I always appreciate this app and all the depth that it offers the photography that I do!

I have been using this app for sometime. Very easy to use, with fantastic editing of you photos to b/w. You can't go wrong with this app! Highly recommend it!

This is one of the few apps I have purchased for photo editing instead of just using the free version because especially the black and white/sepia/single and duotone color editing is best in class. The presets are so good I rarely have to manually edit when I use this app. Great textural and other light flare options also. Even if you are not looking for B&W editing, this feature stack has fantastic optionality. Easy to use and understand UI, easy to import export and refer back to old edits, & less time spent to get the exact look you desire.
