  1. 4/5Great App...But...

    Great App! You can easily blur and unblur, also there are several other 'effects' to chose from. The option to change the size of the blurring tool needs to be able to be made just a tadbit smaller, even at zero it is still rather to big to get in those tiny spots, easy fix while you can just unblur with the hopes you don't touch the edges of what you wanted blurred, more annoying than anything, having the tool smaller at the smallest setting would be more efficient. That and the force review contributed to my 4 stars instead of 5. Over all a GREAT App!!!

  2. 2/5I am only rating this because they made me to unlock a function!

    So very annoying. I had just BOUGHT the entire app, hadn't even edited one pic yet, and when I went to adjust the opacity, it told me I could either cancel or rate the app to "unlock" that feature. Mind you, I had already payed $1.99 to get (what I thought was) full access to the features of the app. Well, of course I tapped cancel & it closed the pop up but then it popped up again. We played this stupid game 5 times & then I finally gave in & tapped rate. So, that brings me here. Wasting my time rating an app that I haven't used & know absolutely nothing about. So, for that, their app gets 2 stars. I was going to give them one, but I'm not a mean spirited person usually. I'm just ticked off that after paying $1.99, I can't use the whole app without any interruptions. Rethink it, app makers. Rethink it.

  3. 2/5Hidden Costs

    Don’t buy this app. First of all, you can’t adjust the feather of the brush, so when you blur there is a hard line between the blurred area and the non blurred area. Second, you’ll pay for the app, and then to use any of the blur adjustments you’ll have to pay another $1.99. After that when you go to save the image, you’ll have to pay another $1.99 to remove their water mark from the image (and to avoid ads within the app). If they had sold it in the App Store for $5 or so up front with no additional fees, I probably would have bought it and given it a decent review. But since you buy the app without knowing that you have to pay even more just to use it properly, then I say it’s not worth the money to get.

  4. 5/5Happyblur

    The app is great...for those that really haven't tried it or gave up because it wanted a review....I've read some of the other reviews and I'm only doing this because it asked me to give it a review after trying to change the opacity. So here it is. I love it. You can blur, unblur, change the opacity, and choose different effects. Change the size of your opaquing tool. Zoom in n out to get those small areas. It's great!!

  5. 1/5DO NOT BUY! Was Decent but Now...

    This app was pretty decent in the past. It wasn’t one of those apps I used constantly but when I did it seemed to preform well. Unfortunately the app stopped working properly some time ago. Everything seems to be working properly, until you go to save or share and then it’s still the original image. It really pisses me off and I think Apple should pull this app. This was not just the free version. I paid for this garbage and it doesn’t preform. Also I noticed that some of the fx are not as strong as before and now I have to change the opacity but they are charging more money for an app that doesn’t work. What’s the point if it doesn’t save to my photos. Get your act together.
