### 3/5 — Can’t buy/unlock presets

*2023-10-06*

Why tho, no updates I guess

### 3/5 — Can’t buy upgrade

*2023-05-03*

This so had potential but didn’t allow upgrade
Nevef have soo that won’t let you buy??

### 5/5 — I love unique offerings

*2022-10-04, version 2.4*

This is unique, not only does it offer cool artists style filters (DaVinci/Van Gogh etc) -but then you can adjust those filters
 and add more levels of line work depth,
blur etc. I only wish more apps could offer what PicsArt has, being able to edit and remove the areas where you add effects. I dont mind though.
Cos Im still Photoshop all the way 
so i can do some layers and edit more there if and when necessary or use PicsArt if not available.  
, . but whats great is the creativity these filters inspire, they often pop out details
 I wasn't expecting , particularly in what I've been experimenting with, 
-aka photographing lately, shadow, light, skies, sunsets, sunrises and lately our human skies have all been almost scifi amazing! 
This app has some creative inspiring capabilities, it can move you into new ideas and creative visions!

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2022-10-02, version 2.4*

Free version works - but none of the artist styles work in the paid version. The app crashes upon trying to use any of them.

### 1/5 — Awful images

*2022-06-17, version 2.4*

I tried many different professional images, even paid for the full package in case the artists’ styles were better. The only thing that produces a usable image of any kind are the “classic” styles..which are a dime a dozen in other apps.  This transformed my images to fuzzy, fat, unrecognizable crap.

### 1/5 — Don’t get

*2022-04-27, version 2.4*

Paid to unlock the artist apps, the whole point I wanted it. And now there is a bug that closes it out each time I press it.

### 2/5 — Won’t stay on Artist’s Style

*2022-01-17, version 2.4*

As soon as I purchased the app the bug appeared. Every time a select an artist’s style it closes the app. My phone is up to date as well as the app. Everything else works but as soon as make a choice to select a style it closes. Which was the pro Mary reason I chose this app in the first place

### 5/5 — Great tool

*2021-06-21, version 2.4*

This really paints your good-to-excellent pictures in a good light. Some of my camera shots are awesome paintings. I have been enjoying the output and I am starting to put them up on my blog BlueKitten.vip 
Thanks to the author!

### 5/5 — Great for passing the time!

*2021-06-13, version 2.3*

Love this program. I was turned on to it by a friend!

### 4/5 — Great app

*2020-12-04, version 2.0*

I use this app to load my own photos and apply my style of painting. I then use it as a reference to help with values and such as I actually paint the image on canvas. Great little app. Recently it has been crashing when I try to load an artist filter to it. Styles seem to work but the Artist ones are not.

**Developer response:** I am aware of this crash introduced in iOS14 and am working to provide a fix. It appears to be due to reduced GPU and Neural Engine memory available to the app on devices newer than an iPhone 11. I have submitted a request to Apple and hope to hear back from them regarding a solution (or hopefully a new iOS update that fixes the issue instead).
