Font Candy Photo & Text Editor Positive Reviews
Great app but won't stop crashing.I don't know if it's just my device or if it's the app itself. I've been using this app a lot for editing photos and such and now it randomly crashes every time I use it. Sometimes it'll crash immediately; other times it lets me use it for a minute and then it crashes and erases all my hard work. It really upsets me that now I have to stop using this app due to all the crashing. I'm giving 4 stars because I've been using this app for around a year, and in that year it was great! Also, my device is generally not very good. So I wouldn't be surprised if it was just my device not being able to run this app, but at the same time I'm not sure so 4 stars for now. TL;DR This app is great and I've been using it for a year but it keeps crashing and I'm not sure if it's the app or my tablet so I give it 4 stars..Princess Flying UnicornVersion: 5.2.3
Great appEDIT: I forgot that I purchased long ago, & the full version is installed as “FONT CANDY +”, not “FontCandy” (restore purchase didn’t bring this up either)… There are TEN different options listed under in-app purchases, but ONLY ONE (weekly) option in the app—DESPITE HAVING UNLOCK EVERYTHING FIR $2.99 in description. No thanks—why not make this an option instead of/in addition to the trial? I installed over 3 years ago, before they converted to subscription model. It’s with the price, not the hassle of having to remember to unsubscribe or upgrade to avoid multiple charges. One star off for tricky subscription options. In-App Purchases Pro Subscription $1.99 Pro Subscription $0.99 Weekly Premium $1.99 Remove Watermark $0.99 Love Pack $0.00 Unlock Everything $2.99 Pro Subscription (1 Month) $1.99 All Fonts $1.99 Subscription (1 Month) $1.99 All Artwork $1.99.TedMooreVersion: 6.0.4
Love it for some reason it doesn’t work anymore!Been using this app for work but all of a sudden it doesn’t work anymore! When I put search it says I need internet connection, which I do, and it won’t work with data either (yes I checked my settings) so I uninstalled it and installed it again and now not only is the problem still the same but I can’t restore my purchases meaning the watermark is there and the fonts that I had everything disappeared and I can’t recover it! It’s very frustrating especially since I spent money on it..12lulu34Version: 5.5
Opened my worldI was recently asked to send photos to a company as part of my official product complaint. They asked me to put the reference number ON the photo. So, I went looking for an app that would help me. (I did not know my device had a markup feature!) Many required an iOS that I did not have, all seemed to subscription-based. But this one offered a 7 day free trial. So, I gave it a chance. It's nice! I won't be keeping my subscription because I don't need these services for my day-to-day life; but I could certainly see using this app if I were more active on social media. I'm glad I know it's out there, should things change. I found it user-friendly and inspiring. The options are plentiful. Just not for me, right now. Also, wish there were a free version..Beneficial App SeekerVersion: 5.2.7
Love This App!!!! But have some small suggestionsI don’t know how much you all pay attention to these reviews but I have a few suggestions that, in my humble opinion, would perfect this app. 1. It would be awesome if the size feature allowed users to specify width and/or length adjustments. Sometimes I want to make text wider without making it longer and vice versa. 2. Being required to upload an image seems outdated. It would be cool if users could type text directly onto the transparent background. 3. There should definitely be a “return to previous work” option so that editing a previously saved image doesn’t mean starting completely from scratch.
Other than those things, I love it!!!! It’s so great..EA2019Version: 5.2.2
Fonts are neat. Some things need tweaking.So I like being able to add text to my photos to get the poster look. Having the ability to order magnets, t-shirts, & pillows is neat too! However, when my photo is uploaded to those product templates it always cuts off the majority of my text and/or photo. The cropping isn't shrinkable but only zoomable. It would also be handy to have the sizes of 4x6, 5x6, and 8x10 available so that after utilizing the text features a person could print or order those size photos without having to use another application, like Snapfish. Also when adding the text in it lets you increase size and shrink text size but it would be better if you could set the perimeters so there are margins and the text doesn't run off the page when it is increased in size..R@zznJ@zz315Version: 5.2.2
Great but...I love what I can do with this app when in the midst of using it, but I have two main gripes 1) you can’t save progress so you essentially can either only work on one thing at a time or redo something from the beginning if you want to go back and make a small change, but the bigger issue is 2) for whatever reason, it almost always remains frozen for several minutes when I first open it; if I leave the app for long enough then come back, it does the same before I can start using it. Maybe something’s going on with my iPad Pro 10.5 (since I got it a year ago but it seems to have gotten worse) but it did the same thing on my iPad Mini 4 that I had before. I can’t reliably open app and get straight to work right where I left off. It’d be AMAZING if it wasn’t for these two things..Crimsonfox47Version: 5.4.3
Love itEasy to use. Something special happened to me with in the last 48 hours. And I decided to make an account that is an anonymous where no one knows my name or who I am or where I’m from exactly. To give me a chance to explain everything. I am in no way trying to say I am funded by this app. But I am definitely going to use it for any photo editing that I need and would love for them to sponsor me one day IF they choose. They are not obligated to. And I love this app very helpful and maybe one day I will hit the news once and become a hit for something great! But these are just Dream I realize that and am pretty “down to earth” so to speak. Will definitely recommend it to people..Lilwickedwitch2000Version: 5.4.1
Great App For Simple ProjectsI love having an app that allows me to make social media ads from my phone. I take my mock-up or picture, and I write in sale dates, discount codes etc. wish it were a bit more intuitive though. I haven’t found a way to edit a previously completed project. I don’t want to start over, I just want to change the date or replace the words Good Friday with the words Cyber Monday. I love the collection of fonts and color choices. I love how you can take text on a photo and animate it. It’s relatively easy to create professional looking ads..TheWayItIs!Version: 5.2.11
Great app but...This is an overall great app! It is a really fun past time if your bored. And can serve as a advertisement starter. However I must complain about the prices. I know that your company has to make money to keep it going but $1 a week seems a bit much especially if you only use it at the most once a week. As a suggestion maybe lower it to the amount of times you use it charge an amount. But otherwise this is a really great app that has lots of features (if you upgrade to your subscription) I highly recommend!!!😃.JdeibVersion: 5.2.7
Please give the option to edit past projectsI love this app! I have used it for probably 2 years as for promo & various projects. I pay for the extra features & appreciate the variety of fonts & other features! My ONLY complaint is not being able to edit my past projects. Sometimes I flub a name or date & I have NO way to fix it other than starting over which is such a bummer! If y’all could add that one feature it would be greatly appreciated..GirrrlRaeVersion: 5.4.2
Super laggy at timesI love this app. It has been a real good tool for me to use. But oh my. I am about to throw my phone across the room. The app has been super laggy lately, crashing all the time, and it’s so annoying. It’s gotten to the point where I don’t even want to use the app. I go to it thinking “Ugh I don’t want the lag but I have to use the app. Dreading this.” Please fix this, to help I have an Iphone 7 that works with every app but this one, so it must be the app..ThomasMCDMarvelVersion: 5.2.1
Honestly goodI don’t write reviews often. In fact, I never do. But I’ve been using font candy for a long time and I’m so impressed with what this free app can do. The only problem I have is that in the photos the App Store provides, there is a layering effect going on where the words can seem to go behind people, etc.- and as far as I know, this is unachievable on the app. :( but I imagine it’s very difficult, so I won’t hold it against them..Krt00Version: 5.2.7
Font Candy +My Font Candy + app that I paid for isn’t working. I do not even see it on the App Store anymore, but this is the same company. I need assistance with getting my app to run again. I see now it is a weekly subscription; I paid a one-time payment for full-access forever. What do I need to do to have full access to my creations and templates and the app itself?.Christinaa83Version: 6.0.4
Can’t even open the appHi, I really like the app but haven’t been able to open it without it crashing right away. Was like this for a long time but if forgotten about it until trying to get back in recently. The title screen will start to load and the bar at the bottom goes from empty to full, and then the app crashes. Is there at least a desktop version I can use or something of the sort of the app won’t work?
5 star for app. 1 star for crashing..KuhrtoeVersion: 6.1.1
I’m bummedI bought the app a few years ago and I even upgraded to the one time pay so I didn’t have a watermark, etc. Now, as I’m getting a new device, it seems that the subscription is the only way to get the things I already paid for.. The whole reason I picked this app over others in the long run was because I didn’t have to use a subscription — I found the one time pay worth it. I don’t want to pay monthly for something I use just for work related photos...B PaigeVersion: 5.4.3
When it works, it’s a fantastic app.5 stars if it didn’t crash so frequently.
It always crashes when I go in to “add artwork” and it’s a bit aggravating considering I primarily use this app to add text to photos/edits. I literally have to uninstall and then reinstall, which gets wouldn’t be so bad if I didn’t have to keep re-downloading text fonts cause don’t don’t carry over to the reinstall. Even after you restore purchase.
Important inconveniences that add up..I. KangVersion: 6.0.4
Could be betterI had this game for a little while and I have to say it was pretty boring. Just me as a person thought it was really boring. Also it was always crashing! So annoying. I couldn't be on the app for ten minutes without it crashing. The last thing I had a problem with is that every time I went on there was really offensive ads. Scary ads with creepy stalker people and ads with s*x. So please fix all of these things and take away those ads..Gracie TreyVersion: 5.4.1
App Works Great...Customer Service Non-ExistentThe app is great. I paid for the pro version and used it for years on my iPhone. I then upgraded to another iPhone recently and when I tried to restore my purchase, the app told me I would need to repay...for the same app I already paid for. I reached out to the customer service team and was told they would “look into it.” That was 8 days ago. No communication since. Extremely disappointing. I’ll be using a different app from now on..Ty Clarke 86Version: 5.6.5
Please help!I LOVED the photo editor that was sister to this app: Photo Candy. It was full of great shapes and patterns that were super fun to use and also an asset as an artist. Please bring it back! There’s nothing else like it in the App Store. Also GifX was amazing.
Please bring photo candy back! I would gladly pay a subscription fee for it! Live your other apps as well!.Stratajemma3Version: 6.0.4
Love - with one exceptionI absolutely love this application. It does everything that I want it to do. My only complaint is the subscription only option. I would be willing to pay $20 for this application if I didn’t have to subscribe to it. (As long as there were regular updates of course.) $48 a year is a bit outside my budget. That is my only complaint. Great job guys!.K'lyn ParisVersion: 5.2.2

Font Candy Photo & Text Editor Negative Reviews
A fun agile type app ruinedI downloaded the first versions of this app quite a few years ago and used it a lot. Finally, there was an app that allowed you to professionally adjust your type: letterspacing, line-spacing, and word-spacing (a very rare feature outside photoshop), and also the ability to set paragraphs of text in “justified” format. Like so many other type apps, there was no individual kerning, but there was an array of cool free fonts, and most critically, you could also load your own fonts. This made Font Candy a flexible, fun appto use when you just wanted to make a quick layout, without going into Photoshop. Sadly, that version is dead, replaced by this Instagrammy fangirl version. And on top of that a formerly free app is now on two dollars a week?! Are you kidding me? I would pay maybe, $25 a year. And if you could give me individual kerning, I’d pay maybe even $50 a year. But at the rate of two dollars a week, that’s an outrageous $104 a year. Get real. I’m all for developers getting paid so they can continue to provide and improve the app, but I’m afraid the developers of FontCandy have an unrealistic self appraisal of their app. It’s just not worth that price. I’ll just use Phonto-Pro, or fire up Photoshop..Niner RobVersion: 6.0.3
This used to be the only app I used...I had this app on my iPhone 6+ and due to me being rather forgetful about updating, I somehow managed to keep the version of the app where I didn’t have to fork over cash every week to keep the basic functions of the app active.
When I upgraded to a new phone and installed the app, to my horror, EVERYTHING - the Blender, half the fonts I regularly used, all of the features I used this app for - are now locked behind the greediest pricing I have seen in photography apps. I can’t afford a weekly drain on my finances just to use an app that was on my phone a month ago. I am utterly disappointed in this developer, this was my favorite editing app. Used it on everything.
Edit: To my utter dismay, my other favorite editing app, Fused, is also by Easy Tiger. I’m deleting all of their apps off my phone, even if they were to drop the price to $0.50/week, I’d refuse to give them money. These apps were free-use last year, and they literally took features away to place a pay-wall around them. Goodbye, Easy Tiger..Cleo SolarisVersion: 5.4.3
Used to be greatThis app had much greater stability once upon a time. I’ve been using this app since 2014. It’s always had the option for your payed effects and things which I didn’t mind. It’s free section was more than enough for me. I made a lot of cool stuff with this app and have loved it. But they’ve since overhauled their text rendering which is now not good. Getting to the text boxes was easier and moving the text was easier. Some of the effects don’t work properly any more. I was doing an annual project replicating an image to watch my growth. I can no longer accomplish the same result. While I understand apps moving forward and changing over years… this is not that. They had something good and in my opinion ruined it in an attempt to make it better. Hope it gets fixed someday. For now I’m going back to the 2k16 edition on my old iPad..CryptokryptoniteVersion: 6.0.4
Best App Out There But Tiger Apps is GREEDY.I paid for Font Candy + 2+ years ago. I have loved it dearly and have struggled to find another app that comes close when it comes to editing things the way I need them to be edited.
However, Font Candy+ is being phased out (it no longer appears in the App Store, you cannot share it with others, and members of your Apple Family cannot download it either). Instead, they’ve introduced an outrageous WEEKLY subscription which is absolute ludicrous. But that’s also the only way to get rid of their logo in the app. Unless you’re willing to pay $50-$100 a year for an app (you can pay just a little more and get a higher quality editing app for your computer or phone), this app has become useless.
As a longtime customer with multiple of the Easy Tiger Apps, I’m sad to say that I can no longer support them as they move in this direction..AtreichVersion: 5.2.11
Disappointing update.6/22 UPDATE: they still won’t restore your purchases. I paid to remove the watermark years ago. App still crashed and says “nothing to restore” get the Add Text app. It works the way this app used to, NO WATERMARK. You can pay to unlock more fonts and a lot of the free fonts are the same as this app. Very disappointing the direction this app has gone. This was a great app until the new update. The app was fine until I tried to restore my purchases. Ever since then it crashes upon opening. I even deleted it and reinstalled several times. It won’t let me restore purchases and now won’t open. I will change my rating and update if a new update comes out correcting these problems. 5/20 UPDATE: there was an update that fixed a “bug” but my app still crashes. Anyone know of another good app they can suggest?!.Tinadino3677Version: 6.0.3
What happened?!?!!!!!I bought font candy pro probably little less than 2 years ago. But for the past few months it’s been crashing acting stupid a little slow but I dealt with it. Now for the past few weeks it’s kind of become unusable! Which makes me very upset because I absolutely LOVE this app this is my favorite app to use for my photos. So I search the App Store for this app today and only the free one popped up my paid one is gone! So I paid for it’s gone and it’s unusable! The new app that is free for the pro version it wants me to pay $.99 every WEEK! I already paid for the pro version I should not have to pay for anything else again!! If you pay for something once you should not have to pay for it again!! This just frustrates me so much because Like I said I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS APP!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭.Please Visit JW.ORGVersion: 5.2.8
Oof... So this is what it's becomeAnother one bites the dust?
I frequently skip versions on my apps and that makes it all the more jarring and disappointing when good UI goes down the drain. This app used to be so clear and minimal. Text is now an absolute monster to work with.
I'm unsurprised to see this app jump onto the subscription model bandwagon, but VERY surprised by what a bad deal that subscription is. Most similar apps at least offer a non-sub way to remove the watermark if you just want your old, basic experience back with no bells or whistles.
(Other options, like removing the watermark for $0.99, show up in the in-app purchases, yet only the subscription appears to be available within the interface? Huh?)
This was one of my favorite, most used apps and there are a lot of paid options I would have gone for, but this one is just weirdly steep for how little I want from the app.
I'll echo what others have said by saying that this app is "ruined" and that it's pay model is "greedy".
I'm not gonna pay the same price as a streaming service to remove a watermark, but I'll miss you Font Candy!
Bummer..KatenoraVersion: 6.0.4
Declined FunctionalityNot sure what happened with FontCandy since they started charging for it in Dec. The app often crashes & I have to delete it and reinstall. In doing so I loose all of my templates. I have to do this about twice a week!!! And the option to import a font isn't working either...! Maybe the designers thought that adding a sleeker interface would justify the new charges - but it doesn't if we loose functionality.
Aug. 20: the app always crashes when I try to add artwork. I have to remove the app & reinstall to add artwork & in so doing - I loose all my templates.
Functionality has declined since Font Candy started charging! Isn't the opposite supposed to happen?! Looking for another app - post haste!.Mimi J7Version: 6.0.4
I would give this app zero starts if I couldRead through EVERYTHING before you download an app. They make it appear to be free, but if you scroll WAY down to the bottom
It says $1.99/per WEEK, yes you are reading
That correctly $1.99 PER WEEK!! Then when I sent them an email to cancel and stop charging me, they tried to play dumb and say, “we don’t know what you are talking about, we couldn’t charge you like that even if we wanted to.” Really? Because you did and you have been! This is very shady business practices! I want all my money back! I cant stand people who do this kind of stuff to scam people out of money, until the consumer is actually on to them, and then they play games for another few weeks to get more money. That’s a total sham!.Who'scallinginSeattleVersion: 5.2.2
No longer works!The app starts to boot up then crashes every time! I have the latest iOS. What happened?
I paid for the Font Candy+ and after reading other reviews it looks like you’re ripping people off by charging them a $2 month subscription fee!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!! I use TitleFx as another character generator and it is INFINITELY better than your app and I only paid $3 for it and NO SUBSCRIPTION! I’m so sick of greedy (and even corrupt) people gouging people after they have already paid for an app.
HEY PEOPLE! DO NOT BUY THIS PIECE OF CRAP APP that crashes on startup and they want to RIP YOU OFF BY CHARGING A SUBSCRIPTION!!! There are thousands of other apps that don’t charge subscriptions to add text, like TitleFx. DONT BUY ANYTHING FROM THESE GREEDY PEOPLE!!!!.Seed Sower of WomenVersion: 6.0.4
The WORST APP EVER! DO NOT DOWNLOAD!!!Two years ago I downloaded Font Candy+ for $1.99 and it was amazing, after the new IOS update the app became useless. Then I had to download it again because I need it for projects. It was easy to use and didn’t need much tutorial for getting a 🔥 image. Now they say I have to pay $1.99/week? That’s BS. That’s $50 a year! The most popular apps don’t even cost that much. Don’t download this app. Don’t waist your money or storage on this SCAM! They know that they had the best product and they’ve taken advantage of consumers. This business will fall into bankruptcy. I will tell everyone I know not to use this app or any app by Easy Tiger. You’re scamming people! Shame on Apple for allowing this. You’ve just lost a customer..Persona 2.0Version: 5.2.11
It happened to me as well, Cleo!Except it’s not just one app I left behind on my iPhone 6S Plus, there were more than a dozen that I’m no longer able to use on my iPhone XR. Btw, clicking Restore as the developer suggested didn’t help me one bit, not on any of the apps I once loved and used every day. This is more than an aggravation, in my opinion it’s a ripoff. Our fatal error was getting new iPhones. That’s not fair. Life is hard enough without this happening. For some reason app developers have become extremely greedy so I too said goodbye. No longer using this app every day, nor am I recommending it to everyone on Facebook. That was free advertising but we don’t get anything free. We get punished for getting new iPhones..Palomino.GirlVersion: 5.6.1
I used to love this appI have been using Font Candy for years now and purchased the full version for several dollars when I first got it.
The app then kept crashing and freezing so I recently went ahead and deleted and reinstalled this program.
The good news was that it seemed to fix the glitching BUT now its wanting me to pay weekly for what I have already paid for when I originally purchased the app.
I get subscription services when there is a lot of new content constantly but there is only a few new things that I can live without and now so many of the same options I was previously enjoying through my paid app is now available only in the “pro” subscription for $1.99 a week.
This is ridiculous.
If you want to make a subscription service then by all means you have the right to, but do so with new exciting content and don’t take away things from people who have already paid for the app and now tell them its not enough that you paid once, you need to pay weekly to have the same services..ArtsybethyVersion: 5.4.2
Landscape Mode has been removedThis app, once a serious tool for serious iPhone/iPad users, is now for casual iPhone users only. It’s designed for folks who are willing to subscribe and unsubscribe as needed and only edit on their iPhone. That is not a criticism just a fact.
So if you are a casual user, are willing to pay when you need it, are just posting to your social media account - you will be fine. In fact - I recommend this app for those users.
But if you are like me and are a rather serious photo & video editor looking for a good text creation app to serve as an alternative to the (you know who) editing suite this app is no longer for us..Tom911xVersion: 6.2.0
Unethical PracticesSo I’ve used Font Candy for a few years and I’ve used the previous versions. I paid to have the font Candy logo off of my materials. The company has redesigned there format (not a problem) but now they won’t honor my previous purchase. They are suppose to restore purchases and they won’t. That’s bad business practices and I’m actually shock that Apple don’t know about this. If you pay for something it’s yours unless the app or service is no longer in existence. I’m not paying 1.99 a week for a service or item I should be able to restore. Restore purchase button is there for a reason guys. Smh. I will report to Apple!.Carl JaVersion: 6.0.4
Crashing GaloreThis has been my go-to app since I started my blog and I even PURCHASED their other app for more fonts etc. because I loved it so much. I’m not usually one to write reviews on apps or even products but it has gotten to the point of aggravation with this app. I PAID for their app and still it crashes and stops working and I hadn’t had an update in a while. As a paying customer I expect better service, especially since I use this for my blog. If you can save the money, I would unless they’re going to fix the app. I initially checked on the reviews to see if others are having the same problem and they are. It isn’t just me! Please fix this app..StephMartin26Version: 5.4
Use to love this appI don’t know what the developers were thinking. Normally when an app updates the developers will add features and improve others. Not the case with this app. It’s steadily gotten worse over the years and it’s to the point I’m looking for something new. Which is really sad because I loved this app and used it a lot. It’s become average at best like most other photo editing apps and the features that have been taken away just don’t make sense. On top of that the user friendliness it had is now completely gone. So well done developers….you’ve updated yourself into losing a customer..Hilfox84Version: 6.0.4
I love this app but......This is or was my favorite app ive had it for yrs i payed to have the watermark removed and unlock all features it was great and all of a sudden it started crashing so i thought maybe i need to update the app so i go to app store and i cant find it on my purchased app list what i do find is that now its a subscription with a weekly payment! i feel that is very unfair to all of us that had already payed long ago for the pro version.. we should be able to keep it unlocked with all features after all that is what we payed for in the first place!! Y'all have to fix this! 1 star for now until im able to use all my features.Breezita loveVersion: 5.2.5
They Broke the appI have used and paid for font candy for years, this new update not only wiped out years of saved templates but made the app unusable, after too much use and auto saving templates it completely crashed. Won’t open. Won’t work.
Also the ability to maneuver clipart is clunky and a difficult to expand, the previous versions were seamless.
The BIGGEST issue is they took away color options and put in a terrible color bar with no way to match colors as there is no number codes or individual color options.
They made it black, sleek looking and portrait mode, designing in portrait is terrible. I mean terrible, like they broke the easiest most diverse app on IOS. I’ve paid them hundreds to lose everything and customer support told me “oh well”.
Don’t use this app, if you pay for it stop your subscription, they basically threw out 2 years of work I PAID to have saved and gave me a broken app in return..Rgreen1234Version: 6.0.0
New app makes everything difficult.I’ve been a paying customer for over 4 years, using the app to add quick text to my Instagram posts. The new re-design makes simple things like re-sizing, re-positioning, and re-coloring text way more difficult than it should be. All I try to do is access a previous template and move the text somewhere near bottom of the image. This is nearly impossible because the “confirm” button is lower than the actual text, and disappears when you get to the bottom edge. I actively hate using this app now where it used to be a life-saver..Junk BanterVersion: 6.0.3
I am extremely disappointed.Until today, I used this app a minimum of 6 times per week. It was my favorite photo editing app. I updated my phone about a week ago and the app practically stopped working. I searched for an update and couldn’t find one, so I tried to delete it and re-download it. As soon as I re-downloaded it, I tried to restore my purchase of FontCandy+ and I couldn’t. Instead, I was being asked to pay a monthly fee... despite that I’ve already paid for this app... I’m so disappointed and frustrated to know that I’ll have to find a different app for editing. I won’t be using any more products developed by this company..YummyRamuneVersion: 5.2.7
F@$k your subscription.I paid hard earned money for the “ad free version” (font candy +) in 2016, which is no longer receiving updates, no longer appears in the app store, it is basically unusable with today’s updated phones. I expect some sort of support over the long run for the money I paid.
The new version, while it functions beautifully and as expected, requires a weekly subscription fee to remove the ads from the produced images. I say screw the subscription, at least let me pay one time to take the ugly ad stamp away.
I cannot and will not recommend this app to anyone anymore unless something changes..Jcnix55Version: 5.4.3
Poor communication, too expensiveI had the Pro version of this app before it turned into a WEEKLY subscription. Charging .99 per WEEK means you as a casual user, including teenagers and children, are paying over $50 EVERY YEAR to edit your own Instagram photos. Some users are reporting the charge is $1.99 per week... $100 yearly? Really?
I have sent 4 messages so far about the paid subscription I had, which I am now unable to use after upgrading my iOS, and have so far only been told to “renew my subscription.” NO THANK YOU. The free service is useless with 15 second ads and ugly watermarks on my photos.
You were great. Too bad..SeamunkiVersion: 5.2.4
Used to be superior…This used to be my favorite editing app. For years! I used to use it almost every day for my art + promotional stuff. You could easily upload your own custom fonts and/or png files, and apply them to anything. Now every time I open the app it crashes within seconds. And when it doesn’t crash, it won’t even allow me to save custom fonts anymore. All the old features have changed, and not necessarily for the better. Used to be the superior edited app, but now not so much..JoJo1788Version: 6.0.4
They ruined itApp use to be very easy and functional, upgrade is total crap. How do make a interface less intuitive I’ll never know. Moving fonts around is impossible, font shadows are horrible and render font unreadable. Sizing is next to impossible and grabs background instead of font 90% of the time ... color fills are muted, just a total crap upgrade. I’ve been using this app for 4+ years and I’m never coming back to it.. having watermarks now after paying to have them removed before the upgrade ... if I could give it negative stars I would. Do not download.Scoop peaboduVersion: 6.0.0
What happened to the old version?I’ve been using this app to add a signature to my pics for years with no problems until a few days ago when it would crash when I uploaded a photo. When I went to check for an update I can’t even find it in the App Store...what I did find was the SAME exact app with a new color logo. So I downloaded it. It’s exactly the same as the previous one EXCEPT I’ve already paid for the upgrades to the old version. So you expect me to repay for the same services I’ve already paid for because you got new look?!?.SugareesweetsVersion: 5.6.5
Can’t restore. Too many adsFirst off, without an in-app purchase, ALL THE ADS renders this app USELESS!!! If that’s not bad enough, I CANT RESTORE my purchase! I had purchased the unlock all package previously. I rarely write reviews, unless I’m strongly impressed or STRONGLY DISAPPOINTED. I don’t spend money on apps often and it just really ticks me off that I wasted money on this one, even though i have not used it in a long time, and it was on my previous phone, Ive purchased other apps, for my daughter, never had a problem restoring purchases, up to years later on multiple devices..UNHAPPYPHOTOVersion: 5.1.3
NOT FREEDeceptive. App has no useful free features... and tons of adds that try to annoy and wear you down into paying 1.99 or so. NO. Just NOT AT, NO THANKS, NEVER. I use free versions to test apps and if they do this it’s greedy behavior. Doesn’t matter if you have the best features and deals in the world. Being annoyed and badgered to pay 2 dollas is enough to be like... these guys aren’t any good. I don’t trust it.
So disappointed and really really really annoyed. Will take me like an hour to stop being annoyed from so many “pro version requests”... I’d rather just wait and use photoshop. Goodness...
I couldn’t make a line of text that looked semi ok... without it coming up 4 times. One line of text. Not good app.
If someone says they have a free version it should be functional with limited features... this isn’t functional. And they stamp stuff too which is just wayyy too much.
I tried to use this app twice and it was way too irritating asking for money... bad vibe..OctopiezzVersion: 5.4
No response from company - app is not working and I paid for the upgradeHey guys, I tried to reach out via email and your social media before posting my review. Unfortunately there has been no response.
The app does not open. I only see a spinning wheel and have used the same images and fonts for years. I can’t even find FontCandy + on the App Store to leave my review there as that is the app I upgraded/paid for.
I’m desperately hoping that you can respond as I’d like to complete my back to school images and text.
If I ever hear back from you I’ll change my review, but currently I’m telling everyone DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!.Foster artVersion: 5.6.5
Why did the format change - it’s more confusingWhen I found this app years it ago -
it was brilliant mix of mediums that I can combine my art work and interesting fonts to make postcards or cool posters.
Now the images don’t save clearly and the app format is all over the place so you can’t find any of the amazing tools.
Why mess with a great thing?.NikkiPicardVersion: 6.1.1

Not worth itNot the least bit impressed with this app. Will not renew it.MacdonaldgoldVersion: 6.0.4
Since the change, the app no longer worksI loved this app but I can’t even boot it up. I spent years creating assets and developing work but I can’t even access it anymore. If the app worked, I’d give it 5 stars. But as it is now, even one star is too much..Cloudkicker14Version: 6.0.4
Was worth itI felt reservations about the weekly prices but I went with it since I found it to be the most helpful app to help me put my posts together. The new version introduced a lot of confusion and complicated what used to feel simple and straight to give point. Unfortunately cancelled my subscription. :-/.BizzyBojVersion: 6.0.3
Issues with “artwork” buttonAnyone else having issues with the “artwork” button since the latest update? I press it (to add my logo like I’ve done a thousand times before) and the system crashes.
Emailed support and they said it might be on my end (not enough storage, bad internet connection, etc) but that’s not the case. I’m able to do all other editing in the app, just not add artwork. Disappointing as I use this for my small business..Amyj1985Version: 6.0.3

New update lost my templatesSince the app updated I discovered that ALL my templates are gone! I use this app to edit photos for my Etsy shop. I’m very disappointed to have lost my templates. Now I will have to start over from scratch. Not happy!.Cookie222Version: 6.0.1
The old version was so much betterThe app used to be amazing before the new update. The text is now all fuzzy and nothing turns out near as good as it used to. It’s harder to use... bad quality and honestly it’s really sad. I miss the old version.HalfcutskeletonVersion: 6.0.0
WORST APP AFTER UPDATEI have the old version, it was working perfectly until I updated to the latest version. It crashes every time i load it. I lost EVERYTHING, my fonts, templates etc. I hated it very much. I very much regret in updating it. And it’s charging me $2.49 per week for a broken app. WASTE OF MONEY!!!.Kaki413Version: 6.0.0
Terrible usability since the updateThis was my all time favourite app, used it for over a year, even paid the weekly subscription rate and didn’t mind... Since the update it’s now borderline unusable, you can’t do what you used to be able to, the freedom to create has been takin away. Horrendous update. I’ve already canceled my subscription and have begun looking for another app to take its place. If you guys ever offer a downgrade to the old version I’d would gladly resubscribe once again. Otherwise this is goodbye, thanks for ruining one of the best creative apps there ever was....Docendo DiscimusVersion: 6.0.0
Don’t subscribe. Not trust worthy developersI’ve been using this app for years. This used to be a purchase for pro version app. I purchased it. Then they changed their model to subscription and my app doesn’t work anymore. It’s deactivated. Nice. Change your model sure but you need to honour your previous agreements.
I will not be supporting this app. There are lots of alternatives out there..TanyaK61Version: 5.6.5

Uh...What happened to the "font candy +" version of this app? y'all deleted it from the store so you can jump in the bandwagon of scammy weekly subscriptions?.LegendaryMyaVersion: 5.4.3
Terrible appApp is not very user friendly for just adding simple text. Changing font size and type proved difficult. Did not meet my needs at all and deleted after wrestling with the settings for several minutes. Before using the app they were already wanting to agree to a subscription of $2.49 a week with a 1 week free trial..Evil_smileyVersion: 5.4.3

From good to bad.When I first starting using this app, it was great, but several months later it became really slow to load/respond. A couple of months after that, they eliminated one of my favourite templates from which I used to get a beautiful font. Seems like they are offering less value but at a higher cost..NsyrmosVersion: 5.4.2
