Bad Update

I’ve been using this app regularly for years, but this new update is sooo frustrating. The sliding scale doesn’t pick up when you’re changing the levels on your picture. Ie filter 0-100%. Brutal. Please just revert back— it didn’t need to be changed up!

You guys get 1 Star, Because I Bought this app a couple Of years Ago, and Now you guys Updated it and When I downloaded the Update, It doesn’t GIVE ME the New Filters, I have to subscribe for something I BOUGHT ALREADY 😒😒

UI Needs fixing

This app is pathetic. You press back button and it completely deletes your edits. This app needs a UI update by a professional designer and then it might get a good review. Otherwise you keep losing progress with no backups.

You can’t even zoom in to see what you’re doing
