Just sell me the app up front instead of having zero free features. ### 1/5 — Why the change? *2021-06-21, version 3.1* This app use to be good. You could simply load and image and easily remove the background, unlimited times. The ONLY free app that worked for lassoing images. With this update it’s nothing but a money grab scheme. You need credits to edit every image you load. Do not bother spending your money in this application it’s a ripoff. ### 1/5 — Very unhappy *2021-06-07, version 3.1* I am so disappointed I was removing a background of a picture and when I tried to save it I was required to purchase so I started the process over and kept starting over, because I wasn’t going to make the purchase until I removed the background perfectly and I was pleased with the outcome, then when I tried to start the process of removing the background over after a few times of trying to get right I was prompted to purchase credits. Such a waste of time, because you never know how the object in the photo will look after the background is removed. I wasted more than an hour trying to get it perfect for absolutely nothing!!!! The credits should only be deducted if the photo is saved otherwise why would I purchase more credits if I’m not happy with the outcome and choose not to save it, yet the credits are still deducted every time I start over. That is scamming on a whole new level. ### 1/5 — WHY *2021-05-27, version 3.1* I was in need of a photo but I wanted that background removed I searched the web and this app was recommended to me I uploaded the photo and sent over 15 minutes trying to make it perfect because at the start it told me that I have 5 credits and each credit If for a photo and all that time is said ohh you can’t do this in the trial you have to buy credits the least amount was 5$ why not be straight forward from the beginning huge waste of time ### 5/5 — Congratulations *2020-11-29, version 3.0.2* Awesome ### 5/5 — Credits disappear *2020-11-25* Was working really well so I purchased credits. App was accidentally deleted from my device. New download does not recognise my old credits so I’ve lost a heap of money. Not happy! **Developer response:** Please contact to support@teorex.com and I will try to help you to restore your credits. ### 3/5 — Can’t figure out how to change background color *2020-11-04, version 3.0.2* I’ve clicked on everything and can not figure out how to change the background color. I’d like black and not white. Maybe not an option? ### 5/5 — Потрясающе! *2020-03-11, version 3.0.1* Отлично удаляет фон, мне даже не пришлось ничего делать, фон удалился автоматически, нейронные сети все сделали за меня! ### 1/5 — Seems to work, but payment scheme sours deal *2020-03-10, version 3.0.1* On a brief trial, the app seems to crop and remove background well, but a per picture pricing scheme for an app that uses only local processing makes no sense. I would probably pay a reasonable monthly subscription or a full purchase without limit, but not this. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Junk *2025-05-28, version 4.1.1* The trial version is lousy. Why should someone purchase something when you can’t view your product? ### 1/5 — Website better *2024-11-10, version 4.1.1* I have been using the website photoscissors.com for a while whenever I needed remove the background from an image. I knew there was an app but didn’t think I used the site enough to warrant downloading it. Yesterday I decided to do it, and I uninstalled in less than 15 minutes. You CAN’T save an image unless you pay their subscription fee. You are better off using their website, it will be saved in poor quality but it’s better than not saving it at all. ### 1/5 — Pathetic *2022-11-27, version 4.0* So you get ten “free” cutouts… but then it turns out you can’t actually *save* the image you cut out unless you pay. Why? Because it’s 2022 and everyone wants money for literally everything. Hard pass on this one, it’s easy enough to find sites that offer this same tool for free. All these money-grubbing, false-advertising apps are a plague. ### 1/5 — $$$ *2022-11-05, version 4.0* This app charges a ton of money for the pics you want to edit after you do multiple. The quality is very good but not worth the price in my opinion when you can get other apps or an online website to do this for free. ### 1/5 — This is a scam *2022-10-18, version 3.1* Says “free” but it’s NOT ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work very well *2022-05-09, version 3.1* Bought the most credits we could for our small business. Then Covid hit. Closed our restaurants for nearly a year. When we reopened the credits were no longer valid and we had only used a few out of thousands. Contacted the app and they said “we understand your predicament but we are a business and we need to make money”. Cold hearted. ### 1/5 — This is just a way for them to take your money *2022-01-27, version 3.1* Trust me there is no reason to get the app for this just use the browser, I have been making videos for a long time and I never had any money problems. It is a total waste of money getting the trial or vying credits. ### 1/5 — Paywall *2021-10-15, version 3.1* You have to pay to even save an image, so it’s pretty much useless. Use the website instead. ### 1/5 — Not free *2021-08-30, version 3.1* Not free ### 1/5 — False Advertising *2021-07-14, version 3.1* Promises 5 credits at no charge: 1 credit = 1 image. Actual no credits, no trial. Lie ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Needed champagne spray *2024-03-17, version 4.0.1* It literally let me take a champagne spray from one image and transfer it to an image that needed one, looks incredible ! Works like a charm ! ### 5/5 — Brilliantly effective *2021-09-26, version 3.1* Using this instead of my desktop one as it's so quick and accurate ### 5/5 — An incredibly useful app *2021-07-08, version 3.1* Been using the website for about a year now and it has proved super useful for projects. The fact that it is free as well is awesome! Didn’t even know there was an app to write a review on before today. ### 5/5 — Works so well *2021-05-22, version 3.1* I’ve been using this app to place furniture in my home while shops were closed for lockdown. It is so easy to use and works so well.I cut out the image using this app and place it in a photo of my room using another app ### 5/5 — Finally!!!! I found an App that saves me so much time *2021-04-12, version 3.0.2* I’m blown away. I’ve been looking for an app that does the erasing for me. I’m a business woman and every minute counts!!! This app saves me so much time. And I get 5 free photos. I am curious what’s the fee is after the first free 5 pictures but honestly I’m willing to pay the price for the convenience and stress free feeling this app gives me. I’m ecstatic! ### 5/5 — Trial *2021-02-21, version 3.0.2* Won’t let me end free trial ### 5/5 — Fairly easy to figure out. Thanks! *2021-02-05, version 3.0.2* I enjoyed this and it cleaned up several Pics with noisy backgrounds! ### 5/5 — Great app *2021-01-31, version 3.0.2* Super easy to use. ### 5/5 — Great *2020-12-17, version 3.0.2* It’s just easy and great ### 5/5 — Sick!! *2020-12-12, version 3.0.2* For the Amish people. ❤️ --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
