GroupShot solves a common problem found in group photos, namely one person who isn’t facing the camera or whose expression doesn’t fit the rest of the group. 
Usually people take several shots of group photos, with the hope that one will be perfect. 
With GroupShot, users can pick and choose parts of each photo, then combine all the parts to create the perfect shot that looks exactly the same.

The usage is incredibly simple. All you need to do is to load your images, mark the parts you wish to replace, and choose the best option from the rest of the set.

GroupShot is very easy to use and requires no technical knowledge.

### 3/5 — Almost does what I needed to do

*2026-04-07, version 2.0.0*

This is one of the only tools except Photoshop that will let you swap faces between two group images, which is exactly what I need. Only downside is the output is very low resolution.

### 4/5 — Love, Love, Love

*2025-12-07, version 2.0.0*

I absolutely love this app. It’s easy to use, and it works extremely well. The ONLY downside, and I’ll admit it’s significant, is that the resulting images end up being a lot lower than the source images. If there was some way to update the app to allow full-resolution exports, this would be my dream app.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2025-01-26, version 2.0.0*

…

### 5/5 — Absolutely worth $2 app if can output full resolution

*2023-12-15, version 2.0.0*

I assume this app is free because of the really bad reviews 3-4 years ago. However I’m on the latest iOS with latest iPhone and everything is working fine even uploaded RAW48 and no problem. Only issue I have with this app at all is the fact the resolution is not full. I’m not sure if this can be a quick fix? I’d be willing to pay $2 for this app if the resolution could be full RAW input. Otherwise this isn’t really a solution that you want long term because all your best photos are gonna be wallet sized 

It will not be long until Apple releases a similar feature and may need to remove this from the App Store so I highly suggest you fix the output and then charge $2. I gave you 5 stars but only because I trust you will make it full output

### 1/5 — So bad

*2023-12-04, version 2.0.0*

There’s no tools. It just guesses and swaps the pics and though my husband and I have cried out tears laughing at how bad our family photo looked trying to use this app, it really didn’t accomplish what I was going for

### 5/5 — Great concept

*2023-12-03, version 2.0.0*

And it works well

### 1/5 — Please update for ios17

*2023-11-23, version 2.0.0*

Please update the app crashes

### 3/5 — Hi res, please

*2023-10-25, version 2.0.0*

This app is terrific and easy to use, but it greatly reduces the resolution of my uploaded photo when saved. Please fix this. I need to keep good resolution in my photos or else they look pretty bad, especially when uploaded to Facebook with their lowered resolution

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2023-10-25, version 2.0.0*

Literally does not work AT ALL.

### 5/5 — Great for toddlers!!

*2023-06-18, version 2.0.0*

This app is good! Impressed!
