Well… I’ve been waiting three weeks, and it says it’s still training. The update seemed to do absolutely nothing because it’s still training. It did some great stuff, but it doesn’t work, and it doesn’t seem to be a way to get a hold of the developers or the programmers or anyone. Let’s face it. Ai is cool when it works but maybe we should just stick with humans. ### 3/5 — Didn’t work for me nor my friends! *2023-04-22* This app, when works, is amazing and delivers stunning avatars. That was several months ago and today when I tried another training, it never finished training! It’s been an entire day and it never finished! This has been the same result for my friends too, who are also disappointed. This app has so much potential but I’m afraid I can’t recommend it anymore if Namesake isn’t able to fix this. Many other users are experiencing this too and they are not willing to address it. ### 2/5 — App not working *2023-03-31* I paid for extra credits as well as an additional training subject. My first training took over 3 days and the extra one I paid for has taken over two weeks and still says training. I have asked for a refund ### 2/5 — Forever Training *2023-02-18, version 1.0.9* This app says the model will need 1-6 hours to train. It’s been two days. The credit I’ve paid for can’t be used. Very disappointed. ### 3/5 — Complaint *2023-02-11, version 1.0.9* I love this app but why does it take time to load the avatar pics.Mine took five days ### 1/5 — Keeps getting stuck at “training” *2023-01-30, version 1.0.9* Was so excited for this app. But it doesn’t work for me. After I upload my photos, the “training” portion gets stuck for hours and hours. My first time it was well over 24 hrs. Then I deleted the app and uploaded my photos again. The second time it’s been stuck for over 8 hrs. I emailed the support team twice and never got a response. 🤷‍♂️ ### 1/5 — It was giving up to 3 photo groups *2023-01-17, version 1.0.8* As I mentioned in the title it was giving up to 3 photos group until this new update stopped that feature ### 1/5 — Not safe *2023-01-04, version 1.0.7* You can’t delete your photos that is unacceptable ### 1/5 — DELETE MY ACCOUNT!! *2023-01-02, version 1.0.7* I want to delete my account!!! Give me the option to delete my account! ### 1/5 — Change the sitting *2022-12-31, version 1.0.7* How to remove photo in discovery?? ### 1/5 — Trash *2022-12-30, version 1.0.7* Saw a tutorial for this on a TikTok. After downloading and cropping the 8-10 pictures I need, the app failed to load any AI content despite multiple attempts. I was unsure if this app was legit but it obviously is not. ### 1/5 — App’s problem *2022-12-28, version 1.0.6* It doesn’t work! ### 3/5 — I cant delete my photo ! *2022-12-26, version 1.0.6* is any one can see my photo ? How I can delete it ?! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Training *2023-08-03* I tried giving my photos so it could make the avatars. This was on the free version. It said 1-6 hours. I decided to leave the tab open in case it needed that. A day passed. It was still training. A second day passed. It was still training. What am I doing wrong here in where 1-6 hours can turn to 48+ hours? ### 1/5 — Stopped working *2023-05-03* Based on other reviews, looks like I’m not the only for whom the app stopped working. Which means I just spent a load of money for NOTHING. And to boot, NO ONE responded to my multiple requests for support. Don’t waste your money. The app should not even be offered for downloading anymore. ### 1/5 — . *2023-04-23* التطبيق سيء كان أفضل بكثير.. أصبح مجرد تطبيق تجاري يريد منك الحصول على المال فقط! كانت هنالك تجارب عديدة لأضافة مجموعة من الصور مجاناً ولكن لغيَ التطبيق هذهِ الميزة واصبح مجرد تطبيق مدفوع! The app is bad. It was much better.. It has become just a commercial app that only wants you to get money! There were many experiments to add a group of images for free, but the application canceled this feature and became just a paid application! ### 1/5 — Stuck on AI training *2023-03-28* The app has been stuck on AI training for more than 12 hours now. I tried to delete it and reinstall it again but each time I tried to use it,its still stuck on a Ai training since yesterday I’ve tried it several times and it’s not working ### 1/5 — DELETE MY ACCOUNT!!! *2023-02-26, version 1.0.9* IVE NEVER SEEN AN APP THAT DID NOT HAVE A CANCEL ACCOUNT OPTION! 🤬 ### 1/5 — Don’t spend your money . *2023-02-16, version 1.0.9* Purchased “150 credits” ( $3.99 ) so that I could see some of the effects , & it says 20 credits per subject , but it used all of the credits on one subject , soo I can’t see the different filters just waiting on the random ais , although , after reading the reviews I’m not sure they’ll ever generate . I’ll update review if so . ### 1/5 — Namesake *2023-02-12, version 1.0.9* Still stuck at training - and i bought lots of credits, emailed with no reply!! i want my money back!! ### 1/5 — Very bad *2023-02-12, version 1.0.9* This app is very bad that it takes almost a day to load. I left it on when I went to work in the morning and now in the evening it is still loading. What a waste of time. This app is trash ### 1/5 — It’s not working *2023-02-08, version 1.0.9* It gives the message that my photos are ready but when I open the app it’s still training !! How I can delete my photos or account I don’t want to use it again. ### 1/5 — Stuck at “Training” *2023-02-03, version 1.0.9* Seems app does not work for some. I also submitted photos and the app never finished “training.” Tried twice and after 24 hours each time, it’s the same result: nothing. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Deleting Question *2023-05-11* How do you remove pictures from profile ? ### 5/5 — Great AI App! *2023-01-08, version 1.0.8* I love getting my daily photo drop to see new AI versions of me, and I also love that the app is free and doesn’t have any ads :) ### 5/5 — Best App out there *2023-01-08, version 1.0.8* I am trying to train another AI Unfortunately the app gets stuck on this page and it will not let you scroll up to where I should be able to make a payment. I would love to change my review once this is corrected. Thank you very much ### 5/5 — Amazing! *2023-01-04, version 1.0.7* I absolutely love this app. So many of them were spot on. I actually appreciate my looks a lot more after seeing myself in these different styles. Really amazing what they can do with a few of your pics. I wish there was an option to delete the ones you don’t want or didn’t like. That would be great. Also when I did the Marvel avengers feature only one came out like me. The rest were Caucasian guys that look nothing like me. Great app! Just really wish there were a delete option ### 5/5 — Fun with friends and family *2022-12-31, version 1.0.7* Downloaded this with friends and family and this quickly overtook conversations over many meals! Quick AI training and bunch of potential avatars/images. Highly recommend! ### 5/5 — Watermark *2022-12-30, version 1.0.7* I love the app but I think you can add a paid option to remove the watermark ### 5/5 — Best *2022-12-22, version 1.0.6* This is the best app AI ### 5/5 — How is this free *2022-12-17, version 1.0.6* You should charge me for how often I use this all lol. I have avatars of everyone I know plus my dog ### 5/5 — Wow *2022-12-14, version 1.0.6* I can’t believe how these came out like just like me . Some weren’t close but I found maybe 6 worked I love it ### 5/5 — Great app, fast training, and was free *2022-12-11, version 1.0.5* I absolutely love this app! It's amazing how well the AI captures my likeness and creates an avatar that looks just like me. The user interface is also really easy to navigate and the whole process is incredibly quick. I've used other similar apps in the past, but this one is by far the best. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to create an avatar of themselves.
