### 1/5 — Bummer

*2015-07-13, version 1.4*

I have an iPhone 6+ and the app will only open and display ads; there's no way to continue from the opening screen to do anything. Too bad.

### 2/5 — Ok app

*2012-04-25, version 1.4*

It's cool for a free app but you have to press menu button and power button to save the picture then you have to crop out the adds there should be a way to save picture to camera roll just saying

### 3/5 — Good

*2012-01-29, version 1.4*

U like it it was cool u should try it

### 1/5 — NOOO GOOD

*2011-12-26, version 1.4*

Z£RØ CoOoL NOT GOOD DO NOT DOWNLOAD!!'n

### 2/5 — Very limited

*2011-11-14, version 1.4*

Although it does a good job rendering the image as a color sketch it is VERY limited in terms of what it can do and the options available. Just 5 color saturation settings and 5 brightness settings. That's it. Nothing else. I believe it would do very well if there were more option selections. Also the big ol' grey buttons feel clunky and dated. And any time you want to do something you are dumped back to the same ugly buttons. Kind of depressing actually. Update needed. I'll check back later and revise my rating.

### 5/5 — Great

*2011-09-02, version 1.4*

Amazing app

### 1/5 — Isn't compatible with iphone 4 (Verizon)

*2011-05-19, version 1.4*

keeps telling me that my version of iOS isn't compatible.
