I’ve NEVER had any issues and always had beautiful artsy pictures from my photos. ### 5/5 — One of the best photo into art apps *2019-05-26, version 3.6* Very creative. ### 5/5 — Great app *2017-04-15, version 3.4.7* Simple to use, and the results are just stunning. ### 4/5 — Good app; complex but nice results *2016-10-04, version 3.4.7* Complex interface but great results. Good app now but refinements and improvements, particularly in options, could make this great. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2016-06-30, version 3.4.7* This provides fun and no end of usefulness for table settings, decorations, etc. Wonderful creative applications! ### 5/5 — Thanks for bug fixes! Super love app again. *2015-07-17, version 3.4.7* Thanks for bug fixes! Super love app again. ### 1/5 — Best app--now broken :( *2015-02-21, version 3.4.6* I am a painter (oil) and I absolutely loved this app! When it was working it helped me to "see" more abstractly and to plan my artwork with that abstract quality in mind (which is actually very hard to do). Please fix this app! I am broken without it! ### 1/5 — Broken - was a favorite *2015-01-27, version 3.4.6* I loved this app. Worked fine on my iPhone 4S for the last two years. Now that I've upgraded to iPhone 6+ it is no longer working. Crashes upon launch. Please fix this once fantastic app! ### 1/5 — Malfunctioning application *2014-12-04, version 3.4.6* Hi, I am a new user of your application (Paintmee by Studio Mee ). I am using the latest version of operating system. I just bought your application, I am not satisfied because it isn't working properly. It seems that the application closes on me every time I tried to launch it. What should I do? Should I make a complain to Apple customer service? Can you please provide me a feedback. I hope you can make this up to me. ### 4/5 — Missing one thing *2013-02-25, version 3.4.2* This app would get 5 stars if I could output to vector PDF for printing purposes, rather than really big raster pictures. Also, I think the paint texture is an unnecessary element, perhaps a way to turn that off? ## Frequently asked questions about PaintMee ### What does the PaintMee app do?
