### 2/5 — Meh

*2026-08-30*

It’s an alright app. Pretty sure there’s better out there for the price. Also super annoying that every time I go to use the paid for features I have to ‘restore purchase’.

### 5/5 — Effective

*2026-08-28*

Tried it with a few videos with multiple people in them. It did the job

**Developer response:** Hello skynonym, thanks for putting our app to the test! It’s great to know it did exactly what you needed. We're constantly working to make our AI even faster and more precise, so stay tuned for future updates!

### 5/5 — J’adore

*2026-08-25*

J’adore, dommage qu’il y et autant de pub

**Developer response:** Bonjour,

Merci beaucoup pour vos 5 étoiles et votre retour positif ! Nous sommes vraiment ravis que l'application vous plaise.

Les publicités nous permettent de continuer à proposer et améliorer l'application gratuitement pour tout le monde. Cependant, nous comprenons tout à fait que cela puisse être gênant. Si vous souhaitez une expérience plus fluide et sans aucune interruption, n'hésitez pas à découvrir notre version Premium qui supprime toutes les publicités.

Merci encore pour votre soutien !

### 1/5 — Scammer’s Unauthorized Charges

*2026-08-12*

False advertising. Shows 3 days free. I cancelled on the same day and was charged for 1 year.

**Developer response:** Hello. We completely understand your anger, but please let us explain. We are absolutely not scammers. All billing, charges, and free trials are securely processed and controlled entirely by Apple, not us. We cannot physically charge your account.
If you were charged immediately, it is usually a glitch in Apple's billing system or because a free trial was previously used on your Apple ID. Since we cannot issue refunds on our end, please contact Apple Support directly to request a full refund. They will assist you right away!

### 1/5 — ARNAQUE

*2026-08-11*

une honte !!! je ne sais pas comment on peut oser faire ça!! il y a un abonnement proposé pour tester le floutage pendant 3j gratuit et si on ne résilie pas 35€ par an!!!! ceci est bien indiqué sur l’app à plusieurs reprises!!! dès que j’ai voulu tester les 3j gratuits ça m’a directement prélevé !!! en tant qu’étudiante je n’ai pas envie de devoir payer 35€ de force à cause de mensonges!! arnaqueurs et voleurs, aucun moyen de contact

**Developer response:** Bonjour,
Nous sommes sincèrement désolés pour cette mauvaise expérience et nous comprenons parfaitement votre frustration.
Nous tenons à vous rassurer : il ne s'agit absolument pas d'une arnaque. Le prélèvement immédiat a été causé par un bug technique dû à une connexion internet instable au moment exact de la validation, ce qui a empêché l'activation de la période d'essai. Ce problème est désormais totalement corrigé dans notre dernière mise à jour.
Étant donné que toutes les transactions sont gérées exclusivement par Apple, nous vous invitons à contacter directement l'assistance Apple (Apple Support) pour demander le remboursement de cet abonnement.
Pour toute autre question, n'hésitez pas à nous contacter via le bouton d'assistance de l'application sur l'App Store. Encore toutes nos excuses pour ce désagrément technique !

### 5/5 — très bonne application

*2026-07-13*

juste les prix un peux élevé mais pour la première fois on a une pub pour que se soit gratuit

**Developer response:** Bonjour CraftyKenzopro ! Merci beaucoup pour votre retour. Le développement de notre technologie d'IA demande beaucoup d'efforts, ce qui explique nos tarifs d'abonnement. Cependant, c'est exactement pour cela que nous avons ajouté l'option de la publicité : nous voulons que tout le monde puisse profiter de l'application gratuitement quand ils en ont besoin. Profitez-en bien !
