### 5/5 — Love

*2023-02-10, version 1.4*

I LOVE THE GAME keep up the good work ;D

### 4/5 — 🏆Unique! And Fun🎨📸🎞️📲✨🤩

*2023-01-06*

❤️this app. It’s different then the other text to pic apps and has a variety of ways to customize your digital photo art. It’s fun and still easy to use. If I had to suggest anything it would be to have more font styles available. The more, the better. Or have a way for users to import them into your app ourselves somehow. Love the uniqueness!!

### 2/5 — Crash

*2021-01-19*

I really love working with this app. I only have one problem, but it’s a major one. Every single time I use this app...IT CRASHES!!! Losing all of my beautiful work I’ve done so far. I have to start over every time. I finally got a pic to decorate without crashing.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-01-13, version 1.4*

It doesn’t work

### 5/5 — Super legit app

*2020-10-08*

I have a ton of photo editing apps. I just used this one for the first time today and:  LOVE!!  It is very user friendly. It goes step by step. The interface works perfectly: there’s never been a moment where I thought darn, it won’t let me do: XYZ. Nope: you CAN rotate, resize, edit the colors, add more, etc. SUPER EASILY. And the effects are super cool and I have very little artistic ability.

### 5/5 — Worked great

*2020-07-24*

Nice and easy

### 1/5 — Crashed

*2020-01-14*

The app crashes just as I’m finishing up my project, every time.

### 4/5 — Just what I was looking for

*2019-11-12*

This is exactly what I was looking 4, I would give it 5 stars, but it crashed in the mist of me creating a text and I had to start from scratch.
