### 1/5 — Low resolution output is a fatal flaw

*2017-12-06*

I can deal with the forced-square format, but will not let apps like this step on my hi-res images.  1.6mp output is a deal-killer.

Updated: following the developer's response, I reinstalled the app on both an iPhone 6 and a New iPad.  The Hi-resolution setting described is automatically enabled when installed, in fact the switch doesn't work, and can't be disabled.  The output is 1.6mp as stated previously.  I do have the developer's other app MonoVu and it delivers a 11.2mp output.  There may be a bug in this one.

**Developer response:** Thanks for using PhotoVu app.
You can save hi-res images after setting up.
Touch the left top icon(Three dots icon) and you can find "Save photos in high-res" option.

Thanks,

PhotoVu team

### 1/5 — Horrible. Does not open images

*2014-06-10*

Terrible. Does not open images constantly.  Sometimes it works. Usually it just sits there and refuses to open anything. 

Horribly broken.

### 2/5 — doesn't crop correctly

*2014-02-04*

the filters are awesome but 1) it'd be nice if it had the option to keep the full photo (rather than cropping) when you open a photo in the app. and 2) if you open a photo in the app an crop it to start adding a filter, it DOES NOT crop on the spot you want it to. Looks like a big that needs fixing.

App is awesome

### 5/5 — Fun & Elegant

*2013-02-28*

Fun, great change of pace for me to just shoot, pick 2 filers and upload. Results were artistic but still spontaneous. Made instant art with regular pictures. Worth the $.99 upgrade, for me.

### 5/5 — 킹왕짱

*2013-01-17*

필터가 이중으로 적용되는거 신선하네요. 카톡으로 바로 보낼 수 있는 점이 마음에 듭니다.
