### 2/5 — Как говорится – раньше было лучше!

*2026-05-02*

Отличное было предложение и приложение, давно не пользовался им, зашел и что увидел я? Интерфейс ужас, эффекты которые были можно сказать фишкой приложения просто их нет, есть какие-то царапины, грандж и прочая ненужная ерунда!

Подписка еще ладно, всем нужно зарабатывать на своем детище, это нормально, но за такое приложение и его изменения я лично платить не готов.

**Developer response:** Здравствуйте! Все старые эффекты бережно сохранены, а также добавлено много новых. Чтобы их найти, просто зайдите в нужный шаблон и выберите соответствующую категорию — интерфейс изменился именно для того, чтобы вместить весь этот новый функционал.

Изменения в монетизации позволяют нам развивать проект дальше: сейчас для нас в приоритете обеспечение стабильной работы на новейших iPhone, iPad и Mac. Жаль, что обновление вас расстроило, но мы продолжим делать приложение лучше.

### 5/5 — Satın alma

*2026-01-21, version 2.0.2*

Satın almış olduğum ürün her geliştirme yaptığınızda para ödemek zorunda kalacaksak neden ücretli versiyon seçelimki siz bir ürün yapmışsınız bunun arakasında durmak zorundasınız satın alınan bir üründe bir sürü geliştirme dahi yapsanız önceden satın alan kişiye haklarını vermek zorundasınız üründe yapılan geliştirmeler yeni satın alan kişilere ücreti artırıp yansıta bilirsiniz fakat eski satın alan kişilere yansıtamazsınız etik değil

### 1/5 — I shouldn’t update to the newest version!

### 1/5 — Lost premium

*2025-11-23, version 2.0.0*

Why do I no longer have premium lifetime access?

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2025-11-22*

I purchased this app a few months ago and now since the most recent update I can no longer access any of the premium features.

**Developer response:** Hi! All effects in LUCH are still completely free — nothing was removed. We actually added more effects in the latest update.
Only some optional premium frames are paid now, everything else remains available for everyone.
Thank you for using LUCH! 😊

### 3/5 — Норм за свои деньги

*2025-09-06*

Заявлено что есть эффекты призмы, бликов и боке, но в приложении только пыль с царапинами. Пользуюсь айфон 13. Где остальные эффекты?

**Developer response:** Здравствуйте, надо просто листать далее, все эффекты на месте

### 1/5 — 저장이안됨

Кстати, многие пишут про нестабильную работу приложения, лично у меня работает все нормально 😌
