Pas mal de ratés également. **Developer response:** Merci pour votre retour, et désolés que le système de crédits n'ait pas été clair de votre côté. L'abonnement débloque toutes les fonctionnalités premium, et la génération utilise des crédits car chaque image ou vidéo IA a un coût d'infrastructure réel — c'est le modèle standard des apps d'IA générative, et nous travaillons à garder une allocation aussi généreuse que possible. Concernant les ratés, l'IA peut encore produire des résultats irréguliers, mais cela s'améliore en continu à chaque mise à jour. N'hésitez pas à nous écrire via le chat dans l'app ou à support@idecapps.com, on s'en occupe personnellement ! ### 1/5 — Terrible App *2026-06-10, version 1.4.2* All the features of this app cost money. They bait you in by generating a picture of your vehicle in an unrealistic background. ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2026-06-09* This application does not accurately represent my vehicle. The headlights are consistently depicted as belonging to previous model years rather than my own. Additionally, the taillights appear strange and weird in the anime initial D video of the car. Furthermore, I am not satisfied with the pricing model. If a user discontinues their service, why not offer the most economical rates initially? Additionally, providing a complimentary trial period would be beneficial, as I was unable to render a picture until I subscribed. This situation has left me feeling deceived. **Developer response:** Thanks for the detailed feedback. On accuracy — the headlights showing as older model years and the taillights looking off in your Initial D video are exactly the kind of details we're working to get right. AI can still produce inconsistencies, but it genuinely improves with every update as we integrate the latest models. On the trial: we used to offer one but had to remove it due to widespread abuse that drove up our AI costs, and we're working to bring it back sustainably. We're sorry you felt deceived — that's the last thing we want. Reach out via the in-app chat or at support@idecapps.com and we'll do our best to make it right! ### 2/5 — Subie Love *2026-06-08, version 1.4.2* On several saves you are not using my 2006 WRX Yellow Licence plate not my White My wheels White not Bronze. I don’t have a STI Spoiler. ### 1/5 — Unable to use app *2026-06-07, version 1.4.2* Unable to use app, wouldn’t allow me to download what I created. Reached out to support, no help. Requested refund in less than 1 hour of trying to use app. No response. So I just got ripped off for an annual subscription that I can’t use, not happy!! ### 4/5 — 👍👍👍 *2026-06-06, version 1.4.2* 👍👍👍 ### 2/5 — Not accurate *2026-06-05, version 1.4.2* Cool concept but not accurate. Images don’t reflect reality of the subject photo. ### 3/5 — Deceptive *2026-06-04, version 1.4.2* Doesn’t produce as advertised. Based on points and way too expensive ### 5/5 — THIS APP IS 🔥 *2026-06-04, version 1.4.2* Needed something fresh for content of my newest vehicle edition. This app solved all of my dilemmas! Straight fire 🔥 ### 3/5 — Cancel anytime is a lie *2026-06-03* I thought I was gonna get a trial instead they charge you the $63 right upfront and it's not like you can cancel any time because you've purchased a subscription for a year. So now I'm fighting for a refund for something I thought I was just going to have a trial. The animations are not what you see on this at all they're not very good. **Developer response:** Hey there! You can cancel your subscription at any given time and we'll be glad to help you if you contact us through the in-app support chat or at support@idecapps.com. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — 金をドブに捨てます *2026-09-13* 複数枚の写真をあげてもまったく違う車の動画が完成します **Developer response:** フィードバックありがとうございます。Driftshotでは最新のAIモデルを常に導入し、車の再現精度の向上に継続的に取り組んでいます。AIにはまだ細部の不一致が生じることがありますが、これはアップデートのたびに改善されていく部分です。お車の具体的な問題があれば、アプリ内チャットからお気軽にご連絡ください。できる限りサポートさせていただきます！ ### 1/5 — What a waste of time. *2026-09-10* Rubbish. Not free. You can do what this app does from free on ai apps like chat gpt **Developer response:** Thanks for the honest feedback, and we're sorry it felt like a waste of your time. We get wanting to try an app for free first — we did offer a free trial in the past, but had to pull it after repeated abuse pushed our AI generation costs too high, and we're looking for a sustainable way to bring it back. As for ChatGPT, general-purpose AI tools are great for lots of things, but Driftshot is built specifically for car photography: curated templates, car-optimised prompts and custom training adapted to your own car. That focus is what makes the difference in quality and consistency. If you'd like to give it a proper go, message us via the in-app chat or at support@idecapps.com and we'll find a way to let you try it! ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time *2026-09-05, version 1.4.4* Unless you’re looking to change the background in a picture or the color of your car, don’t bother. Looking to make real edits; widen the body, wider axles, taller tires, changing body lines. Go elsewhere ### 1/5 — Vorsicht abzocke! 🚨 ⚠️ *2026-08-08* Eigentlich eine sehr gute App und ich hatte am 30.07.26 den Pro Pack mit 300 Kredits gekauft. Zwei bis drei Tage danach also nach einem App-Update hatte ich keine Credits mehr und ich werde gezwungen ein Abo abzuschließen. Käufe wiederherstellen erfolglos, angeblich keine Käufe gefunden. Schade wirklich… **Developer response:** Vielen Dank für Ihre Rückmeldung, und es tut uns leid, dass Ihre Erfahrung so verlaufen ist. Alles rund um Ihren Kauf und die Wiederherstellung sehen wir uns gerne direkt für Sie an — bitte schreiben Sie uns über den Live-Chat in der App oder an support@idecapps.com, idealerweise mit dem Kaufdatum und Ihrer Apple-Belegnummer. Wir sind ein kleines Team von zwei Personen und beantworten jede Nachricht persönlich — melden Sie sich bei uns, und wir kümmern uns darum! ### 1/5 — Take back my original 5 star review *2026-07-30* You would think since it’s Ai it wouldn’t be charging you since no one is actually making the videos or pictures, But 60 a year for some Ai generated videos and pictures? 😂 man just go ahead and use chat gpt its insane how they want to Tax you for work they aren’t doing, useless app should put it in big letter on your Ads “Must pay to use” Crazy work guys 😂. **Developer response:** Thanks for coming back to share this, even if it wasn't the update we were hoping for. On the cost side: every AI image and video has a real infrastructure cost behind it, and that's what the subscription covers — the models don't run for free on our end. We do hear you on wanting to try things before paying, though. We actually offered a free trial in the past and had to pull it after heavy abuse, and we're working on a sustainable way to bring it back. As for the ChatGPT comparison, we get it — general-purpose tools are great, but Driftshot is built specifically for automotive photography: curated templates, car-optimized prompts, and custom training adapted to your own car. If you want to talk through your options, reach out via the in-app chat or at support@idecapps.com and we'll take care of it! ### 1/5 — 高額プランへの悪質な誘導 *2026-07-24* 年5000円　プランは月額600円台いつでも辞めれますと表示されますが1年丸々契約となります。app契約画面には他プランの掲載もありますがアプリ内にはありません。 非常に悪質な誘導法です。 車も勝手に変換されてあべこべです。おすすめしません。 **Developer response:** ご意見をお寄せいただきありがとうございます。料金の表示が分かりにくいと感じさせてしまったこと、申し訳なく思っております。年間プランの月あたり表示は実際の合計金額に基づいて換算したもので、誤解を招く意図は決してございません。いただいたご指摘を参考に、より分かりやすい表示を目指して改善を続けてまいります。また、お車の再現度については、常に最新のAIモデルを取り入れながら継続的に精度を高めており、今後のアップデートでさらなる向上をご期待いただけます。ご不明な点やお困りのことがございましたら、アプリ内チャットまたは support@idecapps.com までお気軽にご連絡ください。2人の小さなチームですが、一つひとつ丁寧に対応いたします! ### 1/5 — "Free" *2026-07-03* Free App that you cant use without a mandatory subscription is a scam to show more downloads on the app store page, this is a joke and needs to be stopped, make your app 10-20-30€ i dont care if its good im buying it, but hiding a mandatory subscription in a "free" app is a joke sorry **Developer response:** Thanks for taking the time to write this. We understand wanting to try the app before committing — we actually offered a free trial in the past, but had to remove it due to widespread abuse that was driving up our AI infrastructure costs significantly, and we're working on finding a sustainable way to bring it back. We're not trying to hide anything with the subscription — it's there so we can keep improving the AI models. If you'd like to give it a proper try, reach out via the in-app chat or at support@idecapps.com and we'll find a way to help you out! ### 1/5 — Terrible app , lol *2026-06-29, version 1.4.3* First off you must pay either $30 a month to try it, or outright pay for the full year at $60 that doesn’t make much sense , and all for photos and videos your simple google Gemini could make for you , for free, this app and it’s developers are money hungry , nothing more , on to the next ! ### 1/5 — SHADY MARKETING-Scam *2026-06-28* Buyers’ beware I purchased the yearly plan. While purchasing they are bombarding you with pop up options and “special” pricing. There are components you cannot use at all. I was under the impression that I would have credits to use every month. After the initial credits ran out I contacted chat support and they said wait and it renews monthly. Well now months later and no new credits I was told in the chat that I will not be getting any more credits at all. I can get more at the renewal of my subscription. Then proceeded to explain to me that it’s a business and condescendingly sent me the link to the Apple refund center. I canceled the renewal and closed the chat. I will not waist one more minute on a shady company. **Developer response:** We're genuinely sorry this left you with such a bad impression — that's the last thing we want for anyone using Driftshot. To clarify how it works: a PRO subscription unlocks all premium features, and generation uses credits because each AI image and video carries a real infrastructure cost. Those credits renew with your billing cycle, and we always work to keep that allowance as generous as possible — there's no intent to hide anything. We're also sorry the chat felt dismissive; we're a team of two who personally handle every conversation, and leaving you feeling that way is not who we are. If you're willing, please reach back out through the in-app chat or at support@idecapps.com and we'll personally look into your account and do our best to make it right. ### 1/5 — What did I pay for? *2026-06-19, version 1.4.3* Got a Pro subscription and can’t do anything with it. There are no credits on my account and an email to customer service got returned as undeliverable. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Zero Support / Unauthorized Charge *2026-09-02, version 1.4.4* Scam alert, will false advertise and bill for year.
