PicTapGo Classic: Frequently Asked Questions

Can I re-order the filters in My Style or the recipes in my Recipe collection?

At the moment, the order of filters in My Style is completely managed for you by PicTapGo based on your usage patterns. The Recipes are arranged alphabetically (so if you really wanted to, you could force whatever ordering you want by adding a number to the beginning of the recipe name).

Can I take HDR / Panoramic images with the PicTapGo camera?

PicTapGo only supports a basic camera for capture. The main focus of the app is on editing, and the camera is included more as a convenience for quick snapshots. For more elaborate camera features, you’ll have to capture images with a different app, then open them afterward in PicTapGo for editing.

How do I delete or rename a recipe?

Press and hold (long press) on a recipe’s thumbnail to bring up the recipe menu. There, you can choose to delete or rename it.

How do I reset my recipes or filter order?

When you first open the app, there’s a gear icon in the top-left of the Pic screen. Tap that to access PicTapGo’s Settings and Help. In the Settings section, there are buttons that allow you to reset various parts of the app to their default state.

How do I save a recent recipe to my permanent recipe list?

Press and hold (long press) on a recent recipe’s thumbnail, and give it a name to save it permanently.

How do I paste an image into PicTapGo?

Most native iPhone apps allow you to copy an image to the clipboard. Usually, you tap and hold on an image until the Copy option appears. Tap Copy, then head back to PicTapGo and click the clipboard icon in the bottom-right of the Pic screen.

How can I control the crop of the image sent to Instagram?

At the moment, we only offer three options for sending a photo to Instagram. Crop will take a crop from the center of the image, and Full will pad the image with whitespace to preserve the original image within Instagram’s square format. “Float” preserves the original photo aspect ratio, and also adds some additional whitespace around the image.

Where is PicTapGo for Android?

Unfortunately, we will not be producing an updated PicTapGo for Android, and the original PicTapGo Classic app has been removed from sale as well. I know that’s a disappointment for all our Android users, and I sincerely hope that someday we’ll be in a position to give it another shot. For now, however, we’re choosing to focus on the things we can do well, and we don’t have the resources to keep the Android app up to the standards our users expect and deserve. Sorry!
