What users say

Latest reviews, United States App Store.

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026
Impressive

This app is truly awesome

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026
AI

Paying for the subscription and then charging for coins to use the AI effects is a rip off. Especially when half the time the AI effects distort the photo and make the person in the photo look completely different. Doesn’t seem right.

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026
$6/week and many forms to even try it

What happened to the freemium model? This is basically a trap to collect info about you.

★★★★★Oct 19, 2026
Elide

La mejor app ya déjenme

★★★★★Oct 19, 2026
Zero support

Only support option is email & they took literally a month to email back asking what I need. I was even paying by the week. NOPE. CANCELLED. DELETED. CHOSE InShot.

★★★★★Oct 19, 2026
Bogus 2-Day Trial

I signed up for the 2-Day trial and was immediately charged for a full year. When I disputed the charge with Apple they said it wasn’t eligible for a refund. I can’t even start to review an app that ripped me off. Trier Beware!
