5/5Love this so much!
This is my favorite photography app. There are just two things that I wish it did (and find frustrating that it doesn’t)... 1) Be able to select photos to edit from certain albums, such as Favorites, and most importantly 2) Be able to resize/recompose photos in the app. I hope you’ll consider adding the ability to do these two things in the next update and make this app even more awesome. 🙏🏼

3/5The Eyes, Framing & Filters Need Tweeking
It’s fun, but I agree with some, that the way it captures eyes needs fixing. It makes everyone’s eyes look like they are about to undergo cataract surgery. I also disliked the filter ranges. If you want to capture the mood of something rotting, or a cemetery photo shoot, this will work well. Most of it’s filter range hovers between over maxed airbrushing, or moldy soap bubbles. If you have strong sharp features and large pores, this will be a nice capture of your image, and you’ll do better, but there are some really attractive faces that this filter does not compliment. I do think it is an enjoyable filter and think it is worth the price.

5/5Only Humans?
This app is amazing, one of my favorites, in fact. I do have one request to the developers though. Is there any way you can make it so the app recognizes dog/cat/pet in general, eyes as well? I’m not a big fan of humans, so most of the photos I take are of my dog, and the cats that live in the house. I’m positive I’m not the only person who would love this feature. Pets are big business. Either way keep up the good work, you guys make great stuff!

5/5What happened???
This has been one of my favorite cameras for years. Now, photos are not processing and error messages are coming up. It’s frustrating to say the least. I hope you can fix it because I rely on your camera systems and filters for many of my photography work and conversions.

3/5Needs focus control point
The best feature to improve this app would be to adding the ability to adjust the focus point with touch. This added control would make this app so much better. Without focus point touch a majority of the photos are not focused on the primary subject. I would pay more for this feature. When the focus point falls correctly on the subject the results are special. Please consider upgrading this feature - "point-of-focus touch control".
