### 1/5 — Requires payment or trial

Can’t use basic features of app without signing up for 3-day trial at minimum

لايوجد تجربة مجانيه.

### 1/5 — Won’t let me edit a photo

*2026-07-13, version 2.0.1*

Every time I pick a photo from my gallery it closes itself out what the heck

### 1/5 — 有料になった

*2026-06-10*

勝手に有料になって、請求された。

### 1/5 — Artist

*2026-06-03, version 2.0.1*

Not what I need at this time. Looking to convert color photography to line art for laser engraving and this not exactly what I need.

### 1/5 — Unreal

*2026-05-28, version 2.0.0*

I pushed free trial, and it suddenly turned around and charged me $39.99!!!! I never used this ONE TIME, and now Apple says I have to get my money back from this place and nobody is responding. I don’t want a free year, I want my money back. Now.

### 1/5 — Rip off

*2026-02-03, version 1.9.7*

Got charged and don’t know what for. It’s still asking to subscribe even though funds already taken?!?

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2026-01-26, version 1.9.7*

They make you give them all your info then want to charge you. Before you can see it it works for what you want.
Tried to cancel my subscription asap and have no idea if it worked. 
So I have to go through my credit card to cancel it.
What a waste of time.

Have no idea if the even works.

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time

*2026-01-09, version 1.9.6*

App is trash. Makes you subscribe to 3 day free trial before you can change anything to a drawing. Once you change it. It just looks like a super pixelated version of what you gave it. Photo editor on android works better. Please remove this app. It doesn’t do what it claims

### 1/5 — Lügen…

*2025-12-25*

Achtung mit 3 Tage kostenlos Abo. Wird das Geld sofort abgezogen ohne 3 Probetage.
Furchtbar. Dann habe ich festgestellt dass die App ist NIX für mich aber das Geld schon bezahlt. Ich möchte mein Geld zurück.
