Love it

I love this app! Its clean and its easy but I wish there were both more effects to choose from and an option to share it on social networks directly from the app. (: lovey program all over beside that though!

:)

Great app. The filters are very customizable. A little confusing. Still a wonderful ap with unique lenses

Meh

Its pretty basic. All you can do is apply a some effects and not very many. They look nice but Ive paid less for camera apps that already do very similar effects and can also do a whole lot more. Regretting the purchase.

I regret buying this!

It comes with 16 filters and that is it. You pick one of the 16 and thats basically all you can do. And most filters arent that usable. I would recommend trying camera+ which has a better array of filter in the edit section of the app. Hope this helps.

Solid app, High resolution, No crashing.

Ive owned this app since; I guess 2010 - pretty much when it came out, and maybe Im just partial to its layout after all this time, but I think its quality over quantity (and you CAN double-click on each filter for a different-yet-similar effect, I didnt realize that at first)! These filters are really quite timeless, but Id your looking for something more radical or infinite combinations, etc. I would go with something else (scratchcam, retrocam, or befunky are good and more varied, depending on your tastes). This does not serve all of my needs, but it has had a niche in my most-used app spot going on 2.5-3 years now..., that says something! :)

Thank You!

Ive been wanting this for sooooo long. So thanks for the "free today only"!! :)) Now to see what I can do! Thats the only reason for 4 stars, I havent used it yet!! But wanted to say thanks! PS: I dont know whats up with iTunes but I own other apps by yall & so for now even though they say "download" I cant reply with a review!

Good but lacking..

This app is small, quick, and has some nice filters. They should tell you that if you double click on the picture the filter changes and you have more options. The only reason this app is not getting five stars is the price. This app is worth a buck. It is a clean interface and runs smoothly but a little overpriced. Peace

Meh

Ive seen better. Its definitely a very basic photo filter app but theres nothing special and the interface is annoying.

Great App

Been using it for close to 2 years. For a point, shoot and identify filter easily app its a beauty. Very impressed and would highly recommend. Apps like Instagram give an illusion of control, and most of us are not good enough photographers to take advantage of Apps like that. This lil App makes things a lot simpler.

mediocre set of canned filters

Its got a bunch of retro filters and a for-dummies interface. I think there are similar filter apps available with better interfaces. I cant figure out how to use the crop feature and have it center on the relevant part of the photo. Its more of a throw-some-effects on my photo tool and ser if something cool comes out, rather than a tool for applying desired alterations to an image.

Save your money.

Pro: The effects are pretty darn authentic. They really could pretty much pass as what they say they are. Con: No control. You take what they give you. You can double-tap for variations on particular filters, but it seems rather arbitrary. You cant tweak saturation or balance or whatever on your own, just keep tapping and hope something you like pops up. Pretty goofy, very frustrating. Id happily give this four or five stars if they had sliders or other adjustments within the various filters that you could control yourself. I think the people who are geeky enough to appreciate the authenticity of the film/darkroom/filter effects are going to want more control over the end result. People who just want some cool effects are going to want more of a selection. So lose/lose in its current state. This *could* be a really nice app, and if it were free itd be a bit above "meh", but Im really bummed I paid $1.99 for the thing and wish I could get a refund.

Favorite

One of the first apps I got and still the favorite.

A bit limited

If you like simplicity and limited choices this app gives good results. The limited choices and options may be a plus for quick results. But Im going to dock it a star for being a bit too limited. Im also knocking off a star because instead of making this a universal app the developer chose to make a separate iPad version so they can charge you twice. News: this app is barely worth buying once let alone twice.

Elegant Minimalist Designed App

I used this app extensively on a recent vacation and really enjoyed it especially during travel. The preset filters are great and the elegant design is a plus. I have pleanty of apps to tweak images but sometimes it becomes tiring. Five Stars for this one!

Great and easy to use app

I just found out another option...just tap the picture and there are many more options with each filter. I absolutely love this app...makes any photo fabulous! Now only if the can add red eye and face powder to this app then it will be a 6 out of 5 stars!!

Great, but

Some of the filters are great, providing a lot of style options to explore for one photo, but it is totally unreliable. I cant tell you how many once in a lifetime moments have been lost due to crashes. (One crash for each successful capture is a common ratio.) Also, saving an image in other styles is glacially slow. The ability to adjust exposure, tint, contrast would also be an improvement.

Ancient app. Better choices now.

This app came out years ago at the beginning of the hipster cam fad. It has about a dozen fixed effects. Now there are many apps that offer crazy amounts of filters and combinations. This app has been left in the dust.

Updated for iOS 7! Whaaaaa?

To think I almost deleted this app... but I was just too fond of it. I honestly NEVER expected this to be updated for iOS 7, however. You guys are SAINTS!!

Last Update for v1?

Kinda disappointed hearing that. Im not a big fan of having to buy the same app twice just so the Dev can make more money. Ive had a bunch of fun with this app, it was one of my first camera app purchases. It is quick, easy and has decent results for a filter app. Ill have to see if v2 will be worth the upgrade, again not thrilled about having to purchase again.

A Classic...

Been using this app for 4+ years now. I have yet to find anything to match its simplicity and awesomeness. I have compared many a photo app to Camerabag over the years, and just keep coming back! Awesome work.
