### 1/5 — What a waste!

*2021-12-30, version 2.2*

App didn’t work immediately upon download! Paid for a subscription and got NOTHING! The video editor never even came up! But I can make collages. Not at all what I paid for 🤬😡

### 1/5 — I paid $9 for the subscription and I can still only have 30 pictures

*2021-10-18, version 2.2*

Do not purchase in this app.

### 5/5 — Video editor

*2021-06-25, version 2.2*

Free features are limited but loads up to 30 photos and good 👍

### 1/5 — In-app game

*2021-03-06, version 2.1*

While making my collage a game ad popped up. It never gave an option to exit, so was forced to play. Then led to the Ap store to download it.  I never could return to making my collage. And now way to get past the game-ad. Frustrated.

### 4/5 — EZ   Very nice*****

*2021-03-05, version 2.1*

Ok

### 1/5 — Worst app

*2020-12-30, version 2.0*

Tried several times making a video but it disappears abruptly

### 1/5 — Not that good

*2020-12-18, version 2.0*

I got the app and did two  slideshows and then I tried it three more times for this other one and it didn’t work and it shut me out of the app I am so disappointed I thought this was gonna be a good app😭😭😭😭

### 1/5 — Not able to add music

*2020-12-02, version 2.0*

It gives you the option to add music from your library but then doesn’t allow you to add it

### 1/5 — Are you kidding me?

*2020-11-30, version 2.0*

You have no clue how annoying this app is. Not worth the time. Everything I try to do won’t load and an ad pops up EVERY 3 SECONDS and it is driving me crazy. To add music from your album you just tap the plus but when I do it doesn’t actually tap it and no music will go in except for the dumb cheesy music they have. Not worth the time. I’m deleting.

### 1/5 — Adds won’t clear

*2020-11-27, version 2.0*

The adds put the x in the corner so you can’t clear the add. Every page requires an add. You cant buy an add free experience. When you try to pick a song from I tunes it doesn’t transfer to the app. 1 star is too many.
