Always disappointing

The technology is promising but the apps have always been, for a decade, written in such a subpar way as to make it all useless

Useless

The desktop version would get a 5/5 every time! The mobile app does nothing. I have an image where part of the subject is out of focus. With no selective edits, this makes it difficult, but even when selecting subject, sharpen, focus v3, blur, none of them make a difference.

Really disappointed, especially for £13 a month. Hopefully we will see some massive improvements soon!

Awesome!

I have all of their products and I absolutely love how it has improved the look of my photos. And happy they finally made a phone app if I’m doing a quick trip and don’t feel like bringing my laptop. The quality is amazing. Five out of five stars.

Logging issues

After the new forced updated it seem that I can’t log in the app. I have 1 year subscription that expires at the end of November. I had similar issues before with same app, it seems to work sporadic and occasionally.. but this is a fully paid app not a free app and i use it for work not for relax time .

A bust, do not use if attempting to fix low light issues

No improvement to low light pics and overpriced for what you get

Handling Text intelligently

Text handling is not very well and become garble in any workflow!! AI should preserve it separately first, and finally place it back duly upscaled as a final process. EG City landscapes with Billboards, Trainstations, Aircraft, Maps and Cartography, any there is text in a Photograph or Video.
Please come up with a sensible solution, you have done it with Eyes and Faces.
Thank You

Poor quality philosophy and interface

I purchased the desktop (I know this iOS, stay with me on this) version of their product prior to it ever having tokens or points or whatever micro transactions gimmick they called them, to use the software. I was around when the “introduced” and made claims about it being for cloud processing (like when Microsoft did that with the Xbox “cloud computing”, and walked that bs back haha)

Anyway, my point: rather than making quality software, they pump it full of gimmick upgrades, micro transactions, frequent “updates” that barely do any major changes to the processing units. Just to justify the whale spending.

They release this app. Initially it was credits/points/tokens to use it. Now it’s a full blown subscription. How is that an upgrade for a casual user? An instagram user? I’d pay maybe $15-25 as a once off for it. Hell if they let me exit the app whilst it’s processing I’d pay $50 as a once off. But otherwise, better apps available that do it faster. Because, surprise surprise,it is also slow!!

Love but major issue with recent update

I use Topaz Gigapixel and find the phone’s model version of Redefine produces more realistic renders than other models on the desktop version. With the recent phone update, I can now modify how much creativity to allow and how many outputs (I’m not really sure why outputs is an option honestly? Can’t one just copy/paste the file once it’s exported out of Topaz?). But now the output is stuck on 4! So for a batch of 30 photos, it’s wanting to generate 120 photos?! I can’t find a setting or way to turn it off. Even selecting outputs of 1 or 0 still reverts to 4 copies. I’m going to have to stop my batch productions until this is resolved because there are no other models that support my work and I can’t submit one photo at a time :/. Please fix and soon 🙏

Arnaque

Avant t’avais des modèles qui tournaient en local maintenant tout est cloud donc payant

So bad

Nothing is free!!!

Great

Great app

It sucks.

I uploaded a photo for upscaling and have been waiting for half an hour; the app is stuck at 89% and nothing else is happening.

Incredibly slow, poor results

One of the worst apps I’ve downloaded in a long time.
I’ve been using topaz photo for years on my MacBook and have been very satisfied. On my iPhone 17promax the processing of images takes 3-5 minutes. And the result not particularly good.

I love upscaling with Topaz

The quality it’s unreal

No trial period? Really?

Guys, before I’m paying it should be good to know what for? Even if it would be only one pic to try or one week or one day. Just see the quality of algorithms

TERRIBLE!

You need to pay for Everything! That is super terrible. I could not do anything at all without having to pay! If u want me to do this app at least make some free!

Exceptional

I got Topaz about two years ago, when it was a separate suite. I had thought about switching over to Magnific, because it was the only upscaler of its kind, especially useful for generative media.

However, once they consolidated into a suite, it’s like the team went into slipstream mode, no doubt aided by AI.

The upscaler is so much better, and I recently tested the ones for video, and not only was I able to execute it locally (and privately), but the quality was far beyond what I expected.

Not only was the 1080p better, but the upscaler to 4K did a KNOCKOUT job of mimicking and retaining detail that had been lost in the film to HD Cam transfer.

I then ran it through Hyperion HDR, and the quality was truly remarkable.

The baked-in plugins for Adobe, Da Vinci Resolve, etc., are also a plus for editors of video, compositors, and imagery.

When you get the desktop suite, you thankfully get the mobile application across your account, instead of getting ripped off (we’ll see, after Adobe finishes buying them…).

For now, it’s definitely one of the best options in the market, for professionals and tinkerers alike.

Great Capabilities.

When I bought this subscription, I could upscale up to 8X. But within a few months I was reduced to 6x, then in another few weeks, 4x only and that’s where I’m at now. It’s a great program, with tons of capabilities. I would have preferred to NOT have been downgraded twice within a just 4 months.

Can’t be run offline anymore

They have made improvements in image quality. but they have taken away the ability to use offline.

They have also changed what the subscription was in the middle of the contract. Like no longer being able to upscale past 32mp unless “upgrading” to a different subscription.

Look for free alternatives. Everything Topaz has done since being bought by adobe has been incredibly sleazy. Breaching their own terms on their contact, makes for an easy chargeback.

Don’t trust it.

Changes faces into monsters no matter what I tried
