### 3/5 — Thank you for helping me mame a low quality video lol

*2024-08-15, version 5.0*

thanks

### 5/5 — Geniale App🎉

*2023-04-16*

Wenn es jetzt noch möglich wäre, ein Update für die Videoauflösung (zur Zeit 480x480 Pixel) auf wenigstens 1080p zu bekommen, stünde dem Gestalterglück nichts mehr im Wege☺️

### 5/5 — Close

*2022-11-18, version 4.0*

Would be 5 stars, but when I edit videos from camera roll with this, it exports with a weird blue blank space before the video (cutting some of it out?).
It generally doesn’t seem to save well at all with video media. A bit disappointing.

Otherwise a flawless tool for single images.

### 5/5 — Einfach nur geil

*2022-08-14*

Selbst die kostenlose Version ist schon super, um die Entwickler zu unterstützen hab ich trotzdem pro gekauft was für 2,99 wirklich erschwinglich ist. Vielen Dank für diese tolle App!

### 5/5 — I LOVE the retro appeal of this app

*2022-04-23, version 3.9*

I LOVE the retro appeal of this app and although I don’t use it with every picture I take sometimes you just absolutely need the effects this app can deliver. It’s a simple yet over the top value for artistic effects.

### 4/5 — More dithering…

*2022-04-16, version 3.9*

Please add more dithering mode like bayer 8x

### 5/5 — A Fantastic App

*2021-11-17, version 3.9*

Definitely worth trying out and seeing for yourself. Has high potential for creative fun

### 5/5 — Macht viel Spaß !

*2021-11-14*

Eine wirklich gelungene App für Pixelart, nur einen Rückgängig-Button würde ich mir noch wünschen. :)

### 5/5 — Great

*2021-09-19, version 3.9*

Managed to make pictures of my gorgeous wife in pixel form. Sexily amazing

### 5/5 — Great For High Detail Game Pixel Art!

*2021-08-17, version 3.9*

This Is Amazing. Now I Don’t have to Spend hours Making A Single Piece of Art. Thank You!

### 5/5 — Mt bomm

*2021-07-28*

Mto bommm

**Developer response:** Obrigado pela sua avaliação!

### 5/5 — Great value!

*2021-04-17, version 3.9*

This app is amazing even in the free version but the very reasonable price of $3 gives you so many customization options and effects it’s totally a great value.  The best part is that not only is it fun to play with but it actually could be used for creative projects!  I really enjoy this app!

### 5/5 — Gracias

*2021-03-16, version 3.8*

Quisiera tener la oportunidad de crear

### 5/5 — Great for Minecraft!

*2021-02-22, version 3.8*

I was looking for an app to convert fotos to less pixels so I can recreate them in Minecraft and found this and works great!

### 3/5 — Good app.  It it could be more enticing if

*2021-01-05, version 3.8*

It offered more free examples of there effects like the PAINNT app offers PAINNT is the best app of its kind. And they change and update every day. It also has a real community shared section. Bring this app up to that level as a benchmark,then you would truly be a contender.

### 4/5 — All good except one thing

*2020-12-21, version 3.8*

I would like to suggest a no style option for when I take or insert a photo, because I would like to see the the original colors from the photo i took or chose.

### 1/5 — GARBAGE

*2023-05-21, version 4.0*

Useless until you pay up. Deleted.

### 1/5 — Updated and now I can’t load photos

*2023-03-18, version 4.0*

Something happened with this update and now the app is broken.

### 1/5 — Updated and now I can’t load photos

*2022-11-30, version 4.0*

Something happened with this update and now the app is broken.

### 1/5 — Do not waste your time

*2022-02-25, version 3.9*

In the middle editing a picture a casino app took over my screen .  It never got around to editing my pictures .

### 1/5 — No

*2020-09-07, version 3.6*

Pay wall. Ad ridden

### 1/5 — In app kauf undurchsichtig

*2020-07-26*

Vorsicht!
Beim in app kaufen wird nicht angegeben, was es kostet!
Ich habe die app gelölscht.

**Developer response:** The price is displayed right above the Purchase button. What could have happened is that your internet connection was not very good at that moment and the price could not be loaded. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you.

### 1/5 — o verdadeiro lixão da mãe lucinda

*2020-07-25*

eles te dão 6 opções de filtros horríveis, nada a ver com com os do anúncio do app, o restante tem q pagar , mesmo assim eles não mostram como são os filtros pagos. O editor de fotos q veio no meu celular me da um resultado melhor q o do app

### 1/5 — Macht keine Photos

*2020-06-12*

Absolut nutzlos, da die App keine Photos aufnimmt.

Edit: Trotz Antwort des Entwicklers, ich möchte doch den mittleren Button drücken, macht die App immer noch keine Photos. 
Edit: All permissions are granted. When I press the middle button, nothing happens. I tested the app on my iPhone in the mean time, there it works. But on my iPad Pro I cannot shoot any photos or record any videos.

Definitely a good idea, but I do not pay for an app which only runs on my nonprefferred device.

**Developer response:** We have just fixed this bug on the most recent version (3.6).

### 1/5 — No-go

*2020-05-28*

Eine nutzlose App und das “usability” no-go, wieder eine App für Müll!

### 1/5 — Verstehe ich nicht

*2020-05-14*

Die „Kamera“ scheint keine Fotos zu machen, sondern zeigt nur eine Vorschau. Ich fand auch keine Möglichkeit, die Auflösung des Pixeleffekts bzw. der Aufnahme einzustellen. Dann kam plötzlich Werbung und ich hab's deinstalliert.

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2024-06-04, version 5.0*

Within the first moments of playing around with this app I was so excited!  It’s exactly what I was looking for!  I love pixel art and was hoping to find an app that would allow me to capture with pixel effects.  This is well worth the lifetime purchase ($20 at time of this review).  Worth every penny!

### 5/5 — Gekauft!

Nette Spielerei, tolle Filter gekauft definitiv 👍

### 5/5 — Previews top!

### 5/5 — The Best

*2023-10-18, version 4.5*

of its kind! Truly recommended. 5 stars ⭐️, 10/10, A+!

### 5/5 — Love this App

*2023-10-04, version 4.0*

I love mucking around with my photos to get different effects. The app graphics remind me of the very first Macs I worked on. SE I think. £3.99 paid. I think it’s fair. If I was buying this in a shop as a program (like in the olden days. Miss doing that, it was part of the fun), anyway I digress, I would think it was a good price. Maybe you could expand it to possibly print out numbered guides for diamond painting or painting by numbers?
