The Best Photo Editor

Have been a fan a Phlow since before its official launch. I’ve proudly been a user and member since its conception. Shooting within the app is simple and editing couldn’t have been more fun and easy. I’ve received more compliments on my photography since Phlow than I can count. Thank you Zelen for bringing creativity to life!

Love it!!!

So easy to use and makes my pics look like they’ve been taken with professional equipment. The quality is brilliant. I take way more photos than I used to now that I have Phlow. Truly love! (First review I’ve ever given btw)

Big line across my images

After I edit any picture a line becomes apparent across the image. This only happens when I edit an image and not when I paste my filters. Please fix this as it makes the app unusable.

I’ve experienced a lot of bugs over the years with this app, as soon as one is fixed another comes up.

Please sort this ASAP!

No free version

Every time i snap a photo, cute little pop up thats says “subscribe” might be a cool app but guess ill never know.

The best raw camera App

That is unbelievable! With this app on my phone, life is much easier. I don't have to carry my cameras anymore. I have professional-quality pictures taken with my phone and edited in the App in 10 minutes. No downloading, no Photoshop editing, just an easy and fast way to have the post’s pictures!

Best app

This is literally my favorite go to app!

You have to give them access to everything for the app to work

The app is basically unusable unless you grant it access to nearly everything on your phone—your location, your entire photo library, and more. That level of access feels excessive and really off-putting.

Dark

I have had this app for awhile and LOVED the simplicity of it when it first came out. Now it seems harder to use and every picture I take looks great through the phone, but then the actual picture is super dark. Nothing I do fixes this issue. I just want the original version back.

Hope this gets to you

I just want to start by saying how much I genuinely love Phlow. It’s one of the most impressive and innovative photography apps I’ve ever used. The ability to capture high-resolution images while experimenting with different presets that emulate vintage and classic cameras is simply outstanding. On top of that, the level of flexibility the app offers for editing is incredible, it really gives users full creative control over their photos.

I’ve recommended Phlow to many friends, and several of them are now using it regularly. They love it just as much as I do, which says a lot about how great the app is.

That said, there are a few issues that I believe, if improved, would make the experience even better. Occasionally, the app crashes and closes unexpectedly. Also, when saving edits, the “developing” process sometimes gets stuck and never completes, which can be quite frustrating.

In addition, when editing ProRAW Plus photos, the interface often becomes clunky and buggy, which affects the overall usability and makes the editing process less smooth than it should be.

Another feature I truly miss is the RAW sharpening tool. It added a level of detail that felt natural and refined, unlike standard sharpening, it enhanced the image without making it look artificial. Bringing this feature back would make a big difference.

Overall, FlowApp is already an amazing product. I believe the main focus now should be on consistency and stability, ensuring that everything that already works well continues to work smoothly and reliably. With a few refinements, this app has the potential to be absolutely perfect.

good filters, lots of bugs

great selection of filters and sliders however prepare for a lot of bugs that wiped out all my edits in a recent update. just beware when downloading. other than that and the other minor bugs, the app is good. please fix these!!

Response from developer

Hey again! Thanks for the info. I do have to say these are very intense issues you are facing and not normal at all. There could be something wrong with your phone, potentially. We are working hard on releasing Phlow 2.0 so we would love for you to take it for a spin and then circle back here to update your review if everything is up to par. We work tirelessly for our Phlow fam (that includes you ;)) - In the meantime message us on IG @phlowapp or email us and let's troubleshoot some more! Support@phlowapp.com

Total ripoff

Charged for pro access, doesn’t allow login for pro access.

The best camera/photos app!

Thank you to the support team who got back to me! I was able to migrate my 1.0 photos easily and it’s all sorted. So appreciate it! This is the best camera/photo app I’ve experienced on an iPhone! My friends and I are happy it exists! Super thoughtful configuration. Thank you!

If support could read this, that would be awesome!

This app is absolutely amazing. Highly recommend. A few things - I’m having to recover my 1.0 photos every single time I go into the app now and the support button that says report a bug or issue, does not let you click on it. I hope this can get sorted! Really don’t want to lose my 1.0’s! Thanks!

Easy & Simple to use.

I’m a busy mom on the go, this is so simple and easy to use. I edit my photos very fast and save time. Much needed, I get compliments on these photos since I’ve been using this app. Love it!

Need lots of bugs to be fixed

Seems like a good idea. Presets looks like any other presets from other apps, nothing special. Film profiles not realistic and have nothing to do with real film like “Ektar” or “Portra” tonality. Noise looks good, and bloom is not bad. But my presets that I saved not working. I saved 3 and I can see them as presets, but they did not change anything. Thanks God it’s 7 days free trial version. Will not comeback to this app until bugs are fixed. I left review for Lumibee app, and thanks to developers they fixed the problems I was talking about. And will say Lumibee developers did by far better research study on how presets “looks like film” should look like. Use them most of the time, and I did donate money to them. So yeah, test your own app and please fix the bugs.

I’m losing a lot of videos

I want to like this app. I really love the functionality of it, the options when editing and the film filters. The problem is when I shoot videos in the app, if they’re more than 5 seconds long they don’t save. It’s incredibly frustrating

not reliable 😭

i just got back from a trip to iguaçu falls, where i took a boat ride and got soaked under a gigantic waterfall. i really thought i should use the iphone’s camera, but i decided to make it beautiful and stable with phlow instead. unfortunately, maybe because the video was too long, the app crashed and i lost one of the coolest videos from the trip.

the app also crashes during routine moments, like switching from photo to video mode.

i’ll keep using it for everyday moments—not adventurous or important ones—because the videos look so beautiful. but for special moments, when the memory matters most, i’ll stick to the iphone camera.

in case it’s helpful for your support team, i was using the app on an iphone 16 pro max.

UPDATED RESPONSE: Hey! Can you download 2.1.6? We fixed a lot of bugs and made video way more bulletproof. Would love to have you download and give it another shot. RESPONSE #1: Hey there! First off, so sorry you lost that video. We would love to help figure out what went wrong. We aren't experiencing any failures like this in our testing but we always strive for 100% reliability. Can you DM us on Instagram? @phlowapp or email us support@phlowapp.com and we can work through it together?

Amazing!

The best photo app there is! I love how you can edit your photo and press save and the original photo is edited, so easy! My photos have never looked better, I edit every single one using Phlow! The best range of filters out there 🤎📸

FINALLY

Finally! A natural looking/normal “camera” IN my phone!!!! Thank YOU Phlow! Best camera/editing app everrrr!!!!!

new update has ruined it for me

I loved this app & only use it to keep my photos edited the same now. the new update has been awful to use, so touchy, crashes all the time and none of the tools really make sense while using.
