### 1/5 — Just wow

*2024-09-12*

This app is a joke. I think it was created to rip people off. So bad. Wasted money. Not only doesn’t improve pictures, it makes them worse! Videos don’t work either.

### 1/5 — Misleading and fraudulent charges

*2024-09-12*

I wanted to try the app- well it turns out when you cancel the free trial you get charged for the free trial - 69 dollars!  I never agreed to this and there is no way to get help.  Save your time and money DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS HORRIBLE APP.

### 1/5 — Take down!!!

*2024-09-05*

Take this app down, mostly as it is a paid app. This app is the most horribly advertised jargon on social media. It makes bad photos more horrible instead of restoring them. It’s a waste of time. Now I have to start looking for how to cancel the subscription.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback and for bringing these issues to our attention. We hope to improve and provide a better experience in the future.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Epic fail is right

*2024-09-05*

Skin tones of everyone are all the same, same exact skin tone across the board. This AI seems to hate lips and tattoos, way overstating the lip's and certainty mangling tattoos. 

The over- saturation of skin is highly upsetting, I always have to repair damage in Photoshop, but can't repair the animated GIFs. I've even had to change the original photo to levels that make it look too light, just so that your app will not overstate. OVERSATURATION is my biggest gripe. 

I have photos of me at the beach with my shirt off, Al colorizes my head/face, chest, but everything below, like my gut shorts are gray.

Developers, PLEASE stop over saturating skin tones, and giving everyone in the photo the same exact skin tone! Skin based photos are part and parcel WHY we attempt to use this app. I think I'll cancel my subscription. LMK when your AI understands, and ill subscribe again.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your detailed feedback. Your concerns are important to us, and we take them seriously. Your feedback is invaluable, and we’ll be passing it along to our development team for further review and adjustments.

### 1/5 — Trash

*2024-09-03*

This app is pretty much a sham. Does nothing to your photos. Straight scam

**Developer response:** Could you please reach us at support@pixtuner.com and provide more details about the issues you encountered? This will help us understand what went wrong and improve our app.

### 1/5 — Utter waste of money

*2024-09-01*

Photo was worse after being restored!!!!

**Developer response:** This is certainly not the outcome we want for our users. Please reach out to our support team at support@pixtuner.com so we can assist you with either improving the restoration or providing a refund. We appreciate your feedback and the opportunity to make things right.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2024-09-01*

Waste of money. I have tried few photos and the app made them looking worse. One of the examples: black and white photo of my grandfather when he was young and in the army standing in the field, I was trying to colour the photo, but it only coloured the surroundings leaving my grandfather and his uniform black and white. Another one, had a photo of my grandmother which was coloured and I was only trying to sharpen it, instead of this my grandmother lost 3 fingers and her face turned into blurry spot. Waste of the money.

**Developer response:** We would like to investigate these problems further to understand what went wrong and to improve our service. Please contact our support team at support@pixtuner.com so we can work with you to find a solution, whether it’s correcting the images, issuing a refund, or both. Your memories are invaluable, and we want to ensure you receive the quality you deserve. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-08-31*

Paid for a months subscription to colorise a beloved old black and white photo but after waiting for a while I just get an error message. 
Waste of money. Seems like they are playing people’s emotional memories or bringing beloved photos back to life to make money

**Developer response:** The error you encountered is concerning, and we want to make things right. Please reach out to our support team at support@pixtuner.com so we can either help you resolve the issue or process a refund.

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2024-08-29*

Tried using the restore feature on my grandparents wedding photo. Just kept saying it couldn’t download my restored photo. Same when I tried the enhance feature. I assume it’s because I’m on the free trial period, but I’m absolutely not paying as much as they want without seeing if it will even work. Don’t bother.

**Developer response:** The issue you're describing shouldn't happen, even during the free trial period. Our goal is to ensure that every feature works properly for all users. Please contact our support team at support@pixtuner.com so we can help resolve this issue and ensure that you can try the features without any problems.

**Developer response:** We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and understand how concerning this must be. It sounds like there may have been a mistake, and we want to resolve this for you as quickly as possible. Please contact our support team at support@pixtuner.com so we can investigate the charge and assist you in getting a refund if applicable.

*2024-09-25*

### 1/5 — Do not buy!! Scam

Had a trial, it was so rubbish I cancelled the free trail within and hour if installing it. They took £60 out of my account. There’s no way to contact the seller!! Total scam

**Developer response:** We’re really sorry to hear about your experience. That’s incredibly frustrating. Please reach out to our support at support@pixtuner.com. Your feedback is important, and we’re committed to addressing these issues.

### 1/5 — Impossible to cancel

*2024-09-18*

The app is the impossible to cancel once you have subscribed for the free trial. I have tried to unsubscribe through the app before the trials was over. And it kept saying that it was canceling never canceled then it said I needed to send an email to cancel the subscription, so the email was sent, but I was still charged. You cannot cancel the subscriptions under subscriptions and your settings. This app does not even show under your subscriptions to give you the option to cancel. Huge scam.

**Developer response:** That sounds incredibly frustrating. We take these concerns seriously, and I recommend reaching out to support again at support@pixtuner.com for help. Your feedback is crucial, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention.

### 1/5 — Lier

*2024-09-17*

They gave me 3 days trials but after download the app i could not use it. They asked for purchase!  Totally lie.

**Developer response:** That sounds frustrating and misleading. We appreciate your feedback and want to address this issue. Please consider reaching out to support at support@pixtuner.com for clarification and assistance. Your experience is important to us!

### 1/5 — Junk

*2024-09-17*

Even an email to you returns unsent. You obviously are a scam after reading all the reviews .
I will take this up with my bank to get a refund because even after cancellation , you still took money from my account .

**Developer response:** We take these concerns seriously. Please reach out to our support@pixtuner.com for a refund. We want to help resolve this for you. Your feedback is important to us!

### 1/5 — ABSOLUTE CON!!

*2024-09-14*

Service pretends to let you cancel your subscription but it doesn’t cancel. Had to request a new debit card. Much better apps and far less corrupt.

**Developer response:** We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you’ve experienced with canceling your subscription. Please contact our support team at support@pixtuner.com so we can investigate this further and assist you directly. We’re committed to resolving the issue and improving your experience. Thank you for your feedback.

### 1/5 — Poor results and Billing issues.

*2024-09-12*

*Beware**

Your subscription to this app is not managed through the Apple.  They bill you through a party known as MassProfit Inc.  that should tell you everything you need to know.

Unlike Apple which help you manage subscriptions, you get no warning that at the end of the “free trial” you will be charged for a full years subscription.  When you cancel, they don’t refund your money they just send you an email that says you can continue to use the “free trial” for another year.

The adjustments the app makes to your images are negligible and not worth the effort.

Apple needs to remove this from the App Store.

**Developer response:** We’re really sorry to hear about your experience and understand your frustration. We want to address your concerns about billing and subscription management. It’s important to us that you have a positive experience with our app. Please reach out to our support team at support@pixtuner.com so we can look into this matter further and work on resolving it for you.
