Good app

### 4/5 — Simple and Effective

*2019-02-06*

Does what is says. Wish it had better color adjustment for different skin tones.

### 3/5 — Here Is Your Review.

*2015-10-16*

Every time that you save a photo to your Camera Roll in this application, you are without miss presented with a nagging pop-up window asking you to review the application.  Well, here is your review.

Normally I would have given an app like this the default 1-star for habitually harassing me for a review.  But, in the case of this particular one I actually really do like and enjoy the gruesome effects that the app helps you to achieve.  I also like this developer's hair and mustache and hat applications as well.  Though, the hat one also nags for reviews, I cannot remember if the hair and mustache version does this or not at this moment.

Please take some advice, if an app you have created is good on its own merits you wouldn't have to beg and plead for customer reviews in such annoying and distasteful ways.  If an app is good it will receive those positive reviews and ratings all on its own.  So, please take that advice and remove these nagging pop-ups, thanks.

### 5/5 — Gruesome

*2015-04-19*

Graphics are almost too real!

### 4/5 — Fun...BUT,

*2014-09-21*

I don't understand why I cannot crop-out or eliminate the app-backround ad, or use a photo that I have cropped-out from my photos menu. This app is all about layering with other apps - and the fact that it takes away from the resolution of multiple generations of layering by including an unwanted background (particularly since I PAID for the app) is aggravating. I'll keep it, since I can work-around... but it IS annoying!

### 5/5 — Hi

*2014-09-06*

Super

### 5/5 — Great tool

*2013-01-09, version 2.2*

Easy to use well worth the price!

### 3/5 — Strange

*2012-12-18*

It was ok couldn't find some of the injuries though?

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2012-11-16*

Good for a laugh with mates, give yourself cuts and bruises with ease.

### 4/5 — Delete.

*2012-08-12, version 2.2*

It's Good But How Do You Delete A Cut Or Scar Etc...   ???

### 4/5 — Love it

*2012-07-01, version 2.0*

I love this app but could u add burns plz and some others but other than that the injures look 100% legit

### 1/5 — Waste

*2023-02-15*

When picture is selected it froze and when you finally manage to get one it looks so fake

### 1/5 — Piece of 💩

*2015-09-25, version 3.0*

Doesn't even open, crashes as soon as you pick an injury to paste

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2015-09-24*

This app is horrible! It crashes when I choose anything, except for bruises. Everything else crashes when I select any of the other categories. I hope they fix this soon.

### 1/5 — Poor

*2013-02-24, version 2.2*

Not realistic at all!

### 1/5 — Does not look real on photos of dark-skinned people! AT ALL!

*2012-10-26*

The bruises and injuries that you add to your face were cut from photos of WHITE people, so if you are dark-skinned, it doesn't match up AT ALL. There is an option to adjust the color, but it does NOT adjust from light skin to dark skin, it only adjusts from a scale of rainbow colors: pink, purple, green, blue,etc. How is that helpful? I am very disappointed.

### 1/5 — マジ

*2010-10-29*

気分が悪くなった

### 2/5 — Fake look

*2023-01-16*

I tried the bruises and looks quite fake. Is a shame

### 2/5 — Horrible app

*2022-10-19*

Nothing realistic about it

### 2/5 — Skin tones

*2019-04-01*

The bruises seem to have a halo around them. Unless you’re very white skin the bruises don’t work well on darker skins. It looks fake because there’s like a white halo around it

### 2/5 — It was awesome then they updated it!

*2015-04-20*

Graphics are realistic, but the new update took away most of the features options. My opinion I think they need to add more as is I give it only two stars for lack of options.

### 5/5 — Realistic

*2024-11-14*

My husband can be emotionally abusive. I used this to hit home how much damage is done with his words and actions, no different than punching me. Great app.

### 5/5 — Bloody good

*2017-08-28*

👍👍👍👍👍

### 5/5 — Very realistic!

*2017-03-21*

I was actually very surprised on how convincing the wounds look.
Used one on FB and pretty much everyone believed it was real.

### 5/5 — Scary

*2015-10-17*

This is not for the squeamish. Great fun for older people.

### 5/5 — 固まりすぎ

*2015-09-27*

たくさんの種類からアザ、傷、縫い跡等を選べるんだけど、選べるものが3個くらいしかない。他は選択すると落ちる。ほとんど、落ちます。改善してください。有料なのにこのクオリティ。（笑）
選択できるものはすごく出来がいいので惜しい。

### 5/5 — AWESOME APP

*2015-08-26, version 3.0*

Just saw a review on tv saying that it to realistic people are getting into trouble. I love this app totally realistic

### 5/5 — good for fan page editing

*2015-08-23*

I highly recommend this app if your goal is to make creepy edits. It's very realistic looking and totally worth the money. Even though I wish there were a few more options I would totally buy the app you won't regret it

### 5/5 — Hilarious

*2015-08-16*

App is great fun. Hilarious. But the photos do have to be relatively bright for it to work.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2015-06-12*

I'm in school for web design. I have to make a movie and this app totally helped me out.

### 5/5 — Great fun
