I paid for the app once to eliminate the ads and just recently discovered I have to pay again. I guess I’ll be using a different app. How many times do I have to pay to get what I already paid for?Edit: I must update my review for accuracy. I paid for the “Pro” version when that option was offered. This allowed access to the full library of filters. Recently, Retrica has updated the app to require a subscription to use the app with no ads. Although this practice seems to be a permissible practice for a company like this, and I understand the desire to make money, I believe it does a disservice to established customers who have been loyally using this product for years. By introducing ads to an ad free product I’ve already purchased, you’ve essentially said you no longer appreciate my years of being your customer. For this reason, I will discontinue to use Retrica and move on to a more ethically minded photo app company.

Disgusted: I have used Retrica for over 6 years
RetricaSpectrica
I have been using Retrica for over 6 years. Back when it first came out I paid for add free and for “all” of the filters. Since then many changes have happened. More filters, different formats. But now I have adds that inable me to take pictures. When I go to take a picture, a 6 second add pops up and when it’s done then it takes the picture. 6 seconds too late. This happens with every picture I take. For having actually paid money for multiple upgrades in the past with this app and now I miss old filters and am blasted with horrible adds that prohibit me from even using the app, I am actually disgusted with this app. It has been dear to me for 6 years and now I just feel really disappointed. Shame on you for taking money and then treating a paying customer this way.

Hi,Thank you for reaching out to us. You might have purchased a 'Retrica Pro', a paid application we built more than 6 years ago, which you can get from your purchases on the App Store, whereas 'Retrica' is an application you can enjoy for free that includes an in-app purchasing feature. For an ad-free experience on the Retrica app, you can purchase a Retrica Premium subscription. With Retrica Premium, you will get access to the latest and advanced filters and colors. Best Regards,Retrica

I have had the RetricaPro app since 2014, I believe. This app has been the best app, but due to my current IOS update, the previous app no longer works. So I had to download this one, and while it is somewhat similar, it’ll never be the same. My only complaint is that on the original RetricaPro app, I could adjust the percentage of how much of the filter I wanted on there. Please add this feature. Some of the filters are incredibly too noticeable and I would like a more natural effect. Thanks.Update: Thank you for your timely response. This app is just like the original now. I can’t wait to continue to use and support Retrica.

Hi, thank you for using the Retrica app. You can adjust the intensity of the filter by tapping the filter again, a slider should appear at the bottom of the screen. If you encounter any issues with the app, please write to us at contact@retrica.co and we'd be more than happy to assist you.
