I can’t unsubscribe from my subscription. Please help. I want to cancel my subscription and delete this app. ### 1/5 — Can’t use with Mount subscription *2024-03-21, version 3.10* A subscription to remove backgrounds from a photo. Can’t believe they’re getting away with this. 🤣😖 ### 1/5 — Scam *2024-02-16, version 3.09* Doesn’t work properly and when I tried to cancel the free trial it still charged me £40! £40 which I can’t afford it’s taken me into an overdraft and won’t give a refund! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work. Don’t buy *2024-02-04, version 3.09* This doesn’t work. The app doesn’t deliver what their videos claim - by far. Don’t buy!! ### 1/5 — awful *2024-01-13, version 3.07* terrible ### 1/5 — Creepy app and doesn’t work as advertised. *2024-01-01, version 3.07* One should not buy such app, moreover this is not free. ### 4/5 — Use like a Green Screen! *2023-12-28, version 3.07* Able to download any background to make any photo have any backdrop, really like the flexibility of it. Would be perfect if there were more options so I wouldn’t need to find bakcgrounds ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work and charged immediately *2023-11-26, version 3.04* This app, after 4 minutes of “processing” time per photo, does not correctly detect the backgrounds of my photos. Ever. And I cannot correct them. They also immediately charged me for a full year subscription instead of the 3 day free trial. I am unable to obtain a refund. So I have a background removal app for $36 for the next year that doesn’t work. Don’t bother with this app. ### 1/5 — Error After Subscription Purchase *2023-11-11, version 3.04* After I paid for the subscription, it would no longer edit my pictures. It kept coming up with an error message. I canceled the subscription and went with a different app. ### 1/5 — Subscription required *2023-10-29, version 3.01* not free, doesn’t work that well ### 1/5 — HONK! *2023-10-24, version 2.14* Don’t buy this as it’s a load of old HONK! There, I’ve said it! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Subscription Trap *2026-02-02, version 3.20* Don’t waste your time with this app. It asks for a $5.99 subscription as soon as you try to use it. No “free with ads” tools at all. Very tired of these apps being able to advertise as free without disclosing this information. ### 1/5 — Scam *2025-11-21, version 3.20* Scam ### 1/5 — Can’t get help *2025-07-12, version 3.18* Can not figure out how to cancel, and can not get anyone to respond to my emails ### 1/5 — Don’t like it *2025-07-08, version 3.18* It doesn’t remove the whole background! ### 1/5 — Do not get get something else *2025-06-23, version 3.18* This is so bad the second you download they force you to use a free trial then like 6 bucks a month it doesn’t even do its job for free ### 1/5 — Non-Existent Customer Service *2025-03-04, version 3.16* I have written to customer service for this app three times and have received absolutely no response. Please do not waste your money on this, at best, mediocre product, whose owners do not respond to any requests for information or help. ### 1/5 — Charges to use the app. Fails to advertise. Avoid. *2024-12-28, version 3.15* Avoid. ### 1/5 — Did not work *2024-12-05, version 3.15* I tried this because the reviews were so good, however, it did about as good of a job as I did manually erasing the background. Complete waste of money. ### 1/5 — Trash. *2024-08-25, version 3.15* Mostly everything costs money, don’t bother the quality is not worth the money spent ### 1/5 — Taken money for a free trial?? *2024-05-03, version 3.12* Don’t download this app. It said there would be a 3 day free trial, and it’s immediately taken money from me. Ridiculous. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Very effective cost worthy tool *2025-11-05, version 3.20* Exemplary technology to ease in taking photos. Very effective cost worthy tool ### 5/5 — Awesome *2025-07-08, version 3.18* But…… I need easier access to a block of photos. I have to keep scrolling ### 5/5 — Just the App I Need *2025-03-18, version 3.16* I found the right app fi-na-on ### 5/5 — User friendly *2024-11-10, version 3.15* Hit remove background and it removes the background to color of choice. No need to know special buttons like Canva and Adobe. Straight forward save and very affordable. ### 5/5 — Very effective cost worthy tool *2024-10-07* Very effective cost worthy tool ### 5/5 — 🏅😍 *2024-08-09, version 3.15* Exactly what I needed at half the price of other apps, thanks ### 5/5 — Love BR *2024-04-24, version 3.12* This app rocks! ### 5/5 — Awesome *2024-03-21, version 3.10* Awesome ### 5/5 — Good stuff works with everything I’ve tried *2023-10-23, version 2.14* The only thing that would be better is if they added a sensitivity slider for the background remover ### 5/5 — The background look so good *2023-10-11, version 2.14* It completely removes u from the picture and erasing the whole background. I love it. There is a price you do have to pay. It’s a not that much. But it’s worth it. If you don’t wanna pay just take the other route but it’ll be a little harder to erase the background. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
