### 1/5 — Bought membership for Faceover. Didn’t work multiple times

*2026-07-20, version 4.6.5*

I bought the app and tried using the face swap function. Multiple times with different photos it kept initializing and said “something went wrong”.
I even rebooted my updated iPhone 2 times to make sure it wasn’t the phone.
For something I purchased, this app was at bottom of list. I cancelled immediately during my pre-free 2 day trial though I paid for weekly subscription and just cancelled. Sorry but I was very upset

### 1/5 — Face change

*2026-07-05, version 4.6.3*

Garbage

### 1/5 — What Happened?

*2026-06-26, version 4.6.3*

This app use to be so fun and easy to use now it’s absolutely terrible

### 1/5 — Bad cancellation policy

*2026-06-10, version 4.6.2*

App cancelled but still being billed

### 1/5 — AWFUL NOW

*2026-06-02, version 4.5.1*

Used to be so good, been using for years but this new version DOES NOT WORK

### 1/5 — Sucks

*2026-06-02, version 4.5.1*

Easy to use but time consuming

### 1/5 — Dnt buy

*2026-05-22, version 4.5.1*

10 second video waiting 2 hours still not works

### 1/5 — Worst app on planet earth

*2026-05-09, version 4.5.1*

I miss the old simple version. Just some few things below

1.No button to access free version - forces you to do paid free trial. 

2. Some photos on your cameras roll won’t show up no matter how many times you save it 

3. Finally when ready to make a photo you have to watch a 1 minute unskippable stupid video

4. App crashes randomly 

Lastly if your SOMEHOW able  generate a picture..it comes out garbage

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-05-04, version 4.5.1*

If you try clicking either terms, privacy, or restore it directs you to a scam alert in safari/chrome. You can’t even read the terms before agreeing to the subscription. Scary practice.

### 1/5 — Ruined it

*2026-04-30, version 4.5.1*

This app used to be awesome, I could manually crop my friends’ faces and put them on other pictures to make new funny memes for the group chat but now everything is run by AI and you can’t add any personal touches to it

### 2/5 — Won’t restore

*2026-04-24, version 4.5.1*

Why won’t it restore

### 1/5 — This app is annoying and greedy

*2026-04-20, version 4.5.1*

You have to pay for premium to use the app like you genuinely can’t use the features ONCE it’s horrible and the app is probably ai slop

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-04-17, version 4.5.1*

Makes you pay for trial

### 1/5 — Bad bad bad

*2026-04-13, version 4.5.1*

The pop up ad for premium won’t go away this is a terrible thing and it says it’s FREE yeah right

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2026-04-10, version 4.5.1*

I have used this app for years. It used to be perfect- manually copy a section of a photo and paste it on top of another. It was perfect because of its simplicity. Now it’s literally unusable. Not only is the user interface overly complicated, it’s also crowded with tons of ai garbage. On top of all that, you can’t use it anymore at all- that’s right. Unless you decide to pay $28 a month, the app throws a full screen unskippable paywall up. I’ve used this app for years, I won’t be again.

### 1/5 — Add out of control

*2026-04-10, version 4.5.1*

Can’t seem to get Away

### 1/5 — Trash

*2026-04-09, version 4.5.1*

It doesn’t even load pics correctly from Photos album

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2026-03-31, version 4.5.1*

I’ve been using this app for years and I was loving it. Now they have a screen for “pay for premium” and you can’t use the app anymore without paying for premium. Just bring back the ads, they’re annoying but better than paying for a monthly subscription for an app I use maybe 4 times a year.

### 1/5 — AI interferes

*2026-03-31, version 4.5.1*

Their ai won’t let you build and have the fun you may want to have with a face swap. Then must sign up for a $7 subscription before you can even try

### 1/5 — Used to be good, now its unusable.

*2026-09-04, version 4.6.5*

I quite liked this app for basic photo editing and cropping etc but at some point they added a bunch of AI features that seemingly replaced that.

I could of lived with that however, they then added a hard paywall screen which basically forces you to pay an extortionate monthly fee in order to do ANYTHING at all. Theres not even an option to use basic features and from what Ive been told, the “premium” sub isn’t even a great experience either.

Hard pass, don’t even waste your time

### 1/5 — App just locks up

*2026-08-28, version 4.6.5*

After processing the App just locks up. They got $7.99 out of me for a broke App. This was so much better when used the older version years ago. But hey, Apple gets there cut too. So almost  all apps are a subscription now. $7.99/week to use an App is robbery.

### 1/5 — Free and useful ->expensive useless

*2026-08-27, version 4.6.5*

All this bunch of fancy “functions” Doesn’t even work properly “something went wrong” all the time.  such a simple move as it was before like swap faces now it’s just a pain. And not even free couple of functions. For 7$ per month you can swap faces 24h using chat gpt.

### 1/5 — Premium use only

*2026-08-25, version 4.6.5*

Couldn’t even use without it asking to upgrade to premium

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-08-06, version 4.6.5*

Don’t waste your time.

### 1/5 — unusable

*2026-08-05, version 4.6.5*

should’ve just made the app cost money if you’re just going to make it need a subscription to even use it no X symbol to get out u literally need to try the free trial and pay for the subscription to use this app

### 1/5 — Ver. 4.6.5 is GARBAGE

*2026-08-05, version 4.6.5*

Loved this app. but Ver. 4.6.5 is straight TRASH. Nothing works except one option and as soon as it is finished the app crashes. Went from a 5 star to a 1 star in the matter of an update. Also why does reface option still have the watermark if you paid for it. LOOKS LIKE I WON’T BE RENEWING MY SUBSCRIPTION THIS MONTH

### 1/5 — It’s not free

*2026-07-29, version 4.6.5*

Seems the app is completely unusable unless you buy premium. Literally can’t even access a menu page or anything.

### 1/5 — Ver. 4.6.5 is GARBAGE

*2026-07-26, version 4.6.5*

Loved this app. I’ve subscribed to this app. Ver. 4.6.5 is straight trash. Nothing works except one option and as soon as it is finished the app crashes. Went from a 5 star to a 1 star in the matter of an update. So since this doesn’t work at all will you be giving discounts to people who paid for your product?

### 1/5 — Stopped working entirely

*2026-07-20, version 4.6.5*

Since the latest update 4.6.5 the app has stopped working

### 5/5 — Do you have application on Google store

*2026-06-04, version 4.6.2*

Please do you have application on Google store

### 5/5 — Effective & easy to learn

*2025-11-24, version 4.3.9*

I downloaded it and was able to get what I wanted done within 15 minutes. I replaced a face in an old b&w photo with one from a new color photo. The software took the color and matched it to the old b&w very well. The hi-resolution down grades to the same grainy look too. Nicely done!

### 5/5 — Facecover

*2025-03-18, version 4.3.3*

### 5/5 — You don’t need the Faceover premium either to have fun, unlike all of the clean storage apps.
