8 of 15I use this app every day
Honestly it should stay free, but it should be multiplayer challenge stuff. Otherwise, it’s a really good app. Just make it more easy and fun like challenges. 5 stars
Had this app since iOS 14. Works perfectly well & handy for all sorts of stuff I want to do. Still no bugs w/ iPhone 17 & iOS 26.5. [I went for the Pro version]
BASED
I recently had to get a new phone and start from scratch. I don’t use much cloud storage and didn’t have a viable backup. I was so worried that this app might not exist anymore, and I couldn’t remember its name! I use it to edit all my online auction listing photos. I had to scroll through tons of AI garbage apps to find this one again and I was so happy it was still around. Just effective, good functionality, no dumb gimmicks. Take my money for a second time — I’m happy to continue supporting this reasonably-priced app. Shame on the Apple App Store for burying it. This thing is a total gem.
I have used this app for at least 10 years possibly longer and it is excellent for picture at a team when you want to repair some small blemish or something and actually there is a lot more that you can do besides that. It is a great app.
It is rare to find an app that survive multiple phone upgrades, but this app has been on my home screen since October 2016. Having used this app for nearly ten years, I can confidently say it is the ultimate creative Swiss Army knife for anyone who treats their photo library like a canvas. Whether I’m performing a quick "surgical" edit by drawing on photos and adding precise text and shapes, or diving into a full-blown project using advanced layers and photo blending, the interface remains intuitive and snappy. The sheer depth of features—from the whimsical stamps and stickers to the professional-grade scrapbook construction with frames and collages—makes it just as useful for a five-minute meme as it is for a thoughtful digital keepsake. I appreciate how the developers have managed to keep the app consistently reliable and feature-packed without losing the user-friendly spark that hooked me a decade ago. If you need a versatile, all-in-one powerhouse for your images, this is the gold standard.
I use this app all the time
