Great free

Great app that is actually free works pretty good, but you just have to have a very still hand

Awesome

Used for years! Thank you!

Not worth it

I didn’t even open the app. After I downloaded it my phone started overheating and my battery was draining faster than I could charge my phone. I removed the app and now my phone is good again.

Perfect

Free and works wonderfully! I was trying to use the camera as a magnifying glass, and it was impossible to get the focus right. This is exactly what I needed. Thanks!

It works

Wish it had some sepia/high contrast filters, but at least it has negatives and a brghtness/contrast slider
