Bought Polarr for Mac as I never updated from Lightroom 3 before Adobe switched to the cloud (also, I'm an app geek). The iOS license was really just icing, though it turns out I use the mobile version infinitely more. The selection of filters is enormous and the features are comprehensive. I'm not a huge filter user and a decent proportion of those included lean toward the faded/dark/cross-processed look of simulated antique film, though you can save your own adjustments for later use and batch editing. Make sure to apply filters before exposure and tone adjustments, as they override selected settings; it would be nice if filters could be stacked for combined effect. The heal and clone features aren't as intelligent as some I've used and can be a bit clumsy to manipulate on phone screens, as the selection areas are quite large by default. The face enhancing settings are useful for portraits, though an auto setting for face tone/texture alone would be helpful for those who don't want to completely reshape their face and maintain some subtlety. These are relatively minor quibbles and easily manageable. The greatest weaknesses to Polarr are its lack of support for raw formats (mobile only) and its tendency to lag as the adjustment count reaches close to 300 (edit history makes it incredibly easy to check questionable choices, though); the latter will clearly depend on your phone. — ANYHOW, if you aren't a fan of subscriptions, I'd highly recommend purchasing a desktop/mobile license prior to the update. The grace period isn't permanent, but significantly long enough to outlast a number of updates and more than a few phones.
