### 1/5 — Horrible!!!

*2026-05-10*

I have never seen such a poor AI creation. I tried several images and they didn’t even look close to me. Then I would have had to buy more coins to try and make updates to attempt to get an image that looks closer. Worst 7.99 I ever spent.

We will enhance the model’s accuracy in upcoming updates and will contact you via email. If you have any other questions or feedback, we’d be happy to hear from you.You can contact us through the Contact Support page in the app to receive our response.

### 5/5 — Love it !!!!!

*2026-05-07, version 1.5.3*

Super fun to play with lol because a girl can dream

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money

*2026-05-07*

Waist of money yearly subscription 20,000 coins for the whole year picture 400coins video 600 pictures don’t even look like you have to edit multiple times to kinda look like you each edit is 200 coins then asks you to buy more coins because you spend all 20,000 for the whole year in less than a week. Absolutely absurd.

*2026-05-06, version 1.5.3*

So far so good it’s my first time using this app. I’ll update at a later day.
5/2026…… don’t like app! I spend money and it doesn’t do as I ask. I asked for shoes they cut my legs off at knees and put shoes on overly huge ankles and right thigh.
