User Reviews

Users praise LensFlare Optical Effects for being intuitive and powerful, with realistic lens flare and sunburst effects and multiple editable layers. It’s valued across Mac and iPad workflows. However, crashes and instability are the most frequent complaints, especially on startup or when loading/editing photos. Additional drawbacks include export quality degradation, limited ability to reposition flares, and device/UI compatibility issues on newer devices. Some updates have removed favorite flares or introduced bugs, prompting requests to restore older presets and to save layers for reuse.
Pros
  • Intuitive and easy to use
  • Powerful with multiple layers for manipulation
  • Realistic lens flare and sunburst effects that enhance photos
  • Cross-device workflow (works on Mac and iPad)

Cons
  • Frequent crashes and instability, especially at startup or when loading/editing photos
  • Export quality degrades the image (loss of detail/blur) after export
  • Difficulty repositioning/moving flares on some devices/UI issues
  • Device compatibility/UI problems on newer devices (e.g., iPhone X notch)
  • Update-related bugs or removal of favorite flares/features
