It’s all just super specific stuff and I can’t do what I used to be able to do with it. Did you let your AI take over the development team? Randomly taking away your app’s choices doesn’t seem like a normal decision people who are trying to improve a service would make. ### 2/5 — NSFW…GIMME A BREAK *2023-02-18, version 2.4.5* I’m 81 years old…my workspace is a recliner in my living room. My job is keeping myself interested enough to stay awake until bedtime. A bust or a butt isn’t safe? And I should pay for the privilege of not seeing a nude? Something I can see a couple of blocks away at MoMA… what kind of children are you raising? Ever take them to museums. Consider yourself deleted… ### 3/5 — Lovely.. but the software!! 😥 *2022-10-07* I absolutely adore how the ai photos turn out but I have some massive issues with the app. 1. When I click “cartoon” or any other face that is not “realistic” it will 9 times out of 10 still make the face realistic. The styles you choose hardly work, the only one I’ve had hardly any issues with this is “art nouveau”. 2. It takes forever. I understand that part of the slowness is due to not having premium but it quite literally takes up to FIVE MINUTES 90% of the time. It gets super tedious and I find that I have to close the app and reopen it in order for it to go any quicker. Other than these two issues, the app is amazing and I love the results of the ai. I will rate it higher when these problems are fixed. Thank you! **Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for your review! As for the issue, please report it via info@rosebudai.com (Synth Bug) or our Discord Server, in #synth-bugs channel: https://discord.gg/vEJ2hkzgpg. We will investigate it asap. Looking forward to hearing from you! ### 2/5 — Bad glitch for IOS 16 *2022-09-25* So I was trying to make a character in this app and when I tried to click the create button it didn’t work it just said to write whatever you wanted, bad glitch, Please fix **Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for your review! We are sorry about the issue you're experiencing, please report it via info@rosebudai.com or our Discord Server, in #synth-bugs channel: https://discord.gg/vEJ2hkzgpg. We will investigate it asap. Looking forward to hearing from you! ### 4/5 — One issue so far *2022-09-21* Hi! Amazing app with vivid imagery that is astounding. My only complaint it tells me please start an account. I am happy to but it keeps sending me to a link that is not recognized nor does the e-mail sent to to confirm my subscription do anything. How do I get around this issue please? I would love to mix my OG digital art with ai art from your app but need that account. Thanks **Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for your review! We are sorry about the issue you're experiencing, please report it via info@rosebudai.com or our Discord Server, in #synth-bugs channel: https://discord.gg/vEJ2hkzgpg. We will investigate it asap. Looking forward to hearing from you! ### 4/5 — Nice *2022-09-14, version 2.4.2* I’m glad so far there are not any ads The only reason it is not a 5 star review is because it’s a bit slow loading some times ### 3/5 — Amazing but prompts allowed are too short *2022-09-13, version 2.4.2* I enjoyed having access to this app. Many of its competitors are waitlisting people. The prompt allows is too short which is very limiting. Can this be addressed please? ### 4/5 — Enjoyable *2022-09-13, version 2.4.2* I’ve used this app since May and have made over 20k images with it. Skilled user but have yet to try the pro version. Looking to be able to remove my watermarks with the latest update. Want to figure out how to sign in properly and what the pro version costs. Bring back a few of the old styles 🥺. Artistic really worked well for many uses. Member of discord. Recommend giving this a try. Tip for new users. If you’re creating faces remember the styles can wander / combine and to make minor alterations to your input to adjust things like clarity and traits / facial features. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2022-08-07, version 2.1.0* I waited for more than 2 minutes and nothing happened ### 3/5 — White Washed *2022-07-28* I will type in anyone described as not white, yet they still end up being white washed, and often still white altogether! Wether the person be Asian, Black, Hispanic, etc… it does not usually recognize these terms. This seriously needs fixed. I was making Disney Princesses, but evil, like Cinderella, Belle, Mulan, Jasmine, Anna/Elsa, Tiana, etc.. Any time I typed in Tiana, it was always green eyes because her character is associated with green in her movie. It did the same with Jasmine, gave her blue eyes. They both have brown eyes, but different shades of brown. With any character I make up, if say they are anything but white, I have to type in different ethnic features for them to show up. I have to say dark brown skin to get a medium brown skin, which is really messed up. You can’t even imagine how hard it is to figure out how to get a character with really dark skin. **Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for your review! As for the issue, please report it via our Discord Server, in #synth-bugs channel: https://discord.gg/vEJ2hkzgpg. We will investigate it asap. Looking forward to hearing from you! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Shlt *2026-03-09* Dosnt work ### 1/5 — Broken Update? *2025-09-09* When I type in a prompt and select a category, it goes into seek mode indefinitely—never returning a response. Not even an error message. Issue exists on iPhone and iPad, and persists with complex prompts, and even simple ones (like forest). Also I can’t see a link to tech support, so I hope the devs see this and fix it. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work at all *2024-09-03, version 2.4.8* I’ve tried this app multiple times and have waited up to 30 minutes for it to generate and it never actually generated anything. ### 1/5 — Trash *2024-06-03* This thing is useless. It never loads anything. I choose the style then it goes to the loading screen with all the ‘funny’ phrases on it. That’s it. Nothing ever loads. I’ve waited 15+ min and nothing generates. I tried simple prompts like ‘stick figure’ and still nothing. I even chose one of their suggested prompts and it still never loads. Why wouldn’t you put a progress bar on that loading screen? Maybe make it work, that would be cool. ### 1/5 — My review *2024-02-11, version 2.4.8* It takes ages to load! I haven’t ever even gotten my last result in AI I’ve only been left waiting ### 1/5 — Sick of the rip off! HOW TO GET REFUND REQUESTED IMMEDIATELY *2022-12-10* I purchased this app MONTHS AGO and can’t use it 3/4 of the time because it is constantly on a loop asking me for my email then sending me a link THAT DOESN’T WORK to my email. Constant looping NO USING. Give me back my money or make your app work without constantly having to link to it from email and now even that has stopped working. **Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for your review! We are sorry about the issue you're experiencing, please report it via info@rosebudai.com or our Discord Server, in #synth-bugs channel: https://discord.gg/vEJ2hkzgpg. We will investigate it asap. Looking forward to hearing from you! ### 1/5 — Worst I’ve tested so far *2022-11-29* This app has the dubious honor of being among the worst I’ve tested, which is hundreds. Regardless of what I type all it will render is head shots, unless there is no human in the scene at all. Other things which are now par for the course and notably missing here: 1. Aspect ratio choices 2. Image2image 3. Inpainting 4. Multiple renders 5. Room to type a prompt? This app has the shortest limit on prompts I’ve ever seen, looks to be about 15 words. The longest I’ve seen? 2000. It should be 50 words absolute minimum. 6. Missing styles: choices like “barbarian” are not a style, you need things like HDR, illustration, photo real, comic, cyberpunk etc **Developer response:** Hello there, thank you for your honest feedback. We are sorry to hear you’re not happy with our app. As for your comments, please share it via info@rosebudai.com (Synth Bug) or our Discord Server, in #synth-bugs channel: https://discord.gg/vEJ2hkzgpg. ### 1/5 — Don’t enable to run process *2022-09-28* The app don’t enable the run button. Just select the style and type the prompt. And after this nothing works or progress. ### 1/5 — Misleading. Can’t remove watermark without paying. *2022-09-21* This app is very misleading. Click on erase watermark and it says sign up, bypassing Apple’s privacy. After verifying your email it has a screen where you need to subscribe to remove the watermark. Terribly that screen deceptively doesn’t even tell you the price. You have to actually click on a button which take you direct to the subscription purchase. Shady. **Developer response:** Hello there, thank you for your honest feedback. We are sorry to hear you’re not happy with our app. As for the issue, please report it via info@rosebudai.com (Synth Bug) or our Discord Server, in #synth-bugs channel: https://discord.gg/vEJ2hkzgpg. ### 1/5 — Buggy *2022-09-15, version 2.4.2* I paid for membership, and the app is so buggy it won’t allow you to enter prompts—giant waste of time and money. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — So far really incredible no words just really good thumbs up *2023-05-02, version 2.4.8* Yes ### 5/5 — Hmmmph *2023-04-16* I love this app but most recently they added a gaming category and it is currently the only one available... and if i type in a description it never finishes searching ### 5/5 — Easy to use and really fun *2023-01-04, version 2.4.4* App is super easy to use and a lot of fun to create u inquest images ### 5/5 — Very useful! :) *2022-10-03* I am not the best at drawing. Synth has opened up pathways that help me greatly without actually having to draw :) 😂✍🏾 Thank you to the developers of Synth! :) **Developer response:** Hello there, thank you so much for your positive review ❤️ We'd love you to join our Discord Community: https://discord.gg/6dh5vbWw2S ### 5/5 — Amazing App, but stopped working on iOS16 *2022-09-25, version 2.4.2* An amazing app, but once upgrade to iOS16 it stops working… cannot submit sentence to create the AI. ### 5/5 — awesome *2022-09-19, version 2.4.2* this is great for quick concepts for projects or just making very polished art. after trying a few apps, this is definitely the best one i’ve used. ### 5/5 — Great AI app! *2022-09-18* Out of all the AI art apps, this is definitely my favorite. It is a very easy app to use, and 90% of the time the art comes out looking like what I imagined. My favorite thing to do is take characters from books and add their features/try to say “Name” from “Book Name” and see if anything legible appears. I would like the option though to rewind if the AI takes the art to a gunked up place when it finishes, whereas in the middle it looked nicer and more polished. Of course I believe in Synthia’s holy AI but I would love a feature such as that! Otherwise I love this app and recommend it. Definitely excited to see future updates as well and see how far the app comes. **Developer response:** Thanks for your support! We'd love you to join our Discord Community: https://discord.gg/6dh5vbWw2S ### 5/5 — Amazing Potential *2022-08-14* This app is rather well-developed for one that seems to be in its days of early development. Easy 5-Star from me. There are some things I’d like to suggest, though. -More racial options. -Make the filters (anime, artistic, etc.) more extreme to better differentiate the styles. -Raise the character limit so we can better describe the art we wish to produce. -The AI recognizes more described hairstyles and jewelry. Anyways, fantastic job! I came searching for this app amid the trend of AI art, and it didn’t fail to impress! I hope to see where this app goes in the future. **Developer response:** Thank you for 5 stars! Thanks for your honest feedback! We will take your suggestions into consideration! ❤️ Join our Discord Community and share your creations with us: https://discord.gg/6dh5vbWw2S ### 4/5 — Synth.run *2023-05-31, version 2.4.8* It seems to be from the creators of synth.run. A lot of different styles built-in. The pixel art style is not that great but you can create some interesting artwork with the other styles. A little slower than other art generators. ### 4/5 — 4 out of 5 But That One Star Off Is Important *2023-05-08* I’ve been using this app for quite some time, since it was first new and I used to love it! The variety of styles you can pick are great and the renderings are beautiful. My only problem is that for some reason, the app is stuck at the Gaming tab. I can only choose sub-styles under the Gaming tab and there’s no way to back out to the main screen anymore. I’ve tried deleting and reinstalling the app and the beginning tutorial happens but then it jumps straight to Gaming again. So my choices for using this app are now severely limited and there’s no intuitive way to fix the problem so I took a star off --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
