A bit frustrating that the app is always trying to upsale me every time I’m on it
Love the app! I'm not a photographer but this sure helps me learn to edit the look of a photo!
I’ve been using after light for as long as I can remember. One of my favorite parts about it are the film like presets. I loved the gold one, you used to have 20 different variants and be able to tap the filter to change it slightly - but with this update now there is only one and i’m not a fan of it. Don’t know why they’d get rid of the multiple something for everyone options but unfortunately the MULTIPLE variants were the reason I still use this app and now I have no reason too. Disappointing as the variants were my favorite filter i’ve ever used
I've used this app for years and years now, and I always come back to it. There is nothing that does it like this one when it comes to colors, filters, effects, adjustments... even compared to Photoshop (on the phone). I love Afterlight. They seem to be a good company too, I was grandfathered into the premium for being here before there was a premium, and they've never gone back on their word. You don't have to pay even more for additional community filters if you have premium either. Good app. :)
The filters are useless. They barely change anything. Want refund but probably lost this money.
I discarded a layer and the whole app crashed, and I lost almost an hour’s worth of work. And this was right after subscribing to pro! Before the crash, it was fantastic. So disappointed. Now I’m hesitant to start over, I don’t want to lose my work again.
Very cool and unique in that you basically build custom film presets from the ground up. You can make your own film that may not even exist. However, I really wish the filters didn’t have original names. I’d rather just search for the specific film I’m looking to emulate, as opposed to an endless list of completely random names that I can’t remember and having to click on each one just to get an idea of what they look like. It feels disorganized and not the best for workflow.
