### 5/5 — Beautiful

*2026-06-09, version 1.6.4*

I love this app it is so fun and so cool

### 1/5 — Only opens photos in black and white.

*2022-09-25, version 1.6.4*

Only opens photos in black and white. I want to use the app to edit the original color photo. So far I am unimpressed.

### 1/5 — Nothing happened

*2022-07-04, version 1.6.4*

Nothing happened

### 1/5 — Not user friendly and impossible to actually get it to do what you want

*2022-06-20, version 1.6.4*

I would NEVER recommend this to anyone.

### 1/5 — Keep scrolling

*2021-04-26, version 1.6.2*

Awful horrible horrible app DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME

### 1/5 — 1 star

*2020-06-25, version 1.6.2*

It doesn't load and as soon as I download it it asked me to give it a review which is stupid bc I haven’t even played it

### 1/5 — Hate

*2020-06-18, version 1.6.2*

Hate , asking rate before opening it 
It didn't work 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😤😳😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤

### 1/5 — Find another app...

*2020-05-19, version 1.6.2*

I’ve been using this app a lot in the past but now they decided to make it paid and you can’t even use it without premium tools anymore (even with ads)... Shame! I will find another one.

### 1/5 — Bleh

*2020-04-11, version 1.6.2*

The app won’t even let me open it 🤮

### 1/5 — Not Free at All

*2020-02-06, version 1.5.1*

The app is NOT free. Do NOT believe the reviews saying it is! Immediately when I downloaded it, a thing popped up to get a free trial, purchase the full thing, or continue with limited tools. I chose to continue with limited tools, because if the reviews were true and the app gives you access to all the tools you need completely free, that should be enough. NOPE! It’s even worse than apps that only give you a limited amount of tools with the free version because with this app, you click to do something, it takes you to choose your photo, once you pick a photo, a screen pops up saying you need to purchase the app or use the 3 day trial. UNINSTALLED.  

When I was reading reviews and noticed how the top reviews all mentioned how they love how this app, unlike most, actually allows you to use all the tools completely free. I thought it was kind of weird how they all said that same thing in one way or another, but also figured if an app that said it was free and actually gave you access to all the tools free, most people would mention that since it’s so rare. So I gave it a try. But those reviews were complete lies. Not sure if the people were paid to say it, got the app for free for saying it, the developers wrote them, etc. but it’s definitely NOT free since you all you can do is choose a photo to edit, but if you actually want to do anything with that photo, you need the 3 day free trial or purchase the app.
