Not free in Japan… too bad.
Not free in the Japanese app store… Too bad.
Thanks for the heads up MDN, I’ll give it a try.
Not free in Australian app store….. Yet?!?!
Got my free copy about 10 days ago. I thought everybody knew. Apple probably bought the App outright. What do I know?
Not free in New Zealand App Store…
Not showing up as free for me at the moment. US App Store showing iPad and iPhone versions as $4.99. Bummer.
$4.99 here in NC @ 2305
Yep 4.99 in Ohio too.
Not free in USA. Just went there and it charges 4.99
I just did a search under free filter, and it showed up, but when I tried to DL it I got the error “being modified, cannot download” … Hum… It must be going back to pay.
Yea it’s $4.99 in Ohio also
Must be rolling out .. I searched for Snapseed, and then filtered by “free” and the $4.99 priced one stayed along with the free apps in which I had no interest.
Then again it stays when one sorts by “paid” as well. Maybe it’s going back to being a paid app. I’d never heard of it, but it appears to be worth every cent of the $4.99!
Not free in Oklahoma as of 2228 hrs
Was free in CA when story first posted 90 minutes or so ago, as I went immediately to app store but I was in gym on 3G and download was too big. Came home to wi-fi and it was $4.99 again. I fear it was either a very limited offer for x number of downloads that MDN pushed to a quick end or it was temporary mistake.
It is not even free, it is still $4.99
I just searched it in the App store to check it out and it listed for $19.99. What’s going on?
I recommend the app stores iPhone app called AppsGonefree. I believe it is a free app. Anyway it alerts you in iOS notifications when it is released which is usually daily and is a great way to pick up some free iPhone or iPad or Universal apps that are free for the day, a few days or longer. It notified me of Snapseed Universal this morning and I got it for free. Just checked AppsGonefree and it said it had expired. Mostly .99 game apps are listed, but occasionally some Productivity and Utility apps are posted.
Anyway, I believe it is a free app. Not sure if it works for app stores of other countries if there is a difference or that matters. But a nice way to be alerted to a few gems of apps that you can get or free.
I recommend checking it out.
I picked it up for free about a month or so ago the first time I read about it, and it’s really pretty nice, even for 5 bucks… It could use some improvements, such as having an image browser function more like the native photo app that comes with the iPad, but for adjusting photos it works really well, and is much faster than I would have expected even on an original iPad 1. I’ll definitely recommend it as a cool app.
According to the dev’s site, they are rolling out a version for OS X via the Mac App Store. I guess $19.99 is their hoped for target price. I’m afraid they won’t see a nickel from me. After watching the video, I already have an app that does similar things.
Looks ok but……… It’s not free. I can do better for $5.00.
Not free in US
Not free in Canada…just checked.
What bullshit
oh, settle down.
I’m glad I downloaded it when I MDN first posted the article. By the looks of it, it went up within an hour
It was free for a full day before MDN posted it.
I purchased the app when it was first released and it is the only photo edit app I now use ( I’ve purchased about 8-10 other edit apps over the years)
The app is worth the $5.
But I do see it o on sale from time to time. Keep an eye out if you can’t afford the $5.
Not FREE in Spain where it costs 15.99€ ! ! ! A far cry from $5.
