New Version

Missing the old version that use to be my go-to. When the new version launched it tricked me into believing I needed a subscription to use the features I use to get for free and then it subscripted me to an entire year and I couldn’t get a refund. Now the app isn’t even doing what it easily did before. Every time I add a second image onto the main one to overlay, there’s visible lines on the export some reason where the additional image was pasted in. It use to cleanly blend.

Excellent app! Excellent customer service!

There have been recent updates drastically improving the app. An excellent feathering tool has been added among other fine tuning to blend the overlays. Unlike many other app developers ,Alan Cushway actually responds! Thanks Alan!

Response from developer

Thanks right back for the excellent feature requests and bug reports :)

It used to be amazing

This app used to be so simple and effective . All I needed was to layer two images and it did exactly that for free. Now it has been reworked into an abomination of features other apps can do so much better . What happened to the free editor I loved. Completely ruined

Update to completely different app

I used this app as my go-to overlay app. After the update I can’t even figure out how to overlay and erase anymore- this app became so complicated and lacking in instructions what the heck!!

Payment

Stop making an app look free, then add the subscription price upon opening it. That’s rude, and I’d never pay for it. Not till I know how it works. You wouldn’t walk into a photoshoot you were invited to, and be expected to pay an admission fee without being told. Like?? Also stop blocking my review. I’ll sue. I am that petty.

:/

It was the perfect app to create an overlay but it’s now full of mew functions that I never needed and it’s now impossible to get a correct overlay as previously. Subscription cancelled. Bye

I have this app on my tablets. I always loved this app, it is one of my favorite go to’s when I’m feeling creative. However, it is no longer the app I’ve been using for years. It looks like the same app, but when I open it I don’t recognize anything. I don’t even know how to use it and it doesn’t seem to work in the same way. It seems like I can’t use it for the things I used to use it for. Why didn’t you just create a different app instead of taking an app you already had and turning it into something else. I’m so frustrated and confused.

Ruined

Absolutely ruined by the latest update. I relied on this app for my small business to create mock ups really easily and now it’s totally changed and useless to me.

Where has the old app gone?

I used this app many times and it has changed and now i will look for another app that does what this once did

I don’t like the changes!

It was much better before!!! It is so tough to do an overlay of one image over another. I used to be able to overlay an image then simply erase part of it to perfectly set in a scene with another photo. Now, from what I was able to figure out, you have to create a sticker of one photo to place it within the scene of another.

Shame

New “version” is a totally different app which completely ruins a product I have been happily paying for year after year. Should have released a new app.

Change for the worse

I used to love using the app as it was so simple to use on a phone, select 2 photos, overlay and use the eraser to remove detail of top layer, then adjust shape and size of the remaining item, can’t seem to do that now :(

Something changed

I’m not enjoying the changes

What have they done

Completely ruined app

Revised Opinion

I initially said this new version was horrible, but after contacting support about the problems I was having, Alan Cushaway got back to me almost immediately and gave me a number of tips, which helped immensely!! Thank you!

The update is terrible!

I’ve used this app for years to figure out tattoo placements. The update is COMPLETELY different than the original concept that could have either added as an extra feature or maybe even a different app all together. I’m so sad that I can no longer use the app for what I originally used it for :(

最悪のアップデート

レイヤーを半透明にして背景画像上での位置を調整できる機能がなくなる他、切り抜きも輪郭をぼやかせなくなり、本当に不便になった。
代わりにAIの編集機能を追加したようだが余計。目新しい機能もなく、他の既存のアプリで十分。
10年近く使い続けてきた神アプリでしたが、ゴミアプリに成り下がったのでお役御免です。アンインストールです。さようなら。

Your app is now useless. Appalling.

You have changed it without any user consultation. One of the reasons I liked using it was because of the simple no frills interface. Avoid. Avoid. Avoid. Impossible to give zero stars. That's another complaint.

Horrible

This version sucks!

You Completely Changed it

I've used this app for years, and a major change was recently made that turns this into a completely different tool. Why did you make such radical core changes to your old program? With changes this big, it should have been a separate app. I'm uninstalling as this is not just an "update" but a complete rework of UI and function.
