### 4/5 — Very good App but..

*2026-07-11*

This App ist very good but it focuses on feminine poses. Some are “unisex” or for guys but mostly for woman. I will subscribe to a plan when there are more  poses for us guys. Functionality is good.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for your feedback! We're glad to hear you’re enjoying the app and its functionality.
Just a quick note: during onboarding, you can select your preferred pose style and choose to see only masculine poses. We’re continuing to expand our pose library for all styles and preferences, so we really appreciate your feedback as we keep improving.
Thanks for trying Photogenik!

### 4/5 — Well…..

*2026-06-25*

It’s an amazing app, truly. But there could be some slight changes. The poses are really, really great. And the way that it helps you take the perfect pictures?  just amazing. But I’m currently using the free mode and they said they were going to add more free poses, but they did not. I’m still stuck with only two poses. I don’t know if it’s an issue of my app version or if they didn’t really update it like that. I also think that the hands-free shooting is a little messy. It keeps taking pictures even whenever you wanted to stop, and you might have to refresh the app to actually get it to stop. Also, it just shoots randomly not when you look right. The photos it takes does not look like the photos in the ad for downloading the app. It just looks really really messy. Not perfect photogenic vibe. But overall, it is a good app. I just feel like there could be some slight changes to it.

### 5/5 — a must-have for anyone who wants pinterest-worthy pictures

*2026-06-17*

im convinced this app can make anyone become photogenic. it scanned my best angle and gave me personalized recommendations based on my height and size. it tells the person taking pictures of you what adjustments to make so you’re actually happy with the photos. has literally hundreds of pose options and suggests ones based on your background. the photos automatically save to my camera roll, and it’s so aesthetic and straightforward to use. it’s honestly a must-have for anyone who wants pinterest-worthy pictures of themselves. i take all my photos on photogenik now, even my selfies lol

**Developer response:** Hi! Thank you so much for this kind review, we really appreciate it! So happy you're enjoying the app so far, we have even more cool features in the works!

### 5/5 — I can take a perfect photo finally

*2026-06-17*

Love the direction the app is giving me and the poses it is suggesting hope to see more male poses soon

**Developer response:** This means a lot, thank you! More male poses are actively in the works and on the way soon. Stay tuned, and keep capturing those perfect shots.

### 5/5 — Cool app!!!

*2026-06-17*

Such a cool app, I love the pose ideas, and the cycle pose feature, makes it so easy to take amazing photos!!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much! We're thrilled the pose ideas and cycle pose feature are helping you capture shots you love. Lots more poses and features are on the way.

### 1/5 — The price is insane$$$

*2026-07-25*

Only 2 poses in the free version.

### 1/5 — Arnaque

*2026-06-30*

J'ai pris l'essais gratuit comme d'habitude pour essayer avant d'acheter, à la fin de cette durée je n'étais pas satisfait donc j'ai annulé l'essai mais l'application a quand même facturer 70€ sur mon compte ! Je trouve ça non approprié pour une application qui propose un essai gratuit !!
Je ne recommande pas, pour éviter toute anarque possible !

**Developer response:** Hi, sorry for the frustration here. To clarify how the trial works: the subscription renews automatically at the end of the trial unless it's cancelled before that date, so if a cancellation happens after the renewal has already gone through, the charge can still process. That's handled entirely through Apple, not something we can see or control on our end. The good news is Apple makes it easy to request a refund. You can do it at reportaproblem.apple.com, and they'll review it directly. We'd recommend giving that a try. We're a new app and not out to catch anyone off guard, so we're sorry this left a bad impression.

### 1/5 — NO FREE OPTIONS

*2026-06-23*

After creating an account and taking an email, a subscription page immediately flashes up. You only get 2 pose options and the rest are blurred until you pay for a membership. Using the camera feature, you get 3 generic poses and then again have to sign up for the subscription. Absolute scam to get marketing information to sell on, or to con you into a subscription. Googling ideas is a great free alternative!

**Developer response:** Hi, thanks for the feedback, and we're sorry for the frustration. We want to clear a few things up: there are actually many more free poses available than the ones you saw. If you head into your pose library, you'll find the full free collection there, and we're constantly adding new free poses plus new ways to unlock more daily. We've only just launched, so we're growing fast with a lot more on the way. We also want to reassure you that we don't sell your information. You're welcome to check our privacy policy, which lays out exactly how your data is handled. We'd love for you to give the free library another look!

### 1/5 — Terrible, do not get

*2026-06-23*

The app is completely terrible. It has an auto option that is supposed to take photos when the angles are good, but it just takes photos at the worst angles, terrible flash and constantly taking photos so much that you u have to turn your phone off for it to stop taking photos. it also supposedly has poses, but there are only two you can cycle through and they don’t even completely work.

**Developer response:** Hi, we're really sorry for the frustrating experience, that's definitely not how things are meant to work. The auto-capture issues with timing, flash, and the continuous shooting you described sound like bugs we want to get fixed right away, so thank you for flagging them. On poses, there are actually many more available in your pose library beyond the two you cycled through, and we're constantly adding new free poses plus new ways to unlock more daily. We've only just launched, so we're growing fast and improving quickly.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2026-06-23*

Worst app, it only lets your style for only three poses that to selfie and rather than that, it doesn’t even give you any ideas for other pose!!!

**Developer response:** Hi, thanks for the feedback, and sorry for the frustration! Good news: there are actually many more free poses available beyond the three you saw. If you head into your pose library, you'll find the full free collection there. We're also constantly adding new free poses, plus rolling out new ways to unlock fresh poses daily. We've only just launched, so we're growing fast and have a lot more on the way. We'd love for you to give it another try, and we hope you enjoy what's already there!

### 2/5 — gute Idee aber

*2026-07-27*

Als die App raus gekommen hab ich mich so gefreut, weil ich die Idee mit den Posen unglaublich praktisch finde und sie so auch noch in keiner anderen App jemals gesehen habe. Leider muss ich sagen, dass ich es sehr schade finde, dass man ein Abo abschließen muss, um gefühlt 90 % dieser Posen überhaupt nutzen zu können. In der kostenlosen Version gibt es zwar Posen, die man nutzen kann, aber das sind ehrlicherweise die absoluten 0815 Posen, für die ich keine Anleitung oder Vorbild brauche. Das enttäuscht sehr.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for your feedback! We're really happy to hear you loved the idea behind the pose feature.

We completely understand your disappointment. As a small team, subscriptions help us continue developing the app and creating new pose packs and features. That said, we also want the free version to feel genuinely valuable, and your feedback helps us see where we can improve.
We're actively working on making the free experience better, and we really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts. Thanks for giving Photogenik a try!

### 2/5 — Pay or get pretty much nothing

*2026-07-07*

Has the potential to be a really, really useful app. Problem is after you create your profile you only actually get given two poses, which are both pretty basic, unless you pay to unlock more and the subscription is pretty pricy. Can’t really do much at all unless you pay a lot which is a shame. If you have the money I’d say try it because it seems very helpful but yeah, it’s just a shame.

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for your feedback. There are actually many more free poses available than the ones you saw. If you head into your pose library, you'll find the full free collection there, and we're constantly adding new free poses plus new ways to unlock more daily. We've only just launched, so we're growing fast with a lot more on the way.

### 2/5 — Could have been a live saver, BUT

*2026-06-30*

I would love the app if you’ll fix two things:
1. If I choose a pose and open the in app camera, i can not switch to the front camera. How am I supposed to see the pose?
2. The In App camera won’t let us switch the format

### 2/5 — dont download

*2026-06-20*

only two poses availbe everything else you have to pay so much money for

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for taking the time to share this, and we're sincerely sorry the experience fell short of what you were hoping for. That's on us, and we appreciate you giving us the chance to make it right.

We just shipped an update that adds a good number of new poses to the free catalog, and we're constantly expanding it. We've also been rolling out new ways to claim free poses every day, so there's always something fresh to unlock without a subscription. We'd love for you to give the latest version a try and tell us what you think.

If there's anything specific you'd like to see, please reach out to us at hello@photogenik.app, we read every message and would genuinely love to make this a 5-star experience for you.

### 3/5 — The free version is useless

*2026-06-27*

To use it properly, you need a subscription. I agree to a one-time purchase, but not a subscription. Some features don't work, and poses only work with certain styles. For example, these poses don't go well with gothic clothing. Essentially all the poses that exist are for Instagram influencer style only. But the design is simply gorgeous

Fantastic new way to get the best pictures when I travel. But also, it’s super helpful when taking pictures of my girlfriend….. she finally likes the shots I get!

*2026-06-27*

This app is so so sooo good. They really thought of everything. From taking photos, to helping someone take your photos, it’s really helped to make taking photos so much easier and better!

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2026-06-24*

So easy to use and very usefull!! Upgraded my photoposes. Can you please add payment for Russian people 🙏🏻😭

### 5/5 — Love it but…

*2026-06-23*

It looks amazing and I'm loving the way everything is set up. The problem is that the camera won't work and just shows a black or gray screen that switches when I reverse the camera and nothing works no matter what I do. I have the camera turned on in settings and can't seem to figure out why it's doing this. Otherwise everything looks amazing and I can't wait to try it!

**Developer response:** Thank you for the kind words, and so sorry about the camera trouble! That black/gray screen was a minor bug affecting a specific iOS version, and it's now fixed in the latest update. Please update the app and you should be good to go. We can't wait for you to try everything.

### 5/5 — Smooth!
