I want the old version back!
A fan
Fan of the latest update. Much improved.
Waterlogue 2.0
I've been using Waterlogue for years to making amazing watercolors from my photos. Unfortunately, the latest version has gone a bit too far in making things too crisp and sharp and the watercolor effect I used to get is no longer possible. Yes, I've tried adjusting all sorts of options and I don't get near the results I used to get. I'm sure folks that like the sharpness in their photos will be happy with this new version
This is a great concept
Like the effects but they lack nuance. I’d like it to make smaller changes and keep details more clear.
So easy
Love using this tool. It makes creating watercolor portraits so easy.
Disappointed
This App did a horrible job of simulating painting paintings. I’m frustrated that I paid for this app. When all I had to do is go to Google Photos. And get a superior app.
Fun with Waterlogue App
Some photos are really enjoyable to Waterlogue and others just don’t Work well with the app It is really fun to explore the possibilities.
Very Low Resolution
Not serious software at all. Gimmicky at this small resolution. Don't waste your money.
Mandy
Awful sorry I bought it not enough control ,messy looking
Buy. This. App.
I have been a fan of this application for YEARS. It is a labor of love, it has been supported and updated - it has grown and developed. This is exactly the application that you want to own.
Terrible, don’t recommend
I can’t understand the good reviews. If you want even basic quality that resembles a watercolour with even basic editing eg eraser, brightness, colours, this app doesn’t do it. Save yourself the money. I wish I never bought this. Zero stars.
Love it, but want the sketch!
I have lived this app but am not sure why they can’t ISOLATE THE SKETCH SCREEN so I can print my photo’s sketch and use some of the Waterlogue ideas. I want to paint my own watercolors of my photos. It should be easy to just isolate and print what your app already produces!
Didn’t meet expectations
Sorry that I paid that much money for this app. Had read that it was a great app but was disappointed in the results. Found another app for free that I enjoy much more.
Lower quality - Used to be good
It used to be better and have more functionality to control how much detail your watercolour has and you could see more of the finer features.
Breathtaking
If you love watercolor, this app will take your breath away. It’s one of the most enjoyable apps on my device.
BAD
So bad that I’m shocked, turned my picture into modern art with zero detail looked like a toddler did it waste of time and money
Is there a way to go back to previous version?
I liked it better before the last update. I use it to simplify a photograph to help me in my art, to paint the picture. It’s not much use to me if the “rendering “ looks just like the original photograph
Needs more options
Great basic app. Not worth the higher price tag. Would be great if you could customise it more. The interface isn't really user friendly.
Okay, by largely underwhelming
Was looking for an app that would convert some travel photos into watercolour-style art for canvas printing. This app does a reasonable job, but doesn't really deliver anything spectacular.
Photo fun
I have loved Waterlogue for years. It can save many photos that don’t quite achieve their potential as a photo but edited as a “watercolor” often produces a magical transformation.
This not it.
Was anticipating some detail to landscapes but it failed horrendously. Blows out any detail and you can not tell much of what’s going on in the pictures. That was a waist of money.
years usage
wish it was a pencil sketch option
Been loving this app however the camera option no longer works
Worked great till now however any photos I take using the Waterlogue camera option are not accessible ~not saved in photos nor do they show up when I use the "use photo " option on the app. Please remedy this and I will update my review.Thanks

Incroyable!
Beautiful app but…
I love the organic way that it animates your picture from a blank canvas to a fully fleshed out painting. My only gripe is, that although you can change the canvas size to larger to get more detail, if that could be extended further just to get more detail in the image, that would make this app brilliant. Also the output image size is rather tiny, it’s half the dimensions of what the original photos are taken in using the iPhone camera. This needs to be fixed!!!
Good but could be great
It’s very useful as a watercolour tool. It can help you visualise shadows, highlights, shapes and accents. But, I am always wishing it could be just a little better. The app on the Mac seems to be more powerful but I work solely from my iPad. I would gladly pay more for a more powerful version for iPad. More detailed renderings (from 12 Jumbo to perhaps an 18 or 20) especially for the Natural, Bold and Technical filters and larger output sizes.
Needs a serious update
It is a good app that could be made so much better. Only one from the 10 or so options works well enough for me (vivid) and I have to choose the largest size to get reasonable detail. Please upgrade it ASAP.
Outstanding
I love Waterlogue! It is so simple to create anything you can think of! I tinker with every option just to see the amazing differences.
App hangs
The app is hanging frequently when I am switching between different effects.
Love it - but waiting for enhancements
Great app, easy to use - but not cheap, and waiting for promised enhancements
Still gorgeous after 13 years!
I’ve been using this app since 2013 and it’s only gotten better. SO appreciative and thankful that it has NOT gone down the AI/GenAI/LLM/slop machine garbage drain! That Waterlogue continues to be NOT “AI” is a strong selling point and makes me proud to continue to recommend this app 🩷
Disappointed
Disappointed with this app. I can get a better result from Microsoft Word on my PC.
Love it
Love this app and the updated features- no in app purchases makes it a deal
A waste of $3 and my life
Bruhhhhhhh. Sweet fake reviews too!
Luminous
When I transfer my Landscape photos into these watercolor options I can play with them in a new and vibrant way that inspires me to use them in my art. It’s easy and intuitive. And they only program that does so much for free. I love it.
