Review summary

Many reviews complain the app won’t open or access the device gallery, blocking use. When it runs, users praise realistic effects and express positive sentiments (nice/great/awesome). A common frustration is heavy advertising and permission prompts, plus glitches that disrupt editing. Some users also note an inability to edit already-taken photos. Overall, the app shows potential but reliability and UX problems—especially startup and gallery access—prevent broad satisfaction.
