### 2/5 — Please update

*2017-10-11, version 4.0.1*

The resolution of the pics are low 1200x1600.  Please increase resolution, otherwise a great app

### 1/5 — Awful

*2017-06-05, version 4.0.1*

Photo doesn't look same color after see in album also it stuck on application I couldn't see it in my photo list whatever I do. It opens with app. I want my money back!

### 5/5 — Nice filters

*2016-02-11, version 4.0.1*

I like it so far. Just got it today so got to explore some more

### 1/5 — Help

*2015-10-22, version 4.0.1*

In camera mode photo never get to camera roll. 
In video mode you end up with a burst of photos in camera roll. 
Have no idea how the post card works. Have to put a lot of info in. 
iPhone 6 Plus IOS 9.1.

### 3/5 — Would be 5 stars but...

*2014-09-24, version 3.3.2*

A glitch forces me to go to the App Store and download the add on filters I had to buy EVERY time I use them. And it crashes sporadically. Please fix. Otherwise a great app.

### 2/5 — Effects Are Nice, But...

*2012-10-24, version 2.1*

I love the effects and how PV utilizes High Definition (amazing how many apps don't!). PV works great with stills.

However, I find it almost completely useless for filming.  Any movement causes extreme image stuttering. I compared it to other apps, thinking it was perhaps my iPad, but thankfully it wasn't. The other apps handled movement very well.

I contacted the developer, in hopes that he will respond soon, and that I can change my rating!

### 5/5 — HD worth it

*2012-10-02, version 2.1*

I had the free version and bought this one. It's worth the money, very cool filters, good functions like self timer, great app!

### 1/5 — Lousy

*2012-10-01, version 2.0*

This app crashes Everytime I open it. Don't waste your money.

### 5/5 — Restart phone

*2012-10-01, version 2.0*

The paid version will crash at first but if u restart your phone it will work after the restart on iPhone 4S IOS 6 doesn't have a lot of effects about 10 I think is all hope they come out with more but the ones it does have works really good

### 1/5 — Doesn't work!

*2012-09-29, version 2.0*

Just downloaded for the 2nd time and it just crashes every time it opens......there goes a dollar!
