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. **Developer response:** We have received your feedback regarding the image generation results not looking accurate.

Absolutely absurd. **Developer response:** Hi *djsd*, We're sorry to hear that your experience with Hey Star did not meet your expectations.
