### 5/5 — Useful. Convenient. Easy.

*2026-08-20, version 35.2*

A super app! Have used for years. I sincerely think you will find this app super useful.

[8/20/26 update. I updated the review rating to five stars today. Because the developers contacted me and appreciated my comments, AND ESPECIALLY their understanding and taken to heart my statement about clarity of subscription descriptions. They will at least consider my comment. I appreciate the calm and kind demeanor in the response. I love Photomyne, it has been valuable for many years. Every few days, I’m mentioning to people the value that this provides. This now makes my original comment below obsolete.

I therefore decided to delete my prior comments, but keep these two bracketed updates, that describe its value. 

Thank you.

[Update 8/18/26, a month or two back, I had a prompt and nice response from the support team: the red app was old and they nicely transferred my photos there into the yellow colored icon app.  I couldn’t figure out how to do that. Then I had the option, to delete the red app, if I felt okay to do that. I did delete it and I have been nicely working with the yellow app. Though I didn’t pay for a ten year subscription, I had lots of value by the beta version magic to clean up original paper very old and water damaged photos from my original picture album w plastic cover on, of 35 years back, I was happy to pay as I go, for that and for the 8 second movie creation of a still photo into a video. Really awesome. It provided much value to my family of our family members who are not here anymore. I raised the one star to a four star. Thanks Photomyne. The comment below is now obsolete.]

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-08-19, version 35.2*

I’m gradually scanning all my photos. There’s some great little features eg it can make a still portrait photos appear to smile and blink which was quite emotional when I did it to a photo of my mam.
I also love the restore feature for faded photos

### 5/5 — Quick and easy

Easy to use with startling results. Highly Recommended.

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2026-08-06, version 35.0*

*2026-08-01, version 35.0*

Best thing g since sliced bread

### 4/5 — Photomyne Free version

*2026-08-01, version 35.0*

August 2026 functionally is good for scanning photos and adding detail to the photos works well. I’m still not sure about the pricing as I feel it is a bit high in cost.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-07-29, version 35.0*

I’ve been working on my family tree for several years. Photomyne has helped to restore many photos from the past. I wouldn’t be able to build my family history without it.

### 5/5 — Great for old photos

*2026-07-28, version 35.0*

This is a wonderful app for retrieving and saving old photos. I love it.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — I paid $2.99 to tell me I need to buy a subscription.

*2026-07-26, version 35.0*

Misleading

### 1/5 — Couldn’t use the app without paying more

*2026-07-21*

I thought by buying the plus version you can use all the features but there’s nothing you can do unless you spend credits which you have to buy again. This feels like a scam. I wasted my money for nothing.

**Developer response:** We're sorry to hear this was your experience. We understand how this could be confusing. A Plus subscription unlocks premium app features, while certain AI-powered enhancements use credits because they require additional processing. We'd be happy to review your purchase and answer any questions. Please contact us at support@photomyne.com and mention your App Store review so we can quickly locate your case and assist you.

### 1/5 — Buy and then pay any service

*2026-07-07, version 35.0*

This app cost and then ask money for any operation different then basic scanner

### 1/5 — Misleading

*2026-07-04, version 35.0*

Trying to find the right program that’s not misleading and responsible pricing

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-07-03, version 35.0*

App might be ok but you can’t get easy access to the scanned photo.  And I paid for this 🤔

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-06-25, version 35.0*

Worst app I have used, you pay for a subscription, then pay per image edited by ai to remove glare, and it charges the look of the person. It gave a blind woman eyes, deleted faces, and still charges per edit. Don’t use this app- it’s a complete scam

### 1/5 — Disappointed customer

*2026-04-28, version 32.4*

I purchased the Photomyne Scanner Plus - Pro version of this app back in 2017. While the app is great for batch-scanning albums, the company is no longer truly honoring that "lifetime" commitment. After a recent update, my history vanished and the app became an endless loop of advertisements for their new subscription membership.
Even after contacting support and providing my original 2017 receipt, they only "unlocked" local scanning while stripping away the cloud features I previously used. Now, I am constantly bombarded with "Upgrade" pop-ups every time I try to scan my family photos. It is very disappointing to see a company treat their earliest, most loyal customers this way by degrading the experience to force a subscription.
Legacy users beware: Keep your receipts and don’t expect the "lifetime" deal you paid for to remain the same.

### 1/5 — Subscription based app

*2026-04-06*

This is a subscription based app, which means you’ll never own it and will have to keep paying forever just to use it. No matter how well made an app is, if it’s a subscription based app, it is a bad app. There is no such thing as a good subscription based app. Avoid at all costs

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback, Mars Warrior 462. We understand that subscription-based models aren't a perfect fit for everyone, and we're sorry to hear of your dissatisfaction. Our subscription allows us to continuously improve the app and offer new and enhanced features. If you have any questions or need assistance, please feel free to reach out to us at support@photomyne.com.

### 1/5 — It’s a Rip-off.

*2026-03-25, version 32.4*

I bought the siftware and now they want to charge me for each photo that I want to restore! I want my money back!!!!!

### 1/5 — WATCH OUT

*2026-03-13, version 32.4*

You purchase the app and still have to pay subscription!!
