Works well but subscription adds up

It’s always sad to see such great apps go the way of the subscription model, it’s just too much when you already have a few apps on top of the other bills coming in. Then some charge an extortion to be able to own it outright. I vote for these these with my wallet, ie I don’t buy into it. I had enough of that malarkey with a well known photo editing company However, the app works really well, if you have the cash and want to save some time cutting people from their backgrounds then this is a great bit of software. Or, use the money saved and get some lessons on doing it yourself with the many photo editors out there.

Edit: The devs response that the paid version allows a higher quality (read normal) output and the removal of their logo shows how crippled the free version is and why you’re forced to pay if you want anything decent to come out of the app. If there was a reasonable priced pay to own option it would be ok. To be honest, I wish apple would make all apps show the subscription model and price up front on the store so the buyer can decide to download in the first instance. I’ve read countless reports of people being sucked in with 3 day trials and their money taken. Subscription is killing this industry, just as Adobe is losing favour with many from it. Again, vote with your wallet. Thanks

Best App Ever!

I’ve tried for 4 years now to find an app that will allow me to easily remove the background for my Poshmark closet listings and this app takes just seconds to the job and even has a number of free additional features that I will use frequently that are amazing!

I’ve only used this for 2 days now and I’m going to go ahead and subscribe for the PRO edition, not because the free version doesn’t do most everything I need it for, but there’s so many additional features I’d love to use that the $10 monthly fee is more than worth it!

I have about 1,000 listings in my Poshmark closet and at least 1,500 more to list and I’m going to update all of my photos this week to finally give me closet a cleaner and more uniform look. It’s completely changed the look of my listings and I can’twait to update the rest of my closet!!

Love the app

This is great for removing backgrounds. I like the different features it provides. However, there is one little caveat that I dislike about the scanning. Obviously lighting is very key to the scanning process but if your product has a shadow underneath (or maybe it doesn’t) it will remove it. For example, I tried to scan a car. There is enough lighting foe the product to show up all its features including its legs. However, when the app scans, it will leave out one leg or not scan them at all. I’ve read the articles and I don’t see mention of this issue. Unless of course you buy their PRO. Maybe in the near future I may do that, but for now - the features they provide for free are more than enough for what I need. It saves me so much time in removing backgrounds and if it scans and leaves something out then I go to another app to adjust it and come back to this one to remove the rest. Highly recommend this app!

Good for shop owners

I’ve only just become a pro member and already I’m loving it! We have a shop, so it’s been great showcasing our products. I initially bought the app for photographing our furniture as we don’t have a nice staging area. My only gripe is I wish the automatic editor when it’s scanning the furniture would be a little more advanced. For background staging it usually misses off the legs etc. I know this can be done manually but I mess it up & don’t have the time, which is why I bought this in the 1st place. When I have removed an item from the photo, I’m also left with a grey & white checked area - when I would prefer it to mimic the surrounding colour (such as removing a a photo frame from the picture, I’m left with a gaping hole when it would be nice if you could cut and paste another part of the sideboard to fill the gap in the same colour/texture)

Access to all my photos???

I like the idea of this app supposedly removing the back grounds in 3 secs but I don’t like the set up. The app asks to have access to all my photos and does not give me the option to share only certain ones.
No! I will not allow you to have access to all my photos right off the hop! Deleting the app right away.

Error

I used this app before and it was awesome how the new update made everything difficult i can’t edit the pics tried a lot even re installing but didn’t work can’t up load pic now and the app crashes and becomes a black screen very disappointed now

paid app behind a free label

the feature the app does it really cool but i feel like what they do is pretty much a scam. the app is free in the app store but when you install they give you 3 days free and ask you to pay for a subscription after that. if you want to charge, create a pro version or make it paid straight in the app store. making me download and install it to discover it’s paid makes me feel scammed.
