Blur Photo Editor

Update: January 6th 2023 - Please add a circular and rectangular preset option for the blur tool. So we can easily just blur out a rectangular or circular area. 😊 If not already included in the video blur app, please add there too! Fantastic app by the way! I purchased it, love the app, happy to support you guys! I’ll update my rating once this is implemented! Promise! Cheers! ============== Devs, I love your app, I paid for it. Just need one thing. To make blurring a little bit easier and more accurate, please implement an “offset” for the brush so we can place our finger somewhere near where we need the blur, and see where we’re blurring. Right now, if we don’t place our finger precisely, it results in a mistake, often missing the actual object. An offset would greatly help.

This really is an excellent app, the problem I have with it is that the pricing seems to have completely changed. Before, you could at least use the basic blur function for free, but you had to buy a subscription to use any of the more advanced tools. That was fine given how little I used the toll. (I basically just used it to blur out personal information in screenshots.) Now, I just discovered that you can’t do ANYTHING without a subscription, and the subscription is $7.99 per WEEK! That’s over $400 per year for an app I typically only use a couple times a month. (That’s TWICE the price of the full Adobe Photoshop app by the way!) That’s RIDICULOUS! I totally understand developers needing to make money from the app, but that truly is an exorbitant price, particularly for a casual user. I’m disappointed because this really was the best of the various blur apps I’ve tried, but I just can’t justify paying that price.

I am of the opinion that a good app is with paying for. I consider the added functionality that a good app brings to a smart phone as something that is well worth buying. I have bought many apps even though their free version did what I needed. Why? Because I believe if you put your time and effort into developing an app that helps me, I should help you back. I had the free copy of this app ( previous version ) and I used it a few times and I liked it. I updated to this newest version and it is not allowing me to save my work. Fine. I will pay for it. $2 perhaps? $5 perhaps to buy it?? Nooooo, $50 PER YEAR subscription?? Are you serious??? This is where the developer doesn’t realize that for every 1 paid subscription, he/she could have 100s of purchases if it were priced at say $2-$5 to purchase. Deleting this app now. Will not come back just based on principle. Developer, Good luck with your future endeavors.
