   Not worth it. 2.99 a month for some basic blur effects??? Get bent

2. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   Paid for a year but pro features are not allowed to be saved to library. I used to love this app and have supported it for many years. I have had a subscription for a long time and still do. So they revamped it and it’s very nice, but if I use any of the pro features, it will not allow me to save any of the photos to my library. All I get is the screen to subscribe and to start a free trial. I tried “restore purchase” and it did not work. Wrote them, no response.

3. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   You have to pay to use it at all.. It will not let you X out of the screen asking you to buy the pro version. The X simply does not work. You cannot even use the "Free" version with the watermark.

4. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   Not good enough to pay for. Sick to death of having to pay for all these stupid apps, especially when they don’t allow you to opt out. It’s not that good of an app

5. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   No functions, only ads. 2 ads to launch app, 2 ads after app is launched, 2 ads after you touch anything

6. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   DO NOT DO THE SUBSCRIPTION. It says $2 for a month but then they charged me $10. It’s only $10 but if you’re trying to do something minor on the app, you can find all of these features on a free app. Literally all they do is blur on this app.

7. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   I Purchased before it went viral, now it wants me to pay MONTHLY!. I purchased this App back in Oct 2020 payed for the no add and watermarked lifetime also in November I purchased for the lifetime opacity. Now that it has switched to monthly or yearly purchase it wants me to purchase again for the same thing, won’t let me use at all. It won’t go past the purchase selection. I pressed already purchase it states there is no record of purchase. I have proof of purchase.

8. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   One time price. Why is this app $12 a year or two dollars a month this app should not be a monthly subscription is horrible Why somebody will pay a monthly subscription just to blur a background that

9. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Fake. Costs money. Upon opening the app for the first time, it even advertised some other photo app. Waste of time.

10. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Don’t purchase. Would not recommend! The shape of the blur tool is a circle & it doesn’t get that small so it is very hard to get the corners and things like that. Another thing is that it doesn’t give you the option to make the blur less or more it’s just ONE setting. All in all it’s just not that great I’m sure there is other apps out there that will be way better & you will have more control over the blur tool!

11. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Pen not good.. The blurry pen only gets so small, need to make it smaller for tight areas.

12. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    No longer works for free. No longer a free app. Clicking on the X does nothing

13. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Read the fine print.. This app (and any of its companion apps which have a similar “water droplet” logo, collects this data from you: Data Linked to You The following data may be collected but it is not linked to your identity: ⚪︎ Purchases ⚪︎ Location ⚪︎§= Identifiers ⚪︎ al Usage Data ⚪︎ Diagnostics

14. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Don’t do it! They will steal your money. Been using this app for years, paid for the full version long ago and now I can’t access the app at all. It’s just trying to force me into a subscription. I want my money back!

15. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Unusable. This is genuinely the worst app I’ve ever used. I’m not sure if the free versions setup is different from the paid (doubt the app setup is different just bc you unlock features) but you can’t even zoom on the picture without it swiping to another screen and getting rid of your edits. It’s not even user friendly to edit and i can usually tolerate little annoying things but this whole app is unusable. It will take you 45 minutes to edit a pic that should’ve taken 2, be warned lol.

16. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Have to purchase. When finding the App in the App Store it says “in app purchase” but if you want to save the pic you just blurted - you have to buy that. Should just put a price on it in the App Store.

17. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Ripoff! DO NOT BUY!. Bought this app FULL PRICE and now I can’t use it without a subscription?! I can’t even dismiss the paywall screen and it won’t restore my purchase! So now its completely unusable. Ripoff - DO NOT BUY.

18. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Nope…. Not a proper blur effect. Not at all considering the depth of field. Difficult to manipulate to try to achieve a portrait-like blur. I gave up after 10 minutes. There are much easier ways. Not to mention all the ads - oh my God. Had to purchase the app to figure out it didn’t work for even the basic blur effect I needed. Zero stars.

19. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    man. it keeps getting stuck on the pay update screen and i can’t even access the actual all

20. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Doesn’t work. Did nothing to blur the background, tried in several lighting situations. Maybe doesn’t work with iPhone 11 Pro idk

21. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

    DONT DOWOAD IT. I tried to get it and the first thing that came up was a free trail, there was a x on the side of the screen so I clicked it and nothing happened!!! So I clicked “2.99/monthly” then the app didn’t wanna freeze. It’s like you can only use it if you pay. I shouldve looked at the revewi before downloading this 🤦🏻‍♀️

22. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    It’s Garbage, but only if you care about the quality of your photos.. This is not blur, this is smear… What a pathetic app… All I was trying to do was add some depth of field to one picture of the easiest way in I was appalled that it couldn’t even blur a few cotton balls without looking like someone smeared itat the bottom of my frame.

23. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Bad app. The compression in this app is so bad,it literally covers the whole picture in pixels when u open it in the app.

24. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    SELL OUTS. I’ve used this app for about 2 years, to blur my pics for my websites. I’ve always loved it until the new update. Adds all over the place && now you have to pay to use most of the different blur effects when they’ve always been free. I’m deleting it and switching to something else.

25. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Just awful. This ended up being a complete waste of time as there are no tools except for a brush and the brush inevitably blurs your subject as well as the background no matter how careful you are

26. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Thieves. This app took peoples money, then switched to subscription and kicked everyone out of the app who had paid for it. Do not give them money.

27. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    No longer works. I downloaded and purchased in-app options for opacity and blur types, as well as removing watermarks. Now, suddenly it won’t even work and is making me do the subscription thing. What happened to my purchases then? It won’t even recognize it. Very disappointed! 🤷🏻‍♂️

28. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Not fair after update. Few months ago I paid for the lifetime version and after the new update it doesn’t show lifetime. The app is asking me to pay again but this time for monthly/ yearly. This is not acceptable, those who paid for lifetime version should have grandfathered lifetime version

29. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Scam. Scam. Be careful don't spend money on this app

30. ★★★★★a needed feature is missing

    Terrible. This is a terrible app, it forces you to put a tag on your picture. There has to be a way to choose, other than giving no option at all
