User reviews

Super App

This App is for me the best app to extract still or live images from a video, both in regard to quality and in regards to usability.
Anyway, better is the enemy of good ;-), I do have a feature request: for me it would enhance the workflow, if I could open the app right from within the photo Mediathek by selecting a video there and choose to edit it in this app. No idea whether this is possible or not (due to Apple restrictions) but I would love to do it.

Paywall

Reported as an issue multiple times by other users, if you’re in the US, you gotta pay up

Response from developer

That’s not accurate. All new users are required to pay, regardless of their location — not only users in the US. Pricing and availability are the same worldwide. If you have any further questions, please contact the developer at bennettyuandev@gmail.com.

Sehr zufrieden!

Super einfach zu bedienen und tolle Ergebnisse!

DO NOT download it with a U.S. Apple ID

You’ll need to pay if you are a U.S. Apple ID. With a Chinese Apple ID, you can use it for free, without any limit. Verified on version 1.11.0.

Response from developer

I’m very sorry, but the issue you described should not occur in Pickshot version 1.11.0. However, since I don’t have access to the specific details of your Apple ID, it’s possible that an unexpected situation may have occurred. Regarding the current pricing: If your Apple ID had downloaded and used Pickshot before, your account is recognized as an early supporter. As a way to thank early supporters, I do not charge them. All new users (those who have not previously downloaded and used the app) are charged normally, and the issue you mentioned should not happen under normal circumstances. Please kindly check the status of your account. If you encounter any issues, you are very welcome to contact me via the in-app feedback channel by email. Thank you very much for your support and for enjoying Pickshot!

A trick to bypass payment

Guys if you run into a paywall, you can try this: look up a shared Apple ID for an Asian region, switch your App Store account to that Asian account, and then download the app. You shouldn’t hit the paywall that way.
It’s been tested and confirmed that accounts from these regions work: Japan, South Korea, China, and India.

Response from developer

Thank you for discovering the issue and bringing it to my attention. I’m very sorry for the problem you encountered. The Pickshot paywall is intended to be consistent worldwide, but we ran into some issues during implementation. These have been resolved in the latest version, 1.11.0. I sincerely apologize again for the confusion and inconvenience caused. If you have more suggestions or feedback, you’re very welcome to share them through the feedback option in the app’s settings page.
