Pic Stitch - Collage Editor for Negative User Reviews
✓ Pricing is ridiculousI can’t even test the app to see if it’s worth my time because everything (seemingly) is locked behind a paywall. I’m not paying that much in the hope that it works how I want. I understand you need to make money, but wow..Version: 8.2.19
✓ Not allowing me to save the final resultThe app used to be great for my fanfics. However, now it won’t let me save or upload it onto anything. I try and try, uninstall and try again but it won’t work. I checked if i have enough space on my device to see if that’s the problem but it’s not. Please fix this because no other apps are as used full as this . Thanks ..Version: 7.8
✓ DisappointingI’m giving an extra star only because for so long, this app used to be great and I loved it. Basic features were 100% free, no watermarks, minimal ads… Perfect for the average user. Virtually every feature (no exaggeration…) has some undesirable element that requires you to pay a subscription fee for it. And the ads have really become ridiculous… I get it’s a way for apps to make an income and most of the time, I don’t even think twice about them. But when I try to save an image only to be faced with an ad in another language with no option to get out of it other than to close the app completely, forcing me to abandon my collage project? Sad to say I’m uninstalling and looking elsewhere….Version: 8.2.28
✓ Newest version 8.0.2 no longer works. At allAdd for game comes up on export. Allow it to end as usual. No done button. Add stays up after done. No way to move on. If I swipe the add off screen it goes away but ‘Creating Collage’ never ends. If you then touch screen a dialog gives you option to end export. But still never ends CRITICAL BUG. Not sure how that one got past QA.Version: 8.0.2
✓ Another Greedy Bait-and-switchSubscription plans are not the future for applications. You cannot portray a photo editor as a service that could ever hope to warrant users paying indefinitely. It's just pure greed on the part of the developer. I'll pay the one time price but I refuse to pay indefinitely for a collage app. I'm so fed up with greedy developers taking premium apps and turning them into subscriptions after they make all they think they can make from we suckers who bought the app thinking we were buying a premium experience. It's a bait-and-switch and seriously unethical and immoral for a business to pull this type of sleazy & underhanded scam. You have lost any respect I had for you as a developer and business and you're now no better than any other App Store crook. Thanks for helping with the continuation of the ruination of the App Store. Also, thanks for helping with the continued withering of my faith in the prospect of believing there are still developers out there who are actually good people with a conscience..Version: 8.0.5
✓ Watermark after years of a good productThey have started adding a watermark to the output after years of being a decent free product. I’m gonna be looking for something else that isn’t a money grab subscription model.Version: 8.2.16
✓ Avoid This AppI have used this app for about two years , lately it started showing subscription pages and would not let me save anything , constant subscription adverts all the time making the app unusable, I gave in eventually and subscribed for a year as the life time cost is over £100 ☹️ , I was able to use the app a few times after that then the subscription adverts started appearing again , I pressed the restore option at the base of the screen nothing happened, I unistalled then reinstalled the app still the same subscription adverts , same routine when pressing restore, now the app is useless even though my subscription is showing as live in my apple account, absolute frustration ,avoid this app and its money grabbing developers, I would give zero stars if I could, used to be great now a waste of money and time, I am contacting Apple to chase a refund as this app is not providing the service it promises on the subscribe screen ..Version: 8.2.22
✓ File errorI just paid for the full version. Every time I try to create a layout more than 4 pictures it gives me an error message. I contacted the help desk and nothing has been fixed..Version: 8.0.2
✓ MehI first had the app when I was younger but because I was young I didn’t really use it (I’m 11 now) and then a couple of months ago I remembered about this app and downloaded it because I like editing photos and photography etc and started using it I really like the editing that u can do on the photos BUT the annoying thing is you have to pay to get over half of the layouts and u also have to pay for the border designs and stuff like that which cost £129 a year rip of I think ur better of finding another app I personally recommend photo collage maker and creator I hope this helped.Version: 8.0.6
✓ Does not work on 5sRubbish.Version: 3.9
✓ Bad updateI’ve used this app for awhile and it was great for what I was doing. All the features were cool and easy to use. The only thing is it didn’t have sticker which I didn’t love but it was fine. Then the update came and the borders pack is $8.99? I don’t see why you would want us to pay $9 for that. I know there are a lot more backgrounds and stuff but I, again, don’t see how that’s worth it when before you could have the same backgrounds by getting your own image and it was was a LOT cheaper. I loved this app and I used it almost daily for what I was doing and now that I can’t edit the borders and background without wasting $9 ruined everything..Version: 7.9.2
✓ Free Version Is Now UselessI had this app for years and loved it, but this newest update makes the free version of the app absolutely useless. Previous updates gradually reduced the functionality of the free version (such as removing layout templates, adding a watermark, etc.), but I was willing to deal with all of these until they removed the ability to save your collages at all with the free version. You can just make them, but when you click the “export” button, it just prompts you to pay $30/month for functions that used to be free. If you don’t want to pay that (as I certainly don’t), you might as well not even download the app..Version: 8.2.12
✓ Doesn’t Stitch!!!In the world of digital imaging, stitching means joining multiple photos together to form a SINGLE IMAGE - usually a panorama, or can be a smaller format. Stitching does NOT mean creating a collage! This app is called Pic Stitch and it has absolutely no stitch capabilities whatsoever - a PATHETIC WASTE OF TIME!!!.Version: 8.0.3
✓ Pic StitchYour new version is very not user friendly. I’ve always liked the app for customization and how you can alter pics the way you want it and not the filters. The customization area is difficult to find and the actual scales are not numbered as a reference (for if u want to adjust two photos the same way)..Version: 7.9.1
✓ Ads with audio?Immediately deleted..Version: 7.6
✓ Horribly LONG OBNOXIOUS adsSo here’s the thing- I was being generous with the 2 stars. That’s how annoyed I am by this app. It works fine for the little I use it. What I absolutely HATE are the 10 minute long ads for games I will NEVER buy or download. They are horrible games with the most ridiculous sounds. It’s practically impossible to get out of the ad even after setting my phone down, walking away, coming back.. and still no X to get back to my pictures. I have finally just started to screenshot and not even exporting the finished pic because I refuse to deal with the ads. Don't get me wrong- I understand it’s a free app and they need advertising. But could they not change up the ads a bit? Heck everyone else stalks us on our phones to find our interests 😂..Version: 8.2.32
✓ Bring back the old versionPlease bring back the old version, I’ve never left a review for any app but it’s needed for this. The new version of blurring and blemish does not work as good as before. The old app before all the changes you’ve made was better and worked better. Please return it to 2 or 3 updates previously. I wish I never updated. Thank you..Version: 7.9.1
✓ The ads are getting ridiculousI’ve been using this app for years. Used to be my go-to for stitching pics together. Well, at this point the app won’t let you save your photo until you have waited for a 1-2 min advertisement to play, and even after that, there IS no way to exit the ad. You HAVE to click on the ad and let your phone load the App Store before the “X” will appear so that you can exit that menu and save your photo. And at that point you’ve already wasted an additional 20 seconds searching for the little “X” that never appears unless you click on the ad. It’s extremely annoying and a great way to get rid of customers. I won’t be using this anymore. Save yourself some time and use Scrapbook instead; it’s way better with more features that are all free..Version: 8.2.10
✓ Update?I love this app, great for putting text on pictures, until today, It seems there has been an update and it has made typing the words very fiddly and hard to see. Before I could see in a box what I was writing then add font colour etc later. Now it brings up your own keyboard and it is hard if not impossible to see what you have written. There is a colour bar to change colour of font, but the slider does not change the colour. Horrible experience, please change it back as it was excellent, now it is awful and will put off people casually trying the app because it is no longer user friendly..Version: 7.9
✓ Greed…So I have been using Pic Stich since 2014, it's true that back then this app was very inexpensive, but at the time, developers needed to get into the store and compete with other apps. Granted this is one of the best apps, I am not surprised it's doing fairly well. I had bought the app with borders and frames packs back then. However being a Software developer myself, I understand that cost of living is high, software development costs are higher, but there is this thing called loyalty that unfortunately software developers on the app stores lack. I recently had to reinstall my iPad and I see that I am being asked to buy this app as a subscription model, or buy it outright for over $100. Well this is a punch in the gut, I'd understand if you were asking like $30 for old users to cover the cost or even a one time upgrade but not giving us access to what we had before (Restore doesn't work), and put in the top of that watermark and ads is really an insult. I am not going to contact you to fix this, you should have the decency to provide a better upgrade mechanism for your old time users, this is just plainly unacceptable. Unfortunately this has become the norm and Apple just lets this method fly... so what happens when I pay $100+ for a one time fee, are you going to ask $500 in 5 years and take the previous features away ? This is just morally wrong!.Version: 8.2.19
✓ ProblemsThis was a great app ! I use it all the time but now half way through editing a picture the (done) button will disappear and it only allows to edit but not place. It's repeats this Every time and to start again u have to wait 10 mins, but the problem happens again! I hope this can be fixed! And the problem with cutting Half the picture out, u should be able to choose how much of the picture you want in..Version: 3.3
✓ 3star as unsure stillFirst time trying to use this app and loving the quality...however, it doesn’t let me export at all. I’ve just got a photo on one side and a video on the other. Is it possible to export without buying..or is there an option to just save to photo album? Thank you..Version: 8.0.2
✓ ....so?So, you’ve removed blemish and not able to zoom in, no thank you, I’ll find a different app..Version: 7.9
✓ Claims it stitches, but doesn’t seem toIf this app stitches into a panorama as it claims, then it sure isn’t an easy feature to find. I’ve given up trying to find the feature or make it work..Version: 7.8
✓ GarbageThis app is complete garbage. Back in the day when iPhones were newer, there were tons of apps that were either free or a one-time cost to purchase from the app store. Most apps were high quality and did what they were designed to do. I’m not sure when it started, but now almost every app is full of ads that you cannot escape (even after watching the whole ad or clicking the “x”). A lot of these kinds of apps end up crashing frequently. A lot of them barely function unless you make in-app purchases. Sad to see the quality of apps declined and become utter trash. The same thing is happening with websites online. I hope the creators of these apps and websites don’t make any money..Version: 8.2.33
✓ Update glitchI’ve noticed after I’ve finished my collage and save it in the app , the next time I go back in the images aren’t where I left them like the old version. They’ve slid about and I have to constantly move them back. I’m constantly altering and going back so it’s very annoying the set image isn’t staying still ..Version: 8.2.8
✓ NO LONGER FREEALL EXISTING USERS - do not update this app unless you want to have a watermark after a few exports! Devs - I have been using this app for YEARS, since iOS 9 at least, and now I am no longer able to export pictures without a watermark unless I pay for it. This was NOT STIPULATED in the details of the app updates recently. Had it been, I would have stayed on the legacy app version. I understand your developers need to be paid, but since I only used the most basic feature - combining pictures without any special effects or frames - I don’t see the reason to have to pay a subscription to avoid a watermark. Thanks for reviewing my feedback..Version: 8.2.15
✓ Long time user left frustratedI have used this app for years, and even paid for the additional features (such as editing borders and removing watermarks). Now those features are gone unless I want to pay a monthly subscription or $129 one time?! Besides being ridiculously high cost, I have zero confidence that if the one time fee is paid, the features I am looking to utilize will remain available. It even says that one time payments don’t guarantee you’ll keep features in the fine print so what’s the point… As a long time supporter, this is not the way to treat your customers and fans. I will not be spending more money here so the app is now worthless to me. Such a shame because this was a great app..Version: 8.2.25
✓ It’s awesome but it crashes constantly!Argggg! Patience is required using this neat app It crashes constantly in my iPhone 7+ Then I have to redo everything again🙃.Version: 7.8
✓ BadDidn’t work right. Water marks your image. Trying layout app instead.Version: 8.0.7
✓ Cash Grab UpdateThe latest update has now made most functions as PRO at a one-off payment of $199 or an annual subscription!!! So unfortunate; was a decent app until this cash grab. Will be looking elsewhere for more economical option now. I wouldn’t mind paying some dollars but really?!!.Version: 8.0.7
✓ Not freeThis used to be a great app. I haven’t needed it in a long time. Downloaded it again recently. Saw that there were certain layouts you had to pay for. I didn’t care because I wanted to do something simple. Had to watch an ad after I made it before I could save. Annoying, but fine; developers need to make money. Once I saved, I decided I wasn’t happy with the finished product so I re-did it. Came back later to tweak it just a little more and was informed that I had reached my limit of collages without a watermark. I could pay to remove the watermark. No thanks. I’ll use another app..Version: 8.2.15
✓ $$$ for Basic Function = not actually freeApps like this should not be listed as if they’re free. Sure, you can download it for free. But you won’t be able to use it the way most people expect to use it without paying for a subscription or pricey one time fee that apparently doesn’t even cover future updates. You can make a ‘collage’ from 2 pics and save it with a watermark on it for free. Like I said— it isn’t really useable for most people without paying for it. My problem isn’t that it costs money… I’d be willing to pay $5-7 (one time, not per month) for this app if it had a history of being stable and supported. I don’t even expect tons of new content for free… I just expect that it continues to function properly over time with the features available when I purchased it. $129 is waaayyy too much money for a phone app like this. Unsure why people are willing to waste so much money… wasn’t always like this, yet it will continue to be until the spending stops..Version: 8.2.12
✓ Hate the update!I used to use this app all the time. Paid for premium features like remove border but since it’s been updated recently, not only can you not use those features anymore, now you either have to pay $40 a year or $180?.Version: 8.0.8
✓ Breaking Up With This App After OVER A DECADEI first started using PicStitch in 2013. I paid for premium access to features way back when, only to open the app today to find these features (both originally free and what I paid for) all suddenly behind a paywall that’s charging nearly what I had originally paid as a *one-time purchase* now as a *monthly fee*. You can’t even remove the borders anymore without paying, or use the oh-so-popular 9-image layout. And now there’s a watermark if you don’t pay?!? This is a despicable cash grab if I’ve ever seen one, and I will be deleting the app promptly after this review. I’m extremely disappointed in the developers for their decision to lock up everything, even after some of us gave them our money already. This app was my bread and butter for creating quick colleges both then and now, and you’ve made it virtually unusable unless we fork over our wallets. You should be ashamed..Version: 8.2.35
✓ After effects.I really don't like the new effects/filters and the small size of the pic, also it has fb problems..Version: 3.6
✓ Annoying subscription appFirst thing after installing is a very expensive subscription pop up. Useless and shame on you not mentioning this before downloading..Version: 8.2.25
✓ Better options.Wildly, you have to watch ads before you can save your pictures! Most of the usual features are behind a paywall and it is NOT worth paying a yearly fee so you can change the thickness of your frames when other apps do it for free. Shame..Version: 8.0.2
✓ HORRIBLEPicstitch used to work well, now its just bugged out, cant even view 20photos into my phones photo album before the screen goes black and cant retrieve any photos, developers are hopeless tools and picstitch is slowly getting worse each update,.Version: 5.7
✓ Suddenly Ridiculously ChargingI've used this app for YEARS!! I once paid for the border add on and then it stopped working and expected me to pay again. Now, it's suddenly watermarked and expecting me to pay over £100 to use it ... even though it's already ripped me off on the border pack. It's such a shame as it used to be a decent app and I'd recommended it to many ppl. Foul play pic stitch! Uninstalling..Version: 8.2.26
✓ Picstich for everyday useFeatures are good but definitely not excellent . — layouts aren’t very interesting — Crashes frequently. —Can’t hear the sound on videos during editing. —The advertising is to a level of impeding efficient use of the application..Version: 8.0.2
✓ No goodYou hit the paywall at end end of your project. So shady..Version: 8.2.3
✓ Sooooooo dum😡I don't like it😷.Version: 2.6
✓ Can’t recommend this app anymoreRecently the ads have made the app impossible to use. I’ll finish up putting two pictures onto one screen and once the ad pops up you can’t exit out. Eventually I just force quit as I can’t move forward which causes the need to restart the project. App has become unusable unless you pay for their subscription to remove the ads. Apple is also being notified of this functionality of app to adjust how it is marketed on their App Store. I fully support watching and interacting with the ads, but to not allow the user to go beyond after viewing them is unacceptable..Version: 8.2.12
✓ DysfunctionalCannot stitch together screenshots if they’re of different sizes. First thing I try to do after installing the app, and it fails at the task miserably..Version: 8.0.3
✓ No loyalty to long-time usersI’ve used this app exclusively for collage/stitching purposes for years — at least 4 years. I was a free-to-play user but I spent months of watching long advertisements every single day to slowly unlock all of the frame layouts, one by one. I recommended this app to tons of friends over the years. Now all of a sudden, all of the basic features are behind a paywall. Can’t adjust borders, border colors, etc. The app is now functionally useless. You already got the ad revenue off me watching all those generic video game ads every day to unlock the frame layouts and now you want me to pay $30 to use features I’ve been using for nearly half a decade? Not a chance. App deleted. Here’s your 1 star review too..Version: 8.1.0
✓ Good App but changes not goodI have used this app for years and got loads of my friends using it too. Very happy with it previously. However, I have always been able to change the thickness of the borders without paying £8.99 for a ‘borders pack’. So features that were previously free have now been removed and you must now pay for this instead. It’s a shame this wasn’t offered for free to those who have made this app popular instead of removing things and effectively forcing us to pay. Will now search for a different app that doesn’t ask for so much money)..Version: 8.0.1
✓ ÉcritureIl m’est impossible d’écrire du texte, tout bloque, je dois éteindre mon IPad..Version: 7.9.1
✓ UnhappyI have used this app for a long time but for some reason it has changed recently and it’s rubbish. Trying to edit photos using their standard features like blemish or whiten are almost impossible to get a good result now..Version: 8.0
✓ Most recent update is awfulI used this app frequently for a number of years and have purchased in app upgrades. The most recent upgrade has changed the filters and reduced the amount of tools available so it’s no longer an editing app. The blur or whitening features no longer allow zoom to work on one specific area which makes them useless, and there is no longer vignette, contrast, saturation etc. I wouldn’t recommend this app in current format. It’s now very basic app offering only a few filters, captioning and borders. I hope they revert to the original version. I would not recommend downloading this version..Version: 7.9
✓ Nothing is free anymoreThis app is NO LONGER FREE... I even watched a ridiculous amount of ads over 4 years to get new layouts, many of which I never used. I have been using this app since 2016. I don’t use the app too often but today for the first time in many months I came back to use it, and to my dismay they are charging money. Not even a one time purchase, a subscription.. So now they are asking for $24 a month or $129 a year for an app that doesn’t even show the entire photo edges. I would have to prepare my photos by shrinking them down struggling to give them some type of edging, before I even brought them in the app. I think this app is a bit out of it’s league, and should be showing more appreciation for the users who keep them alive..Version: 8.0.4
✓ The Most Recent Update SucksThis was one of my favorite photo editing apps. The most recent update causes pictures to be blurry, and the editing tools are not accurate. Switch back please!.Version: 8.0.2
✓ So disappointedI used to love this app and would use it regularly to make collages of photos for loved ones birthday and cards etc…recently updated the app as it requested it and now I can’t save any of my collages unless I pay a yearly or one off payment. I’m so angry about this! Why have an app that was free for years and years and photos were able to be saved, now suddenly you can’t do anything unless you pay. Very disappointing!.Version: 8.2.12
✓ Stealing from customersNever take away features from customers who paid you already. If you want to create a subscription tier, or a new subscription app, that’s fine. I have lost access to features that I paid for, simply because the updates made them subscription only. I have lost all trust to give this developer more of my money. I will find an alternative without such unethical practices..Version: 8.2.26
✓ Useless unless you payThis seems like a good app, but it’s impossible to know because the free version is useless, never mind that every tap brings up a nag screen asking for money. Launch app, choose layout (nag screen), select photos, insert first photo (nag screen), insert second photo, save (nag screen that won’t let you save), save (same nag screen), delete app. I’m a computer engineer so I’m happy to pay for good software, but I need to know it’s good first. A free download should be able to do at least the bare basics, like save a simple image. Better: give a reasonable free trial period with all features unlocked so that users can see how good your app is and what it’s really worth. If you’d done that I would probably have spent several hours playing with this during the trial before gladly buying a subscription. Instead, I used it for 10 minutes then deleted it. Trust me on the free trial thing. (AKA: the Endowment effect.).Version: 8.2.16
✓ New version is so disappointingThis app is now ruined. Why couldn’t the old filters still be accessible? And there’s no more blemish feature? I’ll be moving to a new photo app..Version: 7.9
✓ Frequent need for delete then reloadStarting to get annoying because when I try to export it locks me into a gaming app which I can’t get rid of then crashes. Then I need to delete the app then reload. One more time and I’m done with it..Version: 8.0.2
✓ Not a stitcherDoes not stitch pictures so poorly named. Just a standard collage maker..Version: 7.8
✓ HorribleIf you can make this app work 10% of the time congratulations!! I have the full paid version and it's torturous to use!! Freezes pics bounce around on there own , collages get deleted, dont save, pics won't stay centred. Really painful to use!!!.Version: 7.3
✓ ScamThis app has been around for a long time, and if you’ve been using it the whole time you may remember, they’ve gone through this cycle of making you pay for basic features and removing the water mark, leaving it alone for a few years, changing the payment mode, charging you again, and repeating. The app does essentially the same thing without any major ui improvements in years, and now once again they’re trying to charge you to remove the water mark even if you paid for the app multiple times in the past. Find something third party to do the saw thing, don’t support these bottom feeders anymore..Version: 8.2.3
✓ Just so boringWhen I first went on this game I though I would be able to do the things I needed to on it but I tried using all the tools but it says you have to pay and I am very confused there should be instructions included into it.Version: 7.9
✓ Used to be a favouriteThe recent updates have made unnecessary changes to what was an excellent app. I know they’ve tried to fix it by putting some features back but the UI isn’t as user friendly as before and random bugs have appeared, such as the frame I’ve selected reverting to plain white whenever I try to save the collage to my photo roll. A shame, this was my go-to app for quick and effective editing/framing..Version: 7.9.1
✓ Can not open appCan’t open the app any more for some reason. Had it a long time and got all the regular collage frames for free so if I uninstall and reinstall then I will then lose them all and only just finished getting them. Very convenient. 🧐.Version: 8.2.10
✓ Greed is going to run these apps into the groundI have used this app for probably close to, if not over, 10 years. I once paid for this app’s features and loved to use it whenever I needed to make a quick collage. Today, to my surprise, I opened the app to make another quick collage and discovered that every single feature I once had access to is now locked with a little orange crown, telling me I have to subscribe to the app if I want to use everything I used to use. I can’t even use/edit collages I made several months ago because those are ALSO locked and only show a preview. This is greed at its finest. Every single developer that thinks they’ll make more money by ripping features away from decades long users just to force them to subscribe is sorely mistaken. I will sooner delete the app than pay weekly, monthly, annually, or $129 to use it for life. $5-$10 for lifetime use? Sure. But you’re out of your mind if you think anyone with half a brain is paying $129 for a simple collage app. This is essentially legalized robbery. Incredibly disappointed in y’all..Version: 8.2.35
✓ Great when it works, but unfortunately that isn’t oftenHate writing bad reviews for FREE apps, but... Its great when it works, but doesn’t work most of the time. Always hangs up at same point, right at the end when you are creating collage. You can pick your template, pick your photos, manipulate them all good, and it will certainly show you the advertisement when you finish! But then most of the time will get hung up indefinitely and not finish the collage..Version: 8.0.2
✓ Photo app not entire operating system$200 for an app? I remember when apps were $2 They don’t even let you see if it works properly. Greedy..Version: 8.2.22
✓ UselessCrap app, not easy to use.Version: 8.0.5
✓ Newer versions have ruined this appI completely get the ads, and I understand why they’re needed, but 1: they’re deeply obnoxious 2: there’s no option to buy an ad-free version without going premium which is diabolically overpriced at £25pm or £130 lifetime. I’d happily pay a fair amount for ad-free but the offered price is a rip off. App is excellent otherwise but the recent versions have wrecked it..Version: 8.2.17
✓ New watermark is obnoxiousHadn’t used this app in a bit and was really disappointed that it has applies a gross watermark to all photos edited in the app. I’ll find something better..Version: 8.2.15
✓ Nothing but problemsThis was a good free app until they updated it. Now there is nothing but problems trying to use it and freezes my whole phone up. Good work!.Version: 8.2.16
✓ Used to be free and awesome.This app used to be free and awesome. It was my favorite collage maker. I loved all the options and even that you could create your own custom design. I haven’t used it in a while, so to my horror and shock I opened it today to find out that now most of the options are locked. And so is the the custom layout feature. So it is not free anymore. I would have considered paying for it... till I saw the price. $29 per year, or $129 to not keep paying monthly. What??? This is just a collage making app. It not like you are getting a full fledged photo editing software. You are just putting pictures into little squares. It’s obnoxious how all developers now are trying to squeeze every penny out of consumers. I guarantee that few people will pay $129. Some might, probably by accident thinking that the $2.50 is a one time payment, not recurring monthly... but I guarantee that they would make more money and have more happy customers if they charged $2-$5. Sorry, but I feel extremely cheated now and will not even use the free options. This app is getting deleted!! You have lost me and all my friends as customers..Version: 8.0.3
✓ Unnecessary PaymentI used to use this app a lot but now that you have to pay like nine pounds just to change the thickness of a border, i will be looking for a different app. Thank you for your services in the past :).Version: 8.0.3
✓ App freezes every time I open itThis app used to be great. Now it freezes every time I open it. I have to restart it 3 or 4 times, sometimes more, before it will actually work. Very disappointed..Version: 8.2.6
✓ HmmThe app has gotten kind of confusing as of late... I’ve always updated but it’s only recently changed the UI for me. With this change, I don’t know how to stitch pictures together anymore? You know... before you could put multiple pictures together horizontally or vertically without having to put them in one of the default frames. I’m not sure if you can do it anymore. If you can, please make it easier to find..Version: 7.3
✓ BrokenCrashes when it tries to export, and displays ads in a format that you cannot see the entire ad, or the close button. What a terrible app for a simple task....Version: 8.0.2
✓ FrozenLove the app but as of today it freezes every time I open it. Tried the usual things but it’s just stuck on the main template page. Hope you guys can fix it soon!.Version: 8.2.3
✓ TerribleWhy can’t we add music to photos anymore?.Version: 8.2.26
✓ One of the worst photo edit apps out thereDON’T USE THIS APP!! This app is by far THE most annoying, frustrating, and useless app I have ever used. I have never written an app store review in my life, but I am so angry about this app that I made an exception to warn everyone else. I wanted to join 4 simple pictures together and this app has made me want to pull my hair out. You have to pay for 80% of the features. I don’t mind in-app purchases but if you don’t pay, your photo collage is guaranteed to come out looking basic and chunky. Beyond that, the app is glitchy and hard to use, and you are inundated with ads and watermarks. The pre-made layouts do not work well and you can’t easily align your photos within them. If you want to make any adjustments, it knocks everything out of place. Photo collages are a SIMPLE THING TO DO RIGHT and picstitch seems to do it very wrong, every step of the way..Version: 8.2.24
✓ Paid for it several years agoI bought this app several years ago to get extra features. Now I have to pay to get watermarks removed. No thanks..Version: 8.2.3
✓ Got greedy?I’ve been using this for years - with the ads, which was okay - but now it’s become basically useless, as can’t save the collages. Delete..Version: 8.2.8
✓ Free features are 99% gone. Another money-grub. Don’t waste your time.I’ve used this app on and off for years. Do yourself a favor; don’t even bother downloading this it. It used to be great, and now 99% of it is pay to use. In the last six to nine months, the free features have started going away… first the amount of frames… now you can only have one color (white) and it comes with a giant border that cannot be edited. Two more free features gone. You can no longer edit corners, shadows, or backgrounds. There is now a giant “pic stitch” button on every single photo as well. In addition to this, the frames are not correct sizing for apps like Facebook. The “FB Cover” option is not even close to the correct size. This is 100% a greedy clickbait. I can see a one time purchase of something like $5-$20- but they want you to pay $30 a YEAR EVERY YEAR. Ya’ll are insane. There is nothing warranting that cost on this app. There are plenty of other competitors who have the same if not better features for a fraction of that price or free. I agree with other reviewers - try Canva or another app. This one has fallen so far it’s not even worth your time..Version: 8.2.24
✓ Annoying to the n-th degree1. The iPad version of the app is positively unable to retrieve the photo library; one can wait 10 or 15 minutes and… nothing happens. The iPhone version is somewhat better. 2. The ads which pop up between creating a photo composition and getting the rendered product are beyond annoying and some of them are simply impossible to dismiss. I have had to force-quit the app and restart from scratch, hoping I’d get an ad with that elusive, magical X in the corner, allowing me to get rid of it once it had completed its little song and dance. While I realize that app developers have to make money, forcing users to play avoid-the-ads lottery while attempting to use your app is counter-productive..Version: 8.2.3
✓ Still no user-defined default frame• Inconvenient that every time you switch to a new frame design the app reverts your draft collage to thick white lines, regardless of what you were working with. Please allows users to have a default profile of how frame designs should appear on opening (thin black etc). Or at the very least, once we select thickness, colour etc, stop resetting it if we decide to change collage layout and we specify when the app asks us that we do not wish to start a new collage. Obviously we want to continue with the same design profile! • Also, please add the option to choose the specific image output size (pixels x pixels, locked to ratio).Version: 8.1.1
✓ What is happeningI was really excited to use this app but I couldn’t access photos?? Anyone know how to fix this!?.Version: 7.8
✓ No stitch in pic stitchThe app itself seems fairly routine. It works, it does collages and other such pic stuff. But it doesn’t stitch. Or if it does - there’s some magical way to find it and since I’m not magical... *shrug* If it’s called “pic stitch” it would be nice that it stitched pics. Just sayin..Version: 7.8
✓ Major disappointmentI run a Lost & Found pet site. I lost ability to crop pics today. So I updated & same problem. My members, many of whom have broken hearts, look forward to seeing their pets on cover photo every night. Imagine my shock that I made a few pics @ 5 p.m. & could crop, @ 9 pm I find out a dog I was going to post was found so I tried to make a different photo & couldn’t crop. So everyone is going to be upset with Pic Stitch. You could have given some warning. I just want to make simple pics, nothing fancy so I don’t want to pay a bunch of money to do volunteer work. Cheesy of you though not to state we’d loose to the crop feature. Guess I’ll have to close the Lost & Found Dog & Cat Site. All I want to do is put 2 photos in 16x9 divided in 2 areas but can’t any more. Can’t crop. Why do you have to make it more complicated? Why don’t you leave it as it was for ppl who want a simple way to make pics? And charge the ppl who want high tech stuff like filters, etc? This 💩now..Version: 8.0.2
✓ Doesn’t workIn an attempt to do a photo split the app crashed on me multiple times when loading the second image until I finally gave up completely. Looks good if it worked but completely unusable.Version: 7.6
✓ Forced to updateUgh, I’ve been avoiding updating this app for over a year because I didn’t want to lose my favorite features, blur, blemish and focus, but with the new IOS update I was unable to use the app anymore without updating it. I was forced to update. Now the worst has happened, as expected, and now this app is utterly useless to me. The blur and blemish features are complete trash and do not work the way they did before and I can’t even turn the angle of the focus feature sideways as I am used to doing. I would actually be willing to pay for this app if only I could keep the features the way they were. So depressing because I’ve been using this app for YEARS, many many years, and now I can’t use it at all..Version: 8.2.2
✓ Sneaky Cash GrabStupidly downloaded the latest update which is demanding $199 for things I already paid to remove like the watermark. Super unhappy that paid features have been removed and more money is being demanded..Version: 8.2.3
✓ Don’t botherThis app is terrible; crashes repeatedly..Version: 8.2.17
✓ It was a five star appThe ability to edit small details was great because you could zoom in while editing. It was my go to app for small details. I don’t know what you guys were thinking, removing that feature. I assume it was a mistake and I hope it is corrected quickly. How can you touch up a blemish or whiten someone’s teeth when you can’t zoom in to the specific area you are trying to adjust? The features that made this app great have been ruined. It’s practically worthless unless this issue is corrected. I hope the developers read these reviews. It was a five star app until the ability to be precise was completely eliminated..Version: 7.9
✓ 5 Star CreditI will credit the 5 stars, because the app is pretty good in its category, but this latest update sneaked in some adds to the bottom left corner. I hope that you’ll take that down pretty soon, as I paid for all in app purchases that were available. I expect it to be add free now - unless you want me to pay for the removal of them too?.Version: 8.0
✓ I give upI have tried and tried over the years to download this app. Lots of people I know love it but for whatever reason I can never get it to work. I just tried again to no avail (and that was after the update to fix the bugs) I have an Apple 11 Max Pro and the pictures stall when trying to download them and it freezes up my phone to where I have to reboot and delete the app. It must be user error since I seem to be the only one that has this problem. I wish I knew what it was. I thought about paying for the Pro version bit until I can fix the free version I’m not going to spend the money for something I can’t seem to get to work..Version: 8.1.1
✓ So disappointed 😔I’ve used the Pic Stitch app for 5 years prior to it now being a paid subscription. It’s been my favorite App. I’ve created numerous amazing collages that have been admired by many. I’m so very disappointed that you’re asking me to pay a subscription fee again when in all actually I paid for the App in 2017. I wish you would exempt prior paid users (I have my receipt), like myself, from having to pay a yearly subscription fee. You had a superb rating however with the paid subscription fee, not so much now. FYI this has been the first time I’ve ever given a negative rating on an App or reached out to the developers. I hope you do the right thing & exempt me from ever having to pay a yearly subscription for the full features I paid for originally. So disappointed 😔.Version: 8.2.16
✓ Subscription it recognizedI paid for a subscription and now it’s not recognized.Version: 8.2.3
✓ Dishonest and anti consumerI purchased the full version of this app years and years ago. That gave me no ads, and access to the additional border options, among others. What a surprise it is for me to open the app and find out it’s now a subscription service just like everything else these days, and I’ve lost access to the paid version I paid for all those years ago and can no longer use them. “Restore purchase” doesn’t actually do anything and you’re stuck having to choose which awful subscription plan you want in order to do almost anything in the app. Awful and stupid practice. This didn’t need to be a subscription service and shame on you for choosing ti screw over long time users. Instantly deleted and will not be using it again..Version: 8.2.30
✓ Don’t botherCan only do one free (think per day) and then you have to pay..Version: 8.2.2
✓ Dumpster FireHow can an app get worse with all of the updates to “improve performance” over the years? Look no further folks, your answer is picstitch. What used to be one of, if not THE, best photo editing/collage apps on the market apparently is all about setting itself up for failure. Not only do the tools not function as well as they did previously (with some not even performing the same action i.e. Blemish/Blur are essentially the same except one you tap to use vs drag), the stickers have disappeared; the filter options (effects packs), frames, and borders available to use were removed, locked, and now have to be purchased. Now a subscription is required to use the options that were free for years. Once again GREED kills an app and alienates its customers..Version: 8.2.33
✓ Unethical TeamAfter using this app for years i am so upset that the designers have decommissioned the many templates i earned (watching advertisements). Yes, I've brought this to their attention but after several months of waiting and several software releases, there's no change in the app's performance. The designers are apparently content with changing the terms of use with no compensatory offering or apology..Version: 8.2.25
✓ Switched to a MUCH better free competitorI used this app for over 6 years. For me, it filled in a small gap that I should really be able to do natively on my phone by now. I opened it up yesterday to use it like normal and was surprised to see the update paywalling me out of basic features. Now, notion that someone should pay more than $5 TOTAL for the simple functions this product offers in a pretty unattractive package is absurd. But to go as high as a TRIPLE digit price tag makes me not only committed to never using this app again, but also convincing others to jump ship as well. In just a few minutes after uninstalling, I’d done a little research on alternatives and am very happy with the replacement I chose, Canva. I don’t care if you also choose that. I’m just throwing what worked for me out there. To me, the most important thing is everyone getting rid of this garbage app, Picstitch..Version: 8.2.12
✓ Coincidence ?Interestingly. Right after opening Pic Stitch for the first time in ages I received an email from “Apple” claiming that someone had made a purchase of this app to which it gave me the option to log in and cancel the payment. Which is a TOTAL scam hoping people log in with their real details giving them directly to the scammers. It’s interesting that wherever the scam email came from knew that I had that app installed on my phone which leads me to believe this app was responsible for either the scam itself of selling my information to scammers for this very reason. Be cautious..Version: 7.8
✓ Horrible After the UpdatePicstitch has been my go-to photo collage maker for literally years and I probably use it at least once a week. Imagine my surprise when I clicked into it this week to discover it’s no longer free and now to do even the most basic of things- such as change the width of your border- you have to have the pro version! At first I figured, whatever I would just buy it since I use the program so much but then discovered it’s $29 a year or $129 lifetime! Seriously, who in their right mind would possibly pay that?! I would maaaybe consider a one-time purchase of $29, but every year? Many other free apps out there and I guess I’ll be moving on to one of those..Version: 8.2.12
✓ Not so good on new IPad Pro 10.5Waited a few days on writing this review to give Pic Stitch time to respond to my emails with details and pictures of the issues, but no response! Very difficult to select a picture when the menu option does not work, or, when it does shows the same picture in every selection box. Tried deleting and reinstall, tried hard reset - no joy!.Version: 7.3
✓ Adds cover content and cannot exitThe new ads cover the whole content. No options to quit or exit the add. Even clicking on the add link multiple times doesn’t make it go away and then your work on the app is lost. We understand you need to earn money from adds, but not at the expense of users not being able to use the app. In the past the ads always had a option to be quit. Now it doesn’t allow me to quit the add. This needs to be looked at..Version: 8.2.3
✓ I used to really like this appUpdated my review to remove the last possible star, as it has become totally unusable even if you are willing to navigate around the ads. All it does now is try to sell a subscription and show adds. Those sit on top of the interfaces for selecting size and ratio, blocking access to the rest of the app, most importantly, it no longer connects to my photo collection so I can't drag images into the various boxes. Older review But now it's functionality is impaired by ads that get in the way of layouts and being forced to watch an ad in order to save the file, only to have the ad freeze, offer no route back to the app, so I have to close and the whole effort is lost. Another good app ruined by monetization frenzy. And why are we now seeing links in Russian?.Version: 8.2.35
✓ Missing toolWhere is the blemish tool? It’s no longer on the app.Version: 7.9
✓ No longer usableI’ve use this for years on my iPhone to turn screenshots into collages which I easily exported to my E store sites. Noticed the app was no longer on my iPhone without any idea of why. Went to App Store and found it, with the cloud and arrow symbol which told me that yes it was something previously opened. So downloaded again and it just wouldn’t download to my iPhone. Realized that it must no longer be a pic stitch for iPhone available app. Clicked on reviews and selected most recent and at least the top 10 are all highly negative for the change to the app, especially it now being virtually for pay with little or no use that’s free. In every review the admin requests the OP send them an email. I’m not gonna send an email because Lord knows whether or not that will get me hacked. Developer should just start working on clarifying just what you are getting if you download this app. If it’s virtually unusable without a charge state that in the description.Version: 8.2.3
✓ Don’t botherEndless ads pushing the very expensive premium service and you can’t save your collages in free mode - and nor does it appear to stitch photos together. Waste of everyone’s time. Zero stars..Version: 8.2.3
✓ BAIT & SWITCH = Restore my purchaseI sent an email a month ago. Explaining, I paid for the app a year ago before the subscription model. I’ve been trying to restore my purchase for a while now and I’ve still not gotten any support. This used to be my go-to app for my business graphics. Now, I use a different one because support for this app is nonexistent. Restore my purchase and I’ll adjust my rating. I have TWO iPhones on the same iCloud account. So make sure you set it up so that I either get two restore links, or make it so my iCloud account will accommodate both phones when restore purchase is clicked. I already paid for this app BEFORE the subscription model. Stop with the bait and switching with your apps. If it’s a one time purchase. Leave it that way. Restore my purchase please and I’ll promptly update this review..Version: 8.2.30
✓ 👎🏽Watermark is no longer transparent 😑👎🏽.Version: 7.9.2
✓ Horrible.The ads are so annoying. Build quality of the app is extremely poor..Version: 2.4
✓ Removed featureA recent update has removed the ‘blemish’ feature. I relied heavily on this for my acne so that I’m able to look back at my photos without focusing on how bad my skin is. Extremely disappointing as it’s otherwise a great app but I can’t see myself using it in future without this.Version: 7.9.1
✓ Intrusive watermark...seriously?Re issues with latest update... I’ve sorted the issue with being unable to create anything new on my iPad Pro. I have to set photo permissions to “Selected Photos” and only choose one at a time. Then drag and drop. I’ve had Pic Stitch since it was the free app of the day. It was brill. But now there’s a forced watermark. With all due respect, I credit your app each time I use anything I’ve created with Pic Stitch. But my medical expenses are just too high for anything but medical expenses, thanks to my genetic jackpot of rare and disabling degenerative diseases. Pic Stitch was a wonderful way of dealing with Ehlers Danlos disease and the multiple comorbidities, and I discovered that my art and pieces I create help educate people as well. Putting a forced watermark, at least the version of watermark as it is...really uncool. It will just make me stop using what was a really great app. And that is unfortunate. One cannot even change the appearance and size of the watermark and adjust transparency, so it’s there but doesn’t distract from/clash with an artist’s work. So please give us back the former free version. I contacted the devs but received no response. Thank you. Respectfully....Version: 8.2.3
✓ BrokenCrashes when I try to export.Version: 8.0.2
✓ Clunky interface and obnoxious adsThe image drag & drop is very unreliable and the save button is behind twenty seconds of unskippable ads where the ‘x’ button opens up the App Store. If you want to convert non-paying users into paying users, instead of making the ads more annoying, try focussing on making the user experience smoother..Version: 8.2.15
✓ MONEY STOLEN!I purchased and used the app for 9 months of my 12 month subscription and was asked to purchase in the app stating my subscription had ended. I still had 3 months left. I tried to restore the app many times, took it off my phone and put it back on. It refused to restore my purchase. So, because I use it for work I decided to just go ahead and get another yearly subscription tho I still had 3 months left. The paid for a second subscription. My Apple ID now shows 2 CURRENT subscriptions, on the same phone! Both yearly subscriptions active! AND YET I STILL DO NO HAVE PREMIUM FEATURES. IT STILL TELLS ME TO UPGRADE. THE APP WILL NOT RESTORE THE PURCHASES!!! I have contacted the company. They fixed it for me and their fix lasted ONE DAY!!! I am contacting Apple to get my money back!!! Over $40+ gone for an app that won’t even remove its logo and give me the premium service I’ve paid for now, TWICE!.Version: 8.2.22
✓ UnusableThe app is unusable aggressive with the ads and crippled features. No way to know if it’s worth buying with such a user hostile version. No thank you..Version: 8.2.22
✓ Crashes over and overI first downloaded this app in 2015 it was amazing, I had all of the templates but then all of a sudden this year it would crash when you try to open it. I reached out and was told to uninstall/reinstall. Fine. Did that and started from scratch but this time with the watermark on it. That’s fine, started the daily free templates again and was maybe 25 away from having them all again and it’s crashing again. It feels like they want you to buy it and not really have the free and that fine but put that out there for everyone to know. It’s a great app when it works but having done this 2 times and it’s crashing again is making it where I no longer want it. I had to find another. It’s not an app that I use much so paying for a subscription is not worth it for me..Version: 8.2.22
✓ Used to be goodThis was for many years a great app. However as always with these apps the owners became greedy and now you can’t use it at all without parting with cash. There was always a limited version free version and an option to pay for extra features. Now the app tries to force me to pay and won’t let me do anything, very disappointing. Oh well, plenty of other apps to use. This one gets removed from my phone..Version: 8.2.22
