### 4/5 — The best title overlay app

*2025-07-11, version 1.1.1*

Works really,well for me now. Wrote a review years ago saying it didn’t work, but it works fine now. Only thing I’d say is it would be useful to save a project to be able to come back to it later and edit? Now you export the finished graphic only?

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work for me.

*2023-09-03, version 1.1.1*

No more to say. Can’t even open an image.

### 1/5 — App does NOT work

*2022-07-05, version 1.1.1*

Really upset because I paid more than a dollar for an app that doesn’t work and that Apple has not only NOT removed from the App Store, but promoted in their recent app recommendations. This is terrible!!!

### 2/5 — Ovla app

*2021-08-15, version 1.1.1*

I downloaded this app & want to buy the in-app items. But in the app I couldn’t find those items. Can somebody help me where to find it please?

### 5/5 — 유용합니다

*2021-06-30*

카드나 표지 이미지를 만들 때 유용합니다. 처음에 사용법이 조금 헷갈리긴 하는데 튜토리얼 보니까 금방 따라할 수 있게 되어 있더라구요. 실행취소 버튼만 추가적으로 만들어 주시면 좀 더 편하게 사용할 수 있을 것 같습니다.

### 5/5 — The only app the still has apple’s original fade filter

*2021-06-04, version 1.1.1*
