### 1/5 — No longer able to save

*2021-06-06, version 1.9.1*

Can you please advise why the videos won’t save into camera roll anymore? I’m not sure how else to contact.

### 5/5 — absolutely unparalleled!!!

*2021-05-25, version 1.9.1*

well done! friggin flawless! there is no compar

### 4/5 — More guidance please!

*2019-09-01, version 1.9.1*

I generally roll my eyes when people claim a(n) photo app is "useless"  because there's no manual because: 
- poke at it and things will happen. It won't break but you might figure something out
-the UI of most apps are very much alike; figure one, you're good for most
-ask the devs
-google it

I had this completely figured out after running through everything in bright sun today, getting videos and photos of wild sunflowers but when I got home some went through various/numerous effects. Now I have to spend time figuring out the nuances of that. I hope the basics aren't too challenging since I thought it was doing one thing at a time and didn't pay attention like that… like what? um… that's what I hope is obvious…

### 5/5 — You can do things

*2019-02-15, version 1.9.1*

I'm surprised this app hasn't gotten more attention than it has. Its node based programming allows complexity that no other camera fx app comes close to.

### 5/5 — Awesome app.

*2018-06-16, version 1.9.1*

Love the visual node based scripting, but I would love to be able to write plain GLSL code too. :)

### 1/5 — Update?

### 5/5 — Everything you need and more

This app is seriously everything. Best app and for free. Only downside is that it sometimes won't import video

### 5/5 — Yeah
