The resolution has been increased to 3240px in length with PaintSnap Premium. Based on the ratings, most people like PaintSnap’s unique filters but we understand art is subjective. The filters tend to look better with photos that are colorful. ### 1/5 — Extremely limited single function *2022-01-18* Oh complete waste of money. I have the same filters on two free apps. In no way does this turn a photo into anything near an impressionist painting. It just provides a text your screen on top of your photo. I was suckered into buying the space depart the pictures on the app ad. Don’t expect your photos to turn out like what they’re showing. I should have known when there are over 30 reviews but only the top two are revealed no matter how you try to see the other reviews. This is a scam it should be thrown off the Apple system. **Developer response:** We are sorry to hear PaintSnap did not meet your expectations. The app previews and screenshots on the app page were indeed generated using PaintSnap. We do not quite understand the statement "It just provides a text your screen on top of your photo" in your review. PaintSnap gives best results for pictures that are colorful. ### 4/5 — Confused… *2024-09-25* I was using the free version - enjoying the various sliders to change the image before then deciding on the impressionist level. I spent the $2.99 for the premium version - and all the options other than the impressionist levels are now gone. If this is what should happen then I am very unhappy. **Developer response:** Hi, this is not normal and this issue has never been reported before - please email us at support@inspiredbits.co in order for us to be able to help you with this. In the meantime try closing the app and then re-opening it. ### 4/5 — Yes indeed… *2024-01-11, version 2.7.0* Liked the advances in technology that made progress in the art department field… ### 5/5 — Addictive *2025-07-16, version 2.8.7* I do a bit of painting. I take many photos and try to turn a few into paintings. I think how would Monet or Van Gogh paint this photo, this app helps from the lowest setting to the highest I can pick an option, and copy it ### 5/5 — At last a great converter app *2024-07-21* I have several good apps for converting photos to paintings but this one is my favorite. ### 5/5 — Wonderful ! *2023-04-14* I love this app. Hopefully there will be more impressionism styles and colors added to this app ( Please ) ! The best photo artistic application out there, a must have for your photos, my very favorite photo painting! I said it’s a wonderful, amazing app 5 stars all the way, and if there’s more, it’ll be 10 stars form me ! Best, Lucia ### 5/5 — Good App *2022-07-31, version 2.3.22* I am enjoying this app. I always take photos of my paintings as I go along and it’s interesting to see what the picture would look like with a more impressionist edge. I will probably copy a painting from the app. ### 5/5 — Impressionist Fun *2022-01-27* This is a fun and helpful way to assist me in my painting development. By using my favorite photos, I can imagine and see how to make something look dreamy and indistinct. The distortions can be visualized using this app and I am thrilled to the max for this kind of help. Thank You app developers! ### 5/5 — Great app for business use! *2021-04-14* This is a really cool app. I installed this app to use for a business.. I like how you can adjust the options available. It’s very easy to use too. **Developer response:** Glad you enjoy PaintSnap and thanks for the feedback! ## Most praised reviews (1 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Paintsnap *2021-03-21* Its a one of a kind app to transform my photos in front of my eyes to an impressionist painting in a matter of seconds!
