### 2/5 — TL;DR this app leads you to believe it’s free and then wants to charge you for continued use

*2019-05-31*

Let me start by saying I ADORE these fonts. I think they’re incredible and super cute. I love using them. This app is simple and easy to figure out, and I have been using it almost daily to apply adorable fonts on pictures for covers of songs. I was blissfully happy with the results, thinking I’d be able to use these wonderful fonts for my songs as long as I needed. 
So imagine my outrage when not TEN MINUTES AGO, while trying to put the title/name of artist on a photo, the app wouldn’t let me save the photo to my camera roll and presented me with a rude message: YOU HAVE NO MORE FREE SAVES. PLEASE PURCHASE TO CONTINUE* 
Devastated, I tried to save, again and again. But to no avail. The fonts were now beyond my reach, unless I wanted to pay for a) a lifetime subscription, b) a monthly subscription, or c) 20 saves, all of which were exorbitantly priced. 
Reader, I cried. All of the beautiful vintage fonts gone, in a click of a button, and with no warning at all.
You tend to get attached to the apps that you use, especially those used for artistic and creative purposes. Apps like PicsArt, VSCO, and Facetune tell you upfront that they have services that are only available with purchase. It’s incredibly misleading to not give your consumer that information, and honestly that is why I am writing this review (my first, by the way). My soul would not be so inflamed if I’d had the information that Vintage Fonts was free for only a temporary time. 
All of this to say, I am extremely disappointed in my final experience with this app. All other uses have been most satisfactory, and I wish I could continue using it to frame my small creations. Two stars for enchantingly lovely fonts but a dismal lack of communication. 

*not an exact quote but it was along those lines.

### 1/5 — Pésima

*2019-02-09*

No tiene muchas opciones, solo tiene cuatro filtros de lo más feos y nada más.

### 2/5 — Free Version Unsatisfactory

*2018-11-11*

I downloaded this not knowing it only allowed 10 designs before you have to pay a lot to keep using it. It’s $.99 for 20 more designs or $9.99/month. I thought this was going to be a great free app but now I’m deleting it to find something free that will work similarly.

### 2/5 — Size not correct

*2018-07-22*

Had to pay money to be able to download my design and the size was not even correct for Merch.

### 2/5 — Vintage

*2018-02-28*

So disappointing! You have access to 5 free backgrounds, after that you have to pay... mmm!

### 5/5 — Great for quick design!

*2017-10-02*

An awesome collection of attractive, commercial free fonts. Multiple distressed filters for a vintage look. I love the ability to change the placement and size of the image and then export it easily.

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2017-09-30*

This app is great and so helpful for me when I want to create a quick design for my tshirt business. I love the vintage look and all the different ways I can transform text.  Super easy to use. Great app!!

### 5/5 — Nice!

*2017-09-19*

Like the app. Cool fonts and helpful for making Amazon Merch designs. Wish we could purchase the complete fonts.

### 1/5 — Purchased credits are gone

*2017-08-30*

I purchased the 20 credits for 0.99 and it let me make a few designs. Then it said I was out of credits. There is no way to see how many credits I have left. There is no contact info in the app or on the webpage.

### 5/5 — Love this App!

*2017-07-13*

What a great app! 💥  It's perfect for creating designs for products on my phone  - I hope I can sell my designs as easily as I created them!! 👌🏼🎉
