User reviews

Addictive

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

Confused…

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.

At last a great converter app

I have several good apps for converting photos to paintings but this one is my favorite.

Yes indeed…

Liked the advances in technology that made progress in the art department field…

Don’t buy this App

Terrible app and the image is unusable
No control and very limited

Response from developer

We’re sorry to hear you did not like PaintSnap. 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.
