We love digital, but it has a tendency to isolate our images from the abuse and accidental alterations that make photos feel real. Digital images are immune to life's story, trapped eternally in a matrix of pixels and immune to the warming effects of time, light, and abuse.
Grungy is a one-button process for re-introducing accidental abuse back into your photos. Don't like the effect? Push the button again until the amount of grunge satisfies your needs.
The process is random and un-repeatable so you never get the same effect twice. But most importantly, the grunge is beautiful and more authentic than anything you can achieve in other apps.
The authenticity of the grunge comes from the care taken in gathering the textures that power this app. The grunge is hand-picked from a collection of artifacts like glue-tinted wallpaper, rusty vintage labels, film remnants, forrest-fire enhanced panels, severely overexposed slides, sanded plexiglass, dry-transfer laser prints, solargraphs, monographs, ticket scraps, antique camera experiments, chemical stained darkroom remnants, thick layers of billboard paper, overused sandpaper, screen-printed collage, and drawers full of objects that clearly contain the marks and scars of their life.
The authenticity of the textures found in Grungy are what will give your images more character than some of the more automated filters out there. Download Grungy today and start un-enhancing your photos today.
NOTE: The maximum resolution that this app is capable of outputting is currently 612x612 pixels.

Doesn’t work
Melissa ?
I just downloaded this app and I hit “new” and it opens my photos up and immediately disappears so I can’t even choose a photo to edit. I deleted it after restarting it three times and it still not working. I definitely do not recommend.
Update needed

This app is in dire need of and update asap. I open the app and hit new and it goes white, can’t even get to my photos to use it. One Star until issue is fixed.
Waste of time

This app is not worth the effort to download (and take up space). Very low resolution. A few grunge overlays that you cycle thru by tapping the screen. Final saved low-res images end up blurry. And the app is 126mb in size! The only good thing about this app is it is free, but sorry, it is just not worth the trouble, considering there are a lot of free grunge apps out there that really perform well.
Nice app just needs improved resolution

I like this app, nice effects that you can adjust the intensity on. Saving resolution however is too low 612 x 612. But from reading the developer's website he is working on correcting it. Looking forward to being able to save images at a higher resolution. Then I think this app will become a permanent addition to be list of much used apps!
Not bad.

Decent choice of effects but it would be nice to choose them manually. Would be nice to have more granular control of the opacity too. Add the ability to layer them, save higher resolution versions, and then lower the application size and we'll have a winner.
Needs a little work

It is a great app it just didn't have that many filters and it saved photos I didn't want
Limited

I love the filters themselves but there's no option to change the size of your photo. It automatically makes your photo square and that often distorts the photo unless it was square to begin with. It needs some work.
