AI Avatars NOT included / Explicit Language Warnings Needed!

This is a neat app. I bought a lifetime deal. But, I was surprised to learn that AI Avatars are NOT included and cost an additional $7.99 for 48 of them. To make matters worse, it’s not even clear from the descriptionless photo ad if that’s one picture generated as 48 different versions or 48 different photos generated individually.

On this App Store page they advertise AI Avatars as if it’s part of the app and NEVER Mention this is an additional charge after you buy the lifetime subscription. It’s FALSE advertising and feels like a “bait and switch”.

AI Avatars should be included (even if there’s a daily or weekly limit).

Additionally this app FEATURES sound bites with very bad language or offensive content (ie. strong profanity; or talking about drinking, sex drugs; etc.) that I don’t want my kids exposed to. For many clips, you don’t know what will be said until you click the play icon. The app developer should put an “Explicit Content” tag on these (at the very least), or even better; move them to a protected Explicit Content / Adults Only section of the app.

They collect all your data!

This seems to be created for collecting your data!
To even try one photo you have to not only pay, but then sign away all of your privacy: “Hi. Kindly provide RefaceAl Limited (d/b/a Revive) with permission to collect your biometric data (facial data) contained in your photos by clicking "I've read and agree with the above".”

And more.
There is no just reason why they need any of these things in order to process a photo!!!!

Disingenuous. Does not animate old pictures. Just faces.

I had clicked on a link inside social media when I saw an advertisement that showed the app animating a vintage photo. That option was not available. No free trial, or watermark sample before purchase, so I wasted money on the week of use only to delete the app within 20 minutes.

Response from developer

We’re really sorry to hear about your disappointing experience. We understand your frustration with the app not meeting your expectations, especially after seeing the advertisement. While we aim to improve the app continuously, we apologize for any confusion caused by the lack of a free trial or sample.

Pro doesn’t give you all access

I recently downloaded this and subscribed to the Pro, which claimed to give full unlimited access, great. I animated a couple of pictures of my late grandparents. I then tried to get some AI avatars of myself, but in order to do so they tried to charge me another £7.99 on top of the Pro fee that had promised everything. Subscription cancelled, refund requested and I’ll be deleting the app as well as telling people to avoid.

Response from developer

Unlike other app features, The AI Avatar does not come with a subscription. At the same time, for an additional payment, you can get up to 48 generated photos in a style of your choosing. If you have any content suggestions, please, contact us at hi@reviveapp.net. We will be happy to hear from you.

Took my money and avoids refunds, for purchased by mistake

I am reaching out to request an immediate refund for a charge that occurred despite my prior dispute and cancellation. Here is the situation in detail:
1. Initially, I purchased a one-week trial for $5.49,
2. Later, I resumed the subscription intending to purchase another one-week trial for $5.49. However, instead of being charged $5.49, I was billed $59 for a yearly subscription.
3. Upon noticing the incorrect charge, I promptly contacted you to dispute the payment and requested that the transaction be stopped. and refunded but you are not answering my posts

Despite my dispute and clear instructions to halt the payment, the charge was still processed. This is deeply concerning and bad bussiness ethics,

Don’t waste your money

There’s no trial. You have to pay for a week to find out it’s not great after all. I just threw money down the drain. Read the rest of the reviews and sort by newest to see how many people are upset.

PHISHING FRAUD SCAM

Application advertises on Facebook that you’ll be able to upload pictures and make them sing with all songs which isn’t true! If you’ve paid a One Time Free of 39.99$, it comes out to 45.98$ CDN, plus it doesn’t include all features ! Now that’s a double #scam! They advertise a single fee for an all-time subscription although it’s nowhere true; you’ll have to pay another 9.99$ for AI Face Generative . #Apple has been informed of such malpractice.

Cool but after the pro, gets more expensive

I purchased the pro version after a special offer popped up. I found the avatar section that I thought was included but asked for another 7.99 usd. It stated one time purchase 47 avatars. I purchased what I thought was the set. When I went to create another it asked me again for 7.99 usd. I understand AI engines are expensive but this is deceiving, when it says 47 avatar for 7.99 it should not ask you to purchase again just for another type of avatar. I’m ok with the performance but frankly not happy with having to spend each time an avatar is created.
