Happy New Year 2024 -- Sherap6, 2023-12-30 ### ***** "App review" This app is quite remarkable. It allows a lot of latitude while editing. The effects one can apply are numerous while allowing additional adjustments. It is very easy to use as are all programs related to this company’s apps. I have several; I use them for different types of photos. More importantly I have never had an issue with this app. -- i have mo nickname, 2023-03-31 ### *---- "Doesn’t seem to work at all." When I launch it I see a gray screen. Never even tried to access my camera. I can access my photos, but I was hoping to take pictures. I’m using an iPhone 13 Pro Max with iOS 15.5. -- Cgephart, 2022-07-09 ### ***** "Great app" This is a fantastic app. I started making dramatic photos and I am in love with the app . Maybe in the future the developers can add more filters but over all I am impressed. Keep up the good work guys. -- Heemie1, 2020-05-06 ### **--- "Needs improvement and spotlight has got to go" I gave this app two stars even though I like it. The Spotlight makes it a pain in the rear to use. It should be optional and should not reset itself when you change to a different filter. That is the main reason I do not use the app. I also wish that it had a slider to change the strength of the filter. Adding an adjustable dodge and burn tool and a contrast tool (no, not the sliding bar the app has), and a saturation tool to fine tone the highlights and shadows would be great. I have also noticed that when you change the strength of the red, blue, or green filter, the other two move. It should not be that. They should be completely independent from each other. Changing one should not move the other two filters. -- Yaslicious, 2020-02-12 ### ***-- "Forces you to use spotlight" It’s a good app except it forces the spotlight effect every single time and you have to manually turn it off, gets annoying really fast. Please add an option to turn off the spotlight effect permanently. Other than that, it does have some decent effects. -- dreamfx, 2019-10-01 ### *---- "No Full Resolution Support" If you don’t mind thumbnail quality the app is fine. Look else where if you need full resolution support. -- KilJoy, 2019-04-10 ### *---- "No Longer Works" Used to be a great app. Just reinstalled it and it does nothing. Won’t take a photo. Won’t edit an existing photo. Just a functionless gray screen and functionless buttons. Sad.., -- Jing_Ke_9867, 2019-03-08 ### **--- "Crashing!!" Love the app, but it frequently crashes when trying to load another photo after having just edited and saved a previous one. -- aiming high, 2019-03-06 ### *---- "Universal" I love buying the same app twice. -- @Sigil, 2019-02-19 [View all Dramatic Black & White reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://app.apptail.io/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Dramatic Black & White Store Rankings | Chart | Country | Category | Rank | |-------|---------|----------|------| | Top Paid | Greece | Photo Video | #42 | | Top Paid | Sweden | Photo Video | #47 | | Top Paid | Denmark | Photo Video | #52 | | Top Paid | Portugal | Photo Video | #68 | | Top Paid | Italy | Photo Video | #81 | | Top Paid | Czechia | Photo Video | #97 | | Top Paid | Spain | Photo Video | #99 | | Top Paid | Finland | Photo Video | #102 | | Top Paid | Mexico | Photo Video | #109 | | Top Paid | Austria | Photo Video | #113 | | Top Paid | Indonesia | Photo Video | #114 | | Top Paid | Switzerland | Photo Video | #118 | | Top Paid | Netherlands | Photo Video | #123 | | Top Paid | Ireland | Photo Video | #124 | | Top Paid | Kuwait | Photo Video | #130 | | Top Paid | Nigeria | Photo Video | #134 | | Top Paid | Norway | Photo Video | #135 | | Top Paid | Poland | Photo Video | #136 | | Top Paid | Türkiye | Photo Video | #140 | | Top Paid | Colombia | Photo Video | #141 | | Top Paid | Hungary | Photo Video | #142 | | Top Paid | Chile | Photo Video | #143 | | Top Paid | Lebanon | Photo Video | #144 | | Top Paid | Dominican Republic | Photo Video | #145 | | Top Paid | Brazil | Photo Video | #148 | | Top Paid | United States | Photo Video | #149 | | Top Paid | France | Photo Video | #149 | | Top Paid | Israel | Photo Video | #150 | | Top Paid | Belgium | Photo Video | #150 | | Top Paid | Peru | Photo Video | #172 | | Top Paid | South Africa | Photo Video | #178 | | Top Paid | Singapore | Photo Video | #182 | | Top Paid | Philippines | Photo Video | #194 | | Top Paid | Germany | Photo Video | #194 | | Top Paid | Argentina | Photo Video | #195 | | Top Paid | Romania | Photo Video | #195 | | Top Paid | New Zealand | Photo Video | #197 | | Top Paid | Canada | Photo Video | #201 | | Top Paid | Russia | Photo Video | #207 | | Top Paid | India | Photo Video | #210 | | Top Paid | Hong Kong SAR China | Photo Video | #211 | | Top Paid | Australia | Photo Video | #211 | | Top Paid | Azerbaijan | Photo Video | #214 | | Top Paid | Malaysia | Photo Video | #219 | | Top Paid | Thailand | Photo Video | #220 | | Top Paid | United Kingdom | Photo Video | #224 | | Top Paid | Ecuador | Photo Video | #226 | | Top Paid | Pakistan | Photo Video | #229 | | Top Paid | Belarus | Photo Video | #245 | ## Dramatic Black & White Discovered Keywords -
