### 2/5 — Review

*2026-07-21*

Not crazy about it, limited choices, other than that pretty good.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your honest feedback, Zoey. I understand it’s frustrating to feel limited by the current choices. We’re always adding new styles and features. Please reach us via the in-app “Contact Us” so we can learn what options you’d like. Best, Photo AI Support

### 2/5 — It’s ok

*2026-07-12*

The app it’s self isn’t bad, pretty expensive, and they say they give you a 3 day free trial, but you have to pick your subscription choice, THEN THEY CHARGE YOU FOR THE WHOLE SUBSCRIPTION RIGHT THEN, NOT AFTER 3 DAYS.

**Developer response:** Thanks for telling us this, that sounds really frustrating and we’re sorry for the confusion with the 3‑day trial and charges. We want to check what happened with your subscription and help. Please contact us via the in‑app “Contact Us” with your purchase date. Best regards, Photo AI Support.

### 2/5 — Worked until it didn’t

*2026-06-20*

Worked until it didn’t. Paid for a weekly subscription but after using it for one day, all i get is a failed error - due to network traffic or limit even with available coins.

**Developer response:** Thanks for explaining what’s happening, that failed error after paying for a weekly subscription must be really frustrating. We’d like to fix this quickly. Please contact us via the in-app “Contact Us” with your Apple ID and a screenshot of the error. Best regards, Photo AI Support.

### 2/5 — Makes you buy coins after you subscribe and create a few cartoons

*2026-05-09*

This is very frustrating.

**Developer response:** I’m really sorry for the frustration with needing coins even after subscribing and creating a few cartoons. We want the pricing to feel clear and fair. Please contact us via the in-app “Contact Us” so we can review your account and help. Best regards, Photo AI Support.

### 2/5 — Gut, aber teuer

*2026-03-31*

Trotz Abo, muss man Münzen kaufen? Das verstehe ich nicht?

### 2/5 — Amusing

*2026-03-12*

The photos come out great, but it would be nice to be able to to earn the tokens in some way. Ev n watching ads for them. Paying for a subscription and then only being able to generate a few pictures before you run out is beyond silly.

### 1/5 — Nur mit Abo

*2025-12-30*

Leider kann man keine Bilder ohne Abo generieren

### 1/5 — Awfully poor resemblance to the original. Poor app.

*2025-12-23*

I was looking for an Al app which would help me to make a story book for my grandchildren using photos. 
This app is not capable for capturing what I wanted to accomplish. What I wanted was something closer to the original photos.
When I tested it,it was awful and a totally different character. I was so disappointed. So I wanted to cancel the trial subscription right away, but to add insult to injury. There was no way to cancel and get a refund.

### 1/5 — Unfortunately not good

*2025-12-17*

Unresponsive

### 1/5 — Subito a chiedere soldi

*2025-12-06, version 5.0*

Ti chiede subito di pagare ancor prima di fare la prova gratuita. Pessima!

### 1/5 — Scam, don’t download!

*2025-12-06, version 5.0*

Don’t download! They offer a FREE 3 day trial period before the subscription fee yet they charge you the full amount before you even start the trial period. Complete scam!!!

### 1/5 — Одразу списали гроші без пробного періоду

*2025-12-02, version 5.0*

Вчора ввечері скачала програму. Мав бути пробний безкоштовний період 3 дні. А списали одразу всі гроші за рік. Мені програма не підійшла, хочу отримати компенсацію.

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2025-11-28*

Takes forever and the “different” types of cartoon designs are pretty much the same. They charge you for a full year instead of monthly or weekly. Very sneaky.

### 1/5 — Achat non cagnotté

*2025-11-27*

J’ai payé 9,99 pour avoir accès à un nombre de photo AI. Rien n’a été cagnotté sur mon application et pourtant déduit de mon compte…

### 1/5 — Scam?

*2025-11-23*

I paid $14 to get coins and never got them.

### 1/5 — Falso

*2025-11-22, version 5.0*

Dicen dar una prueba gratis de 3 días pero no te permiten usar nada sin pagar monedas

Absolument nul

**Developer response:** Merci pour votre retour, nous sommes désolés que Photo AI vous paraisse « absolument nul ». Nous voulons vraiment comprendre ce qui ne va pas. Pouvez-vous nous écrire via la rubrique « Contactez-nous » dans l’app avec un exemple précis ? Merci, l’équipe Photo AI.

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2026-06-27*

I tried their free app. I forgot to cancel until after the date expired.  I always cancel my apps in time. I was charged $100 on my debt card which I couldn’t afford and when I tried to get a refund as soon as I saw the charge Apple refused and so I tried contacting this app customer service 3 times and they never responded once about getting a refund.  Terrible customer service. I didn’t even like the app.  I thought it was lame use of AI and now I’m stuck paying $100 for app I don’t even use.  I would appreciate a refund but can’t even get a response back

**Developer response:** We’re really sorry about the unexpected $100 charge and that you didn’t get a reply before, that’s very frustrating. We want to review this properly. Please contact us again via the in-app “Contact Us” with your Apple receipt so we can check your case. Best regards, Photo AI Support.

### 1/5 — SCAM!

*2026-06-20*

I opted for the 3 day “free” trial, they charged me 23 dollars and couldn’t even edit my photo!! DO NOT DOWNLOAD

**Developer response:** I’m really sorry for the unexpected $23 charge and that your photo couldn’t be edited, that’s very frustrating. We want to fix this quickly. Please contact us via the in-app “Contact Us” so we can check your subscription and troubleshoot. Best regards, Photo AI Support.

### 1/5 — Trop forcer-à-payer

*2026-06-07*

Tu ne peux même pas faire une seule image sans avoir à payer. Pas très pratique.

**Developer response:** Merci pour votre retour, c’est frustrant de ne pas pouvoir tester l’app comme vous le souhaitez. Nous travaillons à mieux équilibrer les fonctions gratuites et payantes. Pour partager vos attentes, écrivez-nous via « Contact Us » dans l’app. Merci, l’équipe Photo AI.

### 1/5 — free 3 day trial

*2026-04-04*

it says free 3 day trial, but it changed to $99 a year and directed me to pay and removed free 3 day trial all of sudden. this is absolutely insane and now it charged me $99 and i am super disappointed under high fuel price i wont purchase an app costs $99 , i just meant to try free 3 day trial please refund to me

### 1/5 — Was excited...but...

*2026-03-12*

So I tried this, went for the 3 day trial and then the year long pro for $99. It worked great for the first half dozen or so pics. Then I ran out of "coins", so I bought $20 of more "coins" and every image I tried to do then came up as FAILED.  I quickly determined that if I got this many fails, then an annual subscription would be a waste

### 1/5 — Aus 3 Tage Probe wurde sofort 1 Jahres Abo!!!

*2026-02-24*

Aus einem 3 Tage Probe wurde sofort 1 Jahres Abo-Vorsicht ABZOCKE

### 1/5 — Não deu pra usar

*2026-01-18*

Poxa nem um teste liberado, não quero ter que (assinar) mesmo com o período gratuito e me esquecer de cancelar… Queria apenas testar e não foi possível

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-01-02, version 5.0*

### 5/5 — Best Cartoon app

*2025-07-09*

After downloading a substantial amount of cartooning apps, I have found this one to be quite astounding! Other apps you have to edit Your background for them to just give you a mere filter. This app actually takes the time to Give you a realistic affect while completely upgrading your background. It will take your ordinary pitch to an extreme confidence booster. I literally can keep going. I am more than pleased with the app.

### 5/5 — Ghibli style photos

*2025-05-22*

Good for Ghibli studio cartoon editor

### 3/5 — Ok at best.

*2025-08-23*

It instantly requires a purchase or subscription in order to do anything.    It also randomly adds backgrounds etc at its own leisure.   Once I use the credits I have, I’ll be deleting it.    Thanks anyhow!
