Now it asks for Full photo access and refuses to open if you don’t comply. Then, it keeps asking you to choose the Pro Editor, $39/yr. So yeah. Irritated. ### 4/5 — You succumbed to AI *2026-08-24, version 7.3* I have had this app reliably not change on me for at least 8 years and I was so grateful for how simple it was to use, no frills familiar interface for quick changes and simple collage edits etc and now … now … it’s just like the rest. Nooooooooo bring back the old controls. Not every app needs stupid AI! ### 4/5 — Love the ai *2026-08-18, version 7.3* I really wish it was free though :( ### 4/5 — Pretty good app! 😁 *2026-08-16, version 7.3* It was a good app in all, but it would have been 5 stars if you didn’t have to pay for unlimited AI editing. Still a good app, but might prefer something that you don’t have to spend money on. ### 4/5 — Problem. Need help. *2026-08-14, version 7.3* I enjoyed the editor very much until I encountered a problem. When I try to add text to a photo, the end result is unacceptable. When I hit done/apply and check the edited photo, the text I added has wrong fonts and space between words is too big. Any help would be greatly appreciated. ### 2/5 — Long time user leaving *2026-08-14, version 7.3* Was good until they removed the blemish tool feature. It was the best part. Too many in app purchases now. ### 5/5 — photo editor *2026-08-12, version 7.3* it is free and a way better version of editing your photos on camera ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-08-11, version 7.3* I’ve been using this app to sell my wood burning online. The editing is good, good options, overall a very useful app ### 5/5 — Photo Editor Review *2026-08-11, version 7.3* Amazing Editing Tools! ### 5/5 — Great App *2026-08-09, version 7.3* Excellent easy to use ### 5/5 — Perfect *2026-08-08, version 7.3* Easy use ✔️✔️✔️ ### 5/5 — Worth every penny *2026-08-08, version 7.3* I absolutely love this app improved my ability to create cards. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Paid purchases *2026-08-28, version 7.3.1* Used to be able to do a lot with this app, now everything cost money. ### 1/5 — Poor *2026-08-23, version 7.3* Won’t let type over photo ### 1/5 — New Update Removed Features/Makes You Pay Now *2026-08-22, version 7.3* Blemish feature was removed and it’s been free since I’ve had this app downloaded since 2013-2014. It was free and now want to no longer be original and be just like FaceTune & charge for extra features. Deleted and lost a long time user. ### 1/5 — What happened? It used to be amazing! *2026-08-16, version 7.3* This use to be an amazing app! I had it for years! Then suddenly all the features are gone and you have to pay. OK fine. I’ve enjoyed the app so I thought I’d pay. None of the features that were there before or even in the paid version. You’re paying for something so basic!! they literally broke something that didn’t need fixed. So disappointing. I barely use it anymore. ### 1/5 — Serious DOWN-GRADE *2026-08-12, version 7.3* I've used this app for Several Years (pro for a couple of them when I could, but mostly the low cost or free). It was easy to use, quick, and so convenient! I LOVED IT, and recommended it to everyone I met who was new to photography editing (or afraid of messing up their phone)! Then came the 2026 DOWN-GRADE. ☹️ Now, unless I pay for Pro, (which I can't afford on disability), I can't do much more than try to fit the "subject" of a photo into a free "white outline." No adjustment of the size, no reducing the lines to thin (or nothing). That's All Folks. Now I will change to another app. And I would rather pay someone else what I can, than use this hollowed-out shell. I'm so disappointed in this group! ### 1/5 — Not user friendly *2026-08-11, version 7.3* Horrible ### 1/5 — What happened? *2026-08-09, version 7.3* I subscribed to pro but I was shocked to find the old functions are gone. As a result I cancelled the subscription...what a shame ### 1/5 — Ai can’t edit small photos *2026-08-08, version 7.3* Not worth the money ### 1/5 — User *2026-08-01, version 7.3* Tried using this app to remove two people that were in the lower corner of a group shot. It was a snap but the AI altered the entire shot. Faces in the group became ill defined and others, outright distorted. The faces I was trying to remove were clearly foreground of the group and isolated. I tried several prompts but each on failed to change the outcome. Cancelled my subscription ### 1/5 — another update another app spoilt *2026-07-31, version 7.3* after the latest update this app which I have used for years with no trouble is completely ruined.The obscession with 'AI' is ruining so many things.Thanks a lot ! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-08-22, version 7.3* I love it it has so many different features and makes my pics so much cooler if u do it crectly😝 ### 5/5 — Easy to work *2026-08-22, version 7.3* I find it easy to edit pictures for the not so techy people as in myself ### 5/5 — Simple, beginner friendly *2026-08-20, version 7.3* This editing app is very simple and isn’t locked behind ads or anything. Just a useful app for editing photos, adding text to stuff to make memes and faking your parents signature on stuff! (Please don’t do that last one) ### 5/5 — Photo Editor Review- *2026-08-17, version 7.3* Great Photo App One Of The Tops ### 5/5 — AWESOME APP! *2026-08-17, version 7.3* EXCELLENT! ### 5/5 — Go to app *2026-08-15, version 7.3* This has been my GoTo app for many years. It’s a great place to get quick edits on photos and make them look much better quickly ### 5/5 — Dope! *2026-08-14, version 7.3* Should’ve been called Photo Editor+. Pay me for that later. 😎 ### 5/5 — Great *2026-08-13, version 7.3* Love the app thank u ### 5/5 — Best ever *2026-08-13, version 7.3* I wish I could give a ten star this is the best editing app ever😃😁❤️❤️ ### 5/5 — Excelente *2026-08-13, version 7.3* Buena edición --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
