Makes my photos unrecognizable

Ive used (and loved) a lot of photo apps, so Im not sure why Im getting such terrible results from this app. There seems to be no way to adjust how the filter interprets your photo. So I spend lots of time in other apps, trying to change contrast and white balance so this app can give me a recognizable result. Instead, I keep getting results that are too light, too dark, or just look like random parts of the photo were erased. Disappointing.
