### 1/5 — Worst app i ever bought

*2022-10-06*

Takes few seconds for the shutter to release = blurry picture

No face recognition at all. And no real setting or options.

Does not work with remote shutter. This supposed to be a selfie app… 

What a scam!

### 5/5 — Great app!!

*2017-04-06*

This app is very well designed and easy to use. I've taken some great photos using this app and people ask if they are professionally done.. I would highly recommend this app, it's definitely worth the price!
