A Santa for all occasions! Santa Pix is an ad-free photo editing app that allows you to add your photo to hundreds of custom holiday scenes.  It’s so fun and easy! The cut-out function automatically cuts you from the photo. Next, add your cut-out to one of our images.  These aren’t stock images. These are images we have created specifically for holiday backgrounds. Please note: our app cannot yet cut out furry friends. Once your photo is in one of our backgrounds, you can edit your photo with our editing tools to help it blend with the background. Change the brightness, sharpness and more! Simply download your new customized holiday picture and share it with friends and family on social media. Choose from single images or from bundles like Christmas Animals, or Santa Variety packs to save more. With Santa Pix you have all the tools you need to create magical images that you can share with your friends and family. Here are some tips for a good smartphone photo: 1. Get close up. You don’t need your background, it will be cut out! 2. Natural light is always best, but not direct sunlight - avoid shadows! 3. Eye-level shots work best for most of the backgrounds. 4. Think of the background you want, and use that to guide your shot. Imagine the final picture before you start snapping away!  5. Have some fun!

Unable to even access the Christmas or Santa frames and backgrounds. My only option was to purchase the Easter options. Deleted and will never use. What a waste of time. **Developer response:** Hi there, it looks like you experienced issues during one of our development updates and growing pains. We have worked hard on making the app incredible. We are so sorry for the frustration and glitches you experienced. If you could please contact us at santapixapp@gmail.com we will make this right. Happy Holidays! -Santa Pix ### 1/5 — False advertisement *2021-12-19, version 1.6* There was an article that said the user could use their pets with this app. I have tested it myself and it isn’t true. If you planned on using this for your animals, then this app isn’t for you. **Developer response:** Hi Kitpo, We are really sorry if you read an article making those promises, it wasn't written by Santa Pix. We have been aware of the inability to add pets since before our launch and we have never released ads promoting pets. Sorry for the confusion and hopefully one day we can work on the app to recognize furbabies. Happy Holidays!
