Handy Photo for Negative User Reviews
✓ Keeps crashing!Can't tell you if it's any good the first time I'm using it it and its shot down on me 5 times during one edit job!.Version: 2.4.1
✓ DisappointingI’m so disappointed that this app removes the Exif! WHY??????.Version: 2.4.1
✓ Hasn’t been updated to fix various issues.Firstly, I’ve really enjoyed using this app to make quick corrections or take some creative liberties with the built in filters - it’s a great app to have in your IOS toolkit. The problem now for the last year or so is that absolutely none of the textures work anymore. I sent ADVA a help request in February of this year and was told that they were working on it - sadly it is now almost August and nothing has been done. I hope I can revisit this review and give it the 5 stars it deserves, but as of right now I unfortunately cannot..Version: 2.4.1
✓ Amazing app but...This app was simply incredible, but is very slow and unstable on iOS 11.2. Desperate need of updating. Really hoping an update or new version come out because it was unmatched in functionality and user interface..Version: 2.4.1
✓ Unable to updateUnable to update to iPad 4th gen.Version: 2.3.3
✓ CrashyI use it to move images to images with the move me tool. When it works it does so well. It crashes a lot. When it gets this way no amount of re editor will allow you to copy it to move it..Version: 2.4.1
✓ I really want to love thisI think this has all the makings of a brilliant app. However, if I add more than one effect on my ipad 3, it crashes. Really frustrating!.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Stopped working for ipadOut of nowhere! this app is now "no longer compatible" with ipad or "my device" as it states. Why does this happen with some apps?.Version: 2.4.1
✓ Used to be my favourite editor...This used to be my favourite quick editor, before I got my iPhone 6+. Was a brilliant app worthy of distinction, and one I recommended everywhere. Now, I experience Constant freezes, almost impossible to complete an image project. Also some of the features inside the app fail to load. Overall has become a huge disappointment. Not sure why the company is not addressing the issues; at the very least remove from the App Store..Version: 2.4.1
✓ Didn’t read the reviewsIf I did, I might not have bought and download this app (although I like and use the developers other apps). This latest version is buggy and freezes. Hope they can fix these problems.🙏 If they do, I will change my review..Version: 2.4.1
✓ Can't saveSince the last upgrade I can not save the photo to the library .. it just hang! Tried re-install more than 4 times but the problem is still the same. Please do something since it was a brilliant application..Version: 2.0.1
✓ 👎😢😢😰😩Totally disappointing it's very confusing.Version: 1.0
✓ Can't load imported photosI so wanted to like this app. The controls and interface is nice. However, I dumped some photos from my Dslr and I was unable to load those photos into the app..Version: 1.0
✓ Hard to usePretty powerful but painful to use. No thought to usability so even simple things like trying to open a picture from your iPad turn into a frustrating nightmare.Version: 2.4.1
✓ DisappointedAs apps go this is a low bog standard, other apps out there that are far easier to use and are free. This app also crashes too much for my liking. Keep your money and move on 🤨👎👎.Version: 2.4.1
✓ CrashEvery time I edit a picture I cannot save it as the app crashes!!! Very frustrating btw! You get the extra stars once this is fixed! Finger oot!.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Dropped support for iPad miniWhile the app description states it works on all iPads, the latest version will no longer update as it is "not compatible with this iPad". iPad Mini seems to run all the other image apps just fine..Version: 2.4
✓ Don't botherWanted this for cloning objects. What a joke? You have to draw around the object and the draw a filled in circle again where you want it cloned. Very user unfriendly..Version: 2.4.1
✓ IPhone XWhen you will the app for iPhone X.Version: 2.4.1
✓ CRASHESThe App crashes all the time, for any stupid reason... this needs to be fixed !!!.Version: 2.4.1
✓ Ehhh 👌I agree with most if the bad reviews. Not user friendly and long loading times. It's ok, it lacks smooth compatibility with camera role photos and saving. It takes a long time to load between every button you press. Does not work smooth with iPhone 5. For sure not worth the $2. I would have paid $1 but this app is not stellar or original at all. I am using another app that I paid one dollar for that does pretty much the same thing. I suggest that you get another app and suggest that the developers make improvements. Have had for two weeks and not one update yet... 👎👎👎👎 boo this app has a long ways to go. ⭐Bad development, good idea....Version: 1.0
✓ Developer abandoned appOnce upon a time this was the 'go to' app, but evidently the developers decided to focus on making another app similar to this one... perhaps to charge customers again? No thanks..Version: 2.4.1
✓ Needs higher res exportsListen I love this app for photo editing more than Lightroom and most well established photo editing programs. But you guys need to adapt and upgrade, I need to be able to export any photo I edit at the same resolution I imported it at. It's that simple. I can't use the app if I have an intricate wide shot within which I need to keep detail. I start out with a good photo and export it to find I can't make out the faces of anyone. That, and make a version of this app for the Mac. I would use it over Lightroom in a second and I'd pay top dollar for it..Version: 2.3
✓ Used to love this app - now it freezesI’ve had this app for years. Now it’s virtually unusable because it freezes constantly. Please fix it. Thanks.Version: 2.4.1
✓ Frozen under new iOSUsed to love it, now it's a brick..Version: 2.3.3
✓ MUST OWN if interface got updatedNeeds brush tool to draw over a mask or an area love the magnifier interface needs labels so we Know what they do instead of trial and error ..... forgetting and trial and error. which brings me to the main point "interface needs an update" labels will help. NOT TINY FONTS EITHER The main options have clear labels on what your selecting to do BUT the sub level options are icons only. given that your going to need to trial and error over and over. it's a amazing editing app thus one of the few which has a permanent placing on my iPhone but if you don't own this yet it's a must it's anti crop is cool (dependant on what your cropping) healing tool or also known as remove an item is brilliant there's depth if you want it..Version: 2.3.2
✓ Textures don't loadGreat app but last few releases messed up the texture loading on the iPhone and the very latest release broke the textures loading on the iPad as well. Too bad, this app used to be my favourite..Version: 2.1.0
✓ Has potential, but confusing to use..I'm a long time user of Retouch, so expected more from this. My main problem is the Clone brush, I have never yet managed to alter the brush or the hardness sizes. Swiping time and time again, on the control that is supposed to alter size, does absolutely nothing, nor does altering the brush strength / opacity. It's not just user friendly. I'm using a 2nd gen iPad pro, running the latest OS... Dissapointing to say the least..Version: 2.4.1
✓ CrashingThis app crashes constantly. I’ll be in the process of editing a photo for a while and then BOOM…. It crashes. I’ll start again and when trying to save, BOOM, it crashes. I’ve restarted my phone etc and the problem isn’t with my phone… I’m reconsidering, bcse I’m tired of putting all this work into editing and the app keeps crashing..Version: 2.4.1
✓ Update, please!It's time to update so devices can use the app…like those at 10.3.3 and some lower, but it's limited with the devices it supports. Thanks!.Version: 2.4.1
✓ Crashes When Moving Or Copying ObjectI wish i read the top review before purchasing this App. Would have been absolutely great App with all of its supposed features but it crashes failed to execute most functions!.Version: 2.4.1
✓ Superb!This is near perfect for my needs. I sell Porsches and photograph the cars in an industrial unit. I have to retouch each shot to remove background clutter and reflections, plus tweak the colour balance. I have tried Aperture, iPhoto and Photoshop on my Mac but this app is so much better and easier to use. The retouching is magical! UPDATE: App has not been updated for a year and won’t work at all on my iPhone X.Version: 2.4.1
✓ Update rubbishI've just tried to update this and it says it's not compatible with my iPad and it is .....so stuck now it won't work and it won't update....not cheap at £2.29 .....contacted them and my emails come back.....so don't bother .....Version: 2.4
✓ Used to use it all the timeNow only 10 of my 3000+ photos in the All Photos folder are available to me. Fix it..Version: 2.3
✓ Crashing after ios9updateCrashing on saving items....emailed Support twice ...no response at all from them. Was my fav app...deal with the instability. Also respond when asked questions..Version: 2.3.2
✓ Handy Photo - HIGHLY DISAPPOINTEDI can't believe cnet recommended this app. It's a joke. My search was for a photo editing app that had an excellent cloning tool. I started very simple to clone some grass into an open spot at a photo shoot location. The cloning tool is an absolute MESS and it in no way AT ALL blends to even remotely look like the grass around it. I am so disappointed and not only that and even though it's only $1.00, cnet advertises this app at $1.99 yet when you click to go to the App Store, it is actually $2.99! I will be contacting Apple to see about a refund as I opened the app once and won't use it again. They should not allow such a mess of an app to be sold or downloaded from Apple..Version: 2.3.1
✓ Good but crashy with latest OSWorked fine till latest OS upgrade. Tried to use move feature. Had to repeatedly save between actions as just kept crashing and losing all my work. I love this program. Shame it now seems buggy with latest OS..Version: 2.3
✓ Keeps crashing on iOS 6I wouldn't bother with this application... Mine doesn't even allow me to open a photo and crop / edit it... It just keeps crashing... Save your money as unless they sort out these buys its useless! For info, I am running a 64gb ipad 3 wi-if / cellular which has the latest iOS update applied. Really frustrated at the crap software getting onto App Store these days :0(.Version: 1.0
✓ It's a great app but need updates - unable to save on ipad air - always crashI love this app but unfortunately i am giving it three stars because every time i did all of my editing and about to save it, it crashes or the app shut itself down. I'd give five stars once it's able to save without having it shut down. Thanks!.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Potentially awesomeTried once and was blown away with the ease of use and large amount of functions available.... Unfortunately that's all I could do as every time after that the app crashes when trying to load a different picture from album to edit..Version: 2.1.0
✓ CrashingWe need a new update. It continually crashes on iOS 10.3.1 on the newest iPad..Version: 2.4.1
✓ RidiculousI used to love this app. Now it’s absolutely ridiculous. You can’t import pics and when you do the app closes. I’m done.Version: 2.4.1
✓ What ???Up date this crappy app or give me m'y monétaire back!! No .TIFF support. What Kind of app is that ??? Photos get on the wrong side for no reason when I open file. Not ready for the market. Update this, oderwise give me back my money..Version: 2.4
✓ Good but...The app crashes as soon as I try to open the galery :/ Other than that, the app works great. iPad Air latest os.Version: 2.2.1
✓ Recent ProblemsI love the app's capabilities, when it works, but it has become unreliable. Not sure if it's because of recent iOS updates. I'm finding when working with Snapseed and I attempt to open my photo in this app, it won't load or it loads an unedited low quality original. I've tried using my saved photos, and I get the same result. The photo won't open in this app, or I get a version with with a greenish tinge. I've tried deleting and reinstalling, and that doesn't help. I hope that it can be fixed, but for now I'm deleting it..Version: 2.4.1
✓ Not User Friendly, Keeps Logging OutThe app seems easy to use initially, but you get stuck in the middle of editing with no easy guidance. The app also continuously just logs out in the middle of editing..Version: 2.4.1
✓ ErraticVery erratic in use, and its not at all intuitive, as its not immediately apparent what each control icon does..even with the help function (i.e. pressing the "?"). Often seems to just freeze and give up, necessitating a restart. I mostly intended using this for removing objects and it doesn't do a bad job as such, but I have switched to using 'retouch' by advasoft instead, mainly because retouch is so much easier to use. If this were updated, and made more stable and user friendly, it would make a useful tool..Version: 2.4.1
✓ Broken...A fab app normally. Alas, whilst the camera works, it is not accessing photos under iOS8. Hopefully a fix is in the air....Version: 2.1.0
