### 5/5 — Twenty years of making mosaics and this is my favorite app

*2025-09-28, version 4.3*

I’ve been fascinated with mosaics for decades and this app delivers. I have an album of about 3000 flower photos and the app allows me to share excellent mosaics with people in a matter of just a minute or two. I share some of my flower mosaics on a Facebook group: Mosaics by Robert.

### 4/5 — Fun but …

*2025-08-28, version 4.3*

This is a fun app. I’ve made and shared a few posters and postcards from the results. My only wish is that the Hidden album could also be included (requiring password or face verification as needed by iOS). It’s a pain to have to show/hide a bunch of photos.

### 4/5 — Good, but …

*2025-01-31, version 4.3*

It works well, but the slider for mosaic size is backward, and I’d like a little more diversity. I have over 27,000 photos to choose from, but there are too many duplicates. 

I should be able to order a print from the app, right? I don't see how. I suppose my images are probably good enough to print on my own. It's been 5 years since an update but it's working great.

### 5/5 — Very good app

*2024-07-13, version 4.3*

Very original idea, easy to use perfect.
Keep up the good work

### 4/5 — Great Tool

*2023-07-05, version 4.3*

Very easy to use, but I took off a start because there isn't an explanation of the options in the tool and you can only choose from a shared album insead of a folder on your desktop.  Otherwise I absolutely love this application.

### 2/5 — No Live Photos used & can not turn off screen shots

*2022-06-19, version 4.3*

Works well, but I use Live Photos all the time so my mosaic photos consist of screen shots & photos people have What’s Apped me I payed to upgrade, but can not turn off the screenshot photo album. Not great for me, but might work for others.

### 2/5 — The effect is so bad

*2021-09-07, version 4.3*

I’ve done it at moscially and then tried this, and it’s disappointing. Quality is terrible

### 1/5 — Does not work for me

*2021-01-20, version 4.3*

I’ve chosen hundreds of photos and it won’t create a mosaic for me. Paid for the upgrade. There are no directions to help guide. It says something to the effect of ‘cannot use image. Choose another image.’ 

I’ve added images with more colors in the to try abs close the gap in colors that may be missing. I don’t understand what the problem is, and there are no directions to tell me what is not working and why.

Disappointed.

I was hoping to create a special image as a gift.

### 3/5 — Shared album

*2020-11-22, version 4.3*

How do I have the app access the shared albums on my iPhone? Not being able to do that is a big problem!

### 1/5 — Crash, crash, crash

*2020-07-05, version 4.3*

Waste of 99p
