Pixly: AI Image Generator 4+

I created a few projects, works pretty cool. I felt like there was a limited number of options once you make a handful. What else would be cool? Then I saw an ad on instagram for this app saying you can upload your photo and choose a favorite celebrity to create a project of the 2 of you together. This sounded cool, so I tried to do that and there’s no category in the app for this effect. I’ve been chasing every menu item and can’t find this advertised feature. I have the latest version and it’s just not there. I would love to find this option, and to have a larger option of effects.

I purchased the Revive app, which is similar AI technology and was so thrilled with its results that I didn’t hesitate purchasing the Pixly app from what it portrayed on its Facebook ad. I’ve made four projects so far and only one has turned out. The first one did some mermaid effect to the image, which is not what I asked for. The second was supposed to put my image in a short scene with Einstein. The woman in the result was not even close to looking like the image I uploaded. I wish I could paste the two here to show you. Seriously, it was some completely different woman who looked nothing at all like me. The third was an anime. I uploaded a picture of my daughter with her husband and son. This one was close except the little boy in the anime had jet black hair and my grandson’s hair is almost white. The last one, another anime that starts with a front image of my daughter and she swings around as the image turns into an anime rendition of her. That one turned out.

You are limited to a number of “coins” you can use before needing to purchase more to make more projects. At a rate of one good project out of four, this app is definitely not worth the price.

I was really hoping this app would work as advertised. But I was hugely disappointed. For one it can take several hours to generate an image. There is no free trial for you to test the app and I am guessing they do that for a reason. The least amount of money you can spend is $8.99 and that is a 1 week commitment. I decided to spend the $8.99 and try the app before I committed to the full year. From the first image I tried generating. It did not work as advertised and at the end of my image. It was mixed with someone else’s picture. I tried another image and it worked better. But still not as advertised. They also make you pay additional money to buy “coins” to generate images. It’s like 10 coins per image and they charge an additional $5 per 50 coins.

I cancelled my subscription immediately and requested a refund. The support team got back to me 2 days later and told me they don’t have the ability to refund money and sent me to Apple support. I am hugely disappointed in the whole app and hopefully this review can save someone else the money they would have wasted.
