### 2/5 — Not free

*2025-11-18, version 1.6*

Only can process 3 minutes of a video.  I’m not sure you can process more with an “ in app purchase”!

### 3/5 — Review

Good app..

### 3/5 — Review

*2024-11-24*

Good app.. and if it had options for subscription and a stabilizer for videos it would be more useful.

### 1/5 — Insufficient funds smh

*2024-05-21, version 1.6*

I payed for credits and it still saying insufficient funds smh

### 1/5 — Is useless

*2024-04-02, version 1.6*

After you edit the video it stores in the tasks section and takes 7 days to proses. So no content for 7 days. Is interesting who was so clever and did this magic thing?!

### 2/5 — So frustrating

*2024-03-10, version 1.6*

Takes forever to load gives you so many adverts then there’s more loading and it’s all just a waste of time because the quality ends up being the same but uglier really, it only works if the video you send already has like half decent quality.

### 1/5 — Not a good app at all.

*2024-02-29, version 1.6*

I downloaded and paid for the app credit to edit the video. It said it will take .30 seconds for every second of the video to upscale the video.  My video is a 29 second video and it’s still not finished and it’s been 7 hours

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-02-17, version 1.6*

Paid $4.99 and wouldn’t process video

### 1/5 — Horrible and not worth the money.

*2023-12-25, version 1.5*

Just did the upgrade for a 30 second video. 
Do not waste your money. The quality was horrible.

### 1/5 — Not free

*2023-12-16, version 1.5*

No point of downloading

### 4/5 — Artist

*2023-11-07*

Very simple and concise. It produces improvements to the images I submit.

### 1/5 — Ridiculous Payment

*2023-09-25, version 1.3.1*

You have to pay by the second to enhance the quality + No free trial or preview, seems scammy

= Instant delete.

### 1/5 — Horrible app scam

*2023-09-20, version 1.3.1*

They trick you into believing is ¢.17 per video when in reality they charge you more per sec.

### 1/5 — Reduction in frame rate

*2023-09-18*

Well, it did someone enhance the quality, but it completely reduces the frame rate of your video complete trash waste of money stay far away from it! Do not waste your money!

### 1/5 — quality

*2026-04-04, version 1.6*

the quality on the video “beautification” sucks cock

### 1/5 — Scam !!

*2025-12-03, version 1.6*

I downloaded this app only to use it to enhance a video and charged my $7.99 with the quality of the video being 3 times worse then what it was. Now I’ve canceled the subscription but they keep billing me even though I’ve deactivated the account and canceled the subscription. Stay away!

### 1/5 — too expensive

*2025-05-09, version 1.6*

Need pay pro card and only get 1 second for each pro card should be 1 minute, you have to purchase a lot

### 1/5 — Poor video enhancing- fake looking faces

*2025-03-20, version 1.6*

I used this on some reasonable black and white old video. It over sharpened many faces to look like weird masks, it didn’t however remove the obvious hairs / scratches at all. Wasted £10 for 1 minute restoration. Would like money back… doesn’t even give free trial to test it. Avoid!

### 1/5 — Your application is very bad

*2024-09-12, version 1.6*

The idea of each application in its beginnings is in
Some uses are free
That's very, very bad

### 1/5 — Nope

*2024-09-05, version 1.6*

This app is so overpriced that it’s almost criminal. It would be amusing if it weren’t so frustrating. You offer users a week of the free trial, then restrict their experience after just 10 minutes. Do you expect them to pay $6.99 to $49.99 for this?

Seriously? Before even completing the week, you think this experience will convince users to pay? Without knowing if the app’s features are even remotely worth it? That’s a fantastic business model! #Sarcasm

What they don’t tell users upfront is that their “pro” tier is merely a gimmick to entice you to sign up. Once you subscribe, you might expect access to all their features, but that’s only for 10 minutes a week. Your first week, which also includes your entire free trial, allows you to upscale only 10 minutes total.

Now, let’s discuss another hidden aspect: the maximum length of your video clip. I’ve only been able to use two features before they removed the “pro” features. The restoration feature, specifically the AI part, allows you to upscale videos that are 59 seconds long. They claim it can do 1 minute, but every 1-minute clip I tried said it was too long. So, you can only upscale 10 59-second videos over the 7-day period.

Once you reach that limit, they count even the poorly upscaled videos against your 10 minutes. If you’ve reached the 10-minute marker, you’re either done until next week or you can pay to continue. You’ll need 3 tokens for every 59 seconds of video.

How much are tokens? There are several different token packs you can purchase, but the cheapest one costs $2.99 and that will give you 5 tokens. So, enough for 59 seconds with 2 tokens to spare, but you’ll need to buy more if you want to use the remaining two. Nice move, you make it so the customer has to keep spending money to avoid wasting money. Classy.

What’s also not made clear is that it’s not just AI that has limitations. Even their general upscaling, which utilizes your phone’s resources and doesn’t significantly improve the quality, merely alters the image’s color and focus, blurring some areas and sharpening others. This isn’t their cloud-based AI; it’s your phone’s hardware and software.

So, if the 1-week trial reflects what their app offers, you’ll only get 10 minutes of usage per week. However, this isn’t 10 minutes for each feature; it’s 10 minutes for all features combined. Now, I may be being frugal or overly cautious, but the idea of spending 40 minutes a month upscaling videos that are only 1 minute long seems more like the free tier than the premium tier. Nevertheless, I suppose if they assume you’re only interested in upscaling 59-second-long videos, they assume your expectations aren’t very high. Of course, there’s a chance you’ll receive even more once you start paying for the app, but it’s unlikely. I’m not willing to pay $6.99 or $49.99 just to find out.

It’s unfortunate that they don’t clearly state what the free 7-day trial actually entails or even what the monthly subscription entails. If you’re holding out hope that you’ll get more once you’ve paid their exorbitant asking price, consider what they’ve given thus far. I doubt the app developer is going to give much more, as they’ve already demonstrated their intention to maximize profits while minimizing offerings.

### 1/5 — Nothing changed
