### 3/5 — Vinny

*2024-08-30*

Great for cropping photos. That is a necessary tool.

### 4/5 — Love This!

*2023-08-19, version 3.1.0*

Best app for enhancing photos.

### 4/5 — Perfect, but needs an update visually

*2022-11-29, version 3.1.0*

Its exactly what I’m looking for, I wanted the focus exit option. It was perfect! But it visually looks outdated, need an update visually to make the design (buttons, etc) look more modern.

### 4/5 — Fun little photo editor

*2021-05-31, version 3.1.0*

Worth the extra price for the full set of features. Just make sure to load in a photo from your device and allow permissions to access the photo library before attempting to save your first edit. If you do not, the app will not seek to ask your permission at the point of saving leaving you unable to export your work.

### 4/5 — So easy!

*2020-11-02, version 3.1.0*

I heaved a sigh of relief to find this uncomplicated app. Would have liked more colour options for the frames.

### 4/5 — Wow Photoriffic

*2020-07-26, version 3.1.0*

Can’t get over how awsum my photos look!! Once you get the hang of it it’s awsum

### 4/5 — Amazing!

*2020-07-05, version 3.1.0*

I have been wanting to try photoshop and this was a funny, fun and easy way to do it! Although you have to pay for the other filters and photoshop features there is still a lot!
:)

### 4/5 — Amazing but missing something

*2020-06-07, version 3.1.0*

This app is soooo good. If u are reading this I tell you. Download it! But it is disappointing how you can't get everything and only the edits. I really think this app should just let us have what we need as well as extras, borders and filters instead of it being locked 🔒. If the app did that I can insure you that it will be awesome 👏🏼. I could feel free and have options 
Besides this problem you should totally download this app

### 2/5 — Disappointing

*2020-01-16, version 3.1.0*

Before using this app, I read the reviews. So I was optimistic about it working at least decently! However, I was sorely mistaken! The “blemish” tool is awful! If I enlarge it, it turns the blemish black! If it’s smaller, it does nothing! Medium setting... nope! It only makes the blemish blurry, which is just as noticeable as the blemish. There are not many actual editing options. I understand this app is free, & I am a pretty understanding person, however, this is crazy! I would much rather use a free trial to try the app out & pay for it..rather than get awful results/wast my time. If you offer an app free, you should at least make the tools you offer, quality!! If you cannot offer quality tools, just offer the frames & other decor. Honestly, some of the tools were useless in my opinion. I have never written a negative review unless it truly did not work! If you zoom, you cannot move over. Even if it were semi-useful, I would give a positive one. I just do not think they should advertise this as a photo edit app. It should be advertised as a photo “decor” app. Sorry guys...I tried...it just did not work for me.          :( 
Maybe I will try again another day, because I feel bad writing bad reviews unless I truly give it a fair shot (more than once).

### 4/5 — Awesome but...

*2019-06-09, version 3.1.0*

This is a very good app but, a lot of stuff costs money. If nothing costed money then it is the BEST editing app ever!

### 5/5 — Love the app!

*2019-04-18, version 3.1.0*

Straight forward, simple to use, wonderful results!

### 5/5 — The best photo editing app

*2019-04-02, version 3.1.0*

The best app to edit your photos.

### 5/5 — Incredible options

*2019-01-18, version 3.1.0*

Love this app! Can reverse photos and other simple tools . Not overwhelming and easy to save & transfer photos.  This app does the work for me

### 5/5 — Easy, powerful, fun

*2018-11-11, version 3.1.0*

App is great.  It’s easy to use and it’s loaded with cool options.  Makes me smile every time I open it!

### 4/5 — Super Photo Editing App!

*2018-08-10, version 3.1.0*

If you add the ability to put varying width and color straight lines with and without arrow heads, then it will be 5.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-07-21, version 3.1.0*

This app used to be a Godsend to make fun pictures. But all of a sudden it started crashing randomly anytime I’d try and use it. What a waste!

### 1/5 — No longer exporting pics

*2024-03-18, version 3.1.0*

This app doesn’t seem to be supported anymore. It won’t export pics I’ve worked on.

### 1/5 — NO thanks

*2020-07-22, version 3.1.0*

What IT WAS not good enough

### 1/5 — 5-star if working

*2019-02-22, version 3.1.0*

This app is great but something happened now the filter edits don’t have color bar option. So useless till fixed.

### 1/5 — Hated it, deleted it IMMEDIATELY

*2018-12-03, version 3.1.0*

Here’s the reason why I deleted it.
First of all it didn’t let me edit videos, not the worst problem. But when I decided okay I’ll just do a photo, I tried editing it but almost everything costs money!!!!! I was extremely upset! I guess the makers don’t know that we can just not pay for it and get a new app that costs nothing to edit the same as this app does. I’m disappointed because I really thought this app would work. 😭😭

### 1/5 — What's happened? This is not free

*2018-05-07, version 3.1.0*

Well, I will be deleting this app. After using it for quite a while now, they have decided to charge for any filters. Goodbye xx

### 1/5 — No video?

*2018-04-23, version 3.1.0*

Preview in App Store says photos and video. Don’t see any video option.

### 1/5 — Was good until iOS updated

*2017-10-23, version 2.92.1*

I loved this app. It was so simple to use. But no updates in over 3 years and it’s now incompatible with the newest iOS update. The sad part is I paid for the extras and now I can’t use it at all :(

### 1/5 — Crashes every time now

*2017-06-13, version 2.92.1*

This used to be one of my favorite apps, but now it crashes every single time I try to access a photo from my gallery, so it is useless.

### 1/5 — No good

*2017-04-16, version 2.92.1*

App crashes soon as gallery is opened!

I really enjoy this app, I use it all the time.
