### 3/5 — いいけど。

*2015-01-19, version 1.0*

ぼかす時、その領域が写真の中で狭い場合に対応するために、拡大してからぼかしを入れられると文句無しかな(*^^*)

### 2/5 — First effort is not worth it

*2015-01-01*

I was hoping to like this app for use as a quick tool, but it came up short in too many areas:  it doesn't follow Apple's interface guidelines (e.g. requests suggest that your image will be cropped as a square photo yet output is the same orientation as the original pic (not necessarily a bad thing, however, just bad execution)), uses poor grammar in dialogues, and does not support full resolution photography (iPhone 6). Max res is only 1704x2272 pixels.

Most importantly, as a "one trick pony," this app falls very short of the mark as its "blurring effect" cannot be modified and is really ineffective unless used in very small areas.
