Não está funcionando corretamente

Dividi a foto em 3 para colocar no carrocel do Instagram, mas a junção ficou pior que a do Canva.

Response from developer

Sinto muito que as partes da sua foto não tenham se encaixado como você esperava. O Panols foi reconstruído, e gostaríamos de convidar você a experimentar o app atualizado e suas ferramentas de edição. A ideia continua sendo dar espaço para sua foto contar uma história. Conte como ficou o resultado pela opção de enviar feedback no app ou pelo e-mail hello@panols.co. Estamos aqui para ajudar.

Scam

Ich hab die App für 1,99€ gekauft. Um sie zu verwenden muss ich nun nochmals für jedes Extra zahlen. Apple bitte rausnehmen aus dem Store das ist Scam.

Response from developer

Es tut mir leid, dass die zusätzlichen Käufe Sie enttäuscht haben. Im neu aufgebauten Panols werden frühere Käufe für den vollen Zugriff anerkannt, ohne die Funktionen erneut kaufen zu müssen. Probieren Sie gern die aktualisierte App aus; falls der Zugriff nicht automatisch erscheint, helfen wir Ihnen weiter. Feedback und Fragen erreichen uns über die Feedback-Funktion in der App oder unter hello@panols.co. Wir helfen gern.

Does not export photos

This app does not export photos. After splitting a photo in-app, it claims the photos were saved to my Photos library but they're nowhere to be found. I've tried everything from changing app settings to uninstalling and reinstalling.

After spending $1.99 on the app and $0.99 on IAP, I'm stuck with a broken application that hasn't been updated meaningfully in years. And by the looks of it, others have seen the same issue and haven't received any customer support.

Avoid this app.

I’m sorry your exported photos didn’t appear in Photos. Panols has been rebuilt with a refreshed editing experience, and we’d love for you to try the updated app. Helping you turn a photo you love into something you can share is still at its heart. If you need a hand or want to tell us how it goes, use Send Feedback in the app or email hello@panols.co.

Nicht kaufen

Kostet sowieso schon Geld für eine schlechte Benutzeroberfläche bei der man bei der Bildauswahl minutenlang scrollen muss um ein Bild zu finden was ein paar Tage oder Wochen alt ist, um dann noch mal 0,99 € bezahlen zu können wenn man die Bilder nicht quadratisch sondern im Hochformat haben möchte. Absolute abzocke und Müll!

Es tut mir leid, dass die Fotoauswahl umständlich war und die Zusatzkosten enttäuscht haben. Panols wurde mit einer neuen Bearbeitungsoberfläche aufgebaut; frühere Käufe berechtigen zum vollen Zugriff. Probieren Sie die aktualisierte App gern aus und sagen Sie uns, ob Sie Ihre Fotos und das passende Format leichter finden. Feedback und Fragen erreichen uns über die Feedback-Funktion in der App oder unter hello@panols.co. Wir helfen gern.

FAQ

What does Panols do?

Panols allows you to split any photo from your iPhone's photo library into multiple square images. This is particularly useful for showcasing panoramic shots or other wide images across your Instagram profile grid, creating a more immersive visual experience for your followers.

How does Panols help with Instagram posting?

The app accurately splits your panorama or wide photos into the number of squares you choose (e.g., two, three, or four). This enables you to take advantage of Instagram's standard three-across profile display to present your photos in their full glory.

Can I edit my photos with Panols?

Yes, you can edit and organize your photos within Panols. The app allows you to view metadata information, add tags, descriptions, and titles to your images, and even apply personal branding. Importantly, these edits sync with your Photo Library without affecting the original photo.

Is Panols free to use?

The application is free to download and use, but it does offer in-app purchases. This means you can enjoy the core functionality of splitting and organizing photos for free, with optional purchases available for additional features or enhancements.

What kind of photos can I split with Panols?

You can split any photo stored in your iPhone's photo library. While it's particularly effective for panoramic shots, you can also use it to split regular photos into multiple squares to create unique grid layouts on your Instagram profile.
