### 3/5 — Not working ever since the switch to iOS 12

*2018-10-05*

I’ve been having issues with this app since I downloaded the iOS 12 software to my phone. Every time I try to open the app it will freeze and if I take a picture with it sometimes it won’t save it. I find myself having to delete and then re-download the app and then will still have the same issues. Please fix because I love this app so much!

### 2/5 — Not working anymore.

*2018-09-30*

This app doesn’t work anymore with the current OS.  Anyone experiencing this? I loved this app and it stopped working about two a week ago.  Please fix the bugs.  Thank you

### 3/5 — Great App Except For...

*2017-12-25*

I really like the effect MagiCam gives my photos but I’ve missed many photo opportunities because of the interruption of “Do you want to delete this image?”  Please, developers, either make the app automatically delete older images (they are, after all, saved to the photos library automatically) or make it simple to clear the MagiCam library.

### 2/5 — Missed Opportunity

*2017-12-04*

Takes great photos, but the constant nag to delete photos, just as you’re trying to get another shot, makes the app intolerable.

### 4/5 — Great but needs to be reinstalled periodically

*2017-11-12*

Takes great photos but needs to be periodically reinstalled. You'll know it's time to delete and reinstall when the app asks if it's OK to delete a photo from your library after every photo you snap. Deleting and reinstalling fixes this. I've seen this issue for about a year. Not new to iOS 11. Not a huge problem but irritating. Still use the app because it indeed takes great photos. Worth the annoyance.

### 2/5 — Nice pics, but one really bad bug

*2017-10-29*

Magicam takes nice pics, but it keeps asking me if i want to delete previous photos. Other users are complaining about the same bug.  Don’t buy until this bug is fixed.

### 3/5 — Great for quick snaps, one obnoxious flaw

*2017-10-23*

I like this app for quick snaps that I don’t have time to mess with other camera apps that take too long to set up for some moments. But once you’ve taken 54 photos, you have to delete the app and reinstall to force clear the cache, or suffer an obnoxious warning asking if you want to allow MagiCam to delete the first picture taken off of all of your devices including the cloud, and you have to answer no every time. And that is horrible and causes it to become almost impossible to use. I’ve found less annoying apps that are almost as good and quicker to use because of that stupid feature and no ability to clear the photo roll without deleting the photos from the photo roll and everywhere. Please fix this, and include a setting that allows you to empty the roll in the app without deleting the photos, or deleting the app.

### 4/5 — It is a wonderful photo app, however.....

*2017-07-29*

Photos are sharp and vibrant but it continuously asks if I want to delete a photo. 
This is a simple fix that the developers seem to be dragging their feet on fixing. 
Also there is no contact information to contact the developers directly.
Please fix the bug and all will be well in the universe.

### 3/5 — GLITCHY !!!  Abandoned app???

*2017-07-02*

I have been reading multiple reviews on here that are saying the same thing:  continuous crashing AND the app constantly asks you if you want to delete an old picture.  Why!? Are the developers unable to fix these issues?  People keep asking…

### 1/5 — Do you use your own app????

*2017-06-26*

This app used to be great until about a year ago with an update I'm assuming....... now it crashes all the time, takes forever to take a photo, and wants to delete an old picture after it takes one. Do the creators of this app pay attention or use this app at all themselves?  Disappointed. Took a good app and made it annoying a worthless.

### 3/5 — Like it but...

*2017-04-30*

Why does it keep trying to delete previously taken photos every time I take a new photo?

### 2/5 — Magicam

*2017-02-26*

The improvements it claims are not apparent but one serious disadvantage is, namely that it sends the photo taken directly to the iPhone album. One big advantage of its predecessor is that it holds photos in the camera for selection and editing before saving them.

### 4/5 — Awesome App

*2017-02-16*

Please make it Available to Camera Roll and accessible from photos. 
Both the MagicCam and Camera+ are the best photo apps i can recommend to anyone.

### 2/5 — Trop cher pour ce que c'est

*2017-01-25*

Appli interessante au niveau effet, mais je trouve ça inacceptable de nous faire payer 1,99 euros une application photo qui ne permet pas de zoomer ou de faire mise au point. Du coup je la désinstalle. Une demande de remboursement est en cours. 
Pas de version gratuite de cette application non plus.

### 2/5 — Not good for 6S

*2016-12-23, version 1.3*

Cannot use front facing camera. Filters are very elementary, even for a beginner. No setting or info icons.  Some pics of the same images vary in fuzziness.  For a one shot then edit camera you will end up deleting more than you keep.  DisappointedThe first few reviews cannot possibly be about this app. There is not felt I have waisted my money.here is not a way that I see where one could ask for a refun. Bait  n switch .

### 2/5 — Not impressed

*2016-12-04*

Just bought this app and it did not let me use the selfie option

### 1/5 — I do not recommend this application

*2019-09-02*

Very bad application 😡👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

### 1/5 — Spam

*2019-08-29*

Used to really love this app until I was trying to photograph a difficult to shoot moving subject and the app decided it was a good time to solicit me for a photo course. That was all it took to go from hundreds of personal recommendations and five stars to one. I paid for this. Keep your spam to yourself.

### 1/5 — 최악의 어플입니다.

*2019-08-16*

사진 불러오기 안되고 촬영만 가능한 전혀 필요없는 어플입니다. 절대 돈 주고 사지마세요.

### 1/5 — Great IF it worked!!

*2018-10-04, version 1.4.2*

Unfortunately freezes right after I take a photo! Absolutely useless!

### 1/5 — Not working on ios12

*2018-09-27*

Hi. This was one of the best camera apps for me prior to ios12. It freezes after updating my software to ios12.

### 1/5 — Inutile

*2018-06-23*

J aurais dû lire les commentaires précédents avant d acheter l appli. C est une honte, cela n apporte rien de plus que ce qui est déjà embarqué sur l iPhone !!!!

### 1/5 — Can’t use on existing photos

*2018-05-27*

This app is great if you want to open it to take photos but you can edit photos you already have which essentially makes it useless for me.

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2017-10-20*

What a waste. Can’t even zoom. All it does is apply filters. No thanks.

### 1/5 — Take the have to delete an older picture

*2017-10-02*

Whenever I take a picture, the app asks me to delete an older picture. I have 20+ GB available on phone. No way to contact customer support. Oh, this is the paid version also.

### 1/5 — Waste!

*2017-09-08, version 1.3*

Front facing camera doesn't work! Pic look weird!  Not worth money!

### 5/5 — Thanks !

*2020-06-30*

Just great for simple and quick shots. 
Not everyone has time to spend hours applying filters and adjustements.  
Well worth the price !

Please dont give up on its development 
Or if you should, consider bundling a one shot mode in Camera+2

### 5/5 — No longer works under IOS 12 UPDATE

*2018-10-05*

It works fine again with IOS patch.

### 5/5 — Best photo app I have

*2018-08-19*

Love this app - it takes superb photos, never blurred.

### 5/5 — Nailed it!

*2016-12-03, version 1.3*

This is the one...📷✨

### 5/5 — Pregunta

*2016-09-20, version 1.3*

Por qué me pide eliminar fotos, vez que tomo una con la aplicación, podrían eliminar esa función ya que es molesto

### 5/5 — Very good app for pics

*2016-08-31*

Quality of pics are very good
Please remove the message after picture click where it says don't allow or delete a pic. Its annoying.

### 5/5 — Good

*2016-08-09*

You need to add video and the ability to enhance existing photos too and not just present photos taken with the app.

### 5/5 — A camera app for non-geeks

*2016-06-04*

This app is for people who like to take excellent photos without the hassle and aggravation with other camera apps.  Nothing to set or decide, just snap the photo, the app decides wha needs to be done in the background in order to get an excellent photo.

### 5/5 — お見事！

*2015-11-13*

余計な手間を省きシンプルにただ撮る事に徹して被写体と向き合える！
そして、自動補正して綺麗に保存してくれる。
そのコンセプトは素晴らしく、良いアプリだと思います！
ただアイコンマークがちと派手かな…(笑)

### 5/5 — Magicam

*2015-05-27, version 1.2*

This is the best App I've ever bought and I have a ton of them !!! Wow from the first picture I took I have been blown away at the quality it provides!!!! These guys have designed an excellent product!!!!! Thank you!
 Ps:    Can you use your process to embellish older photo's previously taken before I installed your app? That would be pretty cool!!!
