My go to photo edit app. ### 3/5 — Seriously annoying flaws! *2018-06-28, version 3.1.0* This is a fine app to resize photos, but it has a couple flaws that grow more and more irritating with every use: 1.) Whenever I open this app, a dialogue box pops up announcing what’s new in version 3.1.0, requiring me to tap “ok” before I can proceed. Every. Single. Time. Seriously, I need to be reminded of this when I use the app the second time…or the second…or the 500th time??? Come on, developer! 2.) The app almost always mis-reads photos’ rotational data. This is the ONLY app that requires me to rotate almost every new image to the correct orientation. Please correct this very basic flaw!!! ### 5/5 — Still my favorite photo editor *2018-04-13, version 3.1.0* It’s quick, crops, rotates, saves to smaller size file. After several years of use, it’s still the one I use first. ### 5/5 — Quick & Easy To Use *2018-04-06, version 3.1.0* Offers plenty of options and stickers for fast and simple photo edits...ready to post to your favorite social media sites and boards. Make your point with a personal touch. Love it! ### 4/5 — Clunky but dope *2018-04-01, version 3.1.0* Certain effects don't apply accurately when you hit 'apply.' A good work around is to screenshot when you've reached your desired intensity, then start a new piece and crop your screenshot. ### 5/5 — By far the best app 🙌🏻 *2018-03-04, version 3.1.0* This is the best app to edit your photos with🙌🏻 Very easy and awesome to use, unlike photoshop where you have to pay a monthly fee just to spice up your photos! ### 4/5 — Impressed... *2018-02-12, version 3.1.0* I am really enjoying this app so far. It could have more in the way of frames, but it is a very user friendly app with lots of options. ### 5/5 — Great App *2018-01-14, version 3.1.0* Works great. Very intuitive and easy to use. I recommend it. ### 4/5 — Great App! *2018-01-14* This app is easy to use and has so many editing features! It’s the only photo editing app I need! ### 5/5 — The best editing app I’ve used yet. *2017-12-17, version 3.1.0* I’ve tried dozens of apps trying to find one that comes even close to photoshop pro that I used to use on my windows computer and so far this one has most of the same tools and the ease of use. The only thing it’s missing is the ability to create a photo from a blank canvas. ### 5/5 — Very good app *2017-12-16* Very good ### 5/5 — Very good *2017-12-14* Very good snd easy to use ### 5/5 — Review *2017-12-12, version 3.1.0* Just got the photo app today and love all the extra features that makes my pics look awesome!!! ### 3/5 — Quite basic *2017-12-12, version 3.1.0* I have to admit this app is easy to use but it really ends there . There are other apps that have far more filters and many more choices to apply. Sorry guys the price doesn’t justify the outcome ### 5/5 — Fantastic! *2017-12-12, version 3.1.0* Just edited 2 images and am thrilled with the results. This app gives you control of your images in a way that literally transforms them from ordinary to spectacular. The black and white filter coupled with the Aura frame is a must-try. The interface is beautiful and uncluttered. This will be my go-to photo editing app from now on. ### 5/5 — Recommend *2017-12-05* Easy to use, always works. ### 4/5 — Miss Vignette Effect *2017-12-03, version 3.1.0* Almost perfect - I’d give it five stars if they’d put the vignetting effect back in. Other than that I love this ap! ### 5/5 — Damon *2017-11-11* Very easy to use app. I primarily use it to produce inverted versions of my images “negatives” especially Astrophotography. It is great for that. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Unable to add text *2018-02-06* Adding text only available in English. If type in other language such as Japanese or Chinese it will disappear automatically. ### 1/5 — Major lag now. *2016-07-19, version 3.0.0* This has been my go to photo editor for awhile, but update has caused everything from loading a pic to applying filters to lag (iPhone 6+). Hoping I have previous version I can roll back to on my computer. ### 1/5 — Lastest version *2016-06-28, version 3.0.0* Since the latest version has out this app is a piece of crap. Cant overlay, blend or enlarge pictures wanting to impose. Please fix fix fix. I used to love this app. I loved it so much that i went back to the iphone from samsung. How ever now i'm regreting the change ### 1/5 — Good app when it works *2016-03-01, version 3.0.0* This app is great, but only when it actually works. It's about a 50/50 chance of it actually working. I am currently locked out of this app. I have tried deleting and re-downloading and it still doesn't work. When I open the app it's just a blank screen with the version number at the top. It has been like this for about a month. ### 1/5 — Latest version does not work *2015-12-27* Every time I try and add a picture to edit it freezes. Was a great app up until the latest update. ### 1/5 — An ad for the frame app? In a paid app? *2014-09-12* I paid several dollars for this app to upgrade to the pro version, and don't appreciate an ad popping up when I open the app. Also don't appreciate the app crashing repeatedly. Some nice effects, but not outstanding. Rather than developing a separate frame app and bothering users of a pro app to fork out more money, I'd like the devs to offer a better selection of frames within the app. Love the Polaroid frame, but it cuts a big portion of the picture out! I think this app needs stability fixes and more refined features. And no ads! I'll change my rating when the app is given the attention we deserve for our money. ### 2/5 — Useless *2016-07-29* Every pic loads upside down or sideways and there's no rotate option. Will be deleting it now. ### 2/5 — Frames *2016-02-25, version 3.0.0* VERY disappointed that a lot of the frame options have been removed. I know that there are more "pattern"options but the original frame options aren't there! 😕 ### 2/5 — Decent but too many bugs *2012-03-01* Has some great effects . Is easy to use ... All sounds good so far . However be warned after you finish editing your photo and getting it just perfect . This App has a habit of not saving your photo and instead " encountering an error while attempting to save ." or just switching off when you try too apply certain filters . If you can live with those 2 drawbacks then spend your money . If not then look around for something else . Overall a decent App let down by being a touch unstable . ### 3/5 — My “go to” fixer *2019-07-17, version 3.1.0* An easy to use and reliable app. It incorporates the type of functions that I am usually looking for. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best Photo Editing App *2022-07-26, version 3.1.0* Loaded with all kinds of editing features to ensure a great photo every time. Edits, filters, frames, stickers, captions--its all here in one app. Highly recommend! ### 5/5 — My favorite photo app *2021-06-30, version 3.1.0* So many ways to enhance and creatively alter your images. ### 5/5 — Best Photo Editing App *2021-03-07, version 3.1.0* This is the best app for editing photos. The only photo app I actually keep in the dock on my iPad cause I use it almost daily. ### 5/5 — PicShop User friendly!! *2021-02-22, version 3.1.0* This program is so easy to use! I have been able toThe creative tools the program has to offer and my pictures are beautiful! We have had some of them Put into frames and on canvases. They came out beautifully and we are so pleased with this. Well worth the time and effort to download and use! ### 5/5 — Fantastic! *2020-12-20* Easy to use ### 5/5 — My favorite 😍❤️ *2020-11-25* Its my favourite app to edit pics for Instagram. ### 5/5 — Good app *2020-04-20* Very happy with this app ### 5/5 — Excellent *2019-06-03* One of the best photo editors in existence! ### 5/5 — I appreciate this app *2018-06-23, version 3.1.0* It's been my go-to image editing app for probably a few years now, it deserves and has earned a five star rating from me. Has plenty of tools for simple edits and probably more, but I mostly use it for mild pic edits or making quick memes and it has served its purpose well. Just buy the premium version like I did, you can't really go wrong here. ### 5/5 — Pics *2018-06-12* Great app to use, very good!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
