### 4/5 — Excellent, but

*2025-10-04*

Superb programme badly let down by small menu icons and minuscule text. This part of the interface needs urgent attention. At the moment it’s a great example of style over function. I am running it on a MacBook Pro with a 13in screen and I have a headache.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the review. I really appreciate the feedback! I'm diving into the UI code to make things more readable. I will specifically do testing on the 13" MacBook and similar small screens to make sure it's easy to use.

### 2/5 — Working on it

*2024-03-28*

This app does not work on my mac. Currently working with the developer to figure it out.

**Developer response:** I'm sorry you're having trouble with Skies. As I mentioned in my email to you, this might be a bug and I'm looking into it.

### 4/5 — It's too hard to work

*2023-11-22*

sorry I bought it.

### 3/5 — Good app - one issue

*2023-03-25*

It’s an great app and as a professional photographer, it saves me a lot of time fiddling around on Photoshop and Lightroom. My only issue is that every time I click to use it, it kicks me out of the app. But other than that it’s fantastic.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the review! I'm looking into the bug you mentioned. Please contact me at support@brainfevermedia.com so I can help.
Thanks!

### 3/5 — Version 4.6 crashes on startup

*2023-01-09*

The app used to work fine until updated to vesrion 4.6 which is the latest version compatable with macOS Big Sur (11.7.2). Now app crashes on startup. I deleted and reinstalled from Apple App Store but no luck. Can you help?

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. I'm looking into this to see what is happening. Please contact as support@brainfevermedia.com so we can help!

### 3/5 — Can’t undo or delete a project

*2022-12-28*

This is a great tool but it doesn’t allow me to undo something I didn’t like, nor delete a project. Even though it has the tools there to do it, they don’t work. Also, there are zero instructions on how to operate certain features like the masking feature. That would be very helpful for novices like me.

**Developer response:** Sorry for the issues. I'm working on a fix for the project issue and looking into the undo issue. I appreciate the feedback!

### 4/5 — Very good app

*2022-11-30*

This is a very good app to use, does not work on every picture, so you need to be selective on your photo and sky used, got quite other features as well, like photo editing, good all around app, well worth downloading.

### 3/5 — AI doesn’t work

*2022-09-07*

I had to do a lot of mask editing to get the sky replacement to work. The automatic mask was a starting point but needs work.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback. I'm working on improving the masking. If there is something in particular that isn't working for you, please contact us at support@brainfevermedia.com so we can help!

### 4/5 — Needs more tutorials, buggy

*2022-08-20*

The developer assumes people are used to using layers and Photoshop tools. See the tutorials. They help a lot. Fun app.

**Developer response:** Infinite Skies can export time-lapse videos for any of the moving sky presets. If this isn't working for you, please contact us at support@brainfevermedia.com
The app previews demonstrate the exported videos with time-lapse moving skies.

### 2/5 — Too slow and laggy

*2022-06-12*

This app has potential but at the moment it’s so laggy and slow responsive . Needs more polish

**Developer response:** I appreciate the feedback and am working to improve performance. I'd love to hear more about what in particular wasn't working well. Please contact me at support@brainfevermedia.com so I can help!

### 4/5 — Crashes

*2021-12-13, version 3.3*

Unfortunately not working on iPad Air 2

### 2/5 — Limited

*2021-10-26*

Limited and unsatisfactory. Difficult to delete or undo an overlay which results in a spoiled project. Only one level of undo. Cannot delete a project.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. You can delete overlays with the Layer view. Tap the Layers icon in top-right. To delete a project, long-press the project to get the popup menu for delete, duplicate, etc. Hope this helps!

### 3/5 — Mask option disappears

*2021-10-15*

The mask option is randomly disappearing. Deleting an element/sky is glitchy. Sometimes it flattens itself and locks an element on top of a photo like a PIP. Starting over is the only solution. iPhone XSMax on iOS 14.7.1 & latest app version. Am contacting support but as a user, it helps to know if others are having the same issues. (Maybe mine won’t work until I update to iOS 15; I’m a notoriously slow iOS updater.)

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. I'm looking into these issues. Please contact at support@brainfevermedia.com so I can help figure this out.

### 3/5 — Glitchy

*2021-10-02*

I’m finding it glitchy. What happened to being able to pull the sky down, where you want it and masking for trees?

**Developer response:** Sorry for the troubles! Please contact us at support@brainfevermedia.com so we can help. None of the sky-editing features should have changed. Be sure to Tap the SKIES icon at the bottom first, then you should be able to move the sky and edit the mask with the mask button.

### 4/5 — App crash very often

*2021-09-04*

Really great idea and I would like upgrade to pro version. But fix bugs and make your app more stable, please. It’s crash on almost every photo during automatic sky detection. The same problem with your Skylab app, by the way.

### 1/5 — waste of money.

*2024-10-29*

horrible to use. not many skies to choose from.

### 1/5 — Does not work at all

*2024-03-21*

This app does not work on my mac. I reached out to the developer, alas, no response.

**Developer response:** I'm sorry you're having trouble with Skies. As I mentioned in my email to you, this might be a bug and I'm looking into it.

### 1/5 — Interesting.  Needs more work. Too buggy!

*2023-09-30*

I tried using this program.   When I attempted to close the program, it would not shut down and locked up my MacBook Air 15.    Even after using force quit and doing a total restart.  I have totally removed it and cannot recommend it.

### 1/5 — Crashes when opening

*2023-06-14*

I installed the version that states it works with my operating system. Program crashes upon operning.  I have never got to use this program.

### 1/5 — Dodgy

*2022-03-16*

Doesn’t put the sky behind my image. The sky is placed ontop instead?

**Developer response:** Please contact us at support@brainfevermedia.com so we can help out!

### 1/5 — A slap in the face…

*2021-09-22*

of the people who helped you to grow. Bought about 9 apps over the years an now it’s subscription or 50.-€??? Sorry, that’s lousy. Could have been an offer to complete a pack, at least for existing customers. P.S.: In case you delete this like my last comment there are still Instagram, Twitter and the forums.

**Developer response:** I appreciate the feedback and understand your concern. Infinite Skies is a new type of app that I am actively growing and adding new content and features. You're welcome to download it for free and try it out! p.s. I haven't deleted any comments and really do appreciate hearing from my users.

### 1/5 — Faire une mise à jour c’est très important

*2021-09-17*

Mettez votre application à jour elle ne tourne pas du tout dommage car ça serait quelque chose de très bien🤷🏼‍♂️❓❓❓❓🤦🏼

**Developer response:** I'm sorry you're having trouble with Infinite Skies. Please email us at support@brainfevermedia.com so we can help!

### 1/5 — 啥东西 居然可以上架到苹果商店

*2021-08-05*

不建议大家下载，感觉是盗版的，很多东西不稳定，强退，还有就是一来就收费

### 1/5 — Pleins de bugs 👎

*2021-06-25*

⚠️Le prix du " One time purchase " est tres chère ! Nul 😠👎 ‼️

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing

*2021-05-20, version 1.9*

Every time I try to use the Sky mask, the app crashes. If I can’t define my sky, the app is useless. Hopefully will be fixed with an app update.

### 5/5 — Great stuff!

*2025-10-26*

Just dropping by every year or so to say I absolutely adore your products. 




Just amazing, simply amazing. Thank you so very much! You rock!

Lol! I know, I’ve hop on anything (well most) you guys drop in the App Store. And if you are thinking about it, it’s too late for me, already got it! LOL Just spit balling here, but how about a discount,nlike buy 10 or 11 get the 12th for free or discount? Just asking for a friend!

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. I'm looking into ways to possibly bundle my newer apps. Also, once you purchase or subscribe, you'll keep getting new content and feature updates.

### 5/5 — This app is so cool

*2025-02-25, version 5.0*

I love this app

### 5/5 — Love it

*2024-06-02*

I love this app but I’m thinking it’s not for an iPhone. My undo/redo buttons don’t work nor does my mask. This means I have to start all over a lot and some of my photos aren’t good for this app. For example, rough seas in a picture is not a flat horizon so the app can’t handle that. It cuts limbs off trees and people that are the subjects. Sometimes the subjects have halos. Not sure if I can transfer to my Mac without purchasing again. Tutorials are vague. When it works it’s awesome!

**Developer response:** Thank you for the review! For tree branches, try the Tree Brush on the Mask view. To help with horizons, increase the Horizon slider in Skies mode. This will fade the sky bottom.
You should have the app on the Mac, with the same AppleID. You might need to restore purchases. Hope this helps!

### 5/5 — Fantastic!

*2024-05-29*

I love this app! I’m not a fan of the photo losing some pixels so if you fix that you will be my favorite!!

### 5/5 — Wonderful

*2023-01-27*

Exceptional App. I like very much this genius creation 8

### 5/5 — Sooooo?....

### 5/5 — Import Sky

*2021-08-02*

Thank you for adding the import sky feature.  This makes a great app even better.  Infinite Skies is the best app out there for adding skies on the go!!

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! I'm glad the import is useful for you.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2021-06-22*

I’ve only used it a little but the results are unbelievable

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! I hope to keep making Infinite Skies even better.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2021-06-11*

This is perfect for what I do. Such a great idea and it works well too. I’d love to see more storms and tornadoes.

### 5/5 — 软件还不错！希望中文早点来！

*2021-06-05*

很不错的一款软件！喜欢拍照的可以下载！但是目前不支持中文蛮遗憾的，希望可以早点支持简体中文，谢谢。

**Developer response:** I'm working on adding localizations including Chinese. Thank you!
