What was once functional and great

The app auto closes the second I try to launch it as of 10.4.26 and previous to this since V4 Plugging my interface into my phone to record direct in guitar audio causes the app to fail to record any video and gives me an error.

This update ruined all

After this last update, my videos and photos won’t look the same, I’ve tried fixing it but nothing works, and I’ve tried contacting customer support and nothing..I’m so disappointed

Very buggy

Adds a green cast to all photos, crashes, and doesn’t give as good of a result as other apps. Seems increasingly vibe coded

V4 issues

App there’s a whole lot faster and snappier. Real Hue looks great, and the vastly expanded film grain options are very enticing. More testing will need to be done to dial in the look that I like. One huge huge problem though is the video stability. I can’t get more than 30 frames a second no matter what I try let alone 60 which is what I prefer. Even 1080p can’t handle more than 22 to 30 frames per second, and I think that’s simply unacceptable. The older version 3 locked in 60 fps beautifully, including the film grain.

Latest update is a total game changer

Pearls has always been the gold standard for iPhone, but it had one major flaw, it was slow and lagged badly. The latest update has revolutionized the user experience: simply remarkle. My go to app. If you want to hear "I cannot believe this was taken in an iPhone" this is your app. Well done Pearla 👏👏👏

Camera control !

Upgrade some difficulty, but ok. Please return film preset on camera control!!

I love the app

I mean I respect your work but at least give reasonable pricing I would love to buy it even if it was 25/yr but 50$ is just not gonna happen although I love it but hate that it’s so expensive at least for my country . You can at least give a regional pricing for the people not in the us . Hopefully the developers understand that they have customers from other countries too that really wanna pay but at least make it accessible to them ?

Requires you to buy subscription

Requires you to buy subscription as soon as you open the app. If you’re gonna lock even the most basic functionality behind the subscription then why even bother making it free on the app store? Charge people directly on the App Store instead of wasting people’s time by making them download a free app and then hitting them with a 25$/year subscription page as soon as they open the app.

Response from developer

Listing subscription apps as free is Apple’s policy. Not ours.

Can’t even try the app before paying

The app forces you to pay before even being able to try it and forces you to choose the 1 year subscription for the free trial and you need to put your credit cards information. Nothing concrete unless you pay, don’t bother downloading if you’re not wanting to pay.

Response from developer

We do not collect credit card information. Payment details for trial activation is an App Store requirement, not ours.

Subscription only

Hopefully I save people a download. Subscription based only. What a let down.

Wait…

This is literally just VSCO 😭

Frustrating

The app certainly has potential but the interface is terribly fiddly and I found it took multiple presses to switch from automatic to manual mode. I could not lock the shutter speed or iso either. Overall I did not enjoy using this app one bit: Mood Camera, Nofusion and Project Indigo have far better interfaces.

Hidden Gem

Tbh, I wasn’t expecting much, but this is surprisingly good. You really don’t need to buy a camera to get that Fuji look. Great app.

Very buggy

Adds a green cast to all photos, crashes, and doesn’t give as good of a result as other apps

Scam

Do not download

Monthly subsciption

Yes this app might be good but an expensive subscription with ongoing payments is just awful.
I would totally pay for a good app but not in sub model!

You dont even allow to try the app and ask money with first log in?

Needs improvement.

Fix the user experience

I love your app and love the simulations and how I have been able to record some great videos with it, but please improve your UX. Example, when I am on the film emulation screen, how do I go back to the camera view? There is no back arrow no indicator, nothing. Fix this please. It should be an easy fx.

Just a bit more…

I’ll get right to it: the results I’ve gotten with this app have been astonishing. I love exactly where this app is taking me. My only criticism is an inability to customize the UI so that things are easier to see and that settings are easier to find and to lock once I have Established them. I still haven’t been able to get the zebras to work, which is my only main criticism.

Let me try before making an account

Ask for an account and then for a payment... really ? So now i will receive emails and i have another account that i don't want
