User Reviews for Layout from Instagram

So close . . . and yet so very FAR!

Having the Layout app was having the slayout slap, towering in comparison against similar collage apps—since 2015 for me! I finally ditched my iPhone 6 for a 12 pro max (not just to get a new phone but because my 6 did not play well with others [so many new technologies, like my watch & home pod)]. Now—maybe because my new phone’s so slick? 🤔—Layout crashes repeatedly and to the point where I have yet completed one collage. I can choose photos and a configuration; sometimes, I get as far as sizing and placing pics where I want. Then, CRASH! Oh the HUMANITY!! Layout, clean up your act and feel your self worth! You are better than this and you are widely loved by loyal users! Make like a sailor and get your ship together before we make like shepherds and get the flock outta here!

Such a shame

I have loved and used this app since it came out. There’s no other app like it. Unfortunately as everyone else keeps saying, after iOS 15, this app no longer works. I can’t even get it to launch. I have tried reinstalling, restarting my phone, etc. It’s clear this app is no longer compatible with iOS, and unfortunately the fact that the last update was 3 years ago shows that Facebook/Instagram doesn’t care. User complaints have never meant anything to this company, because there are no viable alternatives to their platforms. They know that, complain though they might, users have no where else to go. And so we will continue to use Facebook and Instagram, handing over more and more of our personal data in exchange for less and less user-friendly features. Ah well. I’ll miss layout. We had a good run.

Faulty app?

I loved this app, and I’ve had it forever. I had it on my iphone xs and now my iphone 12 mini BUT for as long as ive had it, my instagram kept crashing, overheating my phone, and draining my battery. As well as i kept getting hacked or having random logins from other countries (mainly russia). I thought the problem would resolve once i bought a new phone, but it followed me. I couldn’t be on the instagram app for longer than 30 seconds before it crashed. Then today, i was using this layout app to edit something and the layout app CRASHED. it did it several times before it occurred to me that this is the problem. So I deleted this app, deleted my instagram app, restarted my phone and then re-downloaded instagram (but not this layout app) and now the problem is 100% gone. No more overheating, no more battery drains, no more crashing instagram. Im literally shocked that it took me years to figure this out. Disappointed because the app did what i needed it to, but in the process was disrupting my instagram app.

Needs a fix to let you start over

Let me just say that I have used this all the time, and would give it 5 stars, until an update that broke something. So one of the more recent updates, not sure which one, made it so that you can’t get back to the starting screen. You have to close the app.It added extra steps into selecting photos and making your layout. And I’m not really sure why? From a user experience perspective, it makes zero sense— Because not only does it add the extra steps, but there’s no way to clear the selection and start over. You can’t access your photo roll, if you click on recents it only has the things you recently selected. Which I find to be completely unuseful.It’s the GUI equivalent of a keyboard trap. I was hoping that maybe the logo or something else would let me clear the selection and access my photo roll once more. But there doesn’t appear to be any way to do this. I am super bummed that I have to close the app every time just to get a pop-up to ask if I want to clear my selection and use different photos. If something was done to address this, I would totally give this 6 stars! I use this app all the time and I’m really disappointed that the functionality has been crippled in this way.(The reason I’m not sure which update caused this change is because I hadn’t installed any of the updates for a while. But had to recently when I upgraded my phone.)

Constant crashing (as EVERY recent review says)

This app WAS great… it was my go-to for combining photos into collages or comparisons… until I updated my iPhone, and now it crashes after a few seconds (and also glitches such that you can’t scroll through certain folders without it scrolling backwards to the top again… and then it proceeds to crash very soon after that, of course, regardless of whether or not the scrolling glitch occurs).This is obviously a pretty ubiquitous issue for this app on iPhone now. It’s time for an update, developers!! Apparently an update for this app hasn’t been issued in 4+ years… well, it’s time to do it now! I’ll write a positive review instead if you could only get it back to working again how it was. It’s simply no longer compatible with iOS. Please give some much-needed attention to this old app you made… or direct users to a new one to replace it, with the same great collage editing options.

Unassuming, Humble, Effective, Reliable

The Layout app has always been there for you. It’s the friend you’ve always had, but never fully appreciated. Always been free — no motive but to assist you in your mobile collaging endeavors, be they in Instagram or others. From the moment it was born its was a separated concern in spirit from general commercial interests. The humble Layout app merely wishes you the best in your daily rituals. Being a loss leader, It hopes you will use it for Instagram but is equally happy just to juxtapose any of your captures for any ultimately square format. Layout app, you are a shining star in the field of ad-laden, subscription poisoned money grabs. Thank you for being you.

This app is NO cap!

So I saw this app when I was looking for an app to make a photo collage of photos of my dog. Now remember there is thousands of “photo collage@ apps out there that you could use. So I was searching in the App Store and I clicked the first one I saw… “not this app” and the first app said it was a great FREE photo collage app. I downloaded it and made my photo collage and clicked Done and guess what happened… it popped up the screen that said “To save your photo collage you must pay for a subscription”. And I am not doing that just for one photo collage. Then I deleted it and downloaded this app and I will be keeping it on my IPhone because this app lets you save your photo collage for FREE!! - Thanks to the creater(s) for making an app that you don’t have to spend money on.

Bug Issues with Layout App on IOS 15

I downloaded the not too long after getting Instagram some years ago. It’s a great basic app and I use it a lot. I especially like how easy it to resize the picture boarders something you can’t due in other similar apps I’ve tried in the past. Most recently had to upgrade my iPhone 6s operating system to IOS 15 and the problems started. After downloading IOS 15 I went to use the Layout as usual the app started up and then stayed in the boot up position with app logo for 60 seconds them crashes. I tried restarting my iPhone etc. nothing seams to work. Pleas consider looking in to the situation and fix bugs.

Always come back 2 LAYOUT

I downloaded Layout very soon after installing INSTAGRAM. I’ve always been satisfied, too! The only addition I’d like is the ability to choose a border clr: Black,White, & Grey would be great! I’ve added approx 3 other collage makers over the last few yrs., & while I might use them a time or two, I always delete them in favor of Layout. I might find a different look, but the APPS lack simplicity, & real choices. They show tons of avail. layouts or backgrounds, but it’s quickly made obvious that u must PURCHASE a yearly sub. to use the app. They should advertise “ForeverFree Trial” bc that’s all you get to do. Nope! Layout is the only collage maker I can’t live without. It’s EZ, it’s full of options, and I’ve never had issues w/glitches! Thanks Layout!

iPhone 8 user

I have more than 3 yrs using this amazing app for my pics but as of a couple of months ago it no longer works. It just keeps loading & then shuts down. I have deleted it several times including right now & reinstalled but the issue still persist on my iPhone 8. Even tho I’m having this issue I still have it a 5 star rating because I love this app so much & never had any issues with until couple months ago as of last year. It’s so easy to use & most of all free 100%. Please fix it or let me know what I should do like call up Apple idk. I love to continue using this amazing app. I tried reporting the issue by tapping the report issue link, but there’s no way I can report this specific issue on the site. So only thing left for me to do was write here in the review section. Hope it gets fixed soon 🙏🏻
