User Reviews

Polarr is loved for its strong filters and editing capabilities and remains a popular go-to, even in its free form. Users praise presets and flexibility, but frustration over ads, premium gating, and occasional stability and licensing issues temper the experience. Overall it’s a capable creative editor, though expect a premium-driven model and some bugs.

Pros

Excellent filters and robust editing tools; widely praised for image quality.
Free version is surprisingly capable, with paid features adding extra value but not required.
Long-time, loyal user base and acts as a go-to editing app for many creators.
Presets and saved styles offer consistency across edits.

Cons

Ads are pervasive and intrusive, including ads on saves and frequent promotions for premium features.
Many features are locked behind a subscription or premium license.
Stability issues: can’t load photos, exporting may crash or blackout, and editing can be limited to one photo at a time.
Billing/licensing problems, including lifetime licenses not honored and mixed customer support experiences.

I’m so happy to see that I am not the only one who is completely infuriated with the new update. Why would you completely change an entire app so that even experienced users are dumbfounded. I can’t for the life af me figure out the set up for the new way that overlays work, I cant even seem to apply an image in the style of a gradient like was able to do before. From 5 stars to 1,if could I’d give it none. You were a top rated app, why would you make such a move, that was dumber than dumb, at least have the courtesy to roll it out slowly. Not all at once. I had not known how much more useful this app was over my previous go to until the last few months. But once I really played around with it, it soon became my newest go to. I wish I had never updated. Also why is there not an easier way to delete my custom overlays, y’all didn’t bother to reconcile that situation. Who ever made this decision should be fired, or given a second chance to fix this mess that now takes up room on my phone. If something is not done soon, I will be requesting an entire refund 🤦🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️ this is not the app I paid for. Idk what this is. The app doesn’t work super great at least not for me. I have it on the iPad and iPhone, it gets stuck sometimes, removes effects and changes from other editing apps at times, the brush tool still isn’t back. It’s a bit bulky. It goes up to a 3.5 from the 1 after the change since some things were reintroduced. But yeah
