Comments on Overlay for Android

★★★★★ Wan Farah Wan Zainuddin · Jun 19, 2020
Easy to use, even for someone who is very awkward with phones n apps like me. Favorite part of the app are the stickers, the available ones in-app are very cute while the locked ones can be accessed for 1 day through watching ads.
★★★★☆ David Nicol · Apr 2, 2021
Does what I need it to do to post on Instagram. Unfortunately ?not supported/developed anymore?
★★★★★ rin N · Sep 9, 2021
Really great and very helpful. For putring an image over the photo I use the blend tool, and then I pick the screen filter. If you do it with another method lmk :)
★☆☆☆☆ Butter Battles · May 4, 2020
I used to have loads of fun with this app. Not anymore. Whenever I go to blend a picture, the screen goes blank. Absolute waste of time.
★☆☆☆☆ Marie Valdez · Dec 30, 2022
U let the 3rd party app use apps to overlay the original app that gets downloaded. I'm disgusted in google. They are dirty And let 3rd party apps use our life for fun or their benefit. How sad!!!!
★☆☆☆☆ Jae Hurtt · Jul 12, 2023
So I pay for the app. And it doesn't even work. Can not access the edit screen. Smh just take the app out of the store. You all are really wrong for that, trashy energy
★☆☆☆☆ flower child · May 10, 2020
Pretty easy to use, but the majority of the collections are locked unless you pay for it, and using the blend feature kicks you out of the app. Definitely recommend using a different app.
★☆☆☆☆ Carl Truva · Oct 25, 2020
Advertisements that you can't remove to finish your overlay because you can't x it out to finish your overlay
