Ratings and reviews

I love this app. It's perfect for mobile photography. However, the app could use a "Drafts" Folder so you can go back to your unfinished work and not start all over again. Also, this "Drafts" Folder can be helpful if you want to edit the same photo in different filters or mood. Lastly, since the app doesn't have a Sticker tool, it will be helpful if you can use. PNG files on the exposure. Thank you.

Very nice editing application but there are still some notable inconveniences. First, the double exposure tool is terrible. Transparent PNGs doesn't appear transparent at all, instead it has this dark background which also affects the previous layer. You are also limited in resizing the photo which sucks, and you can't zoom in and out. Secondly, it is difficult to crop photos since you can't zoom in as well.

I'd give it a 5 star if the next updates will address these: -Images gets binned automatically. If we can choose the resolution when exporting. -Sometimes the expand feature doesn't work. It used to work everytime but now it doesn't. -I like the layout. It's super clean, but it'd be cool if lighting effects were added and it's in a different section. -Loading in RAW format files is really fast, but it could be faster. - Some minor Optimizations to be made.
