It’s like they didn’t even look at the photos that were downloaded ### 1/5 — Scam *2024-05-01, version 1.44* Nothing but error messages. Absolute scam. ### 1/5 — App Doesn’t Work *2024-04-30, version 1.44* After spending a lot of time trying to find photos to meet the upload requirements, the app gives 500 code errors on upload. After spending $4 (no free trial) I have an app that does nothing. ### 1/5 — Low quality pics don’t look good *2024-03-22, version 1.42* It took me ober 100 pics to upload for them to accept 9 of them because “there’s not a pet in the photo” where it’s a very clear up close pic. Then they charge you $2.99 for one week before you can even see what the AI will look like. They do not look anything like my pet and if you want to save a clear pic it’s an extra $5 per week or else they’re pixelated. Also you have to pay even more to do more than one pet ### 2/5 — Don’t waste your money *2024-02-29, version 1.41* I’m a dog groomer and thought this would be fun. The dogs didn’t really look like them in the pics, my little terrier mix looked like a kangaroo, ugh. Just feels like a waste of my money!! ### 1/5 — Horrendous App-Incredibly inaccurate *2024-02-27, version 1.40* Do not waste your money. This app generated pics that look like nothing like the pics I submitted, I tried to use the chat function for help and it’s a complete rip off/scam ### 1/5 — Scam - NO photos were of my dog. Not worth spending a penny on this app. *2024-02-26, version 1.40* Not worth spending a penny on this app Uploaded many photos of ONE dog and got ALL random dogs on app. Glad I only paid for the weekly to “test” the app. I’m trying to get a refund as I don’t want to give my money to scams! ### 1/5 — No *2024-02-20, version 1.40* U need to pay ### 1/5 — No samples, must subscribe *2024-02-17, version 1.40* This app asks for your pictures, then demands a paid subscription without showing any examples of what you are paying for. Feels like a scam. ### 1/5 — Have to pay *2024-02-14* Downloaded to try out but you have to pay a subscription to even use it **Developer response:** Hey, Pet Avatars consume tremendous computation power to create amazing avatars for you. It's not free, but we made it as affordable as possible ❤️ ### 1/5 — Not even close! *2024-01-19, version 1.36* I gave this a try, so submitted my photos to create the avatars. The images that came back were not even close to what my dog is. She’s a Toy Fox Terrier, and the images created looked like a beagle, Bulldog, Pug, nothing even close! Cancelled subscription and app will be deleted. ### 2/5 — Doesn't work on dogs with patterns *2024-01-15* Didn't look like my dog :/ **Developer response:** Hey, we are sorry that you experienced poor results. Sometimes, things like this happen due to the AI generation approach. If you contact us at support@4taps.me, we can provide you with free improved generations for your dog. ### 1/5 — Scam *2024-01-02, version 1.35* You have to pay money to do anything Don’t get this app ### 1/5 — Disappointing *2023-12-30* I paid 2.99€ to test the app, I uploaded my dog (English spaniel cocker) and the app sent me pics with another dog breed… I don’t recommend this app **Developer response:** Hi, we apologize for the issues that you've experienced. Kindly write to us at support@4taps.me, and we would investigate your issue further. As compensation, we'd provide you with free packs of avatars. Thank you! ### 1/5 — Worst one I’ve tried so far. *2023-12-22, version 1.34* Almost none of the images actually look like my pet. ### 1/5 — Nothing looks like my cat *2023-12-20, version 1.33* I uploaded tons of pics of my cat straight on so you could see her entire face. This app did not make one single image look like her with the correct coloring. Total waste of $. ### 2/5 — 6 likeness out of 400 + photos *2023-11-19, version 1.28* Fun but not enough likeness in the photo results! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t think the pics are of my same dog *2023-11-19, version 1.28* Unfortunately, I couldn’t use the app because it requires 10 pics to get started and only one it accepted as the same pet. I have a very odd hairless breed with lots of spots and I think it confused the app ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Waste of time and money *2026-01-30, version 1.57* Horrible generated AI photos. Uploaded photos of my black dog and got pictures back of a white and brown dog. ### 1/5 — Don’t do it! *2025-07-27, version 1.55* This app makes you pay to get even one photo and gives you an error every time you try and upload photos to receive a portrait. Waste of money. You also don’t have access to all portraits even if you pay. Scam. ### 1/5 — Not free *2025-02-16, version 1.51* I was able to upload, then got stopped and forced to pay. I never got to see what the app could do. Deleted it right away. ### 1/5 — Paywall *2024-12-31, version 1.51* Can't use for free. Wasted my time making an account and choosing pictures for no reason ### 1/5 — Disappointing *2024-12-13, version 1.51* Looks nothing like my dog.(added white full markings on a rottie with no white:/) ### 1/5 — sneaky *2024-12-07, version 1.51* required to upload 8-10ish images of your dog, you spend all that time finding photos it approves, THEN they tell you to subscribe. St least offer an example before asking for payment. ### 1/5 — Needs work *2024-12-02, version 1.51* The pictures look nothing like my dog, they’re cute, but look nothing like my dog. The app needs lots of work. ### 1/5 — Does not look like my cat *2024-09-15, version 1.48* I uploaded pics of my BLACK AND ORANGE tortie cat and all the pics were a black and white tuxedo cat?? Paid 9.99 for that :/ ### 1/5 — Is it possible to get a refund? *2024-07-18, version 1.46* This app is horrible!! I am so unhappy with the results. I emailed the support email I will update this review if they make it right. Might as well burned a $10 bill ### 1/5 — Is it possible to get a refund. *2024-07-16* I am so unhappy with the results. I emailed the support email I will update this review if they make it right.
