## Review summary

RNI Flashback is loved for its playful, random film-like edits and straightforward use, delivering unique retro looks quickly. However, users repeatedly report persistence and reliability issues: saved looks don’t carry across photos, exports can fail or stall, and the app can crash. UI/device compatibility, especially on iPhone X, also shows problems. Overall a strong creative concept with notable gaps in reliability and cross-photo preservation.

### Pros

- Randomized film-style looks delivered through a simple, low-pressure interface that avoids decision paralysis.
- Easy to use with quick results, making it great for experimentation.
- Authentic, grainy retro aesthetics that many users feel resemble real film.
- Fun and inspiring to explore unique edits rather than relying on presets.

### Cons

- Favorites/presets do not persist between images, making it hard to reuse a look across a shoot.
- Saving/exporting is flaky: some photos won’t save to camera roll, and rendering can spin or stall.
- Stability issues: the app can crash or require reinstallation to function again.
- UI/screen compatibility problems on iPhone X (no full-screen support and awkward scaling).
