### 3/5 — One Problem

*2025-03-24*

It’s a great idea with a lot of potential. But there’s one major problem: at least on an iPhone, you cannot move the two human models relative to each other! I can move added objects around, I can pose the two models, but I absolutely cannot figure out how to make them face each other or exist in any other relation to each other than the one that appears by default.

### 3/5 — New Maj ? When ?

*2024-12-28*

Hello developers, you have created an excellent application. But this application dates back a while. The ergonomics is too old. It lacks a lot of features. I have the impression that there is no more tracking on this application. Too bad because it offers beautiful things.

### 4/5 — 脑抽买了套装版本 pro包括了另外两个

*2024-10-03*

只买pro就可以了…没有中文还在摸索使用方式

### 2/5 — Suggestion

*2024-07-28, version 2.53*

I’ve had the app for a few years and it’s been great just wish the updates would include some other models and background building things

### 3/5 — 근육 위치가 좀

*2024-06-10*

후면에 경부 뼈가 좀 아래에 있는 것 같아요.

### 4/5 — 追加して欲しい機能

*2024-06-07*

もう何年もアートポーズにはお世話になってます。追加して欲しい機能があり、髪の毛の豊富さ、キャラを豊富に年齢を子供からおじいちゃんおばぁちゃんまで。重くなってもいいので複数人の投入(100名)ぐらいまで。
街や小物を導入して一つの街の区画の世界観を作り出せるぐらいの柔軟性(Nvidia geforce4070推奨)とかでもいいので、そして
操作性をもう少し良く。。、顔のズームにするときにもうちゃんと寄れるようにして欲しいところですかね。

### 4/5 — A reference tool mostly for comic book artists

*2024-03-05, version 2.53*

Very solid posing tool, easy to pose with and lots of unique props to place in your scene. As the models have very superhero-like proportions, this app probably suits comic book artists the most. Some options to pose the hands would be useful, you’ve only got a bunch of about 12 presets to choose from for the hands and no way to customise them. But overall a lot to like about Art Pose Pro.

### 3/5 — Needs Better Controls

*2023-11-23*

This app is phenomenal, but it is not user friendly. Honestly, the movement controls are complicated for no reason. It would be much better to just have an X/Y/Z axis wheel to move the joints instead of this weird 1,2, left, left, right, one finger, two finger stuff. It makes posing way too tedious for no reason.

### 4/5 — Most realistic movement and anatomy reference so far

*2023-08-11, version 2.53*

Pros: This is absolutely fantastic if your wanting to draw or sculpt characters. For example if you were to bend your forearm in real life, your bicep muscle would begin to bulge. Or if you raise you arm above your head your chest muscle would stretch. This is possible within this app, it not only allows realistic poses but realistic muscle stretching and movement within those poses. You have an array of objects like weapons and environmental and default poses to use and your scene which is great for telling stories. your default character either male or female can be altered through size and body mass from skinny to bulky, so your getting a reasonable amount of customisation. Even default hair and facial hair options as well as hand poses. Even able to see the muscle anatomy options for better understanding of the body. 

 Cons: While this is the most realistic reference I believe available on the AppStore, It does have some limitations. You can only have 2 characters on screen and no more. It would be fantastic to have as many as possible to fill a scene. It would be great if it had fully customisable hands and finger’s instead of just default hand poses. Would love a more advanced lighting effects then just two light sources perhaps even changing the colour of objects and characters to see how to light reacts to said colours Controls do feel a bit odd to use compared to other reference apps which feels most natural and easier.

### 4/5 — Great, but with much more possible!

*2023-03-25, version 2.53*

So many great suggestions are in these reviews. Please take a look and add them!

### 4/5 — Gut,aber

*2022-11-13*

Wenn die Posen,die in der Auswahl sind,nummeriert wären und man mehr Personen in eine Szene stellen könnte,wäre gut.

### 3/5 — 操作が難しい...😥

*2022-10-21*

筋肉や関節の正確性は高いのですが、操作が無料のポーズアプリよりもかなり手間がかかる...！
操作方法が独特で思い通りのポーズをつけるのに時間がかかり、便利とは言い難いです。😱
それ以外は完成度の高いアプリなのでもう少し直感的に使えるものでしたら★5つだったのですが...
今のところこれで1000円は高いかもしれません...
あと子供のモデルもいるといいですね！👧🏼👦🏻

### 4/5 — Great for reference needs a grid

*2022-10-18, version 2.53*

It is a great tool for quick reference for angles and perspective, it would be great if it could have a grid option to create a square grid on-top of the view so it is easier to draw.

### 4/5 — Great app!

*2022-07-10, version 2.53*

App is fast and doesn’t heat up the device even when using along other art programs.
Hoping you add thin and fat body types, as this will be so much helpful as well. Or even just the fat body type.
5-star once we have that.

### 3/5 — Needs a gizmo

*2022-06-25*

I use this app for a lot and find it very useful for my work, but it's often difficult to adjust fine details because it's very hard to figure out where a touch motion will actually move the selected joint. This could be easily fixed by the addition of a "gizmo" tool like many other 3d posing apps have. I've found myself avoiding it lately for lack of this tool and am looking for an alternative, but would be happy to return if this could be fixed.

I also have trouble with the presentation of preset poses. The poses themselves are great, but since there's no numbering or naming I frequently get lost when looking for a specific pose.

The UI is... fine. Saving and loading poses is quite esoteric and I'm still not sure how it works.

A decent three out of five.

### 4/5 — Kleidung und Faltenwurf

*2022-06-13*

Es kann mit der App gut gearbeitet werden. Die App ist gut durchdacht. Wenn noch die Figuren mit Kleidung bestückt werden könnten wäre es fast Perfekt.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work on iPad Pro

*2025-11-21, version 2.53*

I used this app on previous iPads and it was ok. Have been trying to get it working on my latest (2024) iPad and now most of the interface doesn’t work. Waste of time and money.

### 1/5 — 환불요청합니다

*2025-04-03*

방금 구입했는데 잘못 구입했습니다.

### 1/5 — Worthless on new iPad Pro

*2025-02-04, version 2.53*

I used this app on previous iPads and it was ok. Have been trying to get it working on my latest (2024) iPad and now most of the interface doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — 使いづらい

*2024-02-16*

他の方も仰ってますが、操作性がめちゃくちゃ悪いです
ただ腕を後ろに回したいだけなのに何故か腕をぐるぐると回転させる必要があります。無駄な動きも非常に多い。
操作する部分も肘なら肘、と一点だけを軸に動き、他の部分は連動しません。
筋肉や関節なんか知ったこっちゃない動きをします。なんなら自分の体にめりこみます。
地面の制限もありません。永遠にめり込みます。
絵の初心者でポーズ用に…筋肉の形を知るために…と買いましたが失敗でした。

### 1/5 — 为什么在手机买了 在电脑不能用得重新买？！而且还更贵

*2023-04-29*

为什么要买俩次？ 不是都通用的吗

### 1/5 — !

*2023-02-09, version 2.53*

Necesita un gizmo urgentemente

### 1/5 — No 3D model export

*2022-06-07*

Other app are providing. All this + 3D object export in half of this price don’t fall for this , no use

### 1/5 — Вроде не плохо, но на самом деле…

*2022-05-25*

Сами модели возможно не плохие, но вот использование их - просто ад. Позы абсолютно не удобно воспроизводить. Нет указания направления света. Слишком маленькое количество присетов для кистей рук. Не удобный интерфейс. Я бы не рекомендовал его покупать. Лучше добавить 400р и купить Magic Poser Pro.

### 1/5 — Très mauvaise ergonomie

*2022-05-02*

Il n’y a pas de cinématique inverse, les positions se font seulement à partir de chaque joint d’articulation. La flexion des jambes est en deçà de ce qu’elle est en réalité donc par exemple la position accroupie n’est pas vraiment accessible. Le mode pose et le mode caméra sont dissociés ce qui ajoute à la lourdeur des manipulations. 
Si j’avais pu l’essayer je n’aurais pas acheté cette application.

### 1/5 — 真的，气死我了

*2022-04-19*

再回来给个差评，不如直接买个素体，真的属于是骗一个算一个的软件

### 5/5 — All in one

*2025-09-07, version 2.53*

I’ve been using this for 5 years — it’s incredibly helpful and versatile when it comes to poses, props, and lighting. You can even swap genders and add variations like different hairstyles and beards. Definitely worth it.

### 5/5 — Great! Please add more stuff and props 🙏🙏🙏

*2025-07-25, version 2.53*

I’ve been using this for years now! Overall It’s been great and it really helped me with my art. But I’d really appreciate it if can you add more props, accessories, and new poses! Thanks!!!

### 5/5 — ポージングにおいて最高のアプリです

*2024-06-01*

ポージングの細かな調整が可能で非常に重宝しています！
いつもはポーズのトレースなどを主な使用用途にしているのですが、アプリ内で撮影した画像は直接商用利用しても可能なのでしょうか？
よろしければお返事お願いします。

### 5/5 — Cambiar dispositivo

*2024-04-23, version 2.53*

Me encanta la aplicación! 
Muy buena! 
Lo unico! No habría una manera de pasar las figuras guardadas entre dispositivos?

### 5/5 — カメラ視点が重宝

*2023-11-01, version 2.53*

キャラクターイラスト描いてるんですがポージングも勿論有用性ありますが何と言っても良く使えるのはカメラ。360度カメラをグリグリ動かせるのでここぞといった構図を捉える事が出来ます。保存は20個まで。ポージングをさせるのに関節動かすのが難しいのが難点？男女素体あるので良い。

### 5/5 — I like this app, 1 suggestion

*2023-08-26*

It’s very useful and the pre made poses are nice. I know it hasn’t been updated in a while but could there be an option to extend the perspective grid to the horizon line instead of having it only visible within a limited area?

### 5/5 — Urgent Export tô .OBJ plissss

*2023-05-21*

Olá eu comprei a versão pro porém precisamos que possa exportar em .OBJ

### 5/5 — More Fantasy poses please

*2022-07-08*

I love your app, is my favorite, but could you please add more fantasy related poses? Like poses holding sword/magic staff, poses doing magic with hands, poses shooting an arrow.

### 5/5 — 快更新！！！

*2021-10-29*

能不能出可以多几个模特出现的功能？现在只有两个想要三个或者四个的，拜托啦真的很喜欢！！平时捏泥巴捏人的时候全靠这个！！开发者快更新吧！！！

### 5/5 — Decent tool

*2021-09-24, version 2.53*

I was a little sceptical after reading the other reviews but honestly I’m pleasantly surprised with this app. The UI does take a minute to understand but once you’ve had a play around it becomes fairly easy to navigate, however I would suggest maybe adding an option for tooltips or a tutorial for new users instead of the help section, and actual categories for the preset poses ie sitting, standing, etc would be good. Posing the figures does seem a little challenging at first but once you understand how it operates it becomes pretty simple to use, again though an actual tutorial would go a long way.

Overall it’s a good app, I especially like the way the biceps act as they should, hopefully you can add the same functionality to the rest of the muscles. The ability to save poses is great though it would be good if it also saved the camera position. 
The only other things I would like to see is more body shape options, maybe a second slider for fat? And posable hands however I can understand the decision to forgo that and the preset hands work fine anyway.
