This app is one of the few photo apps I love, mostly because of the huge number of awe-inspiring backgrounds available for free, as well as the speedy and great job it does melting people from my Photo Album into the backgrounds. However, a significant annoyance is the inability to recall recent backgrounds used. This is important to me because once I found a background I like, I usually use it more than once. To find a previously used background, unfortunately, I currently have to scroll through pages and pages before finding it again. A design improvement would be the addition of a “previously used” background tab that remembers and displays all backgrounds that I have recently used. That would bump it to 5 stars for me.

While the app ITSELF is free to download, the features shown on the preview/info page are not. THOSE you have to pay for. That might be okay if it were just a one-time fee, but it isn’t. Instead, they want you to pay a MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION for the main features they advertise, such as retouching. Nowhere in the description does it say that these features SPECIFICALLY are the ones you have to pay for. It mentions the option of a pro subscription, but it doesn’t include any information as to which features this is needed for. The way the app is advertised currently is VERY misleading because it lists many of the pro features as the main selling points of the app while simultaneously touting the app as free. Without specifying which features come with the free version and which ones only come with a pro subscription on the main info page (and only including info about the pro subscription toward the bottom of the page), this gives the impression that those features shown in the images that are being used as the main selling points are included in the regular version that can be downloaded for free and used WITHOUT an extra subscription. If you think advertising retouching and red eye removal is going to be enough to convince me to pay for a monthly subscription to a (supposedly) free app in order to get those features I downloaded the app for in the first place, think again. I’m even LESS likely to buy your subscription because the of the way you mislead people by touting the PAID features as the dominant selling points of a FREE app without including anything in the description to suggest otherwise. Even IF I would have normally considered purchasing a subscription, the misleading advertising is enough to turn me away completely. So thanks, but no, thanks. I like my companies deception free.

I’m loving the free version. Makes my simple photos come alive and grab attention. It gives me pleasure to edit and enhance my ordinary snapshots right from my IOS phone. And the app performs the transformation speedily. I’m considering the Pro version. However, it’s not clear to me the justification for the cost. I see that with Pro the watermarks can be removed and more fillers/backgrounds are available. That’s great. However, my hesitation is the time consumed looking for that perfect enhancement background/filler. The onlyoption I see is to scroll through the catalog. A search feature would make me and my camera happy. Or the option to save myfavorite backgrounds/fillers would work. Would love to hear from you about this. Thanks for your amazing product.

I have Photo Lab and really like it. I thought since this is the same company I’d give this a try because I was looking for something to do minor touch ups to some family photos before printing. I found this app to be annoying to use and to have very few features that actually help you retouch or edit photos. It does have backgrounds and bokeh effects and stuff but since I already have Photo Lab — which is WAY better for those things — I don’t care that this app has those features. I was not able to edit even one photo in a way that I felt was an improvement with this app. It auto-applies “makeup” and retouches, or auto lighting/color changes and just does not make the photos better AT ALL. If you want cool backgrounds and lighting effects download their other app, Photo Lab. If you want to edit portraits get something else... I dunno what, but not this. Also beware of the pricing for the pro service. It’s s trap!
