User Reviews

Users praise the app for its broad effects and custom presets and its on-the-go usability. Repeated drawbacks include saving/library bugs, a very limited free tier, a UI that needs refinement, and compatibility issues with older devices/OS versions along with mixed support responsiveness. Overall, strong creative potential exists, but reliability and ongoing maintenance are common concerns.
Pros
  • Large variety of effects/filters, including unique options not found elsewhere
  • Ability to create and save custom presets for quick edits
  • Easy to use and portable for on-the-go editing
Cons
  • Bugs that prevent saving or accessing the photo library; can render the app unusable
  • Free version is very limited with many features greyed out (e.g., no mirror/crop)
  • User interface feels unfinished and can be non-intuitive; needs polishing
  • Compatibility/update issues on older devices/OS versions and inconsistent developer responsiveness

really the best photo editing app on App Store for those not versed in Adobe Photoshop or on the go, have used for years, what happened? Did the developer discontinue as photos no longer save? Come back!

My favorite photo editing app is back, with numerous filters and effects many you won’t find anywhere else it’s the only photo editing app you will ever need and with the ability to create your own custom effect presets it couldn’t be faster or easier to use i highly recommend this app.

It used to be my go to app. Bought a new iPad and it will no longer access my picture library or allow me to save a sample picture. Deleted and reinstalled to no avail. Sent an email requesting assistance three days ago and have yet to hear back. Developer confirmed there’s a problem, though gave no indication a resolution was forthcoming. Developer contacted me the telling me problem has been corrected and requesting I change my review. Deleted and reinstalled but the same problem remains, so I dropped the rating to zero stars (well, I tried to but was denied) and will delete the app for good. There are plenty of great photo apps out there. Don’t waste your time with this developer.
