Photoleap: AI Photo Generator 4+

This app is broken. Please fix it.

Hello. You recently made an update where you moved the Vignette feature from "effects" to "adjust" but for some inexplicable reason you specifically removed the blur feature, which I'm pretty sure a lot of people including me really needed, and it can't be found ANYWHERE else, not even behind your paywall. What happened? And can you bring it back please?

Ok.... your most recent update is completely broken. I make an edit to a photo, but as soon as I click the checkmark, I can't edit the image anymore. If I select it, it selects a blank rectangle in front of it, and the image is somehow stuck to the background now. If I save the project to my photo album, it saves a blank picture with nothing on it. If I discard the project and start a new one, that same image is fused intot he background and when I add any more images, they just appear as more blank rectangles.

I used to love this app but it only took 2 updates for yall to completely break it. I hope everybody else has this issue so that you actually think about fixing it. If you can't figure out what the issue is then literally just revert back to the last update. This update added nothing useful - just utter destruction

Good features - when they work

Update: Been a huge fan of the company for a long time. Paid user of Videoleap and Photoleap. Photoleap making quick advancements into the AI realm has been great but recent updates have actually caused the AI features to be lackluster in comparison to when AI first appeared in the app. With that said the AI transformation layout is lackluster and rarely creates images and if it does they are usually terrible AI looking messes.

Features I would like to see are proper cloning tools, generative fill, better AI for enhancing and colorizing images, and text effects and other text tools.

Old: I hate to be the guy leaving a review because of issues but that’s going to have to be me this time. Been a fan of the app for a long time now. Also a paid lifetime sub of Videoleap. However I recently decided to go all in with a lifetime sub for Photoleap and am very disappointed in the app performance. Want to add an effect? Click to crash. Want to change an effect? Click to crash. Want to check out templates. Click to crash. Latest iOS iPhone 13 max plus.

Two years ago, this would have been a 5 star review, but they changed 3 layers to 2.

Photoleap used to be a very well-balanced app. There were paid and free features, which makes perfect sense. If you want the full functionality of the app, get the paid version. If you want a very usable but limited version, keep it free. For years I have loved Photoleap, as they were a very waste to use, powerful, and functional program. Since then, however, the app has made one small change that completely ruins the free version. In the paid version you get twelve layers to work with, which is a lot. In the free version, you had three. Three is limiting but still powerful. You can get stuff done and do it well. Recently though, Photoleap reduced the free layers to two, which seems like a small change, but wreaks havoc on the way you use the app. Want an image with a bit of text on the top and bottom? You used to be able to put your image down, write your top text (second layer) and copy the layer to create matched bottom text. (Third layer) taking away the third layer completely removes the ability to copy effects. If you want a bunch of stars all over your image, you were able to copy them and bake them onto the photo layer. Now you have to individually recreate any edits to your stars because you can’t copy a second star. PLEASE give us back our third layer Photoleap. The free version is no longer useful which reflects the app poorly.
