Low effort and ridiculous amount of ads ruin an potentially good app – Pro Filters for Snapchat Review

I have Snapchat already, but have a younger sibling who’s not allowed to have social media yet. However, he really likes the filters, taking hundreds of pictures with the silly dog ears and heart faces. I downloaded the app in hopes that he would be able to enjoy the filters without having a Snapchat account. The first thing I noticed when I opened the app was the ads. Not just a few second apps that pop up to advertise free games and programs, but intrusive apps that are on assorted web pages outside the app. I didn’t think this was much of a problem, but the ads showed up every 5 seconds, making me reluctant about the quality of the app without even trying the filters yet. So, exiting ad after ad, I tried the 5 filters available (it was a disappointment that only 5 filters were available, I was expecting at least a few). Some of them were cool and worked fine, such as the heart eyes and fire filters. There was even a drawing and text feature included, which was a nice surprise I was not expecting. Overall, though, I think this app deserves its two star rating. Please don’t hate on the developers, they tried, I just wish more effort and a higher budget was put into the app to make it the best it possibly could be. The app could use some improvements though. If the app receives any updates (which I doubt it will, given that there is no updates besides a minor bug fix over a year ago), I will update my review. Thanks for reading!
