But, not sure why or when, it seems after a few videos the app will replace the videos with ANIMALS!! This is very frustrating & I have addressed the issue with app support, but no satisfaction!! Is anyone else having this problem?? ### 3/5 — Too Invasive *2026-07-12, version 4.18.0* To invasive when they ask to share pics. You cannot say no. Not that that would help nowadays. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2026-06-26, version 4.17.0* They don’t update they just switch photos. Brutally boring ### 1/5 — Rip off- Beware- $100 before you get your credit card bill! *2026-06-23, version 4.17.0* $19.99 a week charge and not at all what the video looked like that sucked me in! Be careful- they refuse to refund anything! ### 2/5 — Revive ai why *2026-06-22, version 4.17.0* Worst app ever dream should be back or I keep play Dream face on my iPad send this to developer goodbye to useless app please have Dream face the green app back hate all of this apps Jillian no apps that crash out or say you have email 📧 done bye ugh 😑 to this app ### 1/5 — I'm trying to cancel *2026-06-21, version 4.17.0* This app never worked for me. I signed up for a week free trial. They are charging me $28 a week. ### 1/5 — Won’t work *2026-06-19, version 4.17.0* I uploaded my dog pic and hit animate and NOTHING? There not even a way to contact them. But they were quick to process my card. 😡 ### 1/5 — NSFW error message *2026-06-16, version 4.17.0* I have been a lifetime member for years and all of a sudden, it will no longer allow me to animate any photo of any political figure,!or big tech figure. When I try, it will automatically give me a “NSFW” error message. I can’t revive any photos of any off the Trump family, or Administration, Elon, Zuckerberg, Bezos, or anyone rich person that supports Trump. What good is this app if I can’t use it????? ### 1/5 — They keep charging me after i canceled and deleted the app *2026-06-15, version 4.17.0* Scam don't buy ### 1/5 — Greedy *2026-06-12, version 4.17.0* Is there anyway to remove that pro thingy? ### 1/5 — Revive has gone political correctness? *2026-06-10, version 4.17.0* Revive is Now blocking any political animation. Which will destroy this app in 6 months. ### 1/5 — Fraudulent Charges *2026-06-09, version 4.17.0* This company continues to add charges to my account after cancellation was made during the free trial. Beware of unauthorized charges on your account. After 2 months of cancellation, I’m still waiting to get these charges resolved. ### 1/5 — Stealing money *2026-06-06, version 4.17.0* I canceled them and they still taking money out of my account never give them your account because they steal your money ### 1/5 — App profile lost *2026-06-04, version 4.8.0* I bought a lifetime membership years ago and I forgot my password. I put my email in to set and never got an email. It’s as if the system deleted my profile. It’s a scam app. ### 1/5 — I have been charge with 19.99 usd weekly and I already request the cancellation. Not know what to do *2026-06-02, version 4.17.0* I have been charge with 19.99 usd weekly and I already request the cancellation. Not know what to do ### 1/5 — Super Slow *2026-05-31, version 4.17.0* You guys slowed it down quite a bit for some time now. This used to be my go-to app. Now it’s a pain to even open it. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — unusable *2026-08-28, version 4.18.0* incorrectly labeled every photo of me as inappropriate seems like a scam to steal your facial stuff ### 1/5 — Be aware *2026-08-27, version 4.18.0* This is an excellent app. However, if you bought a lifetime in-app purchase (total $44) that specifically was to remove the watermark, if you update you will lose that ability. Developer claims that it is mandated by the EU and they do not have a non EU version. So what you paid for will be lost. Apple appears to have no solution to refund or remedy this purchase. ### 1/5 — Shame *2026-08-13, version 4.18.0* This has turn out censored you can’t take the piss out of reform, they are on the side of the racist party ### 1/5 — Error *2026-08-02, version 4.18.0* No faces found ### 1/5 — Not working *2026-07-25, version 4.18.0* All of a sudden I can’t create any animations. When I try it takes me to a page that says something about how they use our data. When I try to click on accept, it isn’t clickable and the page just lingers there. I paid some bucks to own this app but it’s NOT WORKING. ### 1/5 — Scam Artists *2026-07-20, version 4.18.0* I downloaded the pro version and could not get it to work as described. Little did I realize they were charging me $19.99 a week for the last several months. I was never able to create anything and was charged several hundred dollars for a junk piece of software. Buyer Beware! ### 1/5 — $19/weekly charge! *2026-07-10, version 4.18.0* Beware, they will charge $19.99 EVERY WEEK after the trial period ### 1/5 — It’s definitely not the app I bought *2026-07-04, version 4.18.0* I guess I’m confused. It’s nothing like the app I bought over a year ago. I have emailed a couple times with my concerns and to be honest I feel like the more I emailed the worse the app gets. Just thankful it was a one time purchase. I know why it gets worse and worse but for me it does it’s not even fun anymore. In the beginning, I would’ve given it a five. But things constantly change and less and less. Content is available. I rarely use the app anymore because every time I do something is different. It’s not for the better. I just feel ripped off because the app I bought is not the same as the app I get now. Can’t even lip sync. What am I doing wrong? It’s got a 4.7 rating average. And every time I try to use it it’s terrible. Maybe it’s because I gave him a bad review. I don’t know. the app is very frustrating. ### 1/5 — Revive has gone political correctness? *2026-07-02, version 4.18.0* Revive is Now blocking any political animation. Which will destroy this app in 6 months. ### 1/5 — Not pleased *2026-06-30, version 4.17.0* I never received my photo and I can’t locate a place to cancel, so I have to dispute through my bank. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — EXELENTE *2026-08-11, version 4.18.0* BRO PUEDES ANIMAR TU CARA EN FOTOS ### 5/5 — Even old folks can use it *2026-07-24, version 4.18.0* Simple and user friendly.
