Customer Reviews

Excellent!

I’ve tried several free photo editing apps, but this app and Pixlr and both are awesome applications for photo editing! It’s nothing fancy, and I really didn’t want anything fancy (because with fancy comes cost). I just wanted something that I could use to touch up my images, and this application does exactly that!

One person who wrote a review before me said the app crashed alot, I don’t know what all the app is doing to him so I can’t speak for him, but I know that I am not experiencing the same problems. Something I’ve come across in my own development of apps is that an app works differently on every computer (even if it’s running the same system), so it may give problems for one user but not for another.

Anyway, great app!

great photo editing app so far

This app does not have a lot of filters & does not have a good ‘blur' effect (which was one big reason I needed a photo editing app) BUT it’s ok... I still give it 5 stars because all the other tools that come with this app are AWSOME! You can really transform an average photo into a true work of art with all the effects & abundance of editing tools they provide you with! I have had a lot of fun with this app so far and I have only had it for a day! I feel like a professional editing my photographs with finesse & beauty! You have so many different looks to choose from .. I don’t regret getting this app at all, Despite the limited filter selection & excluded ‘blur’ tool, I love it!

THIS APP IS GREAT FOR MAC USERS

I’ve had this app on my mac for about a week now and I can safely say that I’m in love. I haven’t yet tried the mobile version, but I’m sure it’s just as great. Since there’s two versions (the free & pro), you’re obviously not getting the full effect, but what they do allow you to use in the free version is pretty great. I plan on buying the full version when I have the extra money to spend on it.
