## KaleidaCam Reviews in United States

### ***** "Excellent"
So happy this exists. Phone feels too corporate. Nice to be able to distort reality with it. Makes me feel like I’m looking at something I’m not supposed to be allowed to look at, like I’m about to be smited by Zeus🥲

Great tool.
-- Seymour Paintbrushes, 2026-03-16

### ***-- "Troubling news"
I've been having fun with Kaleidacam for years. I recently upgraded my phone to iOS 26, and there's a problem: when I try to open an image from my photos, about half the time the screen goes black, and I have to dismiss the app and launch it again. I went to the Kaleidacam website and used the Contact link to send them an email message about this. It bounced, 'No such user.'

Now I'm wondering whether there is anyone left at the developer, and whether the app is going to stop working at some point. That would be a shame, as there doesn't seem to be a good alternative.

### ***** "Patterns"
Love this app   So easy and fun to turn photos into beautiful shapes
-- bJxrh, 2025-06-07

### *---- "Too zoomed in"
Like really you could add a simple feature to zoom in or out along with positioning the photo???
-- ferretxx, 2024-11-23

### ***** "Jkln"
Really cool
-- jcvjkkll, 2024-08-10

### ***** "Sooo  good!"
I love this App! 
I do worry about it having some glitch issues because I’ve had them happen a few times - freezing and closing after a few seconds or just closing when I try to snap a photo.  I’ve had to delete the app - wait a week or so and reinstall.  
I’m gonna pay for the extras - not that I need them but to support it and hopefully I get to continue using it! 
I love it- one of the best things I can use on my phone! 
Thank you for creating it! 
You did something really impressive!
-- dj_bryson, 2024-07-25

### ***** "Any way to lock in place before saving?"
It’s the only other necessary feature I can think of and it would be perfect. 🙏

Also, I discovered a two-finger tap/(hold?) function in the default kaleidoscope mode that appears to switch/transition something?. (Not zooming(changing multiplier format) btw. I’m wondering what does it do, if anything?
-- Theodore Grim, 2024-05-26

### ****- "No 6-sided option"
Traditional kaleidoscopes are based on hexagons (6 mirrors in a cylinder).  Why doesn’t this app offer a hexapart option?
-- wekjr, 2024-03-24

### ****- "Epic"
The ability to create unique and memorable visual effects. The endless combinations that can be done with this app is astonishing. I've always enjoyed fractal and fractal apps. And using this app has allowed me to take a more hands on approach to the ever expanding world of the fractal experience. with trademark blend of lasers and smoke, I have been able to use KaleidaCam for a visual enhancement that I had only before dreamt possible. 
I would give this app a perfect five star. Unfortunately, you're not able to use video mode which has forced me to use screen recording for my videos. I also think the app could offer more but I'm not really sure what I just feel like it's a treasure trove waiting to be discovered.  
Big shout out to the team who created the app it's an awesome idea. quite honestly I spend a lot of time using it because the finished product is one of the kind.
-- Seabass0217, 2024-02-28

### ***** "Great app"
I love using this with my own artwork!
