### 5/5 — Super amazing

*2012-09-26, version 1.5*

Really fun to play with. There are so many possibilities, you can play for hours!

### 5/5 — Amazing for glitch work

*2012-09-24, version 1.5*

Yessiree!

### 5/5 — Absolutely love this!

*2012-09-13, version 1.5*

I've never felt compelled to write a review for an app until after using this for about an hour. At first this app seems quite simple (although fun), but after you play with it a but more, and discover the different possibilities there are after touching the screen a few times, the app becomes much more deep. 

Basic controls are as fallows:
Bottom left "recycle" button switches camera into front mode, next to that is a random effects generator, then there's a slider that controls the effects opacity, next to that a record/shutter button, and then finally a video/photo toggle. 

Turn this on, point it at the nearest object and or texture and watch/control it's psychedelic chaos. The screen caps provided don't at all do this app justice.  Well done developers, well done. :)

### 5/5 — highPhone

*2012-06-05, version 1.5*

Bizarre live image twisty app thing. Like a cross between those late '70s video special effects, pressing your eyeballs and a dose of your favourite tryptaminergic molecule.
The slider goes from subtle coloration to brainfry. Two finger pinching and spinning sets the colour blobs/contours flying all over the place. Three finger swipes slowly change the colours ( or hit the slatted circle at the bottom to randomly jump to new settings).
...and you can take snapshots or movies of the whole thing to show your friends (if they're into that sort of thing).

A strange and enjoyable app!

### 5/5 — Instant Nam-Jun Paik style video art!

*2012-02-09, version 1.3*

Fantastic. Rather opaque in operation.

### 5/5 — Truly wonderful fx!

*2012-02-09, version 1.3*

Best app I got all year. Odd, loveable and necessary. Remember black micro dots at 300 mikes? Like that.

### 5/5 — Great

*2011-11-05, version 1.3*

I love this weird camera app. It has the best effects for films and stills. Totally amazing thank you!

### 5/5 — (!)

*2011-10-27, version 1.3*

### 5/5 — Strange Kaleidoscope

*2011-10-25*

An acid-trip of an application.  A strange, organic, evolving sort of kaleidoscope.  I've been playing around with it a lot, I'm not sure if I'm using it right, but  then I'm not sure there's a right way to use it.  Very, very, cool.

### 5/5 — Super cool

*2011-09-19, version 1.0.0*

Addictive fun. Much deeper than it first appears.

### 3/5 — Looks cool but can't save.

*2012-10-04, version 1.5*

I love the effects but any image I attempt to save is just blank. Any fixes?

### 4/5 — Awesome

*2025-04-03, version 2.0.4*

The best. Except when clicking the gallery button to open a photo/video, it just opens my photos gallery.. I can’t actually import anything through the app… but that’s the one and only thing keeping this app from crushing all other glitch fx apps. Please fix it ASAP!

### 4/5 — You can do video!

*2011-11-07, version 1.3*

This is very unusual and trippy. No instructions, I just realized u can record video! Developers- you guys are onto something cool! Please make it a little clearer to for us interested users!

### 4/5 — trippin...

*2011-10-31, version 1.3*

i'd really appreciate more options, but then again i'm all out of lsd

### 4/5 — Interesting

*2011-10-06, version 1.1.0*

The app could use some instructions, or at least a better description of its capabilities.

### 5/5 — Great simulation

*2025-10-31, version 2.0.4*

This is a great app for pharmacists because it accurately simulates hallucinations and it is very cool and easy to use

### 5/5 — Lo-Fi Chic, Unusual Interface, Rad App Just Needs Update

*2017-05-15, version 1.5*

Apple throws the needs-update-asap! warning when launched. Please update when you get a chance, I love the app & all its low-bit-depth charm 🙂👍

### 5/5 — Psychedelically Superlative!

*2017-01-23, version 1.5*

I very rarely write reviews and it is an even less likely event for me to give something 5 stars, this app rocks! Simple to use, so far it appears that with some creativity the visual options are limitless, and you can create videos of any length, wow! So far I have only used it for music videos and it is beyond what I was even searching for, its that cool. So first off, download the app, secondly (and be warned), it's addictive and you may need to bump up your cell phone storage data plan to make room for what's to come.

### 5/5 — Genial

*2012-10-14, version 1.5*
