### 5/5 — Impressive

*2026-03-09*

Like this app for restoration.  Only in one photo, there was some exaggerated features.

**Developer response:** Thanks, happy the restoration worked well for you. Sorry that one photo came out with features too strong, we're working to make results look more natural.

Perfect

### 5/5 — So far

*2026-02-05*

Restored an old family picture it’s AI but it does look good.

**Developer response:** Thanks for giving it a try, old family photos are exactly the kind of memories we love seeing brought back to life.

### 5/5 — Love it

### 5/5 — Free guy

*2025-12-21*

The free tier is awesome

**Developer response:** Thanks, that means a lot. Happy the free tier is working well for you.

### 5/5 — Pretty decent

*2025-11-14*

I love this app, I wish negative prompting was apart of it and I feel it would make it absolutely perfect, but if you are pretty direct with your prompting then this will give you exactly what you’re looking for. Bellisima

**Developer response:** Thanks, that means a lot. Negative prompting is a great idea, and we’ll keep it in mind as we work on making prompts even better.

### 1/5 — SCAM

*2026-01-02*

Tried for a couple days but didn’t the effects weren’t great, other than the photo restore which was ok. But then even though I cancelled and deleted the app before the trial was over, it started charging me.

**Developer response:** We’re sorry for the bad experience and appreciate your feedback. We’ve improved our AI a lot in recent updates.

If a subscription is canceled before the trial ends, Apple does not charge anything—billing is handled entirely by Apple. If there was an issue, Apple Support can help clarify it.

### 2/5 — Did not do what it said it would do

*2025-11-23*

I tried to sharpen several portraits and the only thing this app did was redden the faces in the portrait and it didn’t matter what setting I used. I will be deleting this app.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We’re working on improving our AI to give better results.

### 3/5 — Almost Great

*2026-02-28*

The app is very very good at making text based image edits/changes. It’s very good at following prompts and does a fantastic job - BUT, this review is titled ‘almost great’ because it has 2 critical flaws. 1. The image results/outputs are extremely compressed jpegs. There’s no native png option. Jpegs are compressed at maybe a 5-6 quality, giving images with a file size of well below 200kb (usually around 100-120kb). This renders the beautiful image work done essentially unusable. The details in faces, textures, sharpness of the source image are destroyed. It’s compressed to a level that wouldn’t even look good or acceptable for social media/phone display. Which is unfortunate, because simply changing the compression or allowing uncompressed pngs would fix that issue entirely. 2. Less important than #1, but still notable: The maximum output image size is notably about 20% smaller than similar apps (example: largest dimension caps at 1248 vs 1536+ in other apps). This one isn’t nearly as important due to the extreme image compression/degradation mentioned above, but it would be important were the image results uncompressed or reasonably compressed in the first place. Overall, this could be one of the best apps out there. Without a doubt. But the compression ruins the images. I’ve been told they’re working on the extreme image compression issue, but that was long ago and it hasn’t improved. They’ve almost got a perfect app!

### 3/5 — Sort pics when downloading

*2026-02-26*

In this app, after enhancing the photo, there is no way to choose / place the pic back in an album. Also, the original unaltered  pic needs to be retained in its originating album. The enhanced pic should download back into the originating album, on into the album that you choose to place innit, instead of ending up in the “ recent” album. App may nicely unblur the pic, but who knows where it went?

### 4/5 — Works well

*2026-07-20*

Works well. A few things they could do better but it’s good overall

**Developer response:** Thanks, that means a lot. We’re working on the rough spots so the app feels even better to use.

The enhanced pic should download back into the originating album, on into the album that you choose to place innit, instead of ending up in the “ recent” album. App may nicely unblur the pic, but who knows where it went?
Update:
 I wanted the altered photo, after I used your app to change it, to be next to the unaltered photo, in the same folder/ album from which it originated. 
But, I do not know the kind of restrictions that Apple puts on developers, perhaps they restrict access in their apps? Or they only allow altered photos from other apps to end up in recents… If so, sorry to have criticized your app. 
The app even corrects the fuzziness of her not terrific photos, just, 40 years after she took them. Even the photos of her as a girl. AI is kinda scary. 
    
But my problem (in the previous review) was that your app did not put the photo back in the folder/album where I had previously sorted it. It is easy for the user  to move the photo to another album in the Apple Photos app
My  laziness to do that step in the apple photos app doesn't really make your app any less valid in its primary function of “fixing” old photos. 
      It still would be a nice feature.

**Developer response:** Thanks for pointing this out. You’re right, saved photos landing only in Recents makes them hard to find, and we’re looking into better album options while keeping the original photo where it is.

### 4/5 — Impressive

Like this app for restoration.  Only in one photo, there was some exaggerated features.

### 4/5 — Restore Photos

*2026-02-05*

For the most part this app is amazing. Have used it on photos that other apps have not been able to clean up. And although the majority of these photos look amazing, there have been a few where the app totally changes the look of the person to something that is not correct. But overall I am very happy with it

**Developer response:** Thanks for sharing this. We’re happy it’s helped save photos other apps couldn’t, and we know it’s frustrating when a face comes out looking like the wrong person, so we’re working to make those results more true to the original.

### 4/5 — Almost perfect!

*2026-01-26*

This app is very nearly perfect and a top contender. It does editing extremely well, it just falls short in one critical area: image compression. While it may restore or edit photos beautifully, the results are so heavily compressed (jpeg or png) that the details are obliterated. Starting with a tack sharp portrait and running it through a textural edit or enhance may make the changes you ask for, but the result is compressed so much that all sharpness is lost and the image appears incredibly low quality (unless you have a 2 inch iphone). 
That’s the only downside - it excels or matches other apps (even something like chatgpt), but the results are too compressed (jpeg file size is often 100-150kb, which indicates around a 50-60% jpeg compression level). If they fix that or allow for pngs to be uncompressed (file sizes of 800kb-1.5mb), they’d be the best app on the planet!

**Developer response:** Thank you for the detailed review! We’ll be improving our compression algorithm to preserve more detail and offer higher-quality outputs. We really appreciate your feedback!

### 4/5 — Annoying pop-up asking you to constantly rate it

*2025-11-30*

The program works incredibly well, but it never ever stops asking you to rate them every second photo it ask you to give them a rating it dries you crazy when you’re doing a lot of work I think you guys as this is a paid program not a free version

**Developer response:** Sorry about that. We fixed the feedback dialog issue. If things work better now, we’d appreciate an updated rating. Thank you!

### 5/5 — By far the very best!!

*2026-08-13*

This is by far the very best photo enhancing app I’ve ever used period.  Results are nothing short of spectacular, pretty much every time. The odd photo I run thru it doesn’t always get the perfect result I expect, but 99% of the time it is absolutely exceptional! A subscription for is required for the pro version and I do feel the price is very fair. I would however like to see an option for “lifetime purchase.” There are other apps that offer this and I’d be willing to pay as much as $500.00 for it. Aside from that, this app is truly incredible and I’m very pleased. Keep up the good work!

### 5/5 — I am a Pro Photographer

*2026-04-10*

This app has performed excellent for my needs. I have waited since 2020 for an AI that could fix Photos from a lens that fell, hit the concrete, lost its hard settings and blurred every shot. This app can and has starting fixing those lost photo’s!

**Developer response:** Thank you—hearing that the app is helping recover images from such a difficult shoot means a lot. We’re especially glad it’s proving useful for a professional photographer and helping bring those blurred, seemingly lost photos back to life. Thank you for sharing your experience.
