I hurts that I must give this application only 2 stars, but without having the documentation of what the app’s developers have embedded or hidden within it to steal the intellectual or artistic properties from the artist that creates with the app, then I’m afraid that I won’t use it. It’s too bad too. It looks promising. It should be absolutely required of Apple, and all of the sellers on the App Store, to have everything clearly stated what becomes of any and all data taken from the users. Honesty. Integrity. It’s too bad there are those that must get over on others. It’s 2022 people. Time to evolve past that kind of behavior. ### 4/5 — App & iPad aren’t acronyms *2022-11-07, version 1.1* I’ve owned many editing apps for ages and it’s time for me to clearly understand what’s worth the learning curve, which have reasonable and which have insane rents, what apps can be purchased, not to mention the complete and total haze some developers put over any reason Pro is better. Reviews can be helpful but “Oh, lordy”, why is it sometimes a challenge to extract information? Case in point: in 2021 _ Mr. C _ wrote with a "plethora" of unnecessary "quotes" in addition to using a style for ACRONYMS, seemingly "failing" to understand that "app" is a "shorthand" version of application and iPad is the name for APPLE "tablets". Instead of explaining why "we" ought to buy this, he used "language" someone familiar with the app knows, not someone considering purchasing this over another similar one. That's not a particularly good way to sell us on this "tool". "Furthermore", to do your best work with APPLE "devices" one needs to comply with the =plan= of "Steve Jobs" to never use an article when referring to a "device". Therefore, never write or say "an" iPad or the iPhone. (That's true but does it really matter?) I apologize for the quotes & caps lock. Maybe I made a point about how reviews can be a little more useful. Someday I'll find out how to put a paragraph break in reviews and mine will be easier to read. ### 3/5 — Complicated! *2022-09-05, version 1.1* How the hell do you CROP a Layer? 😡 ### 2/5 — Overlap *2022-03-05, version 1.1* Needs to have more accurate overlay.

Деньги на ветер. Пожалела, что сразу оплатила. Стоит какая то блокировка, свои фото добавить и обработать нет возможности! Сколько скачивала и оплачивала приложений все открывается и работает. Первый раз нарвалась на мошенников! Буду жаловаться далее! Не рекомендую и не советую, будьте осторожны! ### 1/5 — Leider keine Möglichkeit die App mal gescheit zu testen *2020-05-13, version 1.1* Eine Testphase aus User Sicht sinvoll ### 1/5 — Not useful *2020-03-19, version 1.1* This is not a quality app ### 1/5 — Limitato anche meno ... *2019-09-17, version 1.1* Ci si fa poco ...vuole sempre L abbonamento!! ### 1/5 — ((( *2018-11-07* Беспонт (( всё платно ### 1/5 — Sneaky Charge *2018-10-11, version 1.1* So no mention of charging for free trial. Activated free trial and cancelled subscription as I decided it wasn’t for me and to avoid the yearly fee. Still got charged $2.79 No mention of that charge for “Free” trial. For shame! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Always *2022-04-24, version 1.1* Always to love this app ### 5/5 — Upgrade *2021-12-11, version 1.1* The app allows an instant upgrade for a moderate price. ### 5/5 — Critical Tool for Modern Art Collage *2021-09-20, version 1.1* As most of us all know, it’s only the outstanding APPS that inspire us to take the time to write up an APP review. After graduating art school, resources for a given project/series had to be created with a matched creativity in the budgeting department! And after haven explored the iPAD as key part of my process for 3+ years now, there’s only a select few APPS that comprise my art collage making “toolbox” — this APP being THE work-horse that’s kept me engaged and helped me to put out a half a dozen professional gallery expos. Once I unlocked the high quality export feature upon purchasing the “PRO” version, I’ve been nothing but satisfied and confident in what I produce here will print, post and project wonderfully! I’d definitely recommend you explore this APP — for me, some of my best work has been made thru me learning a new piece of equipment (be it a 35mm camera, 16mm bolex, or a new design software). This APP has done just that, and in the process turned me onto a new kind of digital collage process that I’ve been getting inspired by ever since — and my writing this is in the hope that you may find just that, as I have, so thanks for bearing with this extensive review! I’ll close in this one tip: when in the “Classic” mode of blending, swipe from the “Classic” > “Alpha” > “Normal” > all the way to the last two settings — “Lighten” & “Screen” — then use 1/2 images that is made all hi-con BLACK & WHITE. And 2/2 that is textural/color-blocks/etc, and upon blending the textural/color image will take the space of the entire black part of your other image. The result upon exporting/preview is an unmatched bit of inspiring collage process! It is so fantastic to create graphical and typography based images. Good luck, stay inspired all! ### 5/5 — Alyna Asya Nur *2021-02-10, version 1.1* Alyna Asya Nur ### 5/5 — Easy to use *2021-01-04, version 1.1* Jumped right in and started adding overlays to pics. Super easy to use and the results are perfect! ### 5/5 — Woww *2020-10-27, version 1.1* Zp-fi-ks ### 5/5 — Skvělá aplikace! *2020-09-19, version 1.1* Velmi zábavná a zadarmo :D nekonečné množství originálních fotek. Velmi doporučuji :D ### 5/5 — Really good and free! *2020-06-04, version 1.1* I really like this app. It’s useful and I love the fact there are different ways to blend photos. Perhaps in the future it might be able to blend more than two, because I have to keep saving the blended version and then blending it again. Also, is there a way to automatically get rid of the background on one so that when it blends the background doesn’t cover the other photo? ### 5/5 — Bang for ya buck! *2020-04-12, version 1.1* This is the best blending tool on the net! ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2019-11-10, version 1.1* Great app!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
