DaVinci - AI Image Generator 4+

Art - including the AI box features if you paid extra for those - is not unlimited! It’s limited to 50 tries. So if you are kind of generating through multiple prompts to get a specific result, you may run out before you’re done. Even worse, every time I try to do one or two “looks” it will glitch out. It’s also tending towards a kind of racist look to everything… I’ve tried making avatars of my Mexican family members, and even when I type “male” “man” and “brown eyes” “brown hair” it will rarely give me brown eyes and they are light brown. It gives me primarily gray or blue eyes. Everything is by default skewed to white skin, blonde hair, blue eyes it seems. Is this the fault of the app? Maybe not… it might just be an AI thing that it has inherent biases reflecting the information it has “learned.” But it’s annoying and it’s another thing to be aware of if you have plans to use it for art or avatars featuring people of color.

That said, I have had fun using it most of the time. I liked making some tattoo ideas and for that it’s a good time.

AI is an exciting thing. We see it in our daily lives on social media all the time. The problem I have it’s preying on people who want something they’ll never have. Apple allows it. I brought this to their attention believing I was getting the item I believed, and this app didn’t deliver. Like any consumer who buys a product that isn’t what it seems, I’m fighting for a refund. This app generates the worst pictures, a toddler could draw them better. It’s like the AI is a kid who burnt half his brain huffing spray paint is drawing these works of art. I’ve brought it to Apples attention, but they’re fighting back “can’t give a refund?” Why not? You all let these developers put whatever they want on your store without any regard for the consumer, let alone doing any sort of vetting. It has high ratings but like most things we know that just because it has high ratings doesn’t mean it’s deserving. Review bombing is half the reasons so many films have low scores because small pockets of people bash it in the reviews until their obsolete or canceled. That’s the trend and apps are no different. This app is trash and needs to be taken down for not delivering what they’re asking. All those “pictures” that are posted on here as sneak peaks don’t even generate like that. I wish we could post pictures of the outcome of what they actually look like on here. Avoid. Ridiculous.

First off, this is a terrible app. The images I tried to make were all garbage. It gets so much wrong. Everything looks disfigured so forget realistic looking images. The artsy stuff leaves much to be desired as well. Unfortunately there is not way to capture the few things it gets right to combine with other elements. Some simple editing would help. I tried to make a lot of logos for sports teams and it couldn’t even display text properly. It added extra letters to my text. This is one of the worst AI applications I have tested!! To make things worse they offered me a free trial but I had already used it. Having forgotten I went to activate it. The confirmation screen showed $0 so how would I have know there would be a problem? I approved it with my Face ID. I would never have done this if it said anything other than free. I immediately canceled auto renew and began my disappointing experience of using the app. Days later I received the bill. They should not be able to do this. Apple is also quite scummy for how they treated me when trying to resolve the issue. But DaVinci should not be able to offer free trials to anyone who has already done it. For me, it was probably long ago and I didn’t get to use it because I was a busy teacher. We deserve better as consumers!
