I guess all these positive reviews are bots. All of the templates were blank until you click on the thumbnail, then you can see it (except 5 you could see the thumbnail without clicking on it first.) When I tried to create from scratch it wouldn’t let me give the app access to only certain albums. I couldn’t get to any of the stickers. Then I couldn’t figure out how to upload a pic after giving limited access (or trying to.)The settings menu is lacking. I’m gonna go cancel my subscription trial ASAP! So disappointed because it looked like the perfect thing to do while feeling anxious. Back to the App Store I go. ### 1/5 — App is broken IOS 16.6 *2023-09-13* I will preface by saying I love this app. I used it all the time prior to the 16.6 update. But even with the current IOS update 16.6.1 that just released, it has completely stopped working. It originally stopped working in July when 16.6 first came out. As soon as I open the app, it closes. I would really appreciate a fix as the app doesn’t even work anymore. This app deserves a 5 star but many months without an update to fix the issue, is a bit disheartening. I will change my review once it’s fixed! ### 4/5 — !! MY GLITCH !! *2023-08-20* The app is personally amazing the only problem is that I’ve been have issues with trying to open the app. When I try to open the app it pauses and then closes itself sadly I've already done almost everything to try and fix this issue but it still hasn’t worked or even started to fix. Great app overall though :) but also bad glitches ;( ### 5/5 — Works nicely for me, thanks for the quick app update! <3 *2023-02-24, version 1.7.7* Last Thursday, I wrote a review mentioning a glitch making it so that each design only showed as a blank white canvas. Less than a week later, this past Wednesday, the Nichi app developers sent out a new app update and as of today, the glitch seems to have been completely fixed! Just wanted to write another review saying a quick thank you! 💛 Everything seems to be running smoothly. I really appreciate the quick and helpful response/update. :) 5 stars from me! ### 3/5 — Worked, not anymore. *2023-02-22, version 1.7.6* It worked for a good while, unfortunately it doesn’t work any longer. I contacted the developer to no avail. I just deleted the app (losing my templates I guess), but that did not fix it either. I’ll give the developer a few more days and then I’ll cancel my subscription ;-/ ### 3/5 — What’s happened? *2023-02-20, version 1.7.6* I’ve paid for a year’s subscription from January 23-24 but the last two days I haven’t been able to get access at all. Very anxious to get back to making pretty art! I love this app! ### 3/5 — Amazing, save for one thing… *2022-10-08, version 1.7.6* So I’m obsessed with this app, and everything about it. The one thing I wish would be changed is that when I import a group photo, it cuts out the edges so I can’t see the whole thing. Other than that, I’m literally in love with this app. Thanks for reading! ### 5/5 — AMAZING!!!! *2022-09-12, version 1.7.6* At first when I opened the app I thought “Great I have to get premium to have the full experience.” I didn’t get premium so when I started using it I realized you can do basically anything without premium. So you can have a great time with this app without having to pay. I completely recommend especially if you are a digital artist or even a scrapbooker. Great if you also want custom wallpapers. Best app ever I am obsessed!!! ### 3/5 — Man I wanted to love this… *2022-08-27, version 1.7.6* It does have some AWESOME features, but ultimately wasn’t versatile enough for my needs. Huge drawback: no way (that I saw) to resize the dimensions of the “page” you’re given to work with. Fonts were very limited, and there should be a way to create custom text box sizes. The style of the graphics was really nice, and working with them pretty easy, but there just wasn’t enough variety. For instance, there should be way more themes and color schemes available. But if you are content to work within the limited aesthetic style offered, this app would definitely be worth the low annual price. I’m going to keep watching it and hoping more variety and flexibility is built into the program, because it has real promise! ### 5/5 — -read before you get the app!- *2022-08-22, version 1.7.6* I was looking for a aesthetic app for my wallpaper, and Nichi sounded good, so I downloaded it. Most apps I download you have to pay for them, and get trials, but Nichi is a really Great app and I totally recommend it if you want to make a collage or just a simple wallpaper. It is optional to pay or get premium but it’s not one of those apps where you have to get it. A majority of the things that they give you are free. I literally use this app so frequently and I can make my own wallpapers custom. Thank you! ## Frequently asked questions about Nichi ### What does Nichi do?
