User reviews

Polarr Photo Editor is praised for its rich feature set and professional-grade editing tools available for free, making it suitable for casual and advanced users. It supports account sharing across devices and works well on ChromeOS. However, multiple users report bugs, lack of updates, and poor customer support. Many features are locked behind a subscription, complicating access for free users. Users also find the interface sometimes unintuitive, and recent updates have introduced ads and layout changes that detract from user experience.

Available for both ChromeOS and mobile platforms with account sharing capability, providing convenience.

User-friendly interface although some users found it takes time to learn due to advanced features.

Cons

The app has become buggy and sometimes fails to open or function properly, especially on Chrome and ChromeOS platforms.
Many users report lack of updates since 2019 and discontinued support, leading to unresolved issues and poor customer service.
Limited free version with many features locked behind a subscription and confusing access to features.
Some users find the interface counterintuitive or difficult, especially for basic tasks like cropping and moving images.
Recent updates introduced ads and interface changes that minimized the app's usability and user experience.

Used to use Photo Impact and PhotoScape but both were Windows based and gave up Windows over 20 years ago, have been looking for a more complete Imaging app that does more rather than just little bits of this and that, this is the one FINALLY that is a true Image editing program...FINALLY....THANKS!
