3★Honestly mid at best. You can't direct to specific folders. it doesn't update to camera roll changes. You pay for premade templates and that's it. Nothing else is user friendly or makes actually using the templates accessible. I should be able to either select a group of pictures I want from my camera roll, or navigate to a specific folder. Neither of which is an option (at least not on Android).

4★I like the app but wish it had a desktop version. It can be difficult to move images/crop them without the picture getting cropped weirdly and having to be readjusted, but it gets a little easier with some practice and patience. It would be a lottt easier on a bigger screen though. My main issue right now is when I add videos and try to save my design, the app just renders and renders and won't save (I tried adding a 3 second video so I don't think it was a size issue). Please fix :(

1★I paid for the app. it's heavily glitching. it randomly shuts down, and won't save the collage to my phone or render for Instagram. I've emailed them to get help with no response yet. There is no app update to download. I just opened a project to edit it and there are different photos in different spots and not the same as when it was saved. do not bother with this app.

1★I signed up for the free trial and found it so promising, I added payment for a 1 yr subscription. Sadly it wasn't to be. I wasn't even able to finish 1 seemless carousel. The app kept crashing. It's buggy with issues like the re-do button randomly failing and having to re-do what you just did. And then finally, my project crashed completely, appears to be corrupted, and I can't open it at all. Can't believe this is a paid app. Canceled and uninstalled.

2★I've used this app for months and have really enjoyed it but just tonight I was trying to make a collage and the settings for adjusting photos just wouldn't work. when I tried to move them around they would disappear or crop in ways I didn't want it to, and I found each photo nearly impossible to move around because all they would do is crop. I'm really disappointed because I love the end results of the collages but now the app is impossible to use.
