### 4/5 — Good program for editing

*2026-09-02, version 5.8.11*

I love what this program does for my photos.  The fix smile exaggerates a little too much.

### 3/5 — Loving it but…

*2026-08-31, version 5.8.12*

I just got the app today and every 5 minutes I’m being asked to leave a review. Here, I hope it stops now.

### 3/5 — Purchased but then I pay yearly?

*2026-08-28, version 5.8.11*

Really irritating because I bought the app full out and then they changed to a subscription plan so now I have to pay yearly or monthly for something I already paid for. So. Low stars for that. The app works great and if it weren’t for that I’d give 5 for functioning.

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2026-08-27, version 5.8.11*

Perfect tool

### 5/5 — Exceptional

*2026-08-27, version 5.8.11*

Such a wonderful app does exactly what I needed to do when I needed to do it.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-08-27, version 5.8.11*

I use this all the time—super easy and well designed

### 2/5 — I am Angry

*2026-08-26, version 5.8.11*

I bought this app when you didn’t have to have a subscription so needless to say I am NOT happy. I would have never bought it. Now I am stuck with something I can’t even use

### 5/5 — Only the best is used

*2026-08-26, version 5.8.11*

This is the only app that appeals to edit photos and it’s so appreciated

### 5/5 — Brilliant app, I use it all the time to touch up my photos

*2026-08-24, version 5.8.8*

It does most things brilliantly And it’s definitely my app of choice for photo editing. I wanted to knock off half a star because the smart scenes and magic edit aren’t the best, they can’t manipulate your appearance without changing the actual features. But I think that’s still in its early stages so not worth taking off any stars.

### 5/5 — Good .but

*2026-08-23, version 5.8.11*

Cost prohibitive

### 4/5 — Needs further AI refinement

*2026-08-23, version 5.8.8*

While the app’s devs are to be applauded for their continuous improvements, the quality of the AI image regeneration from the original source photo needs to be much higher especially since it’s a paid feature.

### 5/5 — Excelente

*2026-08-23*

Muito bom, custo benefício

**Developer response:** Obrigado pela avaliação! Ficamos contentes em saber que você considera o TouchRetouch excelente e com bom custo-benefício.

### 1/5 — Huge Bloated App!

*2026-08-31, version 5.8.12*

Installed app size is over 891MB!
They have also cast aside the user base that paid outright for their app, the very same users that helped the app become  successful enough to attract subscription customers. 🐑
Re your feedback, it may only download additional files once, however the app still takes up the size quoted.

### 1/5 — The best app/ new update changed everything

*2026-08-29, version 5.8.11*

My favorite app and worth every penny! Does everything you can imagine and more. and with the latest update and new features, you can remove even the most meticulous things from the photo. It has now become one of my favorite features 🫶🏼

Update : Aug. 29, 2026 
The latest update changed everything for me. I bought this app years ago, around 2016/2017 when you purchased one time, use forever. With the latest update I can’t use no tools because it is asking me to upgrade! Really bummed as a long time user.

### 1/5 — Crashes constantly

*2026-08-27, version 5.8.11*

As soon as I upgraded it began crashing every time I open it.  Total waste of money & time.

### 1/5 — Restyles instead of editing too fake

*2026-08-26, version 5.8.11*

Everything I have attempted looks way too fake and AI-ish and unnatural- very disappointing

### 1/5 — New update ruined this app!!!!!!!

*2026-08-25, version 5.8.11*

I’ve been using this app for years and it used to be one of my favorites—but the latest update completely ruined it. What was once a simple, intuitive “touch and it disappears” tool now requires an extra step every single time. Having to tap “Go” after every edit turns something that used to take seconds into a frustrating, time-consuming process.

Please fix!

### 1/5 — A great app ruined by greed

*2026-08-25, version 5.8.11*

I’ve been using this app for years to do simple touch-ups and the simple edits were free. Now I have to pay for those simple edits, and with a SUBSCRIPTION no less. Why not a one-time purchase? I’d be more willing to pay that. There are far too many apps asking for a subscription.

### 1/5 — Huge Bloated App!

*2026-08-24, version 5.8.11*

Installed app size is over 892MB!
They have also cast aside the user base that paid outright for their app, the very same users that helped the app become  successful enough to attract subscription customers. 🐑🐑🐑

### 1/5 — Awful

*2026-08-23, version 5.8.11*

I bought a lifetime version and you guys made the app unusable without the subscription. It keeps asking for me to subscribe when I do anything.

### 1/5 — Huge Bloated App!

*2026-08-19, version 5.8.10*

Over 893MB install size!
They have also cast aside the user base that paid outright for their app and making the developers successful enough to now attract subscription customers. 🐑🐑🐑

### 1/5 — About the app

*2026-08-18, version 5.8.10*

It’s not even that good why it not free like before 🤦🏽‍♀️

I farted and it tickled

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2026-08-30, version 5.8.11*

Great product

### 5/5 — Best editing tool for removing things.

*2026-08-29, version 5.8.11*

I also have the Airbrush app, paid subscription, which is great for certain things. But Retouch is better at other edits. I pay for this subscription as well because it’s worth it!

### 5/5 — A Powerful Yet Easy To Use Tool

*2026-08-29, version 5.8.11*

The immensely wide variety of photo issues I can fix with this app is enormous.  Myself and others find it far easier to use than most any photo editing app is fantastic and the quality of the apps Performance is exceptional.

### 5/5 — Love it!
