SCRL: Photo Collage Maker Reviews

Been using SCRL for a really long time and the improvements over the years have been exceptional. The ONLY things I would even say SCRL needs is maybe a pride collection, the ability to adjust image dimensions when creating your own blank project and being able to pick up right where you left off in the album when you’re creating something. Currently it brings you the latest most recent folder and would love to have it pick up where I was in the camera roll. But other than that I love SCRL! Makes your posts look next level and I highly recommend!

I have a photo background and I take so many lifestyle photos and I love to use SCRL to collage them together for Instagram. The posts I use with Scroll always get way more likes than static posts. Videos are the future tho so today I bought the premium features so my video wouldn’t have the watermark. As a branding professional I see myself using SCRL even more now that I unlocked more features. Even in the free version you can make a really impactful Carousel post without a watermark. Check me out @ Zari Kenae

Many times a green or other discolored line will be on the bottom or the edge of the carousel photo/video. The + when a photo will snap in place centered needs to also allow for an image to be snapped into place on the top, edges, or corners bc I can sit on SCRL for an hour trying to get it to perfectly fit.

I believe there used to be the option to search the templates but now I can again take forever to find which one I want to use. Needs to be a way to search by the amount of photos and the amount of frames and of course stories, portrait, or square.

As a marketing manager, I’ve seen my fair share of IG tools that promise ease of use and quality content. I don’t think I’ve ever enjoyed using an app as much as this one. It enables me to make beautiful, high fidelity content that looks like I whipped out an Adobe product. The *only* thing that would make this better is a web app so I could have a more seamless transition while scheduling content. But I’m bought in! SCRL is a no-brainer for design-minded folks who want to play with photos.

SCRL has to be one of my favorite finds I have ever discovered! For starters, every other “storyboard-making” app requires in-app purchases that not only couldn’t be customized, but ALSO expected you to buy the stuff without really giving you a chance to explore the real possibilities with SCRL .

SCRL ALLOWS YOU TO DO THAT: to create your OWN STORYBOARD & VISION WITH EASE!

SCRL deserves the recognition and review from me! Will update if I ever get and try the in-app purchases!

SCRL is great, even without making any purchases, which is why I’ll probably be buying all the templates at some point! The blank template format gives me so much to work with without any annoying ads or bugs. I can tell the developers read through reviews of former versions and added a lot of versatility to it, which is nice to see as well. Please keep it up !

When I choose photos from my gallery, the images are sometimes flipped upside down or sideways and I can’t seem to rotate them at all. I tried flipping the photos in my photos app on iPhone, but even after doing that the photos still come upside down. Not sure why this is the case or whether or not I’m using the rotate images feature wrong (not a 2 finger hold and twist?) but the fact that the images come out upside down is a bit irritating.

After I upgraded my phone the maker of SCRL is requiring me to repurchase in less than one year. I have only had SCRL since April of 2020 and now it’s December 2020 and I have to repurchase.

Please help me or buyer beware. I will change this review with an update once the maker restores my full premium purchase by restoring the remainder of the time owed to me. FYI - I did not change Apple ID’s. The system is not recognizing that I already purchased the premium package. Maybe it’s an honest mistake or glitch but I would appreciate receiving the remainder of my subscription please. This is an incredible app/tool, I hope the customer care is incredible too.

As a professional photographer, I absolutely love SCRL and the freedom and creativity it gives me. Especially for Instagram posts to tell a story with multiple images. BUT so many times it will crash while I’m in the middle of creating and adding images, and then if I try to open SCRL and go back, it will continue to crash. So I have to start over completely. Which is a huge bummer because it takes some time to put together. PLEASE consider a desktop version!

I’m a new user, but so far everything seems fine within SCRL . Along with many apps the best of the best options to use cost money, but luckily SCRL allows for a blank option that you can use freely in a basic yet beneficial way. Takes some time to get it right the first couple times but use the blank feature if you’re like me and would rather not put money into every single app you own!

I love SCRL, but one thing I entirely wish would be included in an update would be the ability to snap photos into a square! My shaky hands can never seem to perfectly place the photo in the guides without it being a milimeter off and my ocd doesn’t allow it lol! I love the center lock guides but it would be great to have it on the outer edges! Or maybe even the ability to nudge a photo?

I so wanted to love SCRL, as many of my friends use it and it looks amazing. However, in trying to make and save my first carousel, SCRL has crashed on me while saving close to 30 times. I even purchased premium to see if it would get better, but nope. I’ve restarted my phone, deleted and restarted SCRL , and started over making the carousel countless times. It just seems glitchy. Bummed because the result is so lovely but I don’t have the time for making the same carousel over 20 times. 🥴

It’s so incredibly impossible to try to tilt these image at a certain degree The struggle I was having trying to Tilton image to match it up at the correct angle with another image was so frustrating it forced me to write a review for these people to correct this. Not being able to have the ability to tilt something to a correct point it’s kinda stressful. FIX THIS!!!!! Love SCRL tho

Until I’m able to pay for the full version, the little bit that SCRL comes with as is is so enjoyable to use and the developers really thought it through from the user standpoint. As soon as I can, I’m purchasing the full version to be able to use it to its entirety.

As a photographer SCRL makes sharing photos from my sessions in an easy and beautiful way without having to worry about landscape photos getting cut-off. It’s one continuous scroll for the user and it really allows the photos to tell a story in an incredible way!

I am a prof photog and thought SCRL would help with designing posts for social media. I had a few projects saved, but my app kept closing every time I tried to save as a video. I upgraded to premium, still kept closing. I deleted SCRL and re-downloaded it and now ALL MY CAROUSELS ARE GONE! There isn’t a way for SCRL to have a membership where your stuff is saved?! Really frustrating.

As a professional photographer I wanted to love SCRL. It was working so great, but once you start adding more photos it becomes very slow. I tried so many times to save my work (which took time for me to perfectly create) and every single time it crashed when I tried to save. It would not let me save my work and would change something I had done every time I came back after it crashed and have to go back and fix it. I still cannot export my work. 0/10 for me. Needs a lot of bug fixes.

My go to for making posts with several pictures whether I want to collage, have seamless flow, or create borders of any size. It’s the most free form and easy layout app I’ve used and perfect for cool and innovative post creation right from your phone.

Great app, if it would work. Lots of problems. Especially with video. I spend all this time
Making a video and attempt to save it and it just says rendering rendering and then SCRL shuts down. I have attempted to uninstall and rest all app. Restart my phone. It doesn’t work. I gave feedback and commented on Instagram about the problem and still have yet to hear anything back. I am paying for the monthly premium so I would like for it to work.

I get furious when I try to make layers and I can’t see the other layers! When I try to move them out the way to see the other layers I accidentally swipe them off the screen and I can’t tap on them or find them, so then I have to start over! That’s why I wish it had a redo and undo button! Please fix.

I used to love SCRL when I had a photography business. I could resize my photos so they were all the same size and I didn’t have any white space in my frame. I haven’t used SCRL in a while, but I just tried it for a personal project and was unable to resize my photos at all. No matter what size frame, the first picture is the only one that I could ever get to fully fit in the frame. I even tried the premium free trial, and it wasn’t available. Very disappointed in this change.

I love the idea of SCRL but really disappointed that it only offers the square format. I feel the full frame format is desperately needed for this type of collating, while square only is quite limited.

When will the full frame canvas size be available?

Anyone out there know of a similar app w/ full frame rather than square canvas size?

Would love to see other options for canvas sizes like 3:2, 4:3, 4:5, 5:4. Kind of like VSCO cam with their cropping options.

1:1 sizing is nice but it gets a tad boring if you post all the time. I would even pay if the other sizes were an in-app purchase.

Love SCRL ! Keep up the great work!

I’m a professional photographer, and SCRL always adds a little extra something to my post! Plus, I can show off more of my work and still keep viewers engaged by scrolling 😊

I love the layouts I can easily create on SCRL. However, it is incredibly frustrating when I leave SCRL for a few seconds, to respond to an email for instance, and SCRL restarts. The work is not saved and you’re forced to start over. It would be great if this app provided the option to save drafts or just left your work in place when switching between apps.
