Don’t get the pointI honestly don’t get the point of this app… each photo needs to be imported although it could perfectly well live in its original storage until it is edited and needs to be exported? Make it make sense

Latest release is completely brokenThe latest release is so badly broken that I can’t even see the dozens of bugs other reviews are complaining about, because most of the app’s controls are no longer even visible on my iPhone SE’s screen. The app is now literally unusable.

bblakley, Oct 5, 2026

UnusableI can’t export 99% of my photos RAW without it crashing. I’ve never have experienced this before. I just bought it. And i have enough memory on my phone. Its updated. I’ve tried every export format. This app is 🚮🗑️ str8 trash and i want a full refund. . .

软件很好用不过为什么现在打不开了?手机和平板都不行为什么现在软件打不开了,一直卡在图标那个界面,删除重新下载也不行,请开发者解释下

HaonCW, Feb 17, 2020

软件更新后就打不开了怎么回事,苹果系统也已经更新到最新了,软件也重新安装过了都没有用。希望能尽快修复!很喜欢你们的软件

issyrup, Feb 15, 2020

整体体验很好,有bug希望加强修复软件体验感很好,把它当成相册用了。 1.建议:希望加入图片标注功能,比如添加文字,打马赛克等,这样大部分图片编辑都可以用一个软件解决。 2.bug:图片元数据在打开图片左右滑动浏览的时候不会刷新,图片时间、图片大小这两个元素都不会刷新,希望解决。
