### 1/5 — Crashes immediately

*2022-04-18*

Tried reinstalling but it just CRASHOLAS!

### 5/5 — RIP a Favorite App

*2021-02-13*

App now crashes at launch on iOS 14. 
I loved this app and used it often. Please developer revive PicSweep

### 3/5 — Much needed but incomplete

*2020-07-15*

This app could be really useful if it allowed two things:

- be able to choose aspect ratio (story or post)
- be able to choose one way or two way sweep (right now it forces two way)

In its current state, it works, but too expensive at $3.99.

### 1/5 — Worst app, waste of money!

*2018-08-14*

Don’t even bother, can’t do anything versatile.

**Developer response:** Hi JT - Did you see an error message when trying to create the sweeping video?  The app is meant to do one thing and one thing only.  Thanks.
