Works good for generally making memes and captions on photos. It’s a good editor but could be better. Two pet peeves I have about this app are: cropping photos, the top is directly in the place of Apple’s irritating pull down menu, you have to crop the bottom of a photo and move the crop space down, and then place the top of crop lines on the photo where you want them. It’s just an irritating extra step that does not need to be. It’s impossible to do the top without pulling down this iOS menu. And text alignment, this could be fixed if you could move the top crop edges without actually touching the dots. And two; This app is absolutely impossible to get text to align horizontally again if you touch or resize it. You need a feature that snaps text to horizontal alignment when its moved close to horizontal. Other editor apps have this feature. But the ease of BeFunky makes it my go-to app if I need to make a caption on a picture in a real quick in the middle of a conversation. It works well, but I think these two things could help it be a lot better.

Either it doesn’t fit my iPad well or I am not able to figure out how to get it to go into the landscape mode rather than staying in the vertical mode. Annoying. And I supposedly upgraded to the BeFunky Pro but now am learning that those features don’t work on the iPad. And when I switched to my laptop their was a monthly fee, not a one time fee. I felt led on. I was looking for the cartoonization feature, which the pro led me to believe was available on the iPad, though customer service says it isn’t. Again, not something I made up. Hmmm. Still trying it out. The book is still out.

I’m a professional photographer, so even when it comes to using my phone for taking pictures as opposed to my DSLR, I still like an editor that packs a punch and allows me to stick to my aesthetic. I have numerous apps for the “heavy lifting” so to speak, and use Adobe for the majority of that. But I also enjoy having editors that allow me to take pictures less seriously, to make silly things for friends and family, and to just play. Most of my apps that I have for this only have a couple main features. Like ones that pretty much just do collages, or just allow you to play with makeup. While I actually enjoyed this app enough to buy the pro edition for extra options, there’s MORE than enough here to do all kinds of entertaining and cool things. I like that it’s current trend wise, from the stickers to the frames and effects. And each have the ability for you to customize to really get your creative thoughts from mind to screen. The stickers are fun, and you can flip them any which way and choose the order in which they’re layered. To sum it up, this app takes no photographic skills, or technical knowledge to be able to open it up, choose a picture from your camera roll, and just play. The only thing missing is the marker and pens you don’t get on your hands, or the glue that somehow has managed to get everything around you sticky!
