Every so often, a new app comes along that goes viral and takes the world by storm. This time, that app is called Prequel. This popular photo editing app and its cartoon filter have everyone buzzing. However, is this app really free?

New apps come and go all the time, and now and again, an app comes along that creates a big stir. Think back to popular apps from a few years ago, such as Flappy Bird, Vine, and Face App. The latest viral app, Prequel, has everyone excited with its new cartoon filter. However, as with many apps, we can’t help wondering if it’s free.

Unfortunately, many apps are free to download these days, but the moment you want to start using the features or participating in any way, there will be a fee requested. This is especially true for photo and video editing apps that use many specialized tools to create different effects.

The cartoon filter on the Prequel app is a very good one. The app uses AI magic to transform your photo into a hand-drawn, cartoon-style image. The results are beautiful, unique, and very entertaining. And you can use the cartoon filter for free when downloading the Prequel app.

Yes, the cartoon filter is free to use however most other aspects of the Prequel app will require a monthly subscription. This means when you download the free app, you can use the most basic editing tools and the cartoon filter without paying anything. However, you’ll not have access to the advanced editing tools, effects, the ‘Retouch Toolkit,’ or any other filters unless you pay for the subscription. 

It seems there is another app in the app store that lures you in with a fun incentive but prohibits you from using all the app’s features without paying. Despite that initial disappointment, the cartoon filter is still fun, and if you only ever use basic editing tools, this could be a great app for you.

Born and raised in South Africa I am the mother of two busy kids and one loving husband. Since leaving school I immediately started working and have been involved in many different industries where I learned a wide range of skills. Some of my skills range from marketing to management and even teaching special needs children, particularly those with severe developmental delays. I am a self-proclaimed holiday nut, taking any chance I can get to decorate and celebrate major holidays such as Easter, Halloween and Christmas, often planning these months in advance! I have a wide range of passions that I persue (as often as I can) such as reading, writing, bonsai, crafting, creating natural beauty products, listening to music and playing games (prefered platforms being PC and Xbox).
