◉ WHAT ARE PEOPLE SAYING

"This app is easy to operate and fun to use. I love all the different types of fonts and backgrounds available. Adding songs are as easy as moving the section to where you want and choosing if you want it to fade in and out or not. I have used this app frequently as it is good for birthday messages, farewells and everything else. I am glad i got this app and hoping it will get even better throughout the time i will have it. I have had many apps that do the same thing as this app but they didn't work well and the music was hard to select. This app is smooth, quick and easy. I recommend this app to all."

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2019-05-25*

By: the doctor❤️Amy🍍

Cool app and 4 iOS 6! Free! And good quality! Now I will criticize a little bit so you know the details 

1. You can't set then as wallpaper they zoom in. 
2. Less fonts and pics as they make it seem. 
3. That's it. 

If you are still you are a very smart person because hears a tip. READ WINGS OF FIRE! andHARRY POTTER!!!!! Oh! And sams club has 25$ iTunes gift cards no kidding so rating 5 stars is a good thing and P.S. any app that said "rate 5 stars and get premium content" is junk. Bye!

### 5/5 — Disappointed it no longer works

*2017-11-13*

I was sad to see this isn’t compatible with the latest iOS update. I truly utilized this app and was 100% satisfied with it for a good 3 years. 10/10

### 5/5 — MustHave App

*2017-05-23*

Besides the fact that you can't see the text as you type, it is definitely a great innovative and effective way to get creative with your pics!!

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2017-04-24, version 3.1.0*

While searching for an app that would do what this one does I didn't find any that would do it right. This one does exactly what at I needed and more. Add a pic, add some music and length to your liking and share. That's all I needed thanks guys. Great app

### 2/5 — Compatibility!!!

*2017-01-01*

I absolutely love this app. (I have it on iPad and iPod)The problem is when I opened it on my new phone I got a compatibility notification. It said the developer needs to update the app to be compatible or it will slow down my phone. Very disappointed! This is one of my favorite apps so it would be great if that kink could be fixed.

### 5/5 — Picplay

*2016-12-22*

Simple to use and enjoyable. I've only used it a few minutes after downloading and yet I could see the full potential of this app. Awesome

### 5/5 — Easy App

*2016-06-16*

I 'm the most technological impaired individual on this planet. This app makes my photos look As if I were a professional. Loads of effects, fonts and colors. Money well spent!  Thanks!

### 3/5 — Okay...needs more

*2016-04-13, version 3.1.0*

I just upgraded to this app. It's okay, but could use a few more features like:: more pictures, the ability to see your text as it is being entered, the ability to choose several font sizes when making a picture, and the ability to copy and paste text.

### 4/5 — Love this app but

*2016-02-08*

Hey did you know when you use the filters it makes your pics or background smaller? And then it saves to your camera roll that way?? Would love more fonts and backgrounds too but otherwise, love the app. Please help.
Thanks

### 4/5 — Need more music

*2016-01-25, version 3.1.0*

This is a great app, but I do feel like having to pay for pro version isn't completely worth it when you also have to pay for music. I think the app should allow one to get any music they wish to have downloaded.
