User Reviews
I love this app. It hasn’t failed me at all
Now i need a app to be able make 2d pictures move , ty this app is Great
App won’t open anymore. Useless.
This is intuitive and can make your photos look like they were shot on spherical cooke lenses or c-series anamorphic. There are also many layers so you can manipulate, fade etc. Highly recommend if you’re looking to add that punch. As good as fcpx lens flare package.
Have it installed on my Mac and my iPads. Love adding a bit of flare and sunburst to a photo😷
Crashes on startup, never did it before.
worked great and was a 5 star app till last update. now will not work at all.
Please fix.. can’t reposition effects without rotating IPad.
This app is incredibly powerful with its lighting effects. It could definitely use some improvements to its user interface but it gets the job done. I removed one star because the app consistently crashes. Whenever I try to load in a new picture the app crashes, I have to delete it and reinstall. The other star is because the finished photo downgrades the pictures quality severely. It makes a clear up close photo with lots of detail look out of focus when you export it. This is a big deal and should be fixed. There are other things I would love to see added like the ability to save layers so that you can try them on different photos without having you redo the entire thing. The app is very powerful but has so much more potential!
App crashes every time I try to edit a new picture, sad because it really is fun to work with.
