### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time and money

*2019-03-10*

Terrible. I don’t know what this guy was thinking...

### 1/5 — Terrible implementation

*2019-02-23*

Don’t buy this

### 1/5 — Não salva

*2018-11-18*

Quero o reembolso.... nem resposta da última postagem tive

### 1/5 — DO NOT BUY

*2018-08-22*

EXACTLY what Chris Calo said in his review I wish I'd read first. It should be illegal for you to market something that doesn't work.

### 1/5 — Poor

*2018-04-21*

Poor

### 1/5 — Don't purchase

*2017-06-20*

Was not able to straighten a photo, wish I could have tried it before I bought it.

### 1/5 — Not what you want

*2017-06-01*

This app is disappointing, especially considering it's not free. I thought it was something it wasn't, but you can't learn that until you pay for it. 🤷‍♂️

The right way to do perspective correction is to align each corner handle of the rectangular guide to the corresponding corner of something in the image that should be a perfect rectangle and then let the app perform the transformation that would make all edges of the rectangular guide perfectly vertical or horizontal. (AKA "source" mode perspective correction.)

This app, on the other hand, does the opposite: you move the guide handles and it stretches and distorts the image proportionally. (AKA "destination" mode.) This interaction style is far more difficult to get the alignment right, especially when the app doesn't provide a good reference grid for comparison while distorting things.

### 1/5 — Disappointment

*2016-07-23*

Really really not worth the money

### 1/5 — The markers change the boundaries, not select the picture!

*2015-11-25, version 1.0.1*

The markers change the wrong thing and are counterintuitive. It's changing the wrong thing!

### 1/5 — No grids

*2015-04-27, version 1.0.1*

The absence of any grids makes this an interesting but unuseful tool

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2015-04-20*

The result you get has a white border around it which you can't get rid of!! And there are no guide lines to help in corrections.  Worthless.

### 1/5 — Very pour app!!!!!

*2014-09-18, version 1.0*

no good!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — No video

*2024-09-15*

It lied said video and photo

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work at all

*2024-01-02*

On iPhone 13

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2021-04-30*

It seemed to work in the beginning, or I had white backgrounds. But it’s pointless if you still have background to deal with.

### 1/5 — Terrible!!

*2020-04-09*

This app isn’t worth the money.  Constantly crashes & doesn’t save the image. Perspective feature isn’t great at all.

### 1/5 — It does not save to images

*2019-10-23, version 1.0.1*

It does not save to images
Seek refund
App should be removed

### 1/5 — Really bad

*2019-08-01*

It’s hard to use: the way most people will want to use this is to straighten (make square) something that isn’t , but the interface doesn’t help you do this. 

It doesn’t save the image. All I managed to do was to email it to myself, but it emails a huge png file.

Deleted.

### 1/5 — No good

*2019-07-16*

A waste of 99p.

### 1/5 — Waste of Money. AVOID

*2019-07-13, version 1.0.1*

The app is poorly designed. Instead of setting the four points at the corners of the photo, then pressing a button to change the perspective, the app changes each point as soon as you set the point.  So the purpose of the app is defeated by sloppy programming. Very very frustrating. There is no undo key.

### 1/5 — This App is terrible.

*2019-06-30*

How is this app even allowed to be sold on here. It is terrible in every way. Not only is it useless to use, it does not save. The only way to save is to send it to myself. 

While it skews it also curves the straight edges. Worst buck I’ve spent on here and only review I’ve left.

### 1/5 — Non funktioning

*2019-06-23*

The app doesn’t work on iPhone XS (iOS 12.3.1).

### 5/5 — Exactly what it's supposed to do

*2015-01-16*

Well it isn't exactly a perspective change her, it's actually a keystone adjuster, you can make it do exactly what you want. It's more flexible than some of the other apps I've looked at. My only suggestion would be having some kind of auto perspective adjustment, such as swiping up or down or left or right and adjusting the picture automatically. As it is, you have to adjust each corner individually, and it takes a little trial and error to get it.  that's a minor thing, and the results I'm getting exactly what I wanted anyway.

### 4/5 — Simple and easy

*2018-09-10*

It works as advertised. Needs the ability to upload additional photos into the background so you can edit the main photo more proportionately. I needed to put a fake screen over a photo of a monitor but was unable to make the angle perfect because I could only eyeball it in Perspective.

### 4/5 — Excellent but needs updating for the modern day iPhone user

*2017-03-05*

The app really does it job but it's really needs guide lines to figure out if the photo is properly straight and definately should use Apple's Photo Extension or at least overwrite the current photo and not create a whole new image where it removes all the photo's data.

I hate it when apps do this because it's really not nice for the iPhone users who take pride in the Collections tab (like me!) in the photo app and like to keep all their photos in the right order with the correct date and time, location and camera/iPhone modal for memories sake. Another reason why I hate people sending me photos via WhatsApp which I would like to keep for myself.

I really would like to have this app at hand when I need it but definately not if it's going to create a whole new photo with no information at all and going to mess up my Collection tab, which may I say Apple made for a good reason, not for apps like this one and WhatsApp to mess up!

### 4/5 — performs as promised, but needs a grid reference guide

*2015-10-24*

This product does the job, but would be much improved with a reference grid. A simple 2D cross hatch would do the job.

### 3/5 — Crashes with iOS 13.5

*2020-05-27*

This was a great app that I used annually for our chalk painting festival. It was perfect for fixing the keystone issue when posting our street painting pics. It’s now crashing with the latest iOS update, so I’m looking for another app that’ll do the same thing as this one used to do.

### 3/5 — It's ok but...

*2015-01-08*

This app. doesn't really correct perspective so much as it distorts the image. 
There is very limited scope for adjustment. Movement is achieved by grabbing one of the four handles in the corners of the image and sliding them around within the boundaries of the image - you cannot move them outside of the image as in proper perspective software and there is no grid to line the image up on.
For the price it is okay but I think it should be called 'Photo Distort' rather than 'Photo Perspective'.

### 2/5 — Stopped working

*2019-10-09*

Worked well for a few photos. Then stopped working altogether. Si press “photos” and the app quits.

### 2/5 — Background reference needed

*2019-03-02*

I thought this would be the best for distorting an image like photoshop: to take two images and corner drag, align an image on screen as an example. Problem: you can't have a background reference to distort align corners, only color background.
