Description

Poetics is a visual poetry app that combines moveable text with photographic imagery.

Take a picture and write anything you feel, whether a poem, one word or a caption. Or start with text and add an image later.

At the touch of a finger, words playfully collide and interact, giving a physical feeling and connection as you scale, rotate, lift and drop them.

Poetics is flexible and saves your work as you create, ready to be shared anytime on Instagram, Facebook, SMS, Tumblr and more.

Weak

For skimmers: don't buy. You can only type one word at a time. Instagram would probably make for a better poetry app.

No tools. No syllable count, no rhyme tool, no room, no lines, no community, zilch-o.

I wish I could get me money back, mateys.

2016-09-06

Fun app

I use this to capture a sentimental mood in my pictures and use as my lock screen. Some might find one block font limiting but I actually find that it makes the app more useful. Instead of fussing around with typeset, I'm looking for precision in word choice.

2016-04-14

Surprise feature

I know that it's not technically what this app is for, but I use it to create iPhone wallpapers with my photos. I crop them and after editing the photos with the app I take a screenshot of it when the photo covers the whole phone. The results are good. It's a decent photo editor and you can move the text around and add it. I'm not much of a text person but this app has a surprising purpose for me.

2016-04-04

Want my money back

This is such a stupid app, doesn't solve any purpose. You can only type 11 words and then you have to type them again and again and then arrange them all in one sequence and align them. Such a headache. Can't see how this works for posting on social media. Apps are meant to help make it easy for you and not make ur work hard. Stay away from it unless u have a dyslexic child and want to teach him how to arrange words and sentences in order.

2016-03-31

Best new app

Love this app. So much fun especially because you can send $.99 postcards and they look awesome.

2016-01-13

Pretty cool

This app is like post secret meets poetry meets photography- taken to the next level. I think it's super cool and a unique way to create things for, let's say, a poetic Instagram account. A+++

2016-01-09

Great except one flaw

I'm really liking Phoetics. To be fair, it's really short on features and options. It uses one font and background color for the text. But you can resize the text and move it and reorient it. So what it does it does well. What I HATE is that to add the "Phoetics" you have to crop it to ONE RATIO of 16x9 and ruin whatever you had it cropped to before, like a square! Makes it very hard for Instagramor anything else.

Developers: please just make one change! Remove this crop! Don't force us to crop, just let us add it to the image in whatever shape we want! Thank you.

2016-01-06

👍🏻 THUMBS UP 👍🏻

Quality user interface and useful app for my iPhone photo toolbox. Recommended for anyone who is searching for a clean minimalist block-text add-on capability for their images. Easily a five star rating.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

2016-01-06

Simple And Lovely

Find the right image and let the words flow. Great little App for applying a feeling or lyrical thought to a photo. This is not about how many fonts this app has, it's about pure thought and splashing it onto a photo, and letting it naturally fall into the pix. Think of refrigerator magnets for your photos. You can position words or sentences in any direction 360 degrees, and also resize them easily. This app has reinvented the photo caption, and no two captions are ever the same! Thumbs up!

2015-09-30

Would like to love it but..

It crashes every time I tap the text button. I'm on an iPhone 6+

2015-09-28

Fun play time for adults!

A very fun app. Wish I could change font types, otherwise all around fun time for playing around with graphics and words.

2015-07-11

Keep it up

Great concept!

2015-05-30

Awesome except for crash bf sending postcard

I love this app as an outlet for creativity but it always crashes right before I'm about to send a postcard and it's so frustrating

2015-05-19

Lovely, easy to use

Nice results, very straight forward.

2015-05-09

Amazing App

Idk why this app is not popular. it's simple to use, it enables me to create great pics. it still needs other editing features but i like it :)

2015-05-02

Good app

Great app thank u😍

2015-03-25

Easy to use

Just started using this app and have enjoyed creating personalized photos. Not hard to navigate. Was able to create something I was happy with in the first few minutes of use. Can't wait to explore all the features.

2015-02-26

Words and Pictures

Although there are other apps that allow you to add text to photos, with this app you feel like your cutting up words typed on paper and making a visual art collage reminiscent of the early cubist painters. I had some crashing issues after I first downloaded the app on my 6 plus but an uninstall and reinstall seemed to have fixed that issue. Kudos to the devs for responding to my support question so quickly (a little over an hour).I think this is an app for some serious artistic creations or for some not so serious fun. Thanks.

2015-02-19

Looks really awesome until it crashes :(

Crashes constantly on my iphone 4. Lets me edit and apply effects and when done it shows the results then crashes losing all edits :(

Looks very interesting, only wished it worked.

2015-02-18

Loving this app

Just downloaded this app and love it! Very clever and a lot of fun to send more personalized love notes to my wife!

2015-02-17

Great App

This is app is really artsy and easy to use. I'm writing this after using it once. It was just that simple to use.

2015-02-15

Great Writing Tool For those with Special Needs

This app is an innovative way to practice sentence building with kids with disabilities. Please make this app compatible with iPads.

2015-02-14

Still loving it

I truly love this app! I haven't seen anything like this before. I only wish we could have other sizes as well, like 1:1 or 4:3. Please make this option available in the next update. Thank you!

Update: no editing app has ever felt as great as this one! It's quite unique in what it does and does it well. Kudos to the awesome devs! Can't wait to see the next updates :)

2015-02-12

Beautiful

This is just so fun and awesome.

2014-09-30

😻😻😻😻😻Love It😻😻😻😻😻

💙 I love this👍

it's simple and easy & fun🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

I've made such cute edits of my cat😻

GREAT APP!!!!❤️

😘thank you so much!!!

2014-09-01

awesome

all around really cool

2014-08-21

Another...meh !!!

Another apps that doesn't what all other apps do already !!! No special tools and same old fonts on adding text.

2014-08-21

Tips

I would recommend making the text box of the word able to increase in length and size the word can hold. Overall I love it! It'll help with my short poems!

2014-08-21

Disappointing

I found one editing feature: changing exposure. Where do you add text? Where do you edit? Where are all those creative things promised? They surely are not evident. I deleted.

2014-07-08

Food for thought

Better than the fridge.

2014-05-17

Amazing app

This app is all a family need, love the user experience.

2014-05-17

IPad version...

Please make an iPad version. Keep it up!

2014-04-14

Reduces Redolution

This app reduces the resolution of your photos. Unacceptable. Deleted.

2014-04-14

Love this

Such a beautiful app.

2014-03-25

Get yer meme on!

So good for getting creative with text and photos. Intuitive. Quick. Brilliant!!

2014-02-22

Not working

The app doesnt open .... I tried several times deleting it and reinstalling it on my phone or either turning off my phone and turning it back on and it still doesnt solve the problem . 😞please fix this.

2014-02-11

Must Have For Photo Poetic Junkies!

Easy to use and simple to share, this one of a kind masterpiece says it

all with just a few words and a whole lot of creativity. Make it your own when you personalize each simple plate, turning your words into bold statements. Behind it, your personalized picture awaits to be decorated. With a little extra, you can turn ordinary into extraordinary!

2014-02-10

Post to Instagram...not really!

Really, it's a great app. However, if your intended final share location is Instagram, you cannot work with a square aspect ratio until after you have made your creation and then you have to zoom and crop out a percentage of your work. But still, a great app but I gave it a low score due to the restricted aspect ratio.

2014-02-10

Need don't choices

I love the idea of this app, and the ability to and postcards is great. However, I would love to see some font choices, as well as the choice to use text without the "label." If it had that, it would be a 5 star app!

2014-02-10

Not great

It's hard to PUT the words where you want them. This app will drive you nuts more than you'll know!! DELETED!!!

Much better apps out there than this one!!

2014-02-05

BEST POETRY APP EVER!!!

I love this app. I just got an art app an I got the idea that I should get this app to add words to my art.

2014-02-03

GREAT UPDATE!

Love this app! Easy to work with and fun! Thanks for the new cool update and your commitment to your product!

2014-01-24

Quite cool.

I like this app quite a bit. The idea is unique and the ability to send your pictures as postcards is genious.

2014-01-23

Custom postcards from your phone!

I love the ability to move words around, and get crazy creative with the images, but what really brings this home is the ability to send a postcard right from my phone. I might get addicted to this!

2014-01-23

Nice update!

Love it

2014-01-23

Very cool app.

The new UI is awesome.

Thanks guys

2014-01-14

Wow - Great App!

Finally, an easy to use, creative, social art app. Release your inner poet. New build is faster than ever.

2013-12-28

Poetics

Poetics is simple and thus a joy to use. It's not a game, or a utility, it's a fluid way to explore relationships between photography and language, at least for me.

2013-12-05

Great photo editor

Use it all the time. Rarely write poems

2013-12-05

Why?!?

I had that app and it WAS amazing, but I had to erase all my data a while ago and this app is no long for the iPad. So I can't use this amazing app because of that. Please put poetics give back for the iPad.

2013-12-04

Too much fun!

This is a fun app to use! I really like the concept. It has me going thru my pics to see what I can play with. Just one small snafu- it keeps crashing on the one pic I have. Works on all others so far.

2013-09-14

Fun,easy, and useful!

A great app for poets! Clean format that is easy to understand, lots of different options for photo editing, creative ways to beautify photos! I <3 it!:)

2013-08-09

Amazing!!

This app gives you a chance to express yourself in a completely new and inventive way. Let the creativity flow!!! Love it!

2013-08-09

Love !!

It's easy to use, fun and sleek! Maybe for a future update if there's a way one could change the font... One day I might be feeling more "script", another more "helvetica"...;)

2013-07-18

Like fridge poetry + picture

Simple, easy, elegant way to communicate. I do wish one could tint the white backgrounds behind the words. It stands out a bit much on some work and gives It a sameness. Otherwise looks fun.

2013-07-11

Clean, elegant, fun!

An easy fun way to add some poetic pizazz to your photos. I like the simplicity of the text tool especially - even if you don't think like a poet, it takes the pressure off in its inherent cleanliness.

2013-07-11

Love...

I love this app. I have used it with my friends and with students. We created autobiographies and the students enjoyed using this app. It is easy to use and allows them to use technology in their lessons. Fantastic!

2013-07-09

A Rare Gem!

Highly polished (this is version 1.0?) app that encourages the feelings of unbound exploration we all experienced the first time we saw and then started fiddling with those poetry refrigerator magnets at someone's house. Well done! An ideal and fun app to share with kids and adults alike.

2013-07-09

It's okay.

It kind of feels like a meshing of Instagram and Snapchat but with none of the social interaction. That being said, it's very sleek and does exactly what's stated in the description. I do wish that the text would maybe take some of the same appearance as the filters...sometimes it stands out far too much and takes away from the "visual poetry" so to speak.

2013-07-09

Awesome

Great for use with short blogging like on tumblr etc. Totally recommend for fun small edits with your own thoughts. Very similar to Instagram and picstitch but more modern.

2013-07-09

Favorite Photo App

Top photo app and top 5 apps I use daily. It's so fun to elaborate on my pics with creative text. I'm no poet, but am learning now that I have poetics! My favorite thing is sharing with my friends via twitter and Instagram! Five bright stars!

2013-07-09

Applause!

I have used other visual poetry apps before but always found them hardly flexible in terms of adjusting text or editing photographs. This poetics app offers everything I need to explore my creativity to the fullest. It is not only fun to use, but also a revolutionary form of dialogue for people to treat each other to the wonder of words.
