VNTG: Vintage Photo Editor for Negative User Reviews

✓ What The Heck - Bigly Disappointed* Update - Can you at least offer landscape and portrait in addition to square on V-460? I love the old version of this app. I used it several times a week. It was so flexible in terms of sizing (landscape or portrait) and filters. This new version is so confusing I don’t even know where to start. I bought one thinking it was a one time fee but no, you either but one at a time or subscribe. I have no idea what all those cameras are and don’t want to know. I’m interested in graphics, not camera history. And, they make the interface clunky, confusing and tiresome to use. Come on folks! At least give legacy users the opportunity to keep using the older, better, friendlier version. Call it lite or something. I would even pay a one time fee for it..Pet5248Version: 5.0.1

✓ Was better beforeI used to use this for a certain template but now almost all the templates cost money now. Instead I just got a different app.. it was good before at least..NagskabsjajagsjVersion: 5.2.2

✓ Idk why the update changed the bordersIn the new update they gave a name to the border that I always use which is CL40. The only problem is that CL 40 has no color options like it had before. Maybe I’ll get used to this update like I’ve always done.Myr.aiVersion: 4.0.1

✓ Favorite frames goneI love this app, I’ve had it for a few years now, but have noticed that my favorite frames are gone. I see in other comments something about InstaLab pro membership. I do not see that option in app. How do I get info on the Pro version?.Shelbean64Version: 4.1

✓ Loved until it made you start PayingI used this so much!!! It was my go to. Unfortunately they started charging to be able to use any of the borders but before you can use any and it was free. Now I have to go back to PicsArt and edit them with Polaroid frames :( so sad. I’ll never forget the old you. Lol.Smsza44Version: 5.0.1

✓ AppsSucks i already bought a lot on this and now i cant use anything and ask to be pro again, last version is better than this. dont waste ur money..Bunso bernVersion: 5.0.1

✓ I loved the old one but this new one...This new ones organization I just hate it. It’s not nearly as easy as it was before for choosing frames. Now you have to choose one and then pick the pictures. Before you could pick the picture and then try on multiple different frames can now you have to pick one set of frame and then the picture so you’re locked into that frame and if you want to choose different you have to restaurant and it’s just inconvenient and slower and awful.GameReviewer898989Version: 5.1.2

✓ Kinda glitchyI really like this app and all the things you can create within it. But I’m finding it really frustrating that you can’t go back and edit text?! If I’m putting multiple text boxes, there doesn’t seem to be a way to go and edit a text box you’ve already clicked done on. I also can’t seem to edit the placement of the photo within the frame. If I want to move the image down or up to recompose, I have to start all over again. I also find that some icons do not respond upon first tap, resulting in needing to tap it 7-8 times in order for it to respond. In particular export, and import..LilredamberVersion: 4.8

✓ Insta labI got this because it looked great but when I went on it you have to pay for everything.Roisin_hVersion: 4.2.1

✓ Is better to have a real Polaroid one step 2It’s better to have something real on your hands, a thing to feel, a real 600 film.IlloalVersion: 3.20

✓ Loved it until....It now adds filters and there’s no way to use the original picture. Love the frames but I paid for the app and don’t appreciate having filters put on with no option to simply use original photo..Shell239Version: 2.45

✓ Great but fix the text thickness🙏🏼It's great but can you bring back the text thickness? so that it looks real? other than that I would rate 5 stars. // (Still no text thickness, please bring it back.).KatreesxVersion: 2.20

✓ I downloaded one app and since has changed about 5 timesI downloaded an app and paid 3 years ago what was supposed to be a one time fee. It’s since changed a couple of times. Not as simple as before. Too many choices and now I have to pay again!? What the actual!?! Not cool!.Makeupaf85Version: 5.0.1

✓ Terrible UpdateI used to use this app every single day. It was super quick and easy to create Polaroid-like photos for my photo journal. Now with the update I can’t use the only two fonts I like without having to pay $7.49 a month to get rid of the watermark. I would have paid that for a one-off purchase fee, because I liked the app so much. But I’m not paying that monthly. Why suddenly start charging users for editing tools that were free to use before? There are other editing/journaling apps I’ll download and use if I have to pay..TazzFFscVersion: 4.0

✓ Delivery TimeI have ordered pictures for the first time on the 7th September and the delivery was supposed to be on the 14th September. But I still haven’t received my purchase ?? Could I get a refund or when will they arrive?.Mithula5Version: 4.8

✓ WARNING : The free trial is a scam!I tried the premium features on this app out as it offered a three day free trial. I played around and decided it wasn’t for me so cancelled the subscription after only a few hours (it clearly said “cancel any time”) but I was charged for a whole year’s subscription. The App Store said I was not eligible for a refund and when I emailed the app help service they said they would look into it but I have heard nothing further from them and have still not had a refund. I would advise to stay away from this app..TeanRobertsVersion: 4.6.1

✓ Don’t trust Polaroid.Proven with their last app, Polaroid does not care about anything but money. They had a wonderful app with in app purchases that was destroyed with a bad update. They re released it, never honored the purchases then took it down from the store. Might as well just throw money away, or better yet give it to a deserving charity this holiday season..Jonnie SparkelVersion: 2.95

✓ BlackBeautyUpset at the fact that I have been trying to retrieve my prime package for weeks now. I purchased the app, and now I’m not able to upload. I have no problems with this app. Just a bit upset that after me having to reset my whole phone and download an app the I previously purchased to not be able to use it. Baffles me..Agape-LoveVersion: 2.85

✓ MehIt’s a decent app, like the filters and what not...BUT, the in-app purchases are stupid, app makers get better likes/reviews when you put stuff in ur app that the COMMUNITY wants, like NO IN-APP purchases.😵😵😵🤕🤕🤕👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎🤮🤮🤮 If you buy into the description crap, then go ahead and buy this app, i mean the filters and stuff are cute, but i WON’T pay the money for more filters and picture frames...i also want to complain about the developers of this app. bunch a brats a wrote a comment and asked for them to respond back, they just said Hi. Thanks for this and that yada yada. Hope you enjoy this app. Like um SIS?? anyway don’t buy into this crap.Soccer_lover ⚽️❤️Version: 3.05.1

✓ Already paid for the appWhile happy to see this app rebrand and update, I was less than happy to see that after relaunch, I am expected to pay again. Not good!.DradnyVersion: 5.0.1

✓ Too expensiveI enjoyed using this app occasionally but it is now £3.99 a month or be prepared to put up with a load of ads which I won’t so unfortunately it will be deleted.AnickdotalVersion: 5.0.1

✓ Used to be great as InstaLab, now a subscription money grabTip: Search on the App Store for “Instants” instead. This app has been renamed from InstaLab, which USED to be a really nice, ad-free Polaroid “simulation”. Now it has a bunch of looks (“virtual cameras”) that require watching terrible, annoying ads or paying $5 PER MONTH. I would pay $5 for the app, but $5 per month?!?!.EddyGeez!Version: 5.0.1

✓ Why would you add filters?!The app was great before but now every time I import a picture a filter automatically goes over it and ruins the quality of my picture!!! If there was an option to not add a filter it would’ve been fine but their isn’t so now I can’t use the app anymore because the quality just isn’t as good :’(.La_vaneeeVersion: 2.60.2

✓ It’s okayI really wanted just the frames really, but when you select the shape you want, you get that effect on top of the pic. I feel like you should be able to control more of the effect or non at all on the picture. And this is kinda expensive for what it is..Nik~NakVersion: 2.60

✓ Might be nice - if it worked.Tried on both an iPad Air 2, and iPad Pro. The app opens but if you click on either the camera icon or import photo icon it crashes..JennLynn1Version: 2.35

✓ Too much to try for realIt’s a shame that you don’t get to experiment a little more with the free options (literally two sizes). It’s a little steep in price to take a leap of faith to buy the rest.Fhpeace1Version: 3.15

✓ Rip offSubscription to use filters? what a joke. dont buy this..EgomodVersion: 2.40

✓ It was okayWhen i first got the app, it was great, did what i wanted, but now they want you to pay for everything, to use a different style of frame u have to pay. They called this “minor improvements” to the app but it’s just greedy..Swaggy cupcakesVersion: 5.1

✓ Making ChangesDifficult to change. Had to keep re-starting..Super Blond AbsVersion: 2.75.1

✓ Bring back Nostalgic filter!!Please bring back the “Nostalgic” filter! I purchased one of the newer Polaroid filters in the app but the border is so grey compared to the original white/ nostalgic filter :/ I really loved the app and filter before and am so sad I can’t find any other app with the same white filter/ border and the fact that I’m not able to see what exactly I’m purchasing with each “add-on” is very unfortunate..Dani19283746363627Version: 5.2

✓ One Word DISAPPOINTEDI always loved Polaroid so got suckered into another one of their “official” apps & ended up purchasing the Polaroid Prime. advertising “true Polaroid styles” & unfortunately not feeling any emotional nostalgia with any of these filters. Very basic & no Time Zero? Fail, fail, fail. I can produce a more accurate Polaroidesque in the free app Snapseed. What a shame. Please update this with improved filters that would better represent the original analog films..ROCKY14225Version: 2.90

✓ It would be betterI think that this app would be so much better if u could use the different cameras to take the pictures and it would make it so much more fun and interesting.LadykelleyVersion: 6.1

✓ Don’t botherHonestly you can only use one filter - the rest can only be used with the paid version, or “unlock with ads”. Didnt bother to explore the rest as i wasnt going to waste my time on an app that hides under the guise of a “free app” where you have to pay to use abt 99% of the features. Just say straight out charge ppl to use it, and dont con ppl into downloading an app that is very obviously not “free” if there’s barely anything that u can do without paying. You’d get more respect that way ig.Nonickname1038727282Version: 5.4.4

✓ Option to resizePurchased the app a year now and it’s great. One thing I have noticed is that I am not able to resize the pictures to fit inside the different frames. I don’t care if there will be null (black) spaces if the picture will end up smaller than the frame. I can always use stickers to cover it up. Also, you can’t rotate the picture. I have a horizontal picture trying to fit in a vertical frame. It would be better if I can rotate and resize the picture as I please. Be a bit more flexible. Thanks..Tvenduxhd dhckdbwhxmVersion: 2.90

✓ Free trial is a scamI signed up for a 3 day free trial but it automatically took a years subscription out of my account. I tried to request a refund from Apple but it automatically says I ‘don’t qualify for a refund’.Ellieg1106Version: 4.6.1

✓ Changed for the worseUse to have a bunch of free options for pictures but now it’s not that and subscription fee. Don’t recommend. Also see how every response from developer is the same, an auto response.... is that caring for the customer and their voice..Jdoe987Version: 5.0.1

✓ Can’t access galleryI can NOT get this to work! I have pictures in the gallery and I can see them in there when I click on gallery but it only shows for a second the disappears to the camera so it’s only allowing me to do pictures I take with the camera in the app and not my pictures in my phone! Very annoying! And this is after I paid for the pro! Not happy! Total waste of money.Tammy8048Version: 5.2.2

✓ Charges you!!Selected a 3 day free trial but instead it charged me the full amount straight away!!!.EGSylvesterVersion: 4.6.1

✓ Great appLove this app for all the old skool Polaroid nostalgia but without all of the bloat that comes with many similar apps. That said it’s so frustrating that you can’t make a one time payment to unlock additional (sorry, “pro”) features. This trend of mobile developers wanting ongoing payments to unlock all features is a tedious one. You’re not Adobe..DreamcasterUKVersion: 4.4

✓ Latest update is horribleI used to be able to make really cool looking ‘Polaroid’ pictures with the options available for the free users. I was able to use the classic size frame and the portrait size frame for free. The new update took away my ability to use the classic size and portrait size as a free user and the frames I am now allowed to use look horrible and like a really cheap Polaroid rip off. I’m really disappointed in this update and I’ll be deleting the app if these changes are not reversed..Lover of chipmunksVersion: 4.0

✓ The version I paid for is gone!I had been using this app, well the previous version for more than 3-4 years and it was called InstaLab. This was my go to app for Instagram. Built my whole IG around this app, now it’s changed up and to add insult to injury they’re charging $5 a month when the original app was $4.99 that I paid for and I can’t even use it. Stay far away from this app and I hope Apple removes them from the App Store. The app is now useless and I want my money back! If I could give this new version ZERO stars I gladly would do so. BRING BACK THE APP THAT I PAID FOR, IT WAS WORKING JUST FINE ACTUALLY IT WAS WORKING VERY WELL. Not this new version what a joke Figured I revisit my review and offer some suggestions to the developers. Bring back features from the original to complement the new features that everyone seem to hate. There was a great feature in the original that would let you select photos and make a Polaroid collage as of you stuck a few Polaroids on a board or wall..ThisissupermanVersion: 5.4.3

✓ Print Service Heads UpNot sure if I missed it somewhere but please note the print service ships from EUROPE! I ordered with standard shipping and my order will undoubtedly be heavily delayed getting to the US. Obviously shipping delays are out of vntg’s control but I wasn’t aware of the difficulties they’ve been having delivering prints on time until after the order was placed. Also, there were no communications on shipping until I emailed customer service directly after ~5 days of no update..Tmm1621Version: 5.4.3

✓ DownhillI have used this app since 2016, and since then the in-app purchase have become reason enough to stop using it. As a long time user, I expected to only purchase it once and receive the full experience and benefits, but over the years it has become a charged membership with tedious updates that take away things you used to have..Ty2877Version: 5.2.2

✓ LolThis new subscription era is becoming ridiculous. From one time fee to a monthly subscription . Very expensive You must be joking. Deleted straight away..Mattax232Version: 4.5.2

✓ A great app but still need some workI’ve been scouring the App Store and trying to find the most suited Polaroid-like app for my needs. I found this app and I’ve been using it a lot; it’s a great app but it requires some usability TLC at the moment. I’m going to stick with this app for a while since I like the way it produces the Polaroid-like images. C’mon give this a try!.PiOSnoyVersion: 3.20

✓ Am I missing something?So I just found this app and was trying it out. I don’t know if I’m the only one having this issue with the app but when you scroll through your camera roll it’s impossible to scroll without selecting photos, having to unselect them to try to scroll only to select more. Trying to actually scroll down takes like 5-6 tries before it actually scrolls, then you stop and have to repeat the process to get the app to work again, am I missing something? Is there a correct way to scroll that I don’t know of? Other wise app seems ok, filters seem cool..AndysrolleiVersion: 5.5.1

✓ HelpppppI wanted to get them printed and shipped to my house but after I put my information in it won’t let me continue to the payment method because it says my phone number is missing even though it’s not. It also wants an apartment number or building which I don’t have, but I just put “n/a” and it seemed to work. However no matter how many times I try to enter my phone number it won’t let me through..Gummybear4112002Version: 4.4
