UPDATED: App, yes. Subscription, no.

The annual subscription model of making money with apps is a great idea if the apps are truly your regular, “go to” solution for whatever the app does. But as an app that gets launched only on occasion for specific needs, adding this to the ever-growing list of annual subscriptions just isn’t worth it. Thank you, but no. UPDATED: Developer responded and said I could simply watch an advertisement every time I wanted to use a filter instead of subscribing. That shows complete disregard to the value of my time and a complete misunderstanding of the point. Regardless, there are plenty of filter apps, many of which allow me to create and save my own filters. I’ll gladly select one of those options instead.
They’ve jumped the shark

I was using Retrica app loooong ago, way back in its first days. For a long time I had whatever “pro” upgrade there was. I recently started to use my newer phone for photography a lot more, and so I remembered this had been one of my favorite go-to apps for in-camera design. Sadly, however, they’ve decided to jump on board the latest fad of “keep paying forever or lose all.” I’m aware that there are still free filters, but the proper way would be to have me grandfathered in with everything to which I had access to, and while it’s ok to offer me pro subscription for me to decline, it should be able to be locked away and out of sight so I don’t try to use one of those features and then have to deal with the subscription push.
Lots of features, nicely designed!

I already wrote a very long review on this, but the rating thing would not send it, probably too long. Suffice to say, I’m using the free trail and I will buy it. I don’t care about complexion type of selfie filters, I just like the old film and blue/pink/purple filters I think look really cool and this app has plenty of those. Wayyy better designed than most other apps for live filters and selfies. Some other ones don’t even have a flash on both sides, this one does, some take too long to take a photo but (shutter speed)even on normal filters, but Retrica , in a nutshell, passed all my requirements.
