- ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions
Predatory Pricing. They have charged me multiple times with NO notification. When I emailed, asking them to cancel, they refused to process the cancellation and sent me on a runaround to cancel. Update: I did reach out to them as suggested, and, as noted above, they refused to process the cancellation. They have also failed to respond to the predatory pricing activities of refusing to send charge notifications (no receipts ever sent)
- ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions
trash app. used to be good back in the day, now almost every useful feature that used to be free is now paywalled and locked to premium. sad to see what one of my favorite editing apps from 10 years ago has become today.
- ★★★★★trial charges and refunds
Terrible payment charge process. I use this app and thought I had set up a subscription to pay through Apple, but I suppose I used a card. I only use this for a trial. Then deleted the app. They continue to charge me for three years and never sent me any confirmations of monthly payments invoice. They intentionally hid this information so I wouldn’t catch it. Their system is set up to take your money and their policy says they won’t provide a refund even though the app has not been used at all.

Money-hungry and avaricious. I will never use this app again due to how almost every feature is premium. If you are seeing this, fix your app NOW or else I will NEVER EVER use it. Regretfully, patientduck394

Unfair. I bought this app like 15 years ago. And now suddenly it wants a monthly subscription for me to continue ?! Well how about paying me back for buying you if you aren’t going to honor my purchase anymore

Customer Support is Nil. This was my go to app for years. And now I can’t use it saying problem with Safari. I’ve sent numerous support requests and no response.

Subscription. Hello, I’ve cancelled my subscription with BeFunky for about 3 months now, even deleting my own account. Im still getting charged from my credit card account from those 3 months and I have no idea how to get refunded. It is so annoying.

Terrible customer service. I was looking at this app and accidentally purchased it. Within an hour, I tried to cancel and they would not cancel my membership. They make it too easy to sign up. It was obvious that I wasn’t using it within one hour! Scam!

one star. you basically have to pay for everything you want to do and that little stamp it there

Another unnecessary subscription. This app was great- one of my favourites but now they’ve gone and made it subscription based. Incredibly disappointed as I paid for the pro version years ago- and happily. Some things we should just be allowed to own.

Find something else.. I paid for the app originally. But now they want to charge me a monthly fee because they updated their business strategy.
- ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions
Check your payments. I canceled my app subscription on 4/8/23. I was sick and not closely checking my credit card. Turns out BeFunky continued to charge me $9.99 monthly April to December. This month (January) I realized, confirmed on my phone when I canceled the subscription. I figured out how to go into my account online and they had me on still, so I canceled it again. I asked for a refund of $89.91, and they only gave me one month $9.99 back. They claim I had two accounts, but that is incorrect. I only have one email to have an account with, only ever bought and used it on my iPhone, and was only ever charged one fee per month, not two as would have been the case if I had two accounts. SUPER SHADY. I’ve reported them to the BBB. It’s a shame because their product is useful but beware of their criminal billing practices.

App is unusable.. I was able to edit a single photo. After that app stopped allowing new projects to be started. I was pleased with the one photo, so the app has potential, but if new projects can’t be started it only takes up space on device.
- ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors
Terrible…. I acquired the 7 day free trial and spent 20 minutes putting together a collage only for the app to glitch out. It now won’t let me resume my collage to save it to my camera roll without glitching back out to the main page. Don’t waste your time.

Used to be good. Idk what happened to this app. It was my favorite photo editing app for YEARS hands down! They completely changed the format, took away almost all the editing tools and now I will be deleting it. I’m extremely disappointed.
- ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions
Just no. I’ve use this app for free FIVE years finally paid 2 days ago and now it’s locked me out from accessing the app. Un freaking believable !! Stay away

Disappointed. This app used to be free for basic collages now you have to pay. I just wanted to write a review before deleting the app. I will not upgrade to $9.99 for a collage of 2. Do not recommend this app.
- ★★★★★the asset the user accumulated (fonts, presets, recipes, license) lives only locally and…
Doesn’t work anymore. Crashes every time I try to edit a picture. I uninstalled/reinstalled and my phone is new 😢 I hate to rate it so harshly but I’m hoping the developers see this. I miss the old version.
- ★★★★★an update broke a familiar workflow
Another app ruined.. For forever this has been my favorite photo app. This “update” ruined it completely. I actually had to triple check to see if I had opened the correct app. This is not an update. It’s a complete overhaul of what was already a great app.
- ★★★★★a needed feature is missing
Old version should be available to older phones. I noticed the new social media creations weren’t an option on my phone. So I looked at the app and saw a new version. But no upgrade. I thought, that’s odd. Maybe I’ll just delete it and redownload. Mistake. I deleted it and now I don’t have access to the app at all because I don’t waste money upgrading my phone every year. 🙄. Update since the developers didn’t understand: It’s not compatible with my phone! It’s not available to me at all! I at least had the old version to use before I stupidly deleted it. So now I don’t have it and I can’t get the new version. I was saying if you’re not going to make the new version compatible with all iPhones then you should have two apps in the App Store: one with the newest version and one with the old version

I paid.. since 2020!?. I still have receipt on my email. It wouldn't even let me login or reset my password. RIP OFF!!

Old layout. I just updated my BeFunky app, may 2nd 2023 and I do not like this new layout. It’s more complicated and unnecessary. The old one you had was easier, better and faster to edit.
- ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions
Good bye!. I am so tired of these stupid apps wanting people to pay for a “premium subscription”. Like bro just last year everything was good and now I have to pay just to make a 4 picture collage. Good BYE!

This app is trash now! Smh 🤦🏾♂️. This app used to be so great and user friendly. Since they’ve updated it, it’s been a nightmare. 🤦🏾♂️ Just deleted it.

Recent update is HORRIBLE. Please go back to the previous version PLEASE!!! This is so horrid. I’ve been using this app for years. Stop lying to people by telling them the web version has a lot of the old features. Such a lie! You can still do your money grab and let us have our app back! This won’t end well

- ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions
Keeps charging me without an account. Been trying to find a way to cancel this product monthly charge. Canceled my Apple Card and changed the number - still charged. Logged into my computer and iPhone to cancel - no account exists. Went to their support and put in my credentials to cancel. Asked to cancel - still doesn’t cancel. I’m tired of this product and company.
- ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions
It used to be good. This was my go-to app for photo editing. But they’ve changed it and now it’s more trouble than it’s worth. It takes now takes way too long to weed through the filters (and ALLLLL) the paid options. It’s more hassle than benefit anymore which is a shame because it used to be a great app

New update. Horrible

Compatible change. Why is this app not compatible with a device I have used it on for over a year ? This makes absolutely no sense. Why is there no version that is compatible now ? Do you not want us to use the app?
