Overall sentiment: negative **Pros** - 🤪 Funny app - 👍 Easy to use - 🎨 Helpful for businesses **Cons** - 💰 Expensive subscription - 🐛 Crashes and bugs - 🙄 Excessive ads - 🤯 Confusing interface - 🤷‍♀️ Limited features **Commonly reported bugs** - Photos not saving properly - Subscription not working as expected - Incompatibility with newer devices **Most requested features** - Ability to organize photos - More customization options - Watermark logo feature - Improved syncing between devices ## Newest reviews (15 of 93) ### 1/5 — Needs more options *2024-11-25, version 3.6.0* You can’t edit individual pictures, ie- the lighting, tone, etc. You can’t resize, change the orientation, etc. Very, very primitive compared to another FREE app I was using. ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2024-11-01, version 3.5.2* You feel stupid after you download ### 1/5 — 3.5.2 업데이트 이후에 그전에 찍은 사진 데이터가 안나옵니다. *2024-11-01* Imazing 으로 확인한 결과 폴더 안에 용량은 꽤 있는 것으로 보아 삭제는 아닌듯 한데 빨리 해결해주세요. 무슨 수를 써도 추출도 안되고 백업을 해도 사진 폴더는 백업도 안되고 사진을 따로 추출할 수도 없습니다. 잘 쓰고 있다가 꼭 필요한 사진이 날아가게 생겼습니다. 어플이 안정성이 안 좋으면 편의성이 무슨 의미 있을까요? ### 2/5 — Highly functional but also highly predatory *2024-10-15, version 3.5.1* This app is functionally one of the best before and after apps that I’ve seen. Unfortunately, the WEEKLY charge of 2.99 just screams predatory- think about it. 150 dollars a year for this? You’re better off paying for a premiere, more comprehensive photo editing program. Would avoid for that reason. ### 1/5 — Garbage *2024-07-18, version 3.0.0* What is this app supposed to be? You have a divider and the arrows that look like you can swipe left and right, but it’s just a photo. ### 1/5 — Can’t figure it out *2024-07-12, version 3.0.0* I could upload two photos, pick the format for the social media platform I wanted, add text, choose the color of the slider … and then had no clue how to make the actual slider slide back and forth. Completely stuck. Can’t find a tutorial. Entirely possible I’m just being a door bit too bad. Going to cancel the subscription now. ### 1/5 — New to app *2024-06-26, version 3.0.0* Not at all what is described. Avoid this app. ### 3/5 — App crashes *2024-05-25, version 2.6.0* I’ve payed for this all for a few months now and all the sudden it crashes when I try to make a new picture. It worked amazing before and I would continue using but I can’t get the app not to crash. I even dried deleting it and redownloading which got rid of the projects that were on there and it worked better but after 10 pictures it started crashing again. ### 1/5 — Don’t buy!!! *2024-05-23, version 2.6.0* Just puts two images side by side. No slider. Scam app!! ### 1/5 — Awful watermark has been added in new version *2024-05-21, version 2.6.0* Used to be good but now there is a horrible watermark. Will never use again ### 1/5 — A complete nightmare! *2024-04-20, version 2.6.0* You can’t finish a project without constantly being bombarded with request for premium subscriptions while adds keep coming at you all over the place! No thanks! ### 4/5 — Overall opinion *2024-02-27, version 2.4.0* I like this app so much it really helps save memories. Although it does not let you make a new one without a payment so you half to delete the old one !!!😐😐😐if you are not looking to spend money I would not recommend this app!!👀💵but other than that it is an amazing app !!! ### 3/5 — Just OK *2024-02-26, version 2.4.0* Yes simple to use- BUT no way to organize your before/after pics, can’t sync between phones - even with same name and Apple ID- you have to pay again. So, just OK not really a good app. ### 1/5 — No 3 day trial as advertised *2024-02-25, version 2.4.0* In addition there is no movable slider. This is a ridiculous app and how it has 5 stars I’ll never know ### 1/5 — False advertising *2024-01-03, version 2.1.0* App description literally says “this app requires no money and we think that’s cool”. Well I open it after downloading and it only gives you 3 days free and then they start charging you. Well I was looking for a free option so why did you even bother forcing me to download? So you can steal my personal info? What is the gain from false advertising? Misleading description, doesn’t even seem like it does what I was looking for (allows you to compare two photos?) im looking for something that provides a shadow of the “before” photo so you can line up your after photo before taking it. This app is a waste of time. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ridiculous weekly fee *2026-06-23, version 3.31.0* The app is ok, the fee is not! Do not sign up for this! They are charging a weekly fee! ### 1/5 — Useless *2026-05-28, version 3.28.0* 20/m subscription for this POS ### 1/5 — Where are the instructions on how to compare photos *2026-01-10* Where **Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback. You can find the instructions directly in the app by starting a new comparison—step-by-step guidance is shown there. We’re also working on making this clearer. Thanks for trying Photo Compare. Kind regards, Devnex Support ### 1/5 — Garbage *2025-10-12, version 3.19.0* Worst app for before after pictures does not come full like you wanted just piece of the picture junk and waste of money ### 1/5 — Não dá para salvar! *2025-08-30* Eu tentei 1,000,000 de vezes e não consegui salvar **Developer response:** Hi Gael, Thanks for your feedback! You can save an image to your camera roll by using the share option, and all edits are saved automatically in the app. Sorry if this wasn’t clear — we’ll work on making the process more intuitive. Kind regards, Devnex Support ### 1/5 — Useless *2025-07-07, version 3.14.0* You’re taking two photos and creating a single photo for comparison, why blur a third of the framed photo when you’re already limited in space? I get different formats require a different shapes but you end up with a tiny fraction of each photo surrounded by a blurred frames which adds nothing aesthetically. You would think that with AI these before and after apps would be cool. Like why can’t your after photo sync with the before photo to give the same context? And what’s with the filters? Most people who want a before and after photo usually use it for business like designers, landscapers, hairdressers. We don’t want something that isn’t actually in the original photos. Unless your target demographic are 7th and 8th graders who can afford $150 a year ### 1/5 — Very little options *2025-04-08* Accidentally did a trial version of this app at one time. I forgot and so I downloaded it again. In doing so they charged me. Must improve: the ability to place text where you wish on your photos and in what font! This app is so cut and dry! Enjoy **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! Just so you know — you can position text freely by dragging it with your finger on the photo. And we’ve recently added text styles, so you can now choose from a variety of fonts and looks to make your creations more personal. We’re always working to improve, and we really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts! Kind regards, Devnex Support ### 1/5 — Price? *2025-03-21, version 3.8.0* $4.99 a week is the only option after you install it even though it has different options on the App Store. ### 1/5 — App not functioning properly *2025-03-13, version 3.8.0* Using a newer iPad cannot select photos from library ### 1/5 — 希望增加同时放大缩小两张图片功能， *2024-12-19* 希望增加同时放大缩小两张图片功能， **Developer response:** 感谢您的反馈！我们很高兴您分享了您的建议。我们已记录了您关于同时放大缩小两张图片的功能需求，并会在未来的更新中认真考虑。如果您还有其他建议，请随时告诉我们！您的意见对我们改进应用非常重要。 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love this app *2025-01-06, version 3.6.2* Love this app too ### 5/5 — It’s a great app, but.. *2024-08-15* Please create folders within the app to organize collections and photos. **Developer response:** Thank you for your suggestion!
