(7+,8+,10, 11,12) Does not support portrait mode. Has a lot of gimmicky features. The UI is meh. Could definitely use a redesign. Good luck, can’t wait to change this to 5 stars. **Developer response:** Thank you for your support and sorry about the bad experience. 1. Please update to version 3.1.5. 2. You can pinch to zoom in/out, it will switch between the camera. But to switch to the telephoto lens, you need aim on the distant sencery before zoom in the view. ### 4/5 — Green image *2020-10-05, version 3.1.3* After upgrading iphone tp ios 14 when i use selfi camera, my captured image is distroyed. ### 4/5 — Change Video Quality (Fps) ?? *2020-04-29, version 3.1.0* If i Need to change video quality there’s no option for it :(. Why it only shoot at 1080p 30fps ? ### 4/5 — App not working for me any more on an iPhone 11 *2020-01-13, version 3.0.17* This app was so much fun to use, worked with my iPhone 7 and iPhone 8, I recently upgraded to an iPhone 11 and the app does not seem to work anymore, was fun while it lasted tricking people that things were a different color then they actually were ### 3/5 — No image stabiliser *2019-12-27* Paid and downloaded app but no image stabilise and magic colour didn’t work ### 5/5 — The best *2019-04-29* Hands down the best and most intuitive app out there! ### 5/5 — Wow *2019-04-27* What a magical app. There is a mage. Only complaint is when I turn it on, it demands blue tooth settings, this gives user a black eye, stick that choice in settings. So that when app is activated it allows user to shoot straight away. I often photograph Tiger snakes in the wild, and am usually in a hurry. ### 5/5 — Woah *2019-04-23* Woah. Woah woah woah. All the filters, effects and features works really well. No in app crap or locked features like other camera apps - everything works for free! Well done! ### 5/5 — Affected by apple ui invert colour feature *2019-04-22, version 3.0.17* ‘This it the best camera app I ever seen but its Affected by apple ui invert colour feature. If the invert colour is black the camera open in negative mood by default. Please fixed it urgently and When I zoom a taken picture by this app it’s very soft and noisy. So please improve the image quality more. Overall it’s a great camera app ever. ### 4/5 — Change controls UI *2019-04-19* This is a good app for video and photography. Just needs a change in controls UI, and that change will make this an awesome app. So plz change the Control UI plzzzzzz ### 5/5 — Perfect for Stop motion! *2019-03-31, version 3.0.17* I only use it for taking Stop motion. That's all. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Constantly crashes therefore had to delete *2022-02-12* Constantly crashes therefore had to delete - unacceptable for an app that charges £3.49 ### 1/5 — Nopeeee *2021-01-15, version 3.1.8* Literally a terrible app for anyone trying to add any kind of sound to your video that you can’t get from iTunes. Because for the backround sound it’s either gotta come from iTunes or it’s a sound on there app. So can’t add your own sound really ### 1/5 — Update bricks app unless you allow microphone access *2021-01-11, version 3.1.8* Don’t be contemptuous of your users by forcing them to give you unnecessary microphone access or you’ll keep them from using the app! Looks like your app is now spyware. ### 1/5 — trash *2020-05-14* WORST app ive ever used. you can edit videos for sh** ### 1/5 — Unnecessary automated clicks *2019-11-06* Every time when I change Photo, Video, Manual, Time-lapse by rotating the wheel it automatically take a picture or start recording. This is very irritating. Lots of unnecessary images and videos get stored in my phone because of this bug. I just purchased this app. But this issue makes me really unsatisfied. Total waste of money. Appreciate if you can refund or fix this issue. ### 1/5 — Refuses to work *2019-04-20* This app demands certain permissions and refuses to work without them, despite this being eminently possible. Such behaviour should be against Apple’s developer terms, IMO. Disappointing. ### 1/5 — Just crashes. *2019-04-14* Allnit does is crash when using video clips. Useless. ### 1/5 — Looks cool, but app doesn’t work on my iPhone 7 Plus *2018-06-27, version 3.0.15* The app looks cool and I’m sure would be fun to use. However, I’ve downloaded/redownloaded the app and the camera function for both front/back camera doesn’t work. ### 1/5 — 1/5 *2018-06-23* IT WOULDN’T EDIT VIDEOS FROM TODAY!! IT ONLY EDITS VIDEOS FROM YESTERDAY AND THAT’S IT!! 1/5. ### 1/5 — 😩😩😩 *2018-02-28* I can't see the video when I try to edit it so please fix that and I also can't export the movie ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Hey good people *2022-02-18, version 3.1.15* One of my favorites apps. Recently not saving projects. Also please add import. Thank you so much ### 5/5 — One of the best in its kind *2021-01-25, version 3.1.8* The online thing this app lacks is video stabilisation. Everything else is just perfect. I love its ability to apply filter and other effects while recording. ### 5/5 — Perfect App *2021-01-10* Super***** ### 5/5 — The Best Camera App EVER! *2020-05-25* Amazing app! I deleted all other camera apps because this app has it all in a simple and elegant graphical interface, very well done! Highly recommended! ### 5/5 — The best app for everything *2019-10-28, version 3.0.17* This app is like a Swiss Army knife, it has everything you could ever need in one app. I love all the filters you get to use for photos and videos. I don’t think you could ever run out of ideas with this app because it has everything you need and then some. The only thing I see that could make it better is recording in 4K but that’s not that big of a deal ### 5/5 — 10/10 Best video app *2019-09-03* This is hands down the best video recording application I have used in ages! Thanks developers! Harrison. ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2019-08-23, version 3.0.17* this is the best app to record a video. this app gives you manually fixed focus when recording a video and this is awesome thing 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 ### 5/5 — 1 Application *2019-07-22* Cool application for everyone who loves to make videos and take photos with ease. Application is to be appreciated. Guys you really made it perfect application for all ages. Thank you all. Application deserves highest rating without question or doubts. Highly recommend... ### 5/5 — BEST PHOTO AND VIDEO APP EVER *2019-06-11, version 3.0.17* Guys, I've pretty much downloaded every photo and video app on the App Store. This app is COMPLETELY FREE!!! NO extra pro stuff you have to pay for. NO ADS! Great filters, lots of choices. Good audio. This app I totally recommend. There is a watermark at the end of the videos you take but if really don't like it( I think it's cool) you can just trim the video in photos. I really recommend!!!! Aj🙃 ### 5/5 — Best camera app ever! *2019-05-11* This app is AMAZING! Please keep this app free forever it has amazing features for everything. It’s excellent for photos or videos with control over exposure, ISO, etc. It has so many great filters and even some cool ones that are really helpful if you want to take a picture of something to draw. For example, you can use the gauche, comic book, painting, sketch, or manga filters to simplify the colours and outlines of whatever you want to draw. This app just gives you so much control over every feature, its stabilization feature is excellent, and I’m so glad I came across it! I 100% recommend it for anyone, whether you use it professionally or just for fun! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
