ColorStoryColorStory is such a good editing app. It’s a must have. There are so many amazing filters and more. For only $3 dollars you are able to unlock all the filters. But even the free ones are enough. For the first month I had it I used the free stuff which was really good. But then I trialed the other filter and I had to bye it for such a cheap price. I give it a I’ve star rating 💕🌌🏞.Version: 2.0.4

LoveLove everything about this so many beautiful filters and effects! I love using the grid feature to plan my instagrams, everything you need in one app, best editing app I have come by!!!.Version: 4.5.4

Only Photo Editing App You'll NeedBefore getting A Color Story I solely used VSCOcam. Since getting this app, I've hardly touched VSCO. I love it because you can get bright images that pop and are vibrant without any weird skin tones and funky color changes. They have presets for any style you might like, and fun extras to add a little pizzazz if that's what you like. There are also amazing technical options like adjusting an image using curves. Plus, you can save your favorite filter combinations as your own so it's easy to have consistency. The only (sorta) negative thing is that I wish you could batch edit. That's the one thing I miss about VSCO, but because you can save an exact edit "recipe" on ACS and import another photo to apply that same edit to, it makes up for not being able to batch edit. Regardless, it's by far my favorite photo editing app to date!.Version: 3.1.4

Very easy to use!Makes my pictures look so much better..Version: 4.9.2

Great app!Love this app! The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because it often quits on me in middle of editing a pic...usually if I do 4-5 in a row it quits & changes aren’t saved when it crashes so I have to start over. Could be my iPhone too I guess 😏.Version: 4.3.4

Fave Editing AppEasy, crisp & delightful. 🙌🏾.Version: 2.0.4

Fantastic Editing App!!Love A Colour Story sooo much!! Even free, it has so many great features - something that other editing apps lack. My only problem is that I can’t seem to download the ‘Happiness Begins’ pack (which is free). It says that an error occurred and to contact support... but I can’t find any way to contact them - there’s no settings... PLEASE HELP ME!!!.Version: 3.3.2

Good range of filters!Always use this app for filters and adjusting every detail, would recommend! Only thing is is you have to purchase filter packs but that doesn’t bother me a lot 😊.Version: 2.2.1

GreatI find this app really easy to use. Although I only really use it in quite a basic way, there are ways to tweak different aspects of the filters too, so I think it would be useful to people who are more skilled photo editors than myself. I just use it as the free version and it’s great for my needs. You can pay a subscription to have access to all the features, or opt for one time purchase “packs” of filters instead. I’ve used it for quite a long time so have bought packs occasionally and the developers give free packs away every now and then. This collection is more than enough for what I need. However, without this collection of packs, the free version that you begin with may be a bit too basic for some people..Version: 4.8.6

Amazing!I just love this app! More high quality filters than you could ever ask for, and so easy to use! Edits can be subtle to extreme, depending on what you’re after. Highly recommend!!.Version: 4.9.3

Cool appLove this app, easy to use and brilliant colours.Version: 3.1.2

I heart ColorStoryEasy to use and the selection of filters is fantastic!!.Version: 2.2.2

Simply amazingUsing this app has made editing my photos so much better and fun! Thank you.Version: 2.0.5

One of the better filter-based editorsI really like A Color Story. Many of the filters - even free ones - are usable and attractive, and the editing tools seen to work well too. I'm not quite as happy with the interface - in terms of switching between filters and tools, for example, or going back without losing what you've done. It can certainly be done; I just find it a bit awkward. Definitely worth the download though. 👍.Version: 2.0.4

Great appGreat app, my go to for photo & video editing.Version: 4.8.8

I feel inspiredUsing a color story has been very fun. The plus packs are great, and have made me feel much more inspired as I take and edit photos. I also like the grid function, so I can see what my photos look like next to one another. I wish that it wasn’t so expensive to get all the plus packs and editing tools to keep (I’m not a super fan of subscription services, so far I’ve only bought the filters and effects I like). That said, I’ve still enjoyed using the app quite a lot. I take more pride in taking a nice photo now, and pay much closer attention to color! I feel like I’m starting to develop my own visual language or style in photographs, which I’ve never felt before in this medium. Hope others enjoy as well! **update on current edition: it seems like all the glitches with the most recent update have been resolved—it works fine. I do wish that I could access photos from my shared photo albums in iPhoto from the app. I also don’t like that more and more features move from being a part of the free version to items that must be purchased. I can tell that they are reaaaaaallly pushing the subscription service, which I don’t like because then I don’t permanently own the tool/filters..Version: 4.0.5

Best photo editing appI run a small business and I use this app to edit all of my photos on my Instagram as well as on my website. I couldn’t do without it!.Version: 4.5.2

The only photo editing app you needI’ve used A Color Story since it launched and I’ve honestly never stuck with using a single app for so long. It’s got everything I need in one place (especially with the latest updates for batch editing and video/boomerang editing!) - way more than just pretty filters. Having said that, the filters are BRILLIANT. I have downloaded most of the filter packs, and although I don’t use all of them, the favouriting function makes it really easy to edit quickly using only the ones that match my style. I always struggled to find apps with the kind of filters I liked - I didn’t want to make my photos seem “moody” or “vintage”, I wanted bright whites and bold colours, and this app is perfect for that (it does do moody and vintage too if you’re so inclined!).Version: 2.0.1

Handy app!Can really transform your Instagram feed..Version: 4.8.7

Love it! And easy to use.I hope you will also enjoy! Love it, easy to use 😍 Great application, fun to use!.Version: 4.9.6

Such a great photo editing app!I love this app! It’s fantastic for editing on the go! I love that you can layer the different filters and also create your own custom filters which helps with creating a consistent theme across your photos. It’s super easy to use and I adore it! ☺️.Version: 2.0.1

Love!This app is all I need for photo editing, good job Elsie and team!.Version: 2.0.1

MorningAwesome.Version: 4.9.8

Great filters - butI have to be honest - i love everything about ACS except for how OFTEN I’m prompted to write/rate a review for the app. it happens every update, even with nothing but minor bug fixes. i thought writing a review would get rid of the prompt boxes, so i’ve submitted multiple reviews and ratings only to still be prompted about how i like the app. i love it. great filters and incredibly user friendly. but when editing multiple photos in a row to prep them for stories sharing, it’s incredibly frustrating to deal with the review pop up that locks up the entire screen and completely interrupts the creative flow. for the reason i’m giving it one star because i deadass avoid opening and editing on this app because of the review prompts..Version: 4.0.2

Best photo appEasy to use, great filters..Version: 4.9.5

UsefulIt’s very useful and it shows what it will look like on your Instagram which is very helpful for me.Version: 3.1.4

Really enjoying it!Heaps to play around with..Version: 2.2.2

Only app I useThis app has it all for photo editing for beginners or those with no time on their hands. With most filter packs free, you can choose not to buy the paid ones, but they’re so worth it!.Version: 3.1

Easy and intuitiveI like this app - it can do extreme to subtle filters (what I choose) and you can make favourites for your go to filters. Easy to use, too. It saves my photos taken in bad light and brings them back to life. As an artist, I use it to color correct my work before posting it on my website. Thank you!.Version: 4.9.2

Great for photo editingLove this app for basic photo editing..Version: 4.9.3

Just wonderful!This is my go to filter app. It is so easy to add that little bit of punch to my iPhone photos to give that dslr look, just wonderful!.Version: 4.1.0

Best photo editorReally great app for editing your photos! They always have great updates, with new features which you can play around with and make something great with. I would say it works best for scenic photos as opposed to editing selfies but you can make little tweaks that really help, like create better lighting in specific areas..Version: 3.3

Easy to use!Love this app. So easy to use with great results!.Version: 4.9.3

Must use appI use this app daily, it’s so good and has amazing editing tools. I love the grid function to plan our posts on Instagram as well. One update I’d love would to be able to move the images around that are uploaded (not posted) to plan better. This would a fantastic feature to have. But this app is incredible, thank you!.Version: 2.0.4

Absolutely incredible photo and video editing app!This incredible app, the brainchild of a team of superstar women, is the only app I ever use for retouching my images and videos. Super easy to use with pre-existing filters (all with such fun names), but also an incredible amount of control of you wish to retouch your Inage manually. Saving your favourite retouching actions is easy for pics taken in the same style light so you can quickly edit multiple pics. Or there’s even a bulk edit function. I also love the grid function (which you can also connect to Instagram) so you can get a flow of your images. Can not recommend enough! Happy creating!.Version: 4.2.2

Wonderful AppI love how it softens my photos makes them look magical I have bought a few filter packs and they never disappoint me at last an app where I can just pay a one off price and not sign up for subscriptions.Version: 3.0.2

My favorite appI’ve been using this app for five years now and I love it so much! Thank you for developing this amazing app :).Version: 4.9.8

Love the editing options, interface maybe needs tweaksLove that there are so many more editing controls than instagram. The interface I found a little slow to navigate through. I’m not sure if it’s because I’m just so used to Instagram’s that something different was throwing me off, or if it just needs a few tweaks, like the buttons need to be put in more intuitive places. Particularly when I’ve drilled down into one of the editing menus, it’s hard to figure out how to get back to the main editing menu. Also the controls are very small. But I’ll definitely keep using this. It really does help photos pop a lot more than anything I can do to them on Instagram or iPhone’s built in editing tools..Version: 3.1

Love!My daily go to for photo editing.Version: 4.9.2

Fav editing appThis is by far my favourite editing app. If you’re wanting A+ photo editing tools, you’re going to have to pay for them regardless. I’ve used many others out there but this is by far the best app I’ve used for quick, seamless and beautiful edits! The batch function now too... AMAZING! I have saved SO much time on editing with a few purchases. This is my go to app for all editing now..Version: 2.0

The only (and best) app you need!I’ve used so many other editing apps but none are as easy or gave me the ‘effect’ I wanted. With a Color Story it’s so easy to go between and layer filters to get exactly what you want - plus you can save them and recent edits are saved for quick batch editing. The grid is so useful for planning posts and I love that it’s all in one app so I don’t need to jump between apps. If you use Instagram or blog, you will love this app!.Version: 3.3

If you know what you're doing it has so much to offerI'm still exploring it and I only really understood now that each time you use it you are creating your own filters.. It would be good to have a guidance option whilst in mid edit, that can be disabled. It has a lot to offer and I would recommend it's worth trying it to see if you get on with it and make some pretty original work if you are on social media of any sort. I'm still grasping it when I have some time so car its good fun!.Version: 3.1

The only editing app you ever needI use a colour story everyday and love it completely. It’s easy to use and helps me create beautiful images to share. There is so much range within each filter and tool that I rarely have to open any of the other photo apps before posting to my blog or social media..Version: 2.0.2

Dare I Say it...Dare I say it, but today I cancelled my 2 year long VSCO subscription and have moved to Color Story for my editing needs. I use it in conjunction with a few apps - an app dedicated to shooting, color correcting (you guys!) and an app for blemishes/small details ACS doesn’t handle and it’s a dream. It has made my feed more fluent and visually thematic and I love it. I love the new direction my Instagram feed has taken and ACS has helped me achieve that. I love the fact that I can plan out how my feed is going to look with the use of the grid. I don’t bother with e captions, but it’s such a useful tool to visualize how my feed will turn out once my scheduled posts hit my feed. I’m so happy I bit the bullet and paid for a yearly subscription. My one suggestion is the layout of the filters. I have a lot of trouble sifting through so many on the bottom of my screen. I wish there was a dedicated filter screen in which I could see what many filters would look like applied at a glance..Version: 4.1.0

Favorite editing appThis is hands down my favorite editing app! I used to have to use multiple apps—one for filtered, one for actual edits, another to plan my grid, etc but now I can do them all in one place. Freeing up so much space on my phone & the filters are brill—great variety even in the free filters & I love the + packs I’ve bought. 👌.Version: 2.0.1

Never looking back!I’ve been using ColorStory for years now, and I will never look back! It’s the best app for filters and there are always so many new ones coming out. You can really adjust and make them your own, too. I can’t fault the app as it’s easy to use, bright, colourful and perfect. Obsessed! ❤️.Version: 4.1.0

BeginnerI’m very new to the app and still trying to figure it out. So check in with me again in a few months’ time ☺️ So far though - love that it’s available. I like the ‘pop’ filter. But would love some clarification on which things are free to use and which has a cost :).Version: 2.0.6

Where have you been all my life?!Not sure how many photo apps I’ve downloaded, free or fee, that I’ve tried and removed cause they just don’t have any unique features...but it’s a LOT. Credit goes to RealSimple Magazine for suggesting it in their April 2018 issue. Thought, oh well, it’s free. Let’s give it a try. It’s beyond versatile. Has all the editing tools as many other apps but my favorite here is ‘Curves’ under Tools. It creates a color variation I’ve never seen before. The filters themselves are different and adjustable. I could go on but it’s definitely worth a try. I actually was searching for a way to make my photos pink-it has that and MUCH more. Get it-you will not be sorry..Version: 2.1

Love this appThis is the only editing app i use i 100% recommend it and it has a lot of cute filters for free and payed.Version: 3.1.3

A colour storyI’ve had friends who have jobs involved in taking photos and they all use this app to bring out colour and have the most desired effects, they’ve all given a good review to me personally and I thought I’d try it out for myself. Now I’ve tried it I’ll never go back to anything else, this app has so much to offer and for as little as nothing you can try it out for yourself!.Version: 2.1

SuperbThis app is just gorgeous. Every photo looks sensational. So much scope with even just the free filters/effects. I have purchased a few extra which have all been well worth it. Perfect for beginners who want to find their feet photo editing and look like a pro!.Version: 3.2

Lots of bugsLove this app, but if you’re trying to schedule out post and use for IG, don’t. I scheduled all my post for the week... not only did it not remind me but it decided to delete all my content and schedules. This was the 2nd time it’s happen to me. Plus if you schedule a post then click on it to check the time it will erase the scheduled time on photo. Will show up in schedule list but will not remind you at scheduled time. Today there is just a big ghost grid when I tried to add in photos there are still 6ghost grid slots. Major bummer. Lots of work down the drain. Might have to go back to planoly. I want this this app to be my favorite and I know maybe it can be once these things are fixed..Version: 2.0.6

Use EverydayMom of 5 instagrammer that uses this everyday! I am obsessed with the filters, you can decide how much or little. It has all the adjustments for editing a picture without going to PhotoShop. Love it..Version: 4.9.5

So much funEasy to use, lots of fun to play around. Love the company and regular sharing from wide range of influencers about how they use it..Version: 2.0.1

My go to photo editing appI love this app! I’ve tried countless editing apps in the past and still have at least a dozen on my phone but this is the only one I use 😝 it’s user friendly, has amazing filters and makes even dull boring photos pop back into life. The i app purchases are easily installed and don’t cost the earth but to be honest I loved the free filters too so either way this app is a winner!.Version: 2.0.4

YessI like this app.Version: 3.3.3

Love this!!Great photo editing app! Love all the filters! Been using this for >2 years now!.Version: 4.9.8

Love this appLove this app!.Version: 4.9.5

Grid isn’t working.Love the app and all its features. Definitely a long term user and have purchased filters and more. I especially love the grid feature but it no longer works. Unsure of how to fix this problem and haven’t found any help on the issue..Version: 3.1.2

The best editing appI have been using this app for years and it has always been reliable for helping me creating the vibe I am trying to achieve with my photos. Love it.Version: 4.8.9

Not set up for iPad usersTouching up photos are great however if you are an iPad user, the interface isn’t set up to automatically, or at all, to turn your iPad horizontally. So when you are editing, you must have your device vertical. I want to use this app attached to my removable keyboard while I type or edit my photos and I cannot. The batch edit feature is ok just be aware you can’t batch edit all the photos then go in a tweet just one or two, including rotating one photo in your batch. You must crop, rotate your one or two photos before you batch edit in this app. I give this app a four star because it’s the closet thing to Lightroom on your phone or iPad for quick photo editing especially for selling sites. The curves and shadow adjustment feature makes this app stand out above the rest..Version: 4.8.1

My “go to” photo appI’ve been using A Color Story since it’s release and I love it. The basic pack is fabulous but I also love the new releases....I feel like my photos have so much more pop and finesse when I use this app. The creators definitely have a passion for photography and it’s evident in the many updates and refinements they are always doing. One of my fave features is the ability to edit boomerangs and videos....LOVE this feature. If I have a complaint it’s that there are TOO many beautiful filters to choose from and it’s overwhelming (but not a bad problem to have at all!). I need to be better about using the “favorites” to keep track of the ones I love best. 5 Stars!.Version: 2.0

First reviewProbably my first review ever but I really love this app. I post on Instagram with (in)frequency but I just love having my pictures all tidy and being able to play with the colours. Would love to be able to go through all the filters on a larger part of the screen as opposed to just scrolling on that tiny bit. It makes it difficult if you’ve got big fingers !!.Version: 3.3.3

Love itAmazing photo editing app!.Version: 4.9.8

Awesome app!You get an upgrade on your pictures and I receive positive comments from people. Make pictures look more professional. The only reason for not giving it 5 stars is because many of the filters are just way too expensive and you can’t try the filter before buying, so you’ve got no idea what you are paying $9.99 or $2.99 on..Version: 2.0.6

My favourite photo editing app, but....Love this app. It’s my go-to for editing my iPhone photos. I mostly take photos on my phone, then edit them on my iPad. However photo stream is not available in my album list, meaning I have to first save any pics I want to edit to a designated folder on my iPad. It works, but it’s a work around I’d prefer not to do. I’d be much easier to go straight to my photo stream from the app instead. Dear developers, please make this a feature?! Everything else is awesome..Version: 3.2

Moonstone for lifeI love this app so much - these filters brings more life to my pictures than any other photo edit filters I have used!! Thankyou so much 🙏.Version: 2.2.1

This is my favourite photo editing app ever!Easy to use with gorgeous filters and enough editing capabilities to make smartphone photos shine..Version: 4.9.3

When the lens you wanted doesn’t exist!ColorStory has made it possible to add feeling and capture the excitement of any image. Want to add a sky made out of candy floss and you’ve probably found the right app to create it! This all may sound un-realistic but each filter and effect allows you to set the tone so that you can subtly introduce it into your image, or just use a hint! A great app for creating social posts and one of the only app’s I have used where a palette of effects and filters have been able to mix together to add some extra sparkle! If you can’t tell a story with words, tell it in color!.Version: 4.1.5

Best editing app EVER100 times better then VSCO, looks way more natural and so easy to use. Awesome filters and features. Worth the money this app won’t let you down. I’m hooked. Love it..Version: 4.8.6

Really like this appI’ve only recently started using this app. I’ve never really like filters on Instagram and I was recommended this app. I’ve found the perfect filter that makes all of my photos look lovely. It great to be able to use the same filter to keep my brand consistent.Version: 4.8.4

Fantastic, my ONLY go to photo editing app!!!Some maybe giving this app quite a bad review, for the in app purchases and over the top filters. These filters ARE amazing, and you can edit the intensity of these filters too. But the latest update is simply AMAZING! It allows you to visually plan and set out your Instagram grid, allowing you to see what your Instagram will look like before publishing your posts to your account. I love it and use it EVERYDAY!!!.Version: 2.0

Best filter app I've usedGreat range of filters and effects, easy to use, keeps high picture quality..Version: 2.2.2

Best AppPhoto editing made fun and easy.Version: 2.0.2

Two thumbs up! 👍👍Wonderful app.Version: 4.9.6

MehMore free content please.Version: 3.1.4

Update has some problemsI have loved this app for some time. It’s my ‘go-to’ photo editing app, however I have lately had some issues with the new update, it freezes after I use the tilt and perspective tool. Hopefully this is fixed soon.Version: 4.0.1

Fave appThis is by far my fave filter app. So easy to use!.Version: 3.0

All time favourite photo editing appA color story is hands down my all time favourite photo enhancement app. it is absolutely beautiful with what it can do and how easy it is to use. the basic editing tools are simple and effective, and the filter and effects packs are absolutely out of this world. a color story takes my photos from 0-100 with such ease and inspires me to look for photo opportunities in such a different way, knowing what magic i can create with this powerful tool. there are always updates and new filter and effects packs being added so you are never short of inspiration. every single photo i take gets put through a color story and i cannot recommend it enough 🙌🏻.Version: 2.0

Love the Update!I have loved this app since it was first released. It is super user-friendly and easy to use. With tons of tools and incredible filter packages, A Color Story really brings out the brightness and depth of photos, which is otherwise often difficult with phone photography. I am able to transform dull and drab images in just seconds with a few filters and tweaks. I am a huge fan of the most recent update as well. Having the ability to view my photos in the grid before posting them to social media allows me to see how each photo I edit works with the others I have taken. This way, it is much easier to keep up with a consistent style and aesthetic. 10/10 would recommend..Version: 2.0.1

Perfect💪🏼💪🏼.Version: 4.9.8

Quick and easyLove it, it’s quick and easy! Digital filters are my fav!.Version: 4.9.1

Like the app a lotI really like the app and capabilities though I wish it had some of the elements Facetune and snapseed have to make it complete. That's why I gave it 4 (wanted to give 4.5 but won't allow me)..Version: 3.1.3

Good app!Good app, many in app purchases for filters but overall very content with it! Use this for all my pictures now..Version: 3.0.1

BeautifulThis app is perfection. The colors and the variety are amazing. Most photo editing apps focus on changing how you look completely. Make you thinner make you distort how you look. For me I love taking photos of my daughter. I don’t want to change her features. Or make her look different. But as she is a child sometimes my lighting is poor because I’m a mother taking photos on the fly. The color makes everything pop I can see her freckles better the landscape around her enhanced as well but not changing. My favorite features are her blue eyes and freckles but it’s hard for me to capture them. The amount of choices and color schemes help those things pop despite the photographer. All in all. Just a great app.Version: 4.3.2

Great filters and effectsI love that i can get all the beautiful pictures on the same app that i can edit the photos lighting & such. they also have an update so you can pre-plan your insta feed on a grid. definitely would recommend.Version: 4.9.5

Love this app but....I absolutely love this app. I’ve purchased all of the filters, and I use it multiple times a day. However, since the last update it crashes continuously in the middle of editing on my iPad pro. I can be one step away from being done with an edit and it will crash, or I can be on the first step of editing and it will crash. There really is no rhyme or reason to when it will crash, it just does. If this were fixed it would be 5 stars easy. On another note, it’s super simple to navigate and learn. I love that I can edit even the smallest things in a picture. I do wish there was a way to easily compare an original picture to the edited picture or even flash back one step to see the difference. Definitely love the app, just wish this bug would be fixed with crashing on the iPad Pro. I’ve restarted my device, I’ve checked for updates, and I’ve made sure the app is closed completely, and it’s still doing it..Version: 3.1.4

Love this app!Best photo editing app out there.Version: 4.5.4

Good app.Love this app for editing. Brings fantastic colours and variety to my photos. Love all the packs. Just wish that you could purchase all at a relatively low cost. Works out very expensive for what you get in comparison to other apps. Really hate apps with such subscriptions. Would prefer a one off fee & access to all. I don’t buy into any subscriptions. There are way to many & they end up costing a fortune..Version: 4.5.4

A good experienceDeeply enjoy this app You do fantastic things with the different filters. Would really like some more filters for darker styles like ‘dark academia’ style things. The mood selection are my most used few because they work so well for this Moody haunting creations..Version: 4.8.3

Light, airy and high key!Great app for achieving light and airy effects. There are so many filters to choose from. There are also many extra effects such as light effects, mists, framing and many more as well as basic editing tools. So much to explore and highly recommended..Version: 4.8.2

Superior photo editing app!I have been using this app for over a year now, and intend on continuing to this this indefinitely. I have tried most other paid apps as well, in fact I started out on other apps and finally landed here. For what it’s worth I can’t remember ever having the app be glitchy on me, as other reviews are stating, but also... new app updates are rarely flawless. The app itself is quite easy to understand, and once you have a few filters you enjoy and use routinely, you can save them into an easy to navigate folder instead of applying 100 different filters and wasting time (hello, me). I have purchased over 10 packs of filters, without regret. I use this app to edit photos when I’m too lazy to hop on the computer, and process a majority of my photos for a relatively successful lifestyle/art instagram. Highly recommended!.Version: 2.0

#TS7ISCOMINGI just downloaded this app because Taylor Swift used it. 😂.Version: 3.1

Great so farEasy to use and nice effects.Version: 4.9.3

My favorite photo app!I used to VSCO but now only ACS. The filters are beautiful and add polish to a photo without being over the top. I love that there are filter collections developed by photographers and creators that I know and follow on IG (Rebecca’s Seasons pack is my go-to). My only wish is that when browsing filter packs to buy, the example photos should show the before and after of the edited photo. It’s really hard to get an idea of what the filter might actually do when each example photo is different and there’s nothing to compare. This should be a really simple fix, just show half the photo unedited and half with the filter applied. I have bought packs before and then had them turn out pretty different from what I expected because I just can’t tell from the examples..Version: 3.3.2

I love this app purely for the framing function!I like being able to show a full photo with the framing function. I don’t like that Instagram crops images to fit a square, so when you add a frame it keeps the whole Photo and adds a white frame so you can upload it to Instagram with now edges missing.Version: 4.1.6

Great filtersGreat filters and light effects. I clearly need a lot more practice with blemish and object removal, but it’s a fun way to jazz up pics..Version: 4.9.3

I love this app!So many great features, ESPECIALLY bulk editing! Saves small businesses so much time. Sometimes the “touch” feature can glitch if you do too many steps but that’s the only issue I have had. Worth the money ✨.Version: 4.8.5

So many options, so much controlI do the annual subscription and I have for the last couple years - I used to buy packs individually but sometimes they didn’t turn out how I thought so I’m happy to be able to use everything available. There’s so much control which is nice - opacity of filters, being able to move and flip effects and even being able to change the warmth, brightness and saturation of a filter. This is my #1 photo editing app, I’ve stopped using everything else including VSCO and Afterlight 2. The adjust function is amazing, the curves tool helps so much to get the light perfectly where you want it. I’ve been a fan of ABM for at least a decade and they know what they’re doing when it comes to making photos beautiful. Also: even though they have the Filmm app, you can filter videos with this too, but there’s a lot less functions and options than with Filmm and you can’t preview the whole video/boomerang but if you want to make a small or fun change before posting an insta story, it’s great for that too. Highly recommend..Version: 4.3.1

AwesomeAwesome.Version: 4.9.3

Great app - recent update makes it difficultI’ve been using this app for a long time now, I have all the filters and have always loved it. It’s easy to use and easy to mix different styles. However the most recent update makes it harder to edit photos, especially your pre saved filters. There are too many steps involved especially if you are trying to use multiple at a time or trying to edit a bunch of photos in a row. Hopefully they will see this and make a change - I’d recommend being able to select the presets you built as a tab in the filters sections. I thought the saved option was it but instead it’s a square box above the tabs and you have to click into it every time you want to use a different preset. I still like this app but this could defer me to something else just bc I’m editing a lot of photos at once..Version: 4.0.1

Good app but a few minor extras would make it amazingI really like the filters and effects on this app. The only thing I wish is that I wish you could have a ‘brush’ to take the effect off certain areas of the picture. For example, I bought the confetti pack but I would like to use it in the background of the picture but it lays across the whole picture. You can move it about but a brush to wipe out the areas you don’t want or do want to use the effect would make this my most used app..Version: 4.8.3

Fab filters!I struggled for literally days looking for free presets from Lightroom and I simple couldn’t find any that I liked, I had downloaded the app before but didn’t really try the filters on my photos. Then today, I thought I would give it another go. Turns out, Key Lime was the perfect filter, it was like it was the filter I visioned in my head, the kind of colouring I wanted. I’m so happy I finally found the right filter for me, all thanks to this app!.Version: 3.1.3

All I use for editingThis is my go to for all of my photo editing for both my small bizz that I run and for my personal photos. I can’t tell you how many different apps I have tried for editing and this one hits it out of the park. It has all the elements that are essential and the filters both the free and the packs that they offer are actually flattering and worth the small fee. It’s perfect for quick and easy editing which I use for my shop as I want things to look bright and natural and there are so many fun options that you can play around with that I usually save for my own photos..Version: 4.7

Unique photo editing app I’ve been using since day 1I’ve used this since ABM released it and I love it. Totally unique filters, and they got ahead of the trend for sure. I have purchased nearly every upgrade/filter pack and love trying new things with the app. My only feedback is that my pics save pretty blurry/degraded quality even with only a minimal filter added on. When I upload the pics to Facebook after editing with ACS, they don’t look great, but on Instagram they are just fine. I spoke to other friends and it’s 50/50 if they experience this or not. Either way, this is just some honest feedback. I still love the app and use it every single day. I have never had issues with this crashing or any other tech issues otherwise! It’s so creative and fun!.Version: 4.8.2

All I need to edit photos and planGreat app, easy to use and some lovely filters available. Can upload a lot of photos to work out how to make your feed look the way you want and pre plan post. Such a handy app.Version: 4.3.3

Amazing app!So many filters to choose from and easy to use.Version: 4.9.3

Most Robust Photo Editing AppI’ve used multiple photo editing apps and this one is far and beyond the best. Being a photoshop action creator myself, I truly appreciate the subtle nuances of A Color Story. I appreciate the lovely aesthetics of the design. The presets are not over the top and create truly instagram-worthy edits. And it has curves! Say no more! The curves feature is essential for custom edits. I’ve enjoyed playing, experimenting, and editing my photos using this app. The only feature I would love to see implemented would be for the personalized saved editing presets to allow the user to remove individual steps in the preset formula. Sometimes a saved preset is perfect, minus one or two minor settings like exposure. I’m so thrilled to use this app and can’t wait to keep churning out beautiful, professional-looking phone edits. Thanks for the incredible thought and detail built into this user-friendly app!.Version: 2.0

Best editing app aroundThis app not only comes with free filters and free tutorials and is easy to use but it’s just AMAZING. I used to have like three apps to do different stages of quick editing and now this app has it all. The packs for extra filters are inexpensive and worth it. Highly recommend buying Elsie’s packs when you’ve downloaded. Molly :).Version: 2.2.2

LovePerfect filter.Version: 4.9.3

Great app!I don’t usually post reviews. However, I have had this app for a year now and love it. It’s gives so many different options to enable you to edit your pictures to your perfect preference - even on the free version. I have now subscribed to open up the in app purchases and all filters. It’s that good. I haven’t come across another app that matches up to ColorStory..Version: 4.0.1

Favorite photo app!I love a color story. I’ve been using it since they first released it and have loved every update they’ve added since then. As with any app, there’s occasionally been a bug here or there. But honestly they always fix them within a few days. The added features are so fun and have really added some fabulous personality to many of my photos and memories. Only complaint is having to buy every new Photo pack!! But also they clearly put A LOT of love and work into each pack. I’ve probably spent about $20 total on the app and it’s an investment worth spending! Still light years EASIER and CHEAPER than photoshop! (Do not care/have time to learn that jazz right now.) Highly recommend this app. Start with the freebies and add filter packs that fit your own personal aesthetic. It’s fun, it’s functional, and it’s constantly growing! 5 stars!.Version: 2.0.1

All you needColorStory is my go to photo editing app- so much so I pretty much ignore the others loaded on my phone. It’s worth noting you can edit videos too (a feature other apps often ignore) Can’t recommend highly enough..Version: 2.0

I love it so muchIt does everything it says it amazing and you dont have to pay at all one funny thing is they spelt colour wrong in the title lol but we have all bin there so yeah its just amazing and there us nothing to rant or be negative about its just an app if positivensess and happiness and joy and amazement i just love it and could go on for days i really would recommend getting it and sharing it because its all worth-it i will never delete it lol i really hope you get it my name is mary btw.Version: 3.3.3

FabulousLove it even more the more I use it!.Version: 3.1.3

Good AppI like this app a lot for editing photos, especially when you want your Instagram feed to have a cohesive look. There are 2 things that dampen the user experience: -The CONSTANT ads for purchasing new packs. I get it, apps need to make money. This one berates you with new packs in every single use. The pop-ups and banners are a big nuisance. -No preview of filters on your own photos. The new pack previews show filters only on high quality photos and on different pictures (vs using the different filters on the same picture so you can see the difference), making it almost impossible to envision what they’d look like on your own photos or what the filters look like at all since you’re not familiar with the original version of the sample photos..Version: 3.0.2

Great AppI use this exclusively for editing my photos. You can do a lot with just the basic set of filters and additions, but they also roll out filter colabs every so often to keep things new and fresh! Well worth the money on those for sure. It doesn’t just have filters and light leaks/confetti though, it also has some cropping, perspective and color tweaking tools, comparable to the things you might find in photoshop. Any bugs you might experience are always quickly fixed, and they are constantly trying to make the app better. In 2.0 they have us the ability to add a photo to our Instagram grid to see how it looks with the rest of our photos.. with out actually having to upload the photo to Instagram! I LOVE THIS. It also allows you to schedule posts!.Version: 2.0.1

Ease of use and no hidden costs or dramaI’m very new to the app but I’m finding it easy to use. Any additional costs are straight forward and reasonably priced in my view. No hidden costs which has earned my respect and appreciation! Great app for colour!.Version: 2.2

Affordable quality filtersLove the range and that you can reduce the filter to how much you want it. Most packs have a variety of effects in the same category so can always find one that works well with the photo.Version: 3.3

My go to editing appI keep on receiving questions if I like the app and I never review cause I am not the type (I do know I left a bad review once here due to misinformation - edited out now) but I must say that this is forever my first choice editing app. Prices are affordable, once you get the filters they are yours, I like that the app is constantly update and improved and I am definitely not choosing anything else instead. I am a bit old school, I like to stick to what I like and I don’t really like to try new things so this app is now my forever baby. I’d recommend it to anyone, is worth the “investment” and it’s cute and easy to use!.Version: 3.3.6

Love this app5 star!.Version: 4.5.4

Great App For Up and Coming PhotographersGreat App! I’ve recently started out in photography and this app has plenty of tools and tips and tricks for editing some wonderful photos. Whilst there are in app purchases which I’m always sceptical of, there are a fair amount of useful tools that come with the app regardless that you don’t have to pay for. The more you use it the more inclined you are to make some in app purchases. Hopefully the developers will keep it as it is as it’s very useful and an amazing app to use..Version: 2.1

I love colour story!😊Colour story is without doubt the best app I’ve ever used for editing photos. Despite being a free app, the control you have over editing never feels limited & it’s only ever extra packs etc which are up for in app purchase, everything you get with the free version is good for creating well edited pictures. As a blogger, I use this app for both my instagram pictures & my blog posts - I love how you can save an unlimited amount of edits on the app, it makes it very simple to batch edit a bunch of photos for your Instagram so that they are keeping up with the theme you’re going for, and it helps my blog look more consistent. I also LOVE that it has an Instagram planning section - that’s something I use a LOT & I find it incredibly helpful. I haven’t got any faults for colour story!.Version: 3.0.3

AwesomeJust started using this . But so far so good !!.Version: 4.0.7

My fave photo editing appLove this app, easy to use and photos always look great.Version: 4.9.5

Enjoying it!Came to it through Instagram and am loving experimenting with different filters..Version: 2.2.1

Probably the best filter app I’ve usedThe range of filters are amazing and there is so much creative control with this app!! The only caveat is that sometimes it does affect the quality of the picture which is something I’m sure you’ll update soon enough. Great job!.Version: 3.3

Good app with iffy featuresThis app is good with nifty features and filters. However it’s a little pricey for the “effects” packs that are constantly being promoted within the app. The are many other apps that offer the same things at a reasonable price..Version: 4.1.0

My Go-To Photo Editing App!The best filters, easy to use, so simple and pretty. I just wish the “start again” button was bigger. I have to hit it at least three times because it’s so small 😅.Version: 2.0.3

Favourite appI use ColorStory before posting my photos to Instagram. I love the tools and filters that allow me to take my snaps to the next level..Version: 3.3.6

Fun AppIt is easy to use and just helps “fix” your photos for your social media feeds..Version: 4.9.6

LOVE this app!Been a subscriber for a while now, and I absolutely love this app. I’ve been a photographer for over four+ years, and when I am looking to update my portfolio photo, this is my go-to app since the filters make my photos look absolutely fabulous. This is mainly the only feature I use, but it’s definitely worth the price because there is so much more you can do! I’m also a HUGE fan of AI, and the developers have done an amazing job of incorporating AI into the interface. This is one out of three applications that I mostly use to integrate some of my photography with AI. While I don’t believe in the art features that some of these apps use nowadays (such as typing out an entire description and having AI create it. Seriously, what’s even the point of that? It totally takes away from those who actually work very hard to create masterpieces with their hands), but I will say that these days, AI is a necessity and can help you turn your photos into a beautiful work of art without even having it create the work for you. Instead of shunning the introduction of Artificial Intelligence, with the mixture of photography and the help of AI, this application and many others truly make the integration and mixture of both worlds an absolutely beautiful thing, and it’s a very welcome change that can be easily embraced by photographers all around the world if they learn to adapt accordingly. Thanks for this app! It’s truly great!.Version: 4.9.2

Throw away photoshop!The app is so powerful. How do they do it? It has lots of tools that I used to rely on photoshop for but now I can quickly edit my pics in minutes. Hey I’m no high end photographer but for what I need - bright colourful web friendly photos. It’s perfect! My only tiny niggle developers is make it a bit quicker to go onto the next photo. A faster route to the library to pick the next one would be fab! Cheers guys..Version: 3.1.3

UPDATE: Would be my favorite but....Wow I LOVE this freaking app. Now that the issues are fixed it is worth every penny. Thank you for being one of the best available apps out there! I sell on Etsy, and I have been searching for an app that will let me batch edit, with preset filters that I love. This app fits that bill, except… I will try to do a batch and it and it will take FOREVER, sometimes shutting down the app and restarting it, reloading pictures, etc. etc. etc. just to get the filters pulled up and usable. I’m not sure why there is such a massive delay, but it is draining for sure. In the time that it takes for me to wait for the effects and filters to actually pull up and be usable, I could’ve edited single pictures by themselves. It defeats the main reason that I love this app! If they fix that, it’s five stars..Version: 4.2.2

Love it!I was looking for an app to help me not only with filters, but with organising my grid too. A big bonus is that unlike other apps (such as Preview app) you can buy individual filter packs. How amazing is that! Other apps want to tie you in paying each month or year. I don’t want a subscription- another bill to add to the many others I have, I love to pay upfront and own it. There are hundreds of filters to choose from (as every pack comes with approximately 10 filters for the category it’s under). So obviously you can buy the packs you need rather than paying every month for the ones you don’t. It’s a no brainer - A Colour Story all the way for me! 👏🏼.Version: 3.3

Brought my social media to a whole other levelThis app is wonderful! I use it all the time and it has helped my instagram feed look much better. The app has so many unique and creative touches that really separates it from other photo editing apps I use/have used. I would and have recommended to friends and family. It is nice to have an app that allows you to not just edit photos but illustrate a feeling you had during the time the photo was captured. From happy, saturated and bright to muted, peaceful and calm this app has everything I need to present my photos the way I experienced them. I find this especially helpful because it is often hard to differentiate a person from an account online and this app helps me feel like I am presenting myself in a way that is more true to myself. Anyways, I love it. It’s great..Version: 2.0.1

Great features and easy to useWith ColorStory, I've been able to edit existing pictures and make them look the way I want to without having to take all new photos for my new business Instagram account..Version: 4.1.5

Love all the presetsA great selection of filters. I don’t use any other editing app except this one!.Version: 4.9.3

The Only Photo Editing App I UsePartially b/c it’s literally the only photo editing app that will load my photo library, either *at all* or w/o a 2-3 min wait. Seriously. But that speaks to how great this app is: I have 5 other editing apps installed that I’ve favored at one time or another and none of them load my library as fast as ACS does. When ACS was still new, I actually experienced the opposite problem: it would load slower than the other apps, but still never more than maybe 15-20 secs. Yet another point in their favor: it’s gotten better over time!! The filters are the best out of all the other apps I’ve used, and the effects are so awesome! YOU WILL NOT REGRET THIS PURCHASE! They keep getting better and better! Thanks ACS!.Version: 4.0.2

Addictive FunI don’t want to brag about this app too much otherwise everyone will start creating amazing photos with this easy to use and brilliant app..Version: 4.9.5

Best appThe best app everrrrerr.Version: 2.0.1

Easy to use but full of functionLove how easy it is to edit my pics on the go but still be packed full of features. Recommend buying some of the packs to play around but can easily do on the essentials as well..Version: 3.3

Love!Best photo editing app ever! Makes my photos look beautiful and somehow sparkly and natural at the same time! 👏.Version: 3.1.3

Great!Lots of filters and options. Can sometimes be slow/glitchy and shut down the app while editing..Version: 4.9.3

Best Best AppYour life will never be the same !!!! Easy Peasy , This App Judy gets better and better. The update is great and easier to use. I li e how ACS will give you a run down on each colour group, really helps when you are looking for a particular colour scheme..Version: 4.0.2

My fave photo editing app!I’ve tried all of the major photo editing apps out there and none are as user friendly or visually appealing as A Color Story. I downloaded the app the day it was released and have purchased every plus pack. As long as my camera roll photos aren’t awful (and sometimes even if they are!) it makes any photo look better. I can instantly get brighter whites and bolder colors with tools, and can throw on great warm, and vintage filters for the clean but seventies look I like for my photos. The new update includes a grid for Instagram planning and it’s the app I so needed as a social media manager. Love love love A Color Story and couldn’t recommend it enough..Version: 2.0.1

GreatBrilliant app and how wonderful that we can now also edit videos!.Version: 4.9.2

FinallyThe best app for me. As a photographer I've been downloading many photo apps and now I found you so this is it hopefully it will never change or charge in the future. This is an amazing app for bloggers and people like me who needs the easy way to make the photo beautifuly and naturally brings out the colors. I’m going to delete most of unwanted apps that I never use. Thank you and hopefully it stays this way. I will definitely recommend this to all my family and friends. The only prob I have is by the time I saved I can’t re start to go back to home to open another picture so I have to end it and open the app again. Which is kinda confusing. Thank you again. This is 💯 stars ⭐️ for me though. Love it!.Version: 4.0.4

Love this appSo easy and great results.Version: 3.2

Color me Happy !!I’ve had this app suggested to me for ages, finally downloaded it. SO happy. Yes you have to pay for filter packs but the packs are gooooood, they have collabed with some of my fave IG accounts so my feed is looking pretty and bright and colourful and I Looove it. Such fantastic support too, with prompt friendly emails back when I emailed through a suggestion for a future update. One of my fave apps..Version: 2.0

Easy to use and great value for money!Excellent usability and the presets are so varied and I think it’s amazing value for the subscription price..Version: 3.3.5

KlalaaGreat!.Version: 4.9.2

Love itIt’s being really fun to use the app.Version: 4.5.4

My go-to photo enhancing app!With so many features, the Color Story app is my first and only stop when it comes to getting my photos ready to share on social media or even just close family and friends. A library of filters, but also the editing tools you would see in photoshop like curves, brightening and sharpening, just to name a few. The creators are fast to respond to customers, which is an example of how much thought they put into not only this app but their customers. You’ll LOVE a Color Story!.Version: 2.0.1

Hands down the best editing appI never leave reviews haha, but I had to for this!! Has all the things I need in one app - and I’ve never found more reasonably priced presets so expertly done (with a diverse range too!)! Love the work of the A Beautiful Mess gals <3.Version: 4.3.4

So good!!I really love the app however the filters are expensive and there is not much choice of filters. The aesthetic of the app is really nice and I love the design. I think that this app could be even better if it had drawing tools and the option to add stickers and layer photos and cut things out and paste them on. But overall I love using this app to touch up and brighten photos..Version: 3.3.1

The best photo editing appSimple, beautiful filters, nice aesthetic..Version: 4.9.3

BrilliantGreat appearance, so many editing options and extra effects for adding a creative touch wherever you need. I love that I can create anything from really natural barely touched images to creative and complex designs in the one app. I use this app all the time..Version: 4.0.7

Love this app!I use this app almost every day and have done for a few years now. It’s really straightforward for doing some basic image editing on your phone..Version: 4.8.9

Love it!So many options 😱 I use this daily!!!.Version: 2.0.3

Almost perfect!I love this app and use it for 99% of my editing on my iPhone and iPad! I just wish that in tools, on the ‘shadows’ option that I could make the shadows in a picture darker, rather than only being able to make them lighter. That’s literally the only reason I can’t use this app as my sole editor, honestly..Version: 2.0.6

Easy to use!I really love this app. I wish more filters were free, but having said that, I can really do a lot with it. It has taken my photos quickly to the next level..Version: 4.9.6

Love it 😀So many options.Version: 4.9.8

Almost(!) perfect editing appAs a massive fan of several other filter and editing apps for years I haven’t yet figured out why this is my “go to” app nowadays. The filters are amazing and the editing pretty intuitive. My only negative is the limit of crop styles (I almost exclusively use a 3:2 or 2:3 crop which isn’t a standard one in the app). With that crop I would have no need to use other apps for editing and filters..Version: 4.8.2

Great Colour Adjust app!I generally use the free version and the filters and features that come with it are enough and are easy to use! However if you wanted to add any more of the packs it’s not too expensive and doesn’t involve a tying subscription which is great! Would definitely recommend!.Version: 4.5.4

Love it ❤️For me hands down one of the best editing app! Loads of well built extremely customisable filters and excellent curve adjustments. I use it in combination with VSCO depending on the result I wanna get. Framing could be improved adding a slider with a numeric scale instead of the pinch to resize, which makes consistency on the frame size next to impossible. Other than that, perfect app! Keep up the great work 😊.Version: 4.6

Love ColorStoryColorStory is my go-to app for all my social media image editing; my ch more subtle than other apps and allows finer adjustments even the basic filters and adjustment tools. Love the cropping feature for all formats. And that’s the FREE version. Very user friendly, quick and easy interface. Thoroughly recommend..Version: 4.9.2

The best photo editing app out thereI have been using the color story app for years and as someone who uses photoshop in my everyday job, this app has all the best elements that you would use on photoshop to make your photos really pop, except it’s much simpler to use and it’s free! I never ever print or post a picture without first editing it with this app, I can’t recommend it highly enough! 💖💖💖.Version: 4.1.5

So helpful! Great quality!I bought a filter and it didn’t add it for a while... I really panicked and I thought I got scammed... But I was really relieved to see that I was not alone and others were experiencing the same problem. The developers of this app seemed to take it very seriously and fix it almost immediately. It just shows and reflects in the quality of this app. It is so unbelievably helpful, especially for business owners who are not social media gurus and would like to make their instagrams look pretty. You have to buy a lot of their features but it looks like you get what you pay for and it’s worth it. - you don’t have to deal with any ads which I love!.Version: 4.1.3

User friendly for the tech noviceSuper easy edits in one touch. Takes some time to learn all the features but even when you use the same feature again and again, makes editing your images so easy! Love.Version: 4.1.6

Love Colour Story App! 🌈Love using Colour Story - 5 stars! ⭐️.Version: 3.1.4

Great app but need help!I love this app, it's so good for editing personal and business photos. I was really enjoying using the function to save my fave edits though, and now it seems to be missing! How do I save my edits now? I want to be able to use the same edit on different photos. Its my fave part of the app..Version: 2.0.1

Excellent AppAmazing app, especially love seasons filters as well as stardust.Version: 4.9.2

Just playingI just wish a few more options were free to know if it is worth purchasing. But so far I like..Version: 2.2.1

Best photo editing app I’ve ever used!I love this app. I’ve been using for over a year. I have tried many similar apps. ColorStory is the easiest and the best out of all I’ve use so far. The filters are great and the editing functions are so easy to use - there a loads of functions but they are all laid out really clearly. I use mainly ColorStory for Instagram and it’s kept all my photo colours really consistent and fresh looking. The only limitations are that you can’t play through a video when editing - this make it really hard to know how much to adjust the settings/filters for the video. You also can’t edit a video if it’s longer that 60 secs. Apart for that I still would highly recommend..Version: 4.4.1

Great!Greta app.Version: 4.9.1

A True StandoutOne of the few apps in the overcrowded photography space worth the money - I rank it in my top five along with the subscription only VSCO X, MuseCam, Colourtone and RNI Films. Like those others though, You do need to buy all the filter and effects packs to make the most of it..Version: 3.0

This app is EVERYTHING for photosI tell all my friends to download this app for photo editing. You have a wide array of tools in just the basic version, so it’s amazing regardless whether you elect to purchase any additional filters. The 2.0 update does not take away or layer any functionality like some “updates” do. The look is a little cleaner. Best of all, the update will make it possible to add text in conjunction with the new app coming out within the next month or so. Similar to the superiority of ACS over other photo editing apps, the new text-over-photos app is supposed to let you customize all kinds of things (e.g. ombré text, changing brushes, etc.) Between the two, I don’t think I’ll keep other photo apps on my phone. LOVE A Color Story..Version: 2.0

!❤️!I used to look at people’s edited photos and wonder why they would pay for that, but now I can edit my photos even better for free!! There is absolutely no skill needed whatsoever, it’s so simple and so effective!! One of the best apps I’ve ever downloaded for sure!.Version: 3.1.3

Problem fixed!Update 8/17- Got a prompt response from the developers, who explained a small bug with the update that has since been fixed. They recommended updating the app and trying the restore purchases option again, and this time it worked! All my prior purchases are there again, and the app is working the way it always has for me. Big props to the team for responding with a solution so quickly. I am happily using this app again. This app used to be fantastic, but as of yesterday’s update it seems to have forgotten all of the filters I’ve purchased over the past year and a bit. Now it’s prompting me to either buy ACS+, or buy all the filters again individually. Since I don’t plan to buy everything for a second time, I’m going to have to say goodbye to this app until this gets sorted out. Few things are as frustrating as being prompted to pay for things you’ve already purchased..Version: 4.1.4

Best photo appI use this daily - it’s super easy and makes editing pictures fun and effortless. I love that you can buy extra editing packages for only a few dollars but it’s not necessary. Highly recommend!.Version: 4.8

100%Love this app! Use it all the time..Version: 4.9.6

The everyday filter is a saviourEasy to use app with some fantastic free filters. I’ve tried the free pro trial before and there’s some great premium filters too if you’re editing quite a lot but for me it’s just not worth it. Love the grid feature too so I can see what my post will look like alongside my others on Instagram.Version: 4.0.3

My Go To EditorI literally adore this app & use it daily to enhance my photos. You can save your favourite filters and get to create your own style so your photos have continuity! Some reviews say it’s crap - it’s really not. You have to adjust the amount of a filter based on your original images (if super dark use same filter twice) or adjust manually to a level exposure then add a filter and most of the time a combo of filters works best. Worth every penny and I’ve bought the seasons app which I use January on all my outdoor photos so is worth the small cost. 😊.Version: 2.0

IncredibleThis app has changed the game. I often have to use my phone to film screen tests and self tapes for acting castings- and I always hate the lighting!! In the tools section of this app I can brighten the video, sharpen it and make sure it’s looking as close to HD perfect as it can on a phone!.Version: 3.2

So easy to use!So easy to use!.Version: 4.9.5

FunEasy to use app..Version: 4.9.8

Filters are great, could use some upgradesIf it weren’t for just one or two really useful editing tools in Snapseed, A Color Story would be the only editing app I use for planning my IG feed. There are a couple of tiny things I wish they would change. The one that is most frequently annoying to me, is that I can’t do the press and hold to compare the original photo to he edited one until after I’ve committed to the edit. I mean, obviously I can undo it if I don’t like it, but as I’m scrolling through filters, trying to decide which looks best, it would be helpful I I could do a quick press and hold to continuously compare to the original, not just the filter before it. Otherwise, I really do love the app. I find the filters to be subtle and professional looking..Version: 3.3

One of my favouritesI use it almost daily and love the range of functionality, simplicity & ease of the interface, options for quick edits & improvements or quite high levels of fine-tuning. I also really like the save to grid option, which is the distinguishing aspect that makes it my go-to over other similar apps. As the title says, one of my favourites....Version: 2.2

Weird Issue with LoadingI love this app but I have this constant issue. I will open the app and usually try to batch edit but it also happens when editing one photo, I’ll choose my photo/s, click on the filters, and they all appear as a blank white screen. It’s like the filters aren’t loading? And then when I click on the filter it turns my photo into a blank white pic. I have to close and reopen the app about three or four times to get it to finally load the filters. Then other times it works just fine on the first try. I do a lot of IG marketing and use this app solely as my photo editor and it’s getting really annoying that it doesn’t work. I would love a update to fix this. Otherwise this app is great. And yes I’m always updating the app to the current version..Version: 4.1.6

Fabulous appHappy to have been using this app when it first came out. I continue to use it for nearly every photo I post. 🇨🇦.Version: 4.9.5

Total must for Instagram business ownersSeriously takes Instagram pages to the next level. I noticed a huge increase in the reception to my products and even my personal posts when I started using this app. It’s easy as to understand and has so many awesome features. I don’t need any other photo editing app. It’s all there and it’s all I’ll ever use!.Version: 2.0.1

Love this appMy go to app for adjusting photos! Love their filters.Version: 4.9.3

My fave photo editing appSo many options, great filter packs. Easy to use interface, many options with choice for more, great tutorials & support. The only teeny tiny change I would love to see is the push the photo to see the original before editing, because if you’ve added a few filters but still want to check how it compares to the original it can be hard to recall which ones & which edit strengths you’ve put over the top of the photo. Otherwise I live in this app when editing my photos.Version: 3.1.4

Lovely editing app!I absolutely love A Color Story to edit my iPhone photos before posting them on Instagram. It has a multitude of filter packs (however quite pricey as you have to buy them individually), extra effects and editing tools. I love the new update with the option to save your photos to a grid & plan your insta feed. One element I miss is being able to tap on the photo to see the version before applying a change (you can do this on other apps and Instagram as well and it’s super helpful!). Now you can only see your current version vs the original by tapping on the photo being edited..Version: 3.2

Powerful tool for improving your photosI love this app - it’s a total saviour for so many of my photos and videos that have been taken in less than ideal (especially dark) conditions. Is easier and quicker than uploading the photos to a computer to tweak in Photoshop/Lightroom, and does a stellar job. The level to which you can process is very sophisticated. It makes everyone look gorgeous without doing any crazy smoothing or unnatural filtering, and can make food photos look incredible. It’s such a game-changer..Version: 4.2.2

Favourite AppSo many filters and affects. Full version worth every penny!.Version: 4.9.2

Great app, missing a few thingsI’m an artist and use my phone to take and edit reference photos frequently, so I’ve tried quite a few photo editing apps. Because I'm an artist (and other contributing factors) I’m poor and can’t justify spending money on a bunch of apps and subscriptions and whatnot, so I use what’s available for free. Color Story is, perhaps unsurprisingly, the best app I’ve found for editing color, contrast, temperature, and exposure. The free filters (and ability to adjust the intensity of said filters) are pretty decent, with a few stand outs, and the free effects aren’t bad either. So what’s it missing? The big two for me are easy blemish editing and controlled blurring. It’s irritating to have to edit many of my photos in multiple applications. But hey, for free, I’ll take what I can get and this really is a great, intuitive, simple, but fairly comprehensive photo editing app..Version: 2.0.2

Great App!!! Tons of options!I have used this app since it came out and it has become my go to app for editing pictures. When I first started using it I mainly used the filters I had purchased, but now that I have used the app for a while, I have learned how to edit photos using the settings too and I love the control I can have over the end results! I also love the variety of options I can use and how my pictures turn out. There really is a huge variety of picture styles to choose from. I also love that the app creators are always finding new things to add and listen to the suggestions made by app users. I highly recommend this app!!!.Version: 2.0

Great updateEasier to use.Version: 4.0.1

Best FiltersAbsolutely love the app! The collection of filters is fantastic, even the basic ones do wonders for my photos..Version: 3.0.2

Best personalisation editing appBest app to really personalise photos.Version: 3.1

Love this appI use this App all the time - Love all the simple yet beautiful and subtle changes the different filters can make. I’m probably only using just part of the creativity it offers.Version: 4.5.3

Why not the date of the photo created?I love the app but my only gripe is that it saves as the date that it is edited, not the date of the actually photo taken. E-mailed customer service asking if there was an option to save the edited photo as date taken instead of date edited and the response was “Thanks for your question! Since many of our users like editing their photo and sharing immediately to Instagram, A Color Story records the date as when the photo was edited. Unfortunately, there isn’t a way to change the date. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause!” Yeah.. it is an inconvenience since I don’t have the time to edit the same day as the photo was taken I have to go back and find the date of the photo I edited and go edit the date on the computer when I get the chance and that makes it even more difficult to keep photos and videos organized and harder to find when trying to make photo year books or anything like that. Definitely something this app needs to work on. At least have an on and off option if “many” of their users don’t worry about the time stamp. Especially if I’m paying for this app..Version: 4.0.5

Wonderful creative tool!I’m grateful that this app exists - I am able to edit my photos with more nuance and precision ❣️.Version: 4.9.2

AmazingSo easy to use, so many incredible features, and one of the only apps I’ve ever used that doesn’t give you ‘tacky’ edits. 10/10..Version: 4.9.8

MOST AMAZING EASY TO USE APPI'd recommend this app to anyone! In fact, I wrote a whole blog post about it and all the features that I love! The new update has batch editing, a grid layout to make sure your feed is nice and pretty and the best filters. This app helps me plan out and edit my entire Instagram feed and people even think I’m Insta famous because it looks so well! My fav filters are essentials and blush. Plus I love that once you edit your photo, you can save that edit as a "preset" just like in a desktop computer in Lightroom. Once your ready to edit your next photo, you can go to recent edits or saved edits and use those for your photo editing. The app is great and Id recommend it to anyone! Especially those color lovers! I just paid for ACS+ and it’s totally worth the $2 monthly payment..Version: 3.0
