### 3/5 — PDF feature doesn’t work.

*2025-10-12*

Won’t generate a PDF.  When it’s clicked on it just closes the app.  Disappointing for a paid app.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-05-09*

I couldn’t set height, only width.
I couldn’t pull in a jpg file.

It was very unsatisfactory.

### 5/5 — PhotoQuilt app

*2025-02-12*

I love the fact that all the guesswork has been done for me.  The only thing that I am finding trouble with is working out some of the sizing, I’m not very tech savvy.  Apart from that I love it.

### 1/5 — Only does square pieces

*2024-01-04*

The app was terribly underwhelming. The quilt design only does square pieces and does not use HSTs to make simple designs clearer. Without the use of HSTs complex photos end up looking very pixelated unless you plan to create a giant quilt. Seeking refund.

### 1/5 — Nobody wants to cut 12,000 pieces

*2023-06-06*

Not impressed at all. This program needs more options of making size of squares, size of blanket, better instruction, editing colors, etc.  I really thought this would be a good one to use.  Need a refund!

### 5/5 — Quilters Rejoice

*2022-03-31*

I love importing my photo and designing a beautiful quilt in thirty minutes give or take 15 minutes.  

If you set your parameters and import your photo the computer takes over as you putz around and refine the pattern.  Save the designed quilt and  open it in Quiltography and you can figure out your yards and off you go to your fabric stash or the fabric store!

### 2/5 — Too simple

*2020-05-06*

This is too simple to be very useful.  It doesn’t allow you to adjust the size of the photo once it is downloaded to the app so you have to continually guesstimate when editing outside of the app for size.  Also only does squares and doesn’t have options to add triangles for better clarity.  So much could be done with this app if there was a bit more added to it.  Likely won’t be useful for me so a waste of money.

### 1/5 — I am furious!

*2019-11-03*

After doing my homework, I purchased this app. I can’t select a photo to use in the app! Every time I try, the app crashes, and my phone locks! I can’t believe I spent money on this. What a waste.

### 4/5 — Functional

*2019-03-16*

Just what I need. Simple app design yet functional enough to do what’s needed.

### 1/5 — Not what I wanted

*2018-08-08*

I bought a bundle and this app was in it. This was not the app I wanted in the bundle but is the only one still available. This is a horrible app to use.
