I've been using this app for a while now and I absolutely loved it to edit photos for my website. However, lately the app has been crashing in the middle of me editing a picture. When I go to it and I try to edit again, it'll do the same thing over and over again. Also, if it does let me finish editing a picture when I go to save it, it just kicks me back to home and the unedited version is there, losing all of the work I did on the picture. It's ridiculous since I pay for this app.

Be very careful when trying to sign up for the free trial - I don't remember exactly what I clicked, but I ended up paying for a monthlong subscription while trying to do the trial. I can't go back and check (since my unwanted subscription is still active), but I'm guessing the app is purposely designed to trick you. (I've already deleted the app, so if anyone on your support team can give me my 8 bucks back, I'll increase my rating to three stars. Obviously not holding my breath there.)

Used VSCO for YEARS! was the only photo editing app I would constantly come back to and love. however, they put basic editing tools behind a pay wall. puts a bad taste in my mouth. lost a customer. I have bought many preset filters from them and intended on continuing to do so. I'm not going to pay any amount of money to put a GRAIN on my pictures. seeing many other users saying the same thing. very sad. do better VSCO...
