GIO: AI Headshot Generator Pro ١٢+

Amazing, terrible, fair, terrific

This app is best used to change clothes and background, not hair, face, etc. So if you start off with that understanding, you won’t be disappointed. My daughters and I tried these for fun, and while I wouldn’t say this app is good enough to take seriously for pictures, some of them did pretty well. Old money filter: unrecognizable from who I am. Business suits, hit or miss. The AI’s decision of chest and shoulders were disproportionately large for my frame, the hair looked great and other times hilarious. I think this app still needs a little work but I definitely think you won’t waste your money… especially if you go do some shots targeted specifically for the app to use.

Not for Black men

I decided to give this app a shot to see if it could give me a a decent LinkedIn headshot before I take a professional one. It does a pretty good job of editing you into a shot. There is a fair amount of templates to try too. It's about as good as I could've done on my own with Photoshop but it only takes about 20 seconds per photo and there's absolutely no effort on your end. Just pick a photo to wedge yourself into and the AI does all the work.

The reason I give it three stars is because, no surprises here, it doesn't work with Black people's hair. There's no option to ignore certain areas of your headshot. No matter what you do, it's going to "dress up" your hair and that means you're getting a perm! It does figure out what colors will look most "natural," and goes on from there. For example, I sometimes forget I have natural highlights in my hair. The app clearly picked up on this. I was given a White men's hairstyle that did actually "look right" on my head... impressive, but no! Social norms dictate this still may be a useful tool for Black women, but Black men should definitely save their money. I paid seven dollars so you won't have to. DO NOT buy this app if you are a Black man. It's a complete waste of your time and energy. (unless you already have a perm 😂😂)

Hi, sorry for the inconvenience caused. We know about the hair issues and we're working hard to fix them as soon as possible. It affects all kind of short hair and bald people, no matter of race, gender and age.
A solution will be implemented soon. Also, we would be grateful, if you could share some before&after examples with us. Users’ examples help us a lot to improve the product. You may contact us from the app's Settings menu -> Help -> Send feedback or at support@gioapp.ai.

Same blue shirts and suits no matter what

I was initially excited to try this app for a LinkedIn profile pic. At first, I was super excited until I realized I had paid $30 to get the same blue office shirt or blue suit over and over. I’m a woman and don’t want a blue suit with an ugly necklace. There are no options to change the suit color. Even when I select a black suit, it’s always blue. The only good clothing option has been the black or pastel top, but there’s no discernible variation. I don’t expect a refund because how else can they pay the developers to improve the product? Can they give us hope that new clothing styles are coming? I'd be focused on improving ratings and not trying to upcharge when new clothing selections become available. I’d like to see a black office shirt, a white office shirt, a modern black suit, and a grey suit. Those are just a few that should be updated ASAP to give users a better experience. I feel the same as many other users in that you waste so many credits trying to see a change in the clothing options or correct the hair. I think this app has potential, but it won't be good until it provides more clothing options, especially for a corporate headshot, which is why I believe many users seek out his spp.

Hello! Most likely, you have purchased a pack of avatars and you have chosen only one style for the pack :( There are lots of different styles and options in Gio. In avatars packs, you may choose several styles for one pack, as well.
Please, contact us from the app's Settings menu -> Help -> Send feedback, and provide us with screenshots or screen records illustrating the issue, so that we could assist you better.
