### 3/5 — Thpughts

*2025-08-14, version 1.6*

Could be better like an ai detecting what we want to cutout

### 3/5 — Is the app done?

*2021-12-13, version 1.5*

Just freezes after adding a photo?

### 2/5 — Worked great until…

*2021-11-25, version 1.5*

I have no idea why, but now when I cut a photo out it locks up and that’s it.  Maybe it’s because I paid the extra money.

### 1/5 — Freezes every time

*2021-10-04, version 1.5*

Every single time I try to use this app it just freezes up. So frustrating

### 1/5 — Not Actually Free

*2021-07-31, version 1.5*

you can cut out the photo for free, but you need to pay $5 to add your own background. worthless, find a different actually free app

### 2/5 — Would be good but PNGs don’t work

*2021-07-28, version 1.5*

This app doesn’t recognize PNG‘s. So you have to crop everything manually. There might be one out of 1000 times where it actually recognizes that the file you are using is a PNG. Kind of defeats the purpose

### 2/5 — Can’t do anything without paying

*2021-05-11, version 1.5*

The app looked cool but after you cut out an image you cant place any of your own backgrounds or even save the photo to your phone without having to upgrade and paying

### 2/5 — No longer free sadly

*2021-02-13, version 1.4*

Used to use this app all the time to crop pics to make memes but I have to pay $4.99 to save them as pngs. I will be removing thanks for the good two years of using your app

### 1/5 — App is totally paid now

*2021-02-10, version 1.3*

I have deleted ur app because It’s totally paid app now. Edited photos can’t save with payment

### 1/5 — Do Not Get This App

*2021-01-26, version 1.3*

Not paying to save cuts. Not worth it.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2020-12-31, version 1.2*

Does not work,nothing more to say it turns all your photos to pixel art. DO NOT DOWNLOAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — Constant ads make it difficult to know if the app is any good

*2020-12-30, version 1.2*

I literally don’t have enough time to tell if the app is any good. I’m sure this is a tactic to make me pay for a subscription, but I’m not gonna subscribe to something if I don’t have any luck with the free version. Not exaggerating, I had mere seconds to work before a new ad popped up. 15 sec ad, 15 sec work time, 15 second ad, 15 sec work time. The app looked promising, but I didn’t have time to explore it. I was only able to take about 5 mins of this constant ad playing. Had to delete. 🙅🏻‍♀️

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-12-07, version 1.2*

Fix your App! I hit erase and it locks the photo, doesn’t do nothing!! Zero stars for your app!

### 1/5 — Ads crashes app

*2020-12-02, version 1.2*

When a video ad starts, you just get a black screen. The audio from the ad will play, but when it ends, you’re just stuck with a black screen. It’s frustrating as a user, i can’t even use the app. I can only assume the advertisers would sympathize...

### 2/5 — Meh

*2020-12-01, version 1.2*

I bought the app since it was only $2.99. You get what you pay for. No way to zoom in on the work, no way to reduce the size of what you’ve cut out beyond your ability to mash your fingers together. So basically very little ability to do any fine details.

### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2020-11-26, version 1.2*

Simply the worst app ever, it doesn’t work. It freezes and it gives you identity theft symptoms

### 1/5 — Pointless

*2020-11-20, version 1.2*

You can just add a white background.

### 2/5 — Only does have the job

*2020-11-16, version 1.2*

The cut was easy but to import to a background that is a paid featured.

### 1/5 — UNFORTUNATELY

*2026-05-13, version 1.9*

This app has a very long way to go before it worth the price. You only get one, ONE chance to cut your picture, if you miss it. You have to start over again, and again.

### 1/5 — Crappy app

*2024-07-12, version 1.6*

Don’t download it doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — Absolutely garage

*2022-02-15, version 1.5*

The high rating is a lie.

### 1/5 — Might as well be useless

*2022-01-28, version 1.5*

Can cut a picture out and stick it on a horrible background. That is if you dont want to spend 6.99. What a joke.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2022-01-22, version 1.5*

It won’t let me do anything past cutting the photo out, fix your app.

### 1/5 — Worked great but now doesn’t

*2022-01-14, version 1.5*

Loved this app and paid for the pro version but now it doesn’t work at all and just freezes. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling and it hasn’t helped.

### 1/5 — Was great… now it isn’t

*2022-01-13, version 1.5*

The app no longer works. 
Once you make your first cut, the app freezes

### 1/5 — Freezes constantly

*2021-12-11, version 1.5*

The app freezes so you can’t even use it

### 1/5 — Ios15

*2021-11-07, version 1.5*

Completely frozen at fine tune step since ios15 has come out. Use to be my favorite app-now unable to use-disappointing

### 1/5 — Crashes as fine tuning

*2021-10-26, version 1.5*

Whole app now crashes at fine tuning
