3/5Won’t work anymore
I’ve had this app for a while with no issues. Opened it today to an error message and camera won’t work. Hopefully there’s a fix soon but I’m noticing the very low numbers of ratings and even a review from 11 years ago. Hopefully this app isn’t dead and gets fixed because I love it so much 💔

2/5Video Import No Longer Properly Supported
I used to love this app. The video feedback simulation is great. However, I used to be able to import videos and apply all effects easily. Now importing a video appears to crop it or simply squeeze/expand the image to fill the app’s canvas, thus not allowing you to really see what you’re doing or gauge how you’re applying effects. The app always felt a little glitchy, unpredictable and unstable, but this really pushes it over the edge. Such a shame. Please consider fixing this.

3/5Having issues
At first the app was working but now it won’t let me use it on my videos!! It keeps zooming in on my videos for some reason! Really annoyed because I wanted this app for while and now that I have it, it doesn’t even work for what I want it for!! Please fix it!!!!!!!

Double tap resets ) -Patrick
