I paid for an expensive full package, one time purchase, and now the app is requiring payment for all the filters again. I have had it for over 3 years now, I cannot remember a single time when I achieved the desired effects with this app. Not paying again, not recommending. ### 1/5 — 🇷🇺 *2021-12-05* Почему я должен сначала заплатил потом попробовать !? ### 4/5 — Almost perfect *2021-10-30, version 4.1* Great app and pretty UI. Only complaint I have is every time I open it I have to restore my purchase in order to use anything other than the starter filters. I purchased it already, what does it not remember this? ### 1/5 — Too many pop up *2021-10-24, version 4.1* I know you guys need to make money. However, the user also should be able to use this app without excessive payment done. The spending should be optional. So what I reccomend is that you should put out a certain free filther. Then, leave the very special one for purchase. This way the user can use this app and the spending is optional. I believe this would create a much more enjoyable and the excessive pop up is a big turn down for a lot of people. ### 1/5 — Lame *2021-10-03, version 4.1* App doesn’t even work and the filters are cheesy ### 1/5 — Trash *2021-09-25, version 4.1* The only thing that works is the fog smoke filters. App turned to straight trash. Don’t buy. ### 1/5 — Отстой *2021-09-18* Фильтры по 400₽ бред ### 1/5 — Scam *2021-09-08, version 4.1* Doesn’t work ### 1/5 — Download just to look at samples. Makes no sense. *2021-08-27, version 4.1* The app doesn’t let you try out one single picture, yours or sample one, you just have to purchase it and blindly believe that it will look good. So stupid. Don’t they think if I try it out for a day or a few photos, I might love it and pay even more for it? Very poor business technique. ### 1/5 — It’s the ol switch and bait *2021-07-21, version 4.1* I’m not purchasing anything off a so called free app. ### 1/5 — Not free. *2021-07-13, version 4.1* It’s free to download but once you download it you literally can’t use anything unless you pay four dollars to unlock each filter. Waste of time. ### 1/5 — Nothing to see *2021-06-30, version 4.1* Outdated and very ordinary filters. Not a great app at all. ### 1/5 — Полный отстой *2021-06-06* Полная ерунда вот по каким причинам: 1 - Приложение заброшено и давно не обновлялось, поэтому на старом уровне 2 - Эффектов мало 3 - Нельзя редактировать видео 4 - Самое главное - ВСЕ платное и что самое тупое, нельзя посмотреть эффекты без покупки, хотя во всех приложениях можно применять все платные эффекты до покупки, чтобы знать нужно тебе это или нет, а тут бесплатно только стандартные Настройки яркости и контраста, вообще бред, либо покупка кота в мешке, один фильтр 400 рублей, да и без редактора видео, в общем не приложение, а трата денег и времени впустую ### 1/5 — Zu teuer für das bisschen *2021-03-11* Viel zu wenige Filter. Am ärgerlichsten ist, dass man die Effekte nicht frei bewegen kann und auch nicht farblich anpassen. Macht in der Form wenig Sinn. Widerruf eingeleitet... ### 1/5 — Not good *2021-02-28, version 4.1* Absolute basic filters for free and everything else is £3.99. Uninstalled and not impressed. ### 1/5 — Misleading and worthless app *2021-02-17, version 4.1* I tried to get a refund from Apple but they said no even though half the app doesn’t even function! First, the filters are boring overlays that you can’t even tweak, there are flares that you can’t move around at all, colours that just look stupid. Their example photos are misleading as they have already been manipulated before adding their filters. The hashtag generator does not work. The app crashes immediately when you click on most categories. Shame on Apple for being greedy and not returning my money for these crap filters and shame on these greedy douchebags for lying to people Also. App hasn’t been updated in over two years!! ### 1/5 — Lixo *2021-02-01* Não baixem tudo pago ### 1/5 — nbbhg *2021-01-18, version 4.1* hdbfb ### 1/5 — One giant rip off pay wall *2020-12-26, version 4.1* Just a poor money making rip off app, anything that the user wants to try is behind a paywall ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Horrible *2026-04-17, version 4.1* This app does not work. It is non functional. It freezes after every step so that I have to exit the app and re-open it. Every. Time. Also, you cannot get a refund from Apple or contact the company. So yeah. You are stuck buying something and getting nothing. ### 1/5 — Dont waste time or money *2025-03-18, version 4.1* App was recommended by someone but is really just lacking content for the price (nothing interesting in the free content but from the ads in app i thought the premium content would be a tad better. Just some basic hue switch and textures u can find urself online and apply to ur pics with canva or photopea… Just spent 25$ on purely nothing worth more than 2$… ### 1/5 — Not worth it *2024-10-24, version 4.1* Honestly upset I spent 20 on this and the filters aren’t even that great. Stuff you could do easily in Lightroom. I want my money back! ### 1/5 — Worst app ever! *2023-10-09, version 4.1* You can even use one filter they try to charge you 3/4$ to buy just one filter absolute garbage ### 1/5 — USELESS *2023-08-13, version 4.1* The “filters” are so useless, the $4 they charge you for them feels like a scam 👎🏻👎🏻 ### 1/5 — Bait & Switch *2023-06-13, version 4.1* The photos in the advertisement are only available at a premium ### 1/5 — No samples at all to try? *2022-11-16, version 4.1* Could not even test it, asking for cash right away ### 1/5 — Garbage *2022-10-09, version 4.1* This app is total garbage. The free filters are ugly and the paid ones too expensive. ### 1/5 — Nur mit In-App-Käufen nutzbar *2022-01-30* Die psychedelischen Filter kosten leider alle Geld ### 1/5 — Scam *2022-01-13, version 4.1* I bought a pack of filters then hours later it acted as if I never purchased them and it wanted me to buy them AGAIN ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great app! <3 *2024-03-29, version 4.1* Exactly what I was looking for & thought I wouldn’t find & more! Not to mention no unnecessary sign-up, subscription or watermarks! I immediately bought the Duotone Madness & Acid Trip style packs & for a one-time purchase of only $3.99 each I couldn’t be happier. Even if I couldn’t or didn’t wanna buy anything there are still a couple nice free styles I would’ve used & still might use such as Acid Trip A, Duotone C & especially Duotone B. (Tips for users: if you’re browsing through a style pack [such as starter filters] & want to switch to another pack without applying any effects from the one you’re on, there isn’t a back button so just select the 1st effect that has a dash & applies no effect & hit “SELECT” to browse between packs. I also saw some people saying something about needing to “restore purchases” to access style packs you bought because of a bug but that might be fixed.) There are currently 7 style packs: 20 Duotone Madness (love), 24 Acid Trip (love), 20 Old Photo Collection (would probably love), 15 Color Fog (nice), 10 Light Leaks (not for me but cool), 24 Carbon Black Collection (not for me), & 10 Bokeh (not for me). Maybe some more styles in the future such as thermal & variations of thermal/ night vision? Also “Lite” versions of style packs; you could even do $1.99, $2.99, & $3.99 etc. Saw a lot of people’s complaints rooted in the fact that they would like more free styles to choose from; I know that would make a huge difference how people feel about this app. There are some really cool effects & styles people make on Pinterest that the developers could potentially model some effects after or get inspiration from. You could also Google “all aesthetics” & a Wikipedia with a list of many different aesthetics comes up & you could also find inspiration there. Anyways, thank you for this app, please don’t change any of the great things about it like no watermarks & everything; I appreciate you & I can’t wait to start making art with it <3 - surrender* *(@2000surrender on Pinterest & Instagram; surrender on Soundcloud!) ### 5/5 — Great app *2019-12-01, version 4.1* But just need to fix the bug in settings. When you go to the hashtags, it closes out and doesn’t let you see the hashtags. ### 5/5 — Fresh take on the photo filters genre *2017-11-26* I’m enjoying playing with the filters and textures. It’s great that you can layer filters but it’s weird you have to unlock that option within the option section. ### 5/5 — Good *2017-10-10, version 3.2* Good but every cost like hell ### 5/5 — awesome *2017-09-16* cool way to spice your photos up. paid content seems high but honestly I use them constantly. do yourself a favor and unlock the full package which includes future updates too ### 5/5 — Cool app! *2017-09-12, version 3.2* A pretty cool app for photos! I'm just getting started and is fun to play around with! ### 5/5 — AMAZINGGG *2017-08-31, version 3.2* stunning app ### 5/5 — Star's review *2017-08-30, version 3.2* Fantastic app, different and has great in app purchases!! ### 5/5 — Great app over all! *2017-08-30, version 3.2* Really neat app! Just wish there more options for those who hadn't purchased the full app. ### 5/5 — TinaMoe *2017-08-29* I love it but I'd wish there were more options free - but I will definitely when I get paid by the rest of it because I really do like it a lot --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
