  Sadness

  This looks like it might be fun, but I downloaded it on my iPhone 17 Pro and got an error message each time I tried to use it. Since there is no support, I have not been able to figure out why I got an error message and have since deleted the app. Don’t bother.

  Crashes every time I try to open a photo from camera roll

  It’s a cool effect but I literally can’t apply it to any photo I’ve already taken. Nice to see this app hasn’t had an update in three years. Always read the fine print I guess. 👎👎👎

  A fun option for taking photos.

  I do like this app. It’s easy to learn, and delivers good results with some nice options. The default small depth of field is awesome! I just discovered you can take any shot from your Apple photo library and tintype it. Cool!

  One of my favs

  This is an amazing app and nothing else compares to giving your photos that 1920-1930s look. Please don’t ever remove from the App Store or fail to keep updated!!!! It is so very unique!!!!

  I love it, BUT

  I really love this app and have used it for years, but it hasn’t been updated in over 2 years and will not open raw photos, they just crash the app. And it could always have used some additional features or at least the ability to tweak the images. Lots to love, but it seems like an orphan now.

  Focus

  As another member asked, it would be nice if we could decide where the focus point is.

  Vintage Art at your fingertips

  I love the antique, film plate, TinType look of these. Although you can use them on any subject, portraits look the best.

• ★★★★★None3622

  RAW support needed

  Wish it saved in RAW instead of just jpg.

  Possible update

  I like the app a lot but would very much like to determine where the center point for focus is, instead of it always being dead-center in the frame so that I don’t have to increase the focus diameter to near 0.
