I mean WOW! If there was a 10 star rating, I'd apply that! ⭐️This app has sooooooo many different effects, ways to manipulate the effects and is very simple to use! Do not waste your space, time & money on any other effects app... I've tried several others & they did not come close to measuring up to this one! They would darken the original, have a small selection and the distortion was just terrible. ⭐️ This app has everything I've ever wanted and more! It's a must go-to for creating unique and beautiful effects! What ever your expectations are- this app goes above and beyond with what it offers! ⭐️This app will just blow your mind! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ### 5/5 — Love it *2016-09-25, version 1.0.5* I really enjoy this app. I got the free version years ago, and remember buying the full version soon after. I did delete it, but have recently rediscovered it and am so happy I did. It's awesome!! When I first got it, I didn't understand or care to understand how to play with it. I also didn't realize what I could do with it. All of the possibilities!! They're endless!!! I love how you are able to layer the different effects onto one picture. As many as you care to do!! I would most definitely recommend this to anyone who likes to make fun, beautiful, and aw inspiring pictures. 👍🏼👍🏼 up ### 5/5 — wonderful *2016-09-16* i love it, it makes my photos so beautify and so easy ### 5/5 — Love it!! *2016-08-13* I've had loads of fun with this app! I've created some brilliant life like photos like volcanoes exploding and double rainbows in the sky. I highly recommend it. ### 5/5 — Great Stuff! *2016-08-03* Terrific app! ### 5/5 — Tick tock now that's a clock *2016-07-23* First class fun app, Very pleased, thanks To the makers! ### 5/5 — Great for creative photo editing! *2016-03-02* I love this app and it's so easy to use ❤️❤️❤️ ### 5/5 — Nice *2016-02-27* I like this app very much, I like all the effects you can add to any picture you want. The effects look good especially when you combined them well with other filters and what not. Just need to upgrade the interface a little but other than that this app is cool and very easy to use. 5🌟 ### 5/5 — Wedding photographer *2016-01-17* I have many apps for photography but this is the one I always keep coming back to. ### 5/5 — Great App! *2015-10-26* I love this app! It has tons of effects for your pics. I'm looking forward to any upgrades they do. ### 5/5 — GREAT EFFECTS! *2015-10-03* This is the coolest app to bring your pictures to life! You can even edit the effects & it's so easy! This is a MUST HAVE if you want to brighten up your pictures. ### 5/5 — Astoundingly good! *2015-07-16* Turns your pictures into magical works of art in seconds. So easy to use :) Love it love it love it! ### 5/5 — Cool app *2015-06-14* Except they reduced price right after I bought it! Oh well love the different effects can do to pics. ### 4/5 — After my first use asked to write a review *2015-05-17* Gave it 4 stars because it is good to use an app for a bit before writing an accurate review. Having said that my first experience was pleasant. Easy to use! ### 4/5 — Incredible Effects!! *2015-05-09* I absolutely recommend this app. I found the LITE version and fell in love so I bought PRO. It is definitely worth the dollar. The ONLY THING (which you really need to fix) is that any time I try to make my own effect from my camera roll, it crashes!! This is a bug I would NOT consider minor. ### 5/5 — amazing app！paid for pro *2015-05-03* excellent！ ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Can’t layer photos, same as free version *2018-06-23* That’s the main reason I bought this app, a long time ago the FREE version was perfect until an update killed that function, so I finally got the nerve to fish out money for this and what do you know? It’s just as glitchy as the free version, please FIX the camera roll photo layering... that was your best function.... I’ll fix the rating once you fix your app.... ### 1/5 — Space fx *2013-08-25* I find this a total waste of. Money if you. Can't bring your pic to the front ### 1/5 — Annoying *2013-08-12* Ads still pop up even though I paid for it. Very annoying: DO NOT BUY! ### 1/5 — Crap! *2012-10-02* I got suckered by other reviews! Must be there friends lol. If its SPACE effects wheres the planets, moons or galaxies? It's just some light effects thats put on your photo, u cant even resize it or place it how you want. & what about the new effects? Can't see nothing special. Resizing & placing the effects is a basic necessity with these kind of effect apps, sorry for the negativity developers but I feel I've been done. Sort it out guys, I'm sure your capable. ### 3/5 — Fun features *2014-06-16* It's a fun app! Adds something a little extra to already special moments! ### 3/5 — Fun! *2014-01-21* It's fun and god for edits! I just think they should get more modern stuff to edit with. Thanks! ### 3/5 — Decent but.. *2013-01-13* It takes time to create a finished picture using this app.. There are lots of details that can be tweaked and that is a good thing, however, the real shame about this app is the fact that when you save a picture the app shrinks the finished product! I dont like the fact that the app shrinks the final product! I have made some good pictures with this app but it is let down at the final hurdle. ### 3/5 — Nice, but annoying pop-ups *2012-12-15* *UPDATED REVIEW* Adding to my previous review below, and knocking my rating down to three stars. After paying for the app I then relented and wrote a review because it has pop-ups constantly asking you to review it. However, I find that even *after* paying *and* reviewing, I'm still getting several pop-ups every time I use the app, asking for ratings. I stand by what I said about the interface and effects being good, but the number of pop-ups is ridiculous. ------------------------ The interface is great and the effects clean and easy to manipulate. You can get a variety of effects from each image if you take the time to learn what all the functions do. Really annoying being interrupted by pop-up requests for ratings and other apps though - particularly in a paid app ### 4/5 — Review *2015-10-28* Fun ### 4/5 — Fix crash *2015-08-21* I'll gladly give this app a full 5 stars if you fix the crash when adding the image from your own library ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Very Cool *2022-08-23* The easiest way to make awesome additions to any photo the layering effect is so smooth Thank you ### 5/5 — Fiery cats & glowing babies *2022-07-12* Nothing better than taking a picture of our cat or toddler, then applying glowing or elemental effects to turn everything magic. ### 5/5 — Beautiful *2022-04-22* I was looking for lab FX this exceeds and is so cool really like it peace ### 5/5 — This app it’s amazing *2021-11-26* It just a little bit of time and creativity a create a single picture easy money ### 5/5 — I missed this app *2019-12-30, version 1.0.5* I use to have this app back in the day, it’s simple but extremely effective if you are the creative type. You can only use what they give you and you can’t create your own effect, but there is like 100 effects that you can throw togeather with out any known limit, so you can make thousands of combinations. I found this app was best used with other filter apps. Even by it self you can do just about anything, I love making my self shoot Kamahamahas with it. Totally worth the time. ### 5/5 — Ace!!! *2019-08-18* I absolutely love this app! it’s so much fun & turn your photos into neon funkiness imaginative art in seconds 💫👌 ### 5/5 — Want post to my fb *2019-04-19* It says that it is in development mode still like idk wha that means anyone can help me out here ### 5/5 — SO GOOD *2019-02-18* I am obsessed with this app!! I had the free version (Space Paint), and was SO bummed when I couldn’t update and use it. I looked for this for over a year, and finding it was the best thing ever!! Such a good and user friendly app. Best one out there in my option. I love using it for my cosplay pictures to add an extra level of magic to my pictures. Love this app!! ### 5/5 — One of the best *2018-06-19* This app is one of the best special effects apps for pics. Sadly nothing new has been added for years now ### 5/5 — Amazing *2017-06-23* Amazing effects when I saw all the extra effects for 0.99 I thought this was amazing and it's so easy to use great app! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
