### 5/5 — Incrível e prático

*2026-05-22*

Eu realmente gostei muito pela praticidade e rapidez! O próprio app já reconhece sozinho o fundo e então fornece dezenas de opções novas. Excelente!

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2025-04-29*

Alot of apps are fraud this one is a real one

### 2/5 — Angepasste Rezession

*2024-11-04*

Tatsächlich ist die Vorschau nach dem speichern sichtbar. Irreführend war hier die Tatsache, dass kein Playzeichen auf dem bearbeiteten Video erkennbar ist. Leider erfasst die App nur einen eindeutigen farblich gut vom Hintergrund abgegrenzten Körper gut. Feinheiten in den Haaren oder Absätze an den Schuhen werden nicht erkannt und dementsprechend mit entfernt. Eine Nachbearbeitung ist leider  nicht möglich. Ob dies in der bezahlten Version möglich ist, entzieht sich meiner Kenntnis. Eine Größenanpassung des ausgeschnittenen Objekts ist ebenfalls nicht möglich. Der neu eingefügte Hintergrund kann ebenfalls nicht angepasst oder verschoben werden. Die meisten Apps sind hier sehr viel weiter. Schade

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank für Ihre Bewertung.Das bearbeitete Video kann vor dem Speichern angesehen werden (der Videobearbeitungsprozess wird nach dem Drücken der Schaltfläche "Speichern" in der oberen rechten Ecke ausgeführt, und das bearbeitete Video kann auch in der kostenlosen Version angesehen werden).
