Okay

My photos look great in the app when I edit them but when I download them and then look at them in my camera roll they look super high contrast and just not good.

Greatest editing app in all of existence!!!

I have followed Zack and Helen since 2017, so I know they are trusted travelers/editors. When they came out with the app, I knew that it’s a must try. Not only do I love to support them, but they have blown me out of proportion of how well this app has been made. Zack works tirelessly on tweaks and improvements all the time, and his work in the app shows for it. I highly recommend this app to everybody I know, and I get so many compliments and asked which camera I use, and I just say it’s Phlow ♥️ thank you guys for your hard work!

Great app

Makes me feel like a professional photographer!

Has a good bit of bugs

I wish the bugs would fix!! Really great other than that. Missed alot of good photos because it randomly stops working or doesnt save pictures

No contact info, charged twice

Terrible still trying to find a way to make contact

I already had a subscription :(

And pay $48/year. The app then made it seem like I didn’t have this and I had to sign up again and pay >$55/yr. I looked at subscriptions and saw I had TWO. Cancelled both and deleted the app

My go to for pictures

I love the app and it’s my go to for pictures! The quality of pictures and video is beyond other apps. However, there have been soo many bugs with the app recently. It seems like there have been tremendously more since I got an iPhone 17 pro max. I keep everything on auto update so it’s not a version issue. The app has sooo much potential once it’s working consistently!

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!
