Polarr: Photo Filters & Editor for Positive User Reviews

Amazing!This is a no gimmick essential photo editing tool that any seriously invested keen photographer should own without a doubt. This quality is few and far between. A true asset. The effects I can create are amazing by being able to alter the background only or sky etc adding overlays is an option too. You can go in to a photo and select a person then brighten and whiten their teeth, clarify eyes or adjust lighting. This is my ‘go to’ editing app hands down!.Version: 6.0.12

Polarr is swag 😎This app is so good. I’m still pretty new to it but from what I’ve seen it’s better then any other editing app I’ve used before. My favorite aspect is how user friendly it is! With other apps I’ve tried they were hard to understand and confusing but with Polarr it was easy to figure out and understand! Another aspect are the styles. I love how easy they are to share and use! It can make it to where it can change it from one color completely to another which is very hard to do on other apps. My last point id like to talk about is their discord server. I recently joined/got invited to it so I haven’t been able to chat much but from what I’ve seen it’s absolutely amazing! I never see discord servers of it to have such active and helpful staff! In all id say polarr has to be my favorite editing app and I’m excited to see what I can learn in the future to come <33.Version: 6.1.0

Excellent app, BUT...Just revisited Polarr after several years--some great improvements! Love the brush and the auto-selection features, especially. However, I've been begging for years: Please change it back to landscape mode!! (Or make an iPad-exclusive version). Do you know how inconvenient it is to edit photos on a big iPad Pro with attached keyboard turned sideways? Try it, developers--it's ridiculous! This is supposedly a professional editing app, not juvenile Instagram filters. Also, I do not appreciate the social junk attached (I just ignore it). This also knocks it down a notch from being a professional program. Other than those two gripes, it's great! I purchased Polarr a long time ago; I'm both pleased and disappointed with the directions it has taken over the years..Version: 6.0.43

Used to love, but the new update messed everything up.I’ve been using Polarr since late 2016, and for the most part it’s been pretty great, with a few bugs in between and issues with the quality, but the problems were fixed quite quickly. I purchased Polarr Pro’s selective adjustments in around 2017 and it worked fine, but recently with the new Polarr SO many new issues have risen. The first time I updated it to the new Polarr, it would not let me save any of my selective adjustments. Gradient, color masks, none of them would save. Sometimes it would crash, other times it wouldn’t even save as the filter I had filtered it as, but instead another filter I had previously made?? Recently, a few issues have been fixed but new problems have started. Everything including gradient and radial all work with my purchases but when I add the color scale to a color mask, it doesn’t save. The color mask is still there, but the actual color scale is zero. Please fix these issues, or bring back the old Polarr and work on the new one on the side. So many new issues that me and quite a few of my friends who have been using it for a long time are giving up on it..Version: 5.1.2

Pls bring spot removal back!!!!Polarr has always been my fav photo editor on iPhone. But why did you remove this really useful and powerful feature🥲 And I haven’t found any other feature as a substitution. I still use other features but feel it’s such a pity that you removed spot removal.Version: 6.0.32

Some suggestions :)Polarr is a really good app, I just think that there should be an option so that the filters could also be added in videos. That’s all but besides from that I really love the app..Version: 6.0.32

Spot Removal?Seems like if the app cannot recognise any faces then it’s greyed out to do any kind of spot removal work... Have I missed something? Because I swear we used to be able to do this. Now unless the face icon isn’t greyed out - there’s no way to do it..?.Version: 6.0.36

Amazing, it’s free!You have a choice of different filters and and cropping your photos and if your Face is in it, you can smoothen it and render it. Rlly convenient !!!!!.Version: 5.0.5

GREAT!This app is GREAT! I am able to do lots more things that I could ever imagine. I always wanted to to something with photography and this has enabled me to do so..Version: 3.0.1

Love this app!Actually love Polarr - it helps with posting on my fan page and main so much! The only problem is there are a lot of times where I have blue bars around the picture when I put a filter on it which is really annoying! Another than that though it’s amazing, and I would totally recommend ♥️.Version: 5.10.16

I CANT UPDATE 😢I really liked polarr a lot It’s great for instagram and my edits have been getting a lot more views 🥳 However, with some of the filters it’s say that I have to update the app but there is no option on iPhone and I really want to get these new filters! Please help ❤️ Eniola.Version: 5.10.21

Actually, I would say this is a BIG improvementEdit: Oct. 3, 2020 No way to shut off announcement nag screen?? Seems to never go away and no option to remove sadly. Everybody seems to hate the new update, but actually, I would say this is a BIG improvement from the previous version. (ONLY REAL BUMMER IS: Batch Save is a “premium feature now”) Far as I can tell everything is still there in the free non-subscription version worth is salt and the new additional tools and tool finding layout is a huge benefit for expediting the editing process so I don’t see the issue. Most people just hate change once their used to something but I feel this new update adds more value to the previous version so I’m all for it. — nice work guys 👏🏻.Version: 6.0.19

Polarr has helped me grow.I have used polarr for years now. I love the way I can creatively express myself with ease. Being able to share and create filters, and use others filters is such a great idea! If you can't make a filter that fits your picture correctly, there are thousands of creators who have created filters that will fit! Not to mention, you can easily take inspiration from other creator's filters to help create your own filters. There are so many options that there is no need to completely copy a filter. Even changing one thing may have a drastic difference. I love polarr and will not be leaving it anytime soon, if I ever leave at all!.Version: 6.1.0

Amazing, one bugThis app is amazing, i use it all the time and i love it. not sure if this is just me, but it keeps telling me to “clear my editing history” then it will say zero editing history, but keep telling me there’s no room. it also seems to crash on me a lot. i’m really hoping this gets fixed in the future so i can continue using it.Version: 6.0.27

The best photo editorI had some stability issues with the app at first but this seems to be getting better with each update. Overall, this is the best photo editor for iOS, easily surpassing the very limited Adobe Lightroom mobile. The amount of features available is amazing. Whilst I don’t like subscriptions, I understand they need to do this to maintain and support the app and at least it’s good that subscriptions gives you full access to the app on any platform. I think the only thing missing is full RAW support. Once that’s available, I think we have a strong contender against Affinity photo..Version: 5.0.4

Great results but a few bugsFor the actually editing, I would give this 5 stars. I also appreciate their useful tutorials and the many thoughtful touches that went into the app design (although the UI is rather confusing at first, once you figure out the guiding organization, it makes sense). The cloning/healing feature is the only one I really did not like in terms of how it's implemented. Way too fidgety; no apparent way to deal with larger areas. Other apps do a much better job. The two-hour trial of the pro version has almost persuaded me to scrounge up the $20, though it also introduced some concerns. Using more than one shape caused stability problems. It seems you can't use different colors for added shapes. Liquify didn't perform as well as I hoped, either. All in all, though, the actual photo-editing results were superior to what I've been able to achieve in the numerous other apps I've tried..Version: 4.3.1

One small thingLove this app, though would love it more if you could do little touch ups (spots, etc.) - unless it’s already there but I can’t see it. Other than that it’s one of my favourite apps..Version: 4.6.0

Swag 👀‼️SO DAMN AMAZING 👏 The filters, the way the app works, the customer service. Everything is amazing. Polarr for sure is one of the coolest apps I’ve used and I use it daily! Polarr is a great way to express your creativity. 10/10 i recommend this app. They even made a discord server to listen for feedback from the users themselves! They’re a very considerate team and are so so nice <3 (they even interact with you :0) definitely one of the best apps I’ve ever used :) Thank you Polarr for being so amazing and nice!.Version: 6.1.0

Amazing appI’ve been using polarr for 2 yrs now! the amount of suggestions polarr gives for you to create amazing filters is incredible because not a lot of filter creating apps have all these suggestions that polarr gives. especially the overlays tool, i really like that option because usually, you’d have to go to another app to place overlays. i also really love that polarr now has the protect filter because a lot of us filter creators were dealing with people stealing our filters and claiming them as their own. so now that they have this option, i use it all the time! i’d say the only option i wish polarr would add is a delete folder, where you had deleted filters from other creators you’ve saved and your own. i had an issue a few days ago, where i needed to use a filter, i couldn’t find it because i had deleted it a few days before that. it was very frustrating that i had deleted that filter without knowing so and there was no way i could get it back. but other than that, this app is amazing, and i really appreciate how polarr’s instagram account interacts with other filter users on instagram and how they have different challenges for people to participate in! it goes to show that they really care about their users!.Version: 6.5.4

Absolutely amazing! But.I enjoy this app very much but my one request is that you could use filters but add a video option, I would like to see a video option where I can add filters and my fav filters, other then that, great app.Version: 6.1.7

A PERSONAL FAVORITEPolar photo editing app is awesome! Without even feting into the paid version you get a ton of amazing options, filters, effects and tools! Believe me , these are not limited to the Instagram or Facebook or editing photoshop copycats! Polar is professional grade in quality, user interface, appearance and detail. Appreciated the prompts and helper which you can hide if you don’t need or dislike . I found It tremendously helpful. It’s not the easiest app, so I wouldn’t necessarily suggest it to someone not accustomed to some version of photo shop or another editing apps, but with with the helper option you can figure it out and deliver pro -level edited photographs. I am probably going to bite the bullet and purchase the pro version . It’s that good!.Version: 4.5.1

This app packs a serious punchI’ve probably only just begun to scratch the surface of what this app can really do. Currently I’m obsessed with being able to very quickly and easily change or remove the background and add an overlay to it or over my face. I was using the desktop version and it has some really nice filters unfortunately they’re not available on the app and or maybe they are but not for free..Version: 6.0.20

LOVE itLove this app. I use it on all my photos. I do embroidery and it really helps make photos of my embroidery pop Easy to use.Version: 6.8.8

It’s goodGood app.Version: 6.8.7

5/5Best editing app.Version: 3.6.0

Excellent photo editorGreat for serious editing. I especially like how it keeps a list of edits to the photo, so I can see their effect and undo easily. And that it has a tutorial to explain the effect of each adjustment..Version: 3.7.1

Great app but a few bugsI’ve been using polarr for over a year now and it’s always served me well. i’d been putting off writing a review for polarr for a good amount of time now though because polarr itself is a great app, i just thought my problem would’ve been mentioned by other users and been fixed by now, but my problem still exists. the app itself is very easy to use and has TONS of features to use for pretty much every type of photo. my problem is that after editing and exporting maybe 6 photos at a time (individually instead of with the batch export feature), when i try to open another picture polarr either freezes and crashes or very tightly crops the photo (usually when there is a face in the picture). i don’t think it has to do with the hardware polarr is being running on. this has been happening to me for a few months now on my ipad pro and even recently on a new iphone..Version: 5.3.9

Good Photo ProcessingThis works great as a photo processing tool. Would give it 5 stars if there was a heal tool. Unfortunately for any Sony shooters we need to deal with dust on the sensor a LOT. But in terms of photo processing quality, this app is an improvement on the built in Apple photos app..Version: 6.5.4

FailuresI use this app daily, and it’s great! However, I’ve gotten a lot of problems with importing filters. I’ve had to delete it and re download it constantly because it when I click the import filter button, absolutely nothing happens. That’s probably the only flaw but it’s problematic.Version: 5.10.19

Polaar. The number means to reset a picture of a vintage imageIf you’re looking for something to use editing, use the Polaar “stable” to edit, iOS included, that its picture tools help your jpeg(?) file look like the original photo you saw in the viewfinder, this App is a really good answer, the best…! (Others are ‘also rans’) which I ever have known. Even tools allow testing various, different flows, called filters, including total Undo functions and undo in removing steps, indeed. I also had created a jpeg of a proper copy of a cover picture of a newspaper Sunday Magazine, from many years ago and agree totally that adjusting with Polaar app was the only way to go. Polaar was used in iOS mobile after I quickly took a good enough jpeg, Polaar let me do adjustments, allowing me too, to undo, any number for me, and recovered on the jpeg in color incredibly [image file jpeg capture of newspaper magazine simply produced w/DSLR) from a publication long before now becoming to too delicate set hands on..Version: 6.8.1

Pretty GoodThe features in this app are pretty great, actually- everything is in one place which is very practical. My only major annoyance is that you only get one free export a day without upgrading. The cost to upgrade is fairly reasonable, especially for what the app is- but I’d like it if we could export more than one picture a day with the free version. Even if it were like 3 a day, or maybe unlimited exports but without the option of choosing if it is saved as a png/jpeg/the quality etc. Other than that, you can get around just fine without upgrading and not feel terribly frustrated. It’s nice that the app doesn’t accost you demanding you upgrade every time you open it. Over all a pretty capable and easy to navigate photo editor..Version: 5.5.1

Nice filtersIt’s a great app but it would be way better if you could use filters on videos too.Version: 6.0.40

Amazing but..Amazing program been using for years and highly recommend it as an alternative to Lightroom my only bug is on the iPad please allow to auto rotate instead of having to edit portrait mode is really annoying when you use the iPad in landscape mode mainly please enable to work in both modes.Version: 6.0.38

Some problemsI love this app, because not many apps will let you save a photo without a logo on it but (and I’m not sure if this is my phones fault) every time I open the app, my phone gets so hot that I have to edit a photo in 2 minute intervals because I would burn my hands. Another problem I have is that sometimes the app will close half way through and I will loose the photo..Version: 5.4.6

What happened. 😐Seriously ? why would you make the limit of filters 3 ?? you do know this can make people STOP using YOUR app ? annoying things like this makes people upset at the fact that they can't have good things and your app was one of those good things. this update of the filters having a limit of only 3 is so unnecessary. people will only get angry and delete this app & write bad reviews like these instead of just buying the membership. its a waste of money especially since its only for a bit of time. at least change it back to make it a good app again, otherwise people will just delete it and write bad reviews like this.Version: 6.5.9

Hope the heart for the favourite photos can be seen when I tap “open photos”It used to be designed like this but after I updated the app, the “open photos” part was different. I think it’ll be more convenient to be able to see the heart for the favourite photos as the previous version. Thank you!.Version: 5.5.10

Why i love polarr so muchPolarr made me more of a creator by seeing how different filters and effects can alter photos and make them look a certain way which has inspired me to start creating filters myself, my favorite aspects are definitely the variety of things to do. polarrs style creation helps me create more content in the way that i can do so many things in the ways i want to, from adding overlays, brightening or darkening, adding more color/changing the color and being able to try new looks on photos, it really inspired me to create filters of my own that i can share with people. i use polarr for editing any pictures i use, like profile pictures and shared content, polarr is the best filter app i've ever used and one i will continue to use time and time on. i would absolutely recommend polarr to anyone looking to mess with the appearance of their photos, the only issue i've had so far was my photo going black after looking at too many filters, other than that everything is fantastic ^^.Version: 6.1.0

RevGreat app.Version: 6.8.12

IncredibleHands down the best photo editing software i have ever used. It’s incredibly easy to pick up, and the results speak for themselves..Version: 6.0.38

I’m a photographer and have been using for yearsI started using this app for my photography when i was 15. I am now 23 and use it everyday. Photoshop is great, but it’s overly complex. This app is very user friendly and i find that i can do pretty much everything i need to do as a photographer in this app, so why use photoshop? It’s way cheaper and easier. If your starting out or if your a professional, you need this app. It will dramatically increase your workflow with its simplicity and user friendly design. It would take me hours to edit a group of photos in photoshop, and it will only take 30-45 mins in this app..Version: 6.8.1

Pro not workingI downloaded the app to edit my photos, I got pro because it was good value and downloaded it on my computer, iPhone and iPad. I logged in on computer and iPhone fine but when I logged in on my iPad it knew my account but not as a Pro account! It said I can use the same account on up to 5 devices and this is only 3, I tried using the tools I normally use and it won’t let me! V disappointed as I do most of my editing on my iPad!.Version: 5.3.9

Worst update everI used to love love love this app, but the update is so disgusting, the design...everything is wrong and much harder than it used to be..Version: 6.0.9

Early adopterI’ve been using this app since it started and I’ve never had a problem. Clean interface, non destructive for larger files and a pleasure to use. If there was one gripe to keep it honest I’d ask for the ability to edit in landscape mode for iPad. Top tier apart from that! Thank you & kudos to the developers!.Version: 6.6.8

I’m sadI really like the old layout on iOS, it’s still the old one on Mac but would like an option to use the old layout on iOS as well. It was really nice and easy to navigate..Version: 6.0.9

DON'T UPDATEI've been using this app since it began across many devices. It is hands down the best there is when it comes to functionality, usability and results. I never, ever review apps but I feel obligated to tell you that removing the text feature from this app has rendered it useless to me. I have kept on version 5 and won't update until it's back if it ever comes back. I don't mean to sound cheeky as I'm sure you know what you're doing but this simple feature is so foundational and basic in an editing app that you have opened me up to downloading other apps, with similar features and with the ability to edit and add text. On a consumer level, I want to use one app and sorry to say but if i can fix highlights on the other one and text, i wont be using Polar anymore. That being said if adding/ editing text etc is something you don't need or use then you really can't go wrong here. For me, version 5 has the features i need. Thanks for making my life easier for the last few years, i use it mainly to edit pictures of the Scottish Highlands (mainly around Loch Ness area, up the mountains) and being able to edit at this level and export at the qualities available is a total godsend..Version: 6.0.9

LOVEWhat can i say? Best editing app by far, i’ve already made my whole photo library aesthetic FREE! Sure some filters are the premium but you can see that with a sparkle icon, i normally just use the scan codes anyway. What are you waiting for? Download it!.Version: 6.8.0

My Go To Editing App!Polarr has made me more of a creator considering their thousands of filters and adjustments available to use. I can just let my mind roam free without thinking of what the end will look like. Usually, in the end the pictures always look beautiful. It has introduced me to different adjustments i was never aware of. My favorite aspects throughout the app most likely would have been the filters, and the creators within the app. They make filters almost daily for our use. It’s just awesome! Using others’ filters & my own help me create more content by letting me just create the image I have in my mind. If I have a photo and think there should me more of a certain hue or sharpness, I’ll make a filter of it! And if I can’t get what I’m looking for, I search the discover tab! Overall, Polarr is just an AWESOME way to express yourself and a unique way to figure out your own style and create inspiring photos!.Version: 6.5.3

Diminishing creativity and passion in favor of profitsI know rating it so high seems counterintuitive but I’m online doing this so it gets seen easier. Please change it back. The subscription is terrible and is screwing over the entire user base. Nobody likes this, nobody wants this. It is screwing over the passion and joy of art and creativity in favor of corporate profit and greed. I use Polarr for many things such as editing my artwork, editing sketches, editing, and many other creative outlets. This not only screws the user base over but will screw you guys over in the process. And even IF some of the profit goes to creator who make filters in the creator fund it doesn’t change the fact that many people aren’t privileged enough to afford a subscription. Most of the user base from my experience are teens, and most teens can’t afford some subscription..Version: 6.8.7

Powerful and friendlyThis app is insane! Super intuitive and effective. There are plenty of present filters to use, and you can make your own custom presets. The developers of this app have been generous with the free features vs what you get if you pay for the pro features. Thanks guys!.Version: 5.3.9

Everything I wantedHistograms, curves, circular and graduated filters, plus all your basics - all packaged into a brilliantly logical interface. This isn't Lightroom awkwardly adapted for mobile. It's built for mobile and just makes sense. Such an enabler!.Version: 1.0

Better than any other editing appHonestly when i look at peoples pictures i cringe knowing that theyre not using polar and using pre-made filters that look corny. polar letting me make my own filters is something i never regretted and i will never go back to using premade filters.Version: 6.8.14

The best free editing app out thereI’ve always wanted a good editing app that’s free and easy to use, stumbled across Polarr and now live buy it..... definitely recommend giving it a try!.Version: 4.6.0

Good for photography editingI do photography and I use this app for photos on the go and honestly it can make a bad picture go from alright to beautiful, recommend download but there is some things you may have to pay to use but the free version includes all what I need and want, thanks to the developers not being as much as a scam as others I could be satisfied with my photography, but there is no text tool anymore which disappointed me a small bit but still it’s a lot better and extremely easy and simple to use! (❍ᴥ❍ʋ).Version: 6.0.16

LOVE THIS APP!!!I have been looking for a pro level photo editing program to use for all the photos I take as a travel blogger. I just was reluctant to jump on he lightroom bandwagon. After reading a ton of positive reviews about Polarr from photographers, I decided to give it a try. Within minutes I was hooked! It is such a powerful tool and the fact that you can use it across multiple platforms is HUGE! I initially had some trouble unlocking the pro features on my laptop that I paid for in the phone app. But within minutes of writing to support I got a response and within 24 hours they had fixed the kink. Can’t beat that! I’m so thrilled with this app and excited to master all of its amazing features!!!.Version: 4.9.9

Crashes since updateWon’t open after update.. love the app.Version: 6.0.9

Polarr is so good !!Polarr is very good for me because I have a fan page and do edits so I can use the filters to have themes plus it’s really easy to use 😌.Version: 6.0.9

My Goto EditorPreviously my editing workflow would be Snapseed and Photoshop. However, the continual subscription model for Photoshop was not what I was after. Read a review for Polarr and it’s not my number 1 editor - primarily for the graduated filters but the plethora of tools are superb, try the AI masking it does an incredible job. Highly recommended app - put it in your photo editing workflow and you won’t regret it. A+++.Version: 5.10.20

Good app, but this is now ridiculousI want to start by saying I like this app and what I can do with photos I've taken, but I have recently run into a problem. The other day I edited a photo, only to be told i needed to upgrade to be able to save my edited photo. Once I did this, i was charged around £25 and believed I would be able to save photos in the future; This was not the case however, as after editing a photo today I was told I still needed to upgrade. I've checked the app store and it has said my subscription is still valid and will renew next year, so why can't I save me photo?.Version: 6.6.8

I’m a bit confused?I have a yearly subscription to Polarr that’s already paid through April of 2023, but now I need this new subscription to use the feature I already paid for? Do I get a refund for the time I already bought? If that’s the case not a problem, but a email explaining the changes to current paid subscribers would be nice. Not to mention it’s the shaky legality of this. I pretty sure your not allowed to just change payment plans that are still active and on a whim, but I’m not a lawyer. Regardless a emai explaining this would have gone a long way. Also this is the first time in the history of me using apps that I have felt the need to write a review!!! 😑.Version: 6.6.2

Fantastic app but needs fixingI have been loving this app for quite some time now, But since the recent update I cannot use pro features although I am a monthly subscriber, please fix, thanks.Version: 5.3.0

Feels familiar and fresh all at the same timeI really love that Pollar hasn't tried to squeeze Lightroom onto mobile. Does exactly what you want, when you want, and does it simple..Version: 1.3.3

Best app I could find but..I have been using this app for a little over a year and everything has been perfect so far but recently I’ve started to notice a slight change or bug if you will. I click on the app and everything is fine when I edit a photo, I am a pro member, but when I click out and then back into that same photo, suddenly it’s super cropped to the point where there is barely anything to see. And it also will not let me save any filters I have created. Other times when I click into a photo I desire to edit, the screen goes black (sometimes it becomes white) and I have to restart the app. Please fix this bug and I will continue to use the app because it has become very frustrating. I rarely write reviews...Version: 5.5.1

Gray appThis is a great app for people who have the slightest clue about photo editing. It is easy to use ! Direct and incredible !!.Version: 4.3.1

I’ve tried several apps, this one is the best.App for photography is really based on personal needs. Personally I am not a professional photographer like those in National Geography magazines. Photoshoot is just my hobby and learn over time with my NIKON F4, NIKON D90 and now my iPhone 7. I always edit most photo to correct some lightning, noises and HDR (manually). Adobe Lightroom is my favourite on my desktop PC/MAC but these days, I am mobile and I don’t really spend as much time sitting at home edit photo. I need something on the go, there is Adobe Lightroom app on iOS but I really do not feel and justify enough to pay $10 USD monthly subscription. It sucks Adobe kill of all the standalone applications. Polarr is my saviour, $30 USD unlock all on iOS app sounds expensive but it is still better than paying monthly or a insane triple digits price applications. I know they can do so much more than a $30 app but again like I said at the beginning, base on what I need. Polarr is fantastic, works well with my workspace NIKON SD card lightning dongle import to my iPhone 7 then edit on Polarr. For the moment JPG mode is the only way until Polarr improve support on NEF RAW files. I’ve read up some review, not a cash cow app. It is buy what you need and what you get. You can pay for all tools except filters if you never going to use filters since you can do them manually with the tools. This is options for people, you are not forced to pay full $30 unlock all price unless you want to support the dev..Version: 4.2.0

One of my favourite apps (sort of)I’m a photo editor on Instagram, I’d all sorts of quote and photo edits with tv show characters, and this app has been really helpful for that to use filters, and make my own. Though I’m not such a big fan of the new update, it will probably just take some time getting used to. And on the old version you could use a light mode, which you can’t anymore. It’s not such a big deal I just prefer the white over black 🤷🏼‍♀️.Version: 6.0.12

Greatly RecommendIt’s a really good photoshop app i use it on my macbook too. I think a brushing tool on the phone app would be nice, also to be able to edit face and makeup. 👍🏽.Version: 6.0.12

Thankyou!Hi I’ve completely misread the subscription plan my bad, I now have access to everything and the latest update solved my problems, thankyou!.Version: 5.0.5

Polarr Lite = Cash GrabI’m going to start by saying… I absolutely love Polarr. I have been a premium subscriber for a couple of years and I love it. However, now that money is tight and I had to trim the subscription fat, I switched to “Lite” because the description said it included “access to premium filters.” I thought this tier might save me some money. But it’s literally a cash grab. You can access premium filters but you can’t do anything with them. I tried to use the filters I made, but I can’t save the filtered image. I suggest not purchasing Lite. It’s a waste of money and now I’m stuck with it for an entire year. I think I’m going to switch to Lightroom. It felt like they lied just to sell a lower tier that doesn’t offer anything a free app could do. I would be happy if I could use my filters and save images but couldn’t adjust or create them because that would be a premium feature. Again. I love Polarr but this buisness model of leading the consumer on with misleading verbiage is why I’m writing this review and why I’m contemplating removing Polarr completely from my social media budget..Version: 6.8.10

Filter problemPolarr has been an amazing app for me to use because of the filters! I sometimes import filters that other people make but i have this problem where sometimes I import a filter but it wont let me import it. It doesnt say anything and I dont think i reached the max numbers of filters. Can you fix this please Thank You.Version: 5.10.4

AwesomeI've been using Polar for over two years now...its a excellent product!!!.Version: 6.0.38

Powerful yet simple to useOne of the better free photo editors out there. For a novice user like me I throroughly recommend this app.Version: 4.4.4

Batch Save -1This is perfect as I make stop motions with my phone and it’s so much easier to edit in bulk. Only reason I’ve taken a star down is that when hatch saving, all the images (though in order upon editing) come out in a completely random order. Very frustrating. Have to end up saving 150+ images one by one. Other than that, this does everything and more.Version: 5.10.20

One of the best editing appsSuper powerful, this app does everything you could want an app to do, and has a great Photos extension too. A must download.Version: 2.3.0

Best editing app yet!I’ve tried and tested many editing apps, and since I don’t use the premium version, many of them weren’t good. The other apps were just so bad, the picture ended up looking overly saturated and super cheesy. The only way you could have edited well on those apps are if you used the premium feature, and they were expensive! After testing many apps and almost giving up, I found Polarr. The editing actually looks natural and pretty and the functions and tools are really easy to use. Ultimately, my pictures ended up looks beautiful! The only request or frustration I have with this app is that there is no home screen so the only pages you have is the photo you are editing, which bothers me a little. But in terms of the editing quality, this app is perfect for me!.Version: 5.2.0

I luv itI absolutely love this app, it’s amazing and it helps me with my fanpage on instagram. not only that but my personal. the best thing about it is that it’s free and most of the tools are free. the only thing i dislike about the app is the ad every time i finish making an edit, it asks me if i want to try gradient and i click try now because there is no other option except ‘upgrade’ and it makes me add gradient. when i go to edit my next picture and i come to save it, it says that i’m using pro features. so i have to restart the app so it’ll let the try gradient thing stop. but overall it’s the best filter app EVER. i would definitely recommend this to friends..Version: 5.5.10

The most complete photo editor. With a very intuitive interface.The only set of tools to improve images..Version: 6.8.15

Highly customised for phone. Easy to useReally like object masks and amount of tweaks and controls it offers. Also five stars for settings copy and paste feature. Not really useful filters in demo mode. However has lot of functionality in demo mode even. Pls don’t take it back. I would anyways go for paid version eventually, if this offers one time purchase..Version: 5.9.3

Photos extension is broken for me - Fixed!Edit: seems to be fixed, works great! Tried this out for the first time with my iPhone 8 running iOS 11 and not a single photo opens correctly when using the extension, which is a shame because the rest of the app seems to do the job..Version: 4.3.1

The app is good butI have used most of the editing apps in the market, from free to paid. This app is very good, it has almost all the features to make the photos stand out in an easy steps. But....... it crashes a lot. Every time I edit a photo, it freezes..Version: 5.4.11

AstoundingI very rarely write reviews, but this app is simply brilliant. Photos from my phone are quite poor so to be able to pick them up with such a detailed app is so refreshing to see. Thankyou..Version: 5.5.0

First class editing experienceI increasingly found myself turning to Polarr for photo editing on iOS, to the point that it is now all I use. It’s intelligently designed for quick easy editing, but with impressive depth. I thought the Face editing feature was a bit of a gimmick, for instance, but have discovered that you don’t have to use it to make your subjects look like aliens. A quick subtle brightening of the eyes, some colour in the lips, and you have an image that looks a bit closer to the person you were trying to capture. There are other delights. The range of masks, and the ease of applying them. The range of export options, and the ease of applying them. The filter selection system, which is a big improvement on VSCOcam. (That said, I’d like to be able to use my collection of VSCO filters in Polarr. Not always better, just different.) Also, sharing from the Photos editing interface. And the fact that on the iPhone, I can do some really in-depth editing just with one hand. I’d like some cloud-based sharing of edited images between the iOS and Mac apps, and some more B&W filters, but these are minor things. This is carefully crafted software, well worth supporting. Thanks for your fine work..Version: 5.0.1

What happened?Why was the layout and the app itself redesigned? It was perfectly fine before where you could just scroll your fingers across and measure up to 100 or down to -100, simple yet useful and refreshing to make my pictures pop. Now it’s just plain and looks like you, no intention to offend or accuse, made it appear to look like the Darkroom app layout. It’s also glitchy my photos go blank when editing and only reappears when I click the before picture and never shows the picture I was in the midst of editing. In my opinion, the new things you’ve added are okay it would’ve been fine in the original layout and just as pleasing without the aesthetic to “just get it edited it doesn’t matter what it looks like so we made it all black” change. It’s also confusing, you hit adjust and flicker some changes and hit the check button and you’re like “huh? I have to edit all on the same tab?” it’s confusing having to remember I have to edit all of them on one tab itself that’s just sitting in a line above the adjusters instead of being able to hold down the adjusters and change it to what pleases you. Other than that it’s great..Version: 6.0.9

Amazing AppBest App with powerful functions to edit photos!.Version: 6.8.10

Lowers Photo QualityI really do love this app. I’ve been using it for quite some time now and i have to say it’s super easy to use and it’s honestly so different from other editing apps like VSCO or Afterlight, etc. However i find that when saving my edit to my camera role, it lowers the quality of the photo, which is very disappointing since the edit looks so amazing prior to saving it. It’s like i get a final result I’m happy with and when i save it and check the photo just saved, the quality is not as good as shown on the app itself. Because of this i started to use other editing apps, none of which allow me to create edits just like this app does. So please fix this as i really want to have good quality photos!!.Version: 4.6.0

Minor bugs but overall greatI’ve been using this since I was a teenager. Perfect app for me. Only some buggy errors with purple filters. I’m not sure about how quick the developer fixes these issues..Version: 6.5.3

A Really Good AppI use this app 24/7 to edit pictures of all sorts of things, this app is truly amazing and if you’re a beginner at photography, I recommend using this app. I’m nearly in College and use the app to help my photos look more appealing. I’m currently on trial and my pictures already look amazing. As I already said, if you’re a beginner at photography, use this app to help your pictures pop out and make it look like a Masterpiece. ♥️.Version: 5.3.9

This app is amazing.First of all, I’d like to mention how crazy this app is. It just has soooo much !! And it’s mostly free. As a creator who has a lot of surrounding colour coding and making my feeds aesthetic - Polarr helps so much with that. And it’s just so easy to use and so friendly in the way everything functions. The curves, saturations and hues are just so wonderfully easy to work around and it’s easily one of my favourite features to work with considering with how much the app offers. I also adore the community and how easy it is to get in touch with other creators, make friends and just being able to admire and use other peoples talent is just cool. Making filters and using other creators filters is simply amazing as it helps me to get myself to out there to make and work with different styles and ways to make my work pop and get exposure to new experiences Not only that their app for filtering videos is an absolute game changer !!! Easily 10/10.Version: 6.5.3

Amazing!I can understand the frustrations some people have had in the past. However, the app will always continue to evolve and improve, and with that comes the responsibility to learn how to use these new updates. I was really upset when all filters (other than the ones I pre saved and created before the subscription model started) required me to pay to use. But given it’s an app I used daily for several things, I was willing to pay the subscription fee. It’s worth it. I absolutely love the app, and haven’t found it much different or difficult to use than when I had discovered it two years ago. I think some people can’t withstand change. 🤷‍♀️ for a growing and powerful app, it’s no surprise to me that it would go from a pay once for access to subscription base. I still love it and will continue to use it! Though I would like to see a FAQ or Help page for laptop use, because I cannot use my upgraded account on my pc and nothing syncs over. However, I can sync and use my account across any mobile device. Which is perfectly fine, but I’d rather use on my laptop..Version: 6.8.10

Great for on the go edits, but…Have been an original purchased/owner/user since 1st released, and kept this software/app on all my devices, inc. my Windows laptop. However, this needs to be updated, so it can be used on larger iPads, 12.9" so it can be used in LANDSCAPE orientation for ease of use. Turning the iPad Pro 12.9 into portrait orientation is really no fun. Come on Polarr, don’t just be for the average phone/portrait users..Version: 6.0.40

WowThis app is amazing! I use lots of filters to edit and post on PicsArt. Only one problem. Every so often the app kicks me out or doesn’t let me edit the photo I want. Instead, it tells me to use another photo. Plzzz fix. 5 stars tho!!.Version: 6.0.19

Great!Intuitive, easy and a lot of great tools. Been using Polarr since its inception.Version: 6.8.8

Change it back nowI’m so happy to see that I am not the only one who is completely infuriated with the new update. Why would you completely change an entire app so that even experienced users are dumbfounded. I can’t for the life af me figure out the set up for the new way that overlays work, I cant even seem to apply an image in the style of a gradient like was able to do before. From 5 stars to 1, if could I’d give it none. You were a top rated app, why would you make such a move, that was dumber than dumb, at least have the courtesy to roll it out slowly. Not all at once. I had not known how much more useful this app was over my previous go to until the last few months. But once I really played around with it, it soon became my newest go to. I wish I had never updated. Also why is there not an easier way to delete my custom overlays, y’all didn’t bother to reconcile that situation. Who ever made this decision should be fired, or given a second chance to fix this mess that now takes up room on my phone. If something is not done soon, I will be requesting an entire refund 🤦🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️ this is not the app I paid for. Idk what this is..Version: 6.0.9

Brilliant app!!I’ve been using Polarr for well over two years now, and it does not compare to any other editing app!! It’s brilliant, easy to navigate and save your work, and so many good features are completely free. My only grumble is that the desktop version is not quite the same (for Mac) but it’s easy enough to use my phone for editing..Version: 5.10.17
