Affinity products. I hope the Superimpose team continues to produce their high quality line of software. They really do make my iPad a Pro device. I also have the incredible Superimpose V, which is currently blowing away any video editor. I wish they had more representation in the art world on YouTube etc. They are being sorely overlooked. I can’t live without them lol.
Thank you to the devs for such awesome software. Definite staples on my iPad.

Eigentlich ganz cool
Ganz cool, ein Problem: Man kann nur Fotos bearbeiten. Wer also denkt dass man auch Videos bearbeiten kann sollte es sich nicht kaufen. Sonst echt in Ordnung. Es steht halt bei Kategorie Fotos und Videos
The best app of its type
The interface is incredible. Some say it's outdated, but I say that I don't understand what outdated has to to with anything. A powerful app like this, that can do so much, so easily, should not be belittled with foolish criticisms. Would you prefer a fancy app that is hard to master and that has less capabilities, then get it.
I prefer easy to use and powerful to trendy. It's up to you.

Make two in one
Please combine Leonardo and SuperimposeX in one App. This Booth App‘s are Great, but together the best in Store. Please make it. Sorry vor my Bad english.
Turn off stock photos, Not Wanted
Pinned to top of photo library access. Much too easy to click on. I would like to opt out of this.
Simple and easy
Sure, there’s a few things that could be improved or added, but this is one of the simplest and easiest apps for photo editing. The learning curve is a fraction of what is required from other apps. Don’t expect a high end product, but expect a great and easy-to-use app that you can use within minutes. Have used this now for about 4-5 years!

I guess the free version resolution is still crippled beyond usefulness
Used to be great but with only one resolution available, “small”, since an update a few years ago, everything imports horribly low res. I’m assuming this is just on the free version to get users to upgrade. But it renders it completely useless. Plus, as mentioned, merge down function has been broken for ages. Merging layers from layer opacity adjustment menu deletes bottom layer. You can leave that and flatten, which works, but if you don’t want to flatten all layers you’re out of luck. Dev never responded to email. Oh well. In the trash.

How do I fix this?
Hi. This is a great app that I used to use for some photo editing. I just downloaded it on my new phone and I was excited to use it but for some reason every time I add an image, it’s quality becomes very poor. It didn’t do this before. How do I fix it?
