## Review summary

Many users appreciate the app's fast rendering and usefulness for stencil art. However, a common issue is the inability to upload or load photos due to permission or file handling bugs, causing frustration. The app places obstructive watermarks on images and lacks advanced editing features like contrast adjustment. It has not been updated since 2017, causing compatibility and functionality problems for many. Users suggest fixes for permissions but hope for official updates to resolve long-standing bugs.

### Pros

- Fast image rendering when the app works
- Helpful for stencil drawing and artistic projects
- No ads appeared for at least some users
- Simple and useful interface for converting images to stencils
- Has been reliable for multiple uses before issues began

### Cons

- App often cannot load or upload photos, with many users getting "unable to load image" errors
- App fails to request or properly handle storage and media permissions, causing usage issues
- Watermark placement interferes with image usability and cannot be removed
- Lack of features such as adjustable contrast limits image detailing
- No updates or bug fixes since May 2017, leading to unresolved bugs and incompatibility with some devices
