Now it's changed and I wish I never paid for pro. I have tried repeatedly to add my images to mockups and the image stays the same and no change is made, no mockup, my image just sits there same as it was when I uploaded it. I've wasted over an hour trying over and over with no results. 🤬 ### 4/5 — Play ground *2026-03-19, version 2.1.0* Great app! I wish I could create a custom size ### 3/5 — Background removal sucks *2026-02-16, version 2.0.55* Although the creation of an image is semi-easy (the AI doesn’t always get your prompts correct) and the removal of a background and upscale of an image is spotty at best (sometimes it will only remove the background and not upscale, other times it will upscale, but then turn the background black instead of removing it) overall this app is kind of frustrating to use ### 5/5 — Love it *2025-10-19, version 2.0.50* Simplesmente amo ficar criando 💗🫶🏻 ### 5/5 — Love it *2025-10-09, version 2.0.50* So far loving this app. ### 5/5 — waw *2025-09-15, version 2.0.46* extraordinaire c est incroyable ### 5/5 — Playground *2025-09-11, version 2.0.46* Simple to use it’s a fantastic app ### 5/5 — Playground AI *2025-08-29, version 2.0.46* Great App, Fast and Easy to Use ### 5/5 — Graphics *2025-08-24, version 2.0.46* This is absolutely awesome, I love it ### 4/5 — Love it but wish it would work in the background *2025-08-21, version 2.0.46* Overall the app is great. Clean and easy user interface and fun to use. The main thing that is frustrating is how it only works if you leave the app open while it’s changing an image. It takes at least several minutes to run, and if in the meantime you go to another app (while waiting for it to make the image) then go back to it, it doesn’t work. It shows the initial image as if you’ve done nothing to it. So you have to leave it open and wait a while. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Horrible *2026-08-15, version 2.5.0* It dosent do what you tell it to do ### 1/5 — This App Truly Sucks 0% Recommend *2026-08-09, version 2.4.1* When I Told It To Make A Cute Picture With My Dog, It Made The Image Super Blurry With A Orange Background. Do Not Get This App. -Colin ### 1/5 — What is this game even *2026-04-23, version 2.2.0* I mean it is okay over all but man it is crazy on the review as I had thought it was a nice little game to design stuff but I mean like it can barely even allows u to write anything to chat box thing, how the template election for it was terrible and to top it off it takes like three hours to load in. ### 1/5 — Перестал работать *2026-04-22* После обновления перестал загружать фото ### 1/5 — App constantly glitches *2026-02-12, version 2.0.55* I’ve been using this app a lot for my business for almost a year now, and this app constantly is glitching, has bugs, doesn’t work right, the AI doesn’t have good accuracy to prompts, sometimes you can’t even remove the background cause it throws up an error code, and more. I have hardly seen any improvement over the last several months even though there have been many things added to the app. But the moments when it doesn’t work right for the moment, it’s great. ### 1/5 — Pro im Browser (Jahresbeitrag gezahlt) doch *2025-10-16* In der APP soll ich auf pro Upgraden. Der Scherz an der ganzen Sache — im Browser funktionieren die Sachen nicht… es steht da ständig “unknown problem” und in der App kann ich die Funktionen nur begrenzt ausführen, da ich kein „Pro” bin. 180€ für die TONNE!!! ### 1/5 — How about good technical support? *2025-10-13, version 2.0.50* No one doesn’t want to answer me 5 days already, I write every day! I can’t log in to my account on laptop with Apple ID, only from phone! I can’t even delete my subscription 🤷‍♀️ cool service!!! ### 1/5 — Обман, оплатил и не работает *2025-10-08* Обман, оплатил и не работает ### 1/5 — Отсутствует поддержка и обман с планами *2025-08-27* Оплатила месячную подписку на pro, деньги сняли, а статус аккаунта так и остался free. Поддержка игнорирует, милый бот помочь не смог, а человек так и не пришел и не ответил. Просто знайте, если у вас что-то пойдет не так - вам НЕ ПОМОГУТ. Нет поддержки у приложения) в free плане возможности ограничены, pro план дает более современное ИИ, НО все то же самое умеет и известный продукт с названием чат и БЕСПЛАТНО. Не советую приложение, негативный опыт. I paid for a monthly Pro subscription, the money was charged, but my account status is still Free. Support is ignoring me, the cute bot couldn’t help, and no human ever showed up or replied. Just know that if something goes wrong – you will NOT get any help. This app has no real support. The Free plan is very limited, the Pro plan offers a more advanced AI, BUT the same features are available in a well-known product called “Chat” – and it’s FREE. I don’t recommend this app, negative experience. ### 1/5 — Horrible customer service *2025-08-26, version 2.0.46* I’ve been trying to reach customer service about my pro account not working for a MONTH and nothing. No one is responding in the messaging in the app or through email. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Inspired *2026-07-09, version 2.4.0* User friendly and creative ideas at a finger tip. ### 5/5 — Bad app *2025-11-25, version 2.0.53* This is probably one of the worst apps I’ve ever used. I always get an error message but the message isn’t there. It’s a blank section with “ok”. Doesn’t matter what the prompt is. It’s disappointing. I had high hopes for the week it worked for me. ### 5/5 — App changes *2025-11-20, version 2.0.52* Loved the app before but I’m not a big fan of the new changes! ### 5/5 — My opinion *2025-11-17, version 2.0.51* My favorite app! I pay for Cricut but I’m bout to cancel that I like this app way better ### 5/5 — Incrível… mas *2025-11-09* Acho que devia colocar português ### 5/5 — HHW *2025-11-06, version 2.0.50* So useful for my career life so thanks a lot ### 5/5 — So easy to create *2025-11-05, version 2.0.50* Love all the stuff you can do with it. ### 5/5 — Great app🤘🏽 *2025-11-03, version 2.0.50* Definitely recommend ### 5/5 — Love it *2025-10-25, version 2.0.50* Perfect app ### 5/5 — Incroyable *2025-10-22* Incroyable énorme de potentiel et gratuit contrairement aux autres applications --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
