### 1/5 — This app is not free

*2021-03-10, version 1.3*

Do not download unless you want to pay a subscription. Misleading as in the App Store it’s free and no mention of a subscription. Since it is ultimately up to me. You won’t get a dime from me. Go with Adobe if you want to pay subscription. This here is bait and switch.

**Developer response:** It is up to you to decide whether or not you want to get a subscription, but we are always here to ensure that you get the best value for your money. We are sorry that the proposed subscription plans do not suit you. You can always check out our other apps or continue using the app on a free basis by exiting the offer screen.

### 1/5 — Do you not download

*2020-04-06, version 1.3*

It says nothing about having to pay

### 5/5 — Great

*2019-07-29, version 1.3*

Simple to use. Great

### 1/5 — Options

*2018-12-15, version 1.2*

There are few options unless you buy the “premium” filters and $4.99 a month for a few new filters don’t make it worth the investment.

### 5/5 — Great

*2018-12-09, version 1.2*

Really great..The filters are amazing and editing photos

**Developer response:** Thank you for choosing our app! We're always glad to help!

### 1/5 — Why would you stole money?

*2018-11-28, version 1.2*

I didn’t buy anything and today I saw I lost 2$ !! After checking my E-mail I realized this app tricked me !!

### 5/5 — Great photo app

*2018-11-27, version 1.2*

Very nice easy to use

**Developer response:** Thank you for your kind words! Very appreciated!

### 1/5 — Can not unsubscribe

*2018-11-19, version 1.2*

Not worth the paid subscription. I don’t even have a subscription option in my iPhone 8

### 3/5 — Pay for everything ????

*2018-11-11, version 1.2*

Why???? Can’t thier just be an appp

### 1/5 — Don’t download

*2018-11-06, version 1.2*

I got this app and it basically tricked me into purchasing it. I started noticing $2.00 per week being charged to my account. They find ways to make you agree to purchasing this app without being straight forward. They are will say they are being honest and make you aware of what you are signing up for, but nothing is clear. I just canceled my subscription. There are other photo editors out there that are better and FREE.

**Developer response:** The application does not initiate a payment unless you subscribe for Premium. If you had a free trial and haven’t canceled it, the account should have been charged only after the end of the trial period and then automatically according to the duration of your subscription plan. You can always cancel it through your device Settings - iTunes & App Store - Apple ID - View Apple ID - Subscriptions - Manage. Otherwise please contact Apple support directly.
