### 2/5 — 뭔; 무료체험라고이라고? ㅋㅋㅋ

*2026-04-16*

처음에 이용할 때 무료체험 3일 이라고 해놓고 막상 동의하면 갑자기 무료체험이 비활성화 되면서 결제가 되는데 사용자 기만하시나요? ㅌㅋㅋ

**Developer response:** 안녕하세요, 불편을 드려서 정말 죄송합니다.

무료체험은 App Store 구독 시스템을 통해 제공되며, 체험 기간 중에는 요금이 청구되지 않습니다. 혹시 바로 결제된 것처럼 보이셨다면, App Store에서 "결제 예정"으로 표시된 것일 수 있습니다.

구독 확인 및 취소는 설정 → Apple ID → 구독에서 하실 수 있습니다.

만약 실제로 체험 기간 없이 결제가 되었다면, aigahaku@gmail.com으로 Apple ID 이메일과 함께 연락 주시면 직접 확인해 드리겠습니다.

### 4/5 — すごい良いものだけど惜しい！

*2026-03-08*

エラーが精細系のエラーが頻発と、色の識別がおかしいのと、
AI入れるのも良いけどそのままドット変換とAI変換を分けた機能をつけて選びたい。
作ってる途中でエラーはキツイわ。
何とかして欲しい。良いアプリなだけにとても残念。

**Developer response:** レビューありがとうございます！アプリを気に入っていただけているのに、エラーが頻発してしまい本当に申し訳ないです。作業中にエラーで止まるのはかなりストレスですよね…。

精細系のエラーと色の識別については、次回のアップデートで改善に取り組みます。また「そのままドット変換」と「AI変換」を選べるようにする機能は、とても良いアイデアですね！検討リストに追加しました。

もしエラーが続くようでしたら、お手数ですが aigahaku@gmail.com までエラーが起きた時の状況をお送りいただけると、原因の特定がしやすくなります。

良いアプリにしていきたいので、引き続きご意見お聞かせください！

### 1/5 — 二度と使わない

*2026-02-28*

ひとつの動作をする度に課金しろってポップアップが出てきて即アンインストールした

**Developer response:** レビューいただきありがとうございます。課金のポップアップが頻繁に表示されてしまい、ご不快な思いをさせてしまって本当に申し訳ありません。

個人で開発しているアプリのため、サブスクリプションで運営を支えていただく形をとっておりますが、無料でも基本的なピクセルアート変換はお使いいただけるようにしております。ポップアップの表示頻度については、ご指摘を受けて見直しを検討いたします。

貴重なご意見、ありがとうございました。

### 1/5 — Клянчат отзыв и деньги на старте, без денег не работает

*2026-02-03*

Жадные люди! Без оплаты не реботает даже пробная версия.

**Developer response:** Здравствуйте! Спасибо за ваш отзыв.

Понимаю ваше разочарование. Хочу пояснить: в бесплатной версии доступны базовые пиксельные стили — попробуйте их без регистрации и оплаты. Премиум открывает дополнительные стили.

Как инди-разработчик, я стараюсь найти баланс между бесплатными функциями и поддержкой развития приложения. Ваше мнение важно для меня!

### 1/5 — too much ads!

*2026-01-04, version 4.16.4*

why tf it’s always -88% off? and it’s €35/year. so u wanna tell that full price per year is €290? ridiculous. adobe os cheaper probably. i would like to got a subscription. but u r not fair, guys. it doesn’t cost this money. and ad is soooo long. i’m gonna find something else

### 1/5 — It feels really clunky and low quality

*2025-12-30*

Both ui and ux feels super outdated and it failed to demonstrate its value. I really wanted to like this app but just overall experience is really unwelcoming

**Developer response:** Thank you for your honest feedback.

I appreciate your comments about the UI/UX. As a solo developer, I'm continuously working to improve the user experience. Your feedback is valuable for future updates.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

### 5/5 — めっちゃいい！

*2025-11-26*

簡単にできてやりやすい！

**Developer response:** レビューありがとうございます！

「簡単にできてやりやすい」と言っていただけて嬉しいです。個人開発者として、このようなフィードバックが励みになります。

これからもよろしくお願いします！

### 1/5 — 有料版の意味とは？

*2025-10-09*

年額を購入していて、
更新まで期限も残っているのに、
毎回有料版購入の広告が出てきます。

購入復元をしても戻らず、
有料機能が使えません。

有料版でお金を払っているのに無料と同じ機能しか使えないので非常に残念です。

**Developer response:** レビューありがとうございます。

有料版が正常に機能していない件、大変申し訳ございません。購入の復元ができない問題について、詳しくお聞かせいただけますでしょうか。

aigahaku@gmail.com までご連絡いただければ、直接サポートさせていただきます。
