Great option for virtual staging

This app doesn’t require a subscription which I appreciate. My listings look much better using virtual staging, and the results are realistic with minor limitations. Clients are happy!

Response from developer

Thank you for the great review! We built the app to make virtual staging fast, realistic, and accessible without forcing users into another subscription, so I’m glad that stood out to you. It’s great to hear your clients are happy with the results and that the staging is helping your listings look better. We’re continuing to improve realism and accuracy with every update as the AI keeps evolving. Thanks again for the support and for using Virtual Staging AI!

Disappointed

It is hit or miss. App needs to allow you to somehow put EXACTLY where you want the furniture to be with a touch capability. ALSO create an option that if you like what is chosen, person can repeat same option, from different angles of the room. There needs to be a way to credit back when the rendering is not what was asked for

Response from developer

Hi, thank you for the detailed feedback. I really appreciate you taking the time to explain what would make it better. Virtual staging in this app is AI-generated rather than manually placed furniture. That’s why you can’t drag and position each item exactly with touch controls. The AI analyzes the room layout and automatically places furniture in realistic positions based on scale, lighting, and perspective. This keeps the cost extremely low compared to manual staging services. Because each render uses significant AI compute, a credit is required per transformation and I’m not able to automatically refund credits simply because the style result wasn’t preferred. That said, if something is clearly incorrect or malfunctioning, please contact support and I will review it personally. Regarding repeating the same setup from different angles, that is a thoughtful suggestion. The AI generates each image independently, so results can vary by angle. I’m actively improving consistency and control options over time. For best results: • Use bright, wide, straight-on photos • Remove clutter before uploading • Choose the style that most closely matches your goal • Generate a couple variations and compare Even trying a few versions still costs a small fraction of traditional staging, which can run into hundreds of dollars per image. Thank you again for the constructive input. Feedback like this directly influences future updates.

Don’t allow revisions.

How do I make revisions if I don’t like the staging.

Response from developer

Hi, great question. Each staging render uses advanced AI processing and significant compute resources, which is why one credit is required per transformation. Because of that cost, I’m not able to offer free revisions. That said, this app is priced dramatically lower than traditional virtual staging services, often over 100x less expensive. Even if you try a few variations to dial in the perfect look, the total cost is still a fraction of what other services charge. If you want to improve your chances of getting the ideal result on the first try: • Use a bright, straight-on photo • Make sure the full room is visible • Choose the style that most closely matches your goal • Avoid clutter that may confuse the AI Many users generate two or three variations to compare styles, which still keeps the overall cost extremely low compared to manual staging. If you ever experience a technical issue or something clearly malfunctioning, please contact support and I will absolutely help.

Changed the entire view of the room from original photo

First time I used this app it was great. Now I’m trying to use it again but having trouble getting it to work. I updated the app to fix the bugs that were changing the view of the room and it is not fixed. I have spent all my credits trying to get it to stage the room and it is still staging an entirely different room than the picture I uploaded.

Do Not Buy

This app removed stair railings and put a floor where there was a set of stairs. Very disappointed with results and the time I wasted trying to get modifications on the pic.

I can’t even reset my password to cancel the subscription. By the way, you lose whatever credits you have once you cancel. This company and app are terrible. Customer service is non existent. What a rip off. Don’t waste your money.

Response from developer

Hi, I’m sorry to hear you had a frustrating experience. A few important clarifications for anyone reading: • There is no subscription for this app. It uses one-time credit purchases only. • You do not need to reset a password to cancel anything. There is nothing recurring to cancel. • Credits are not removed unless they are used to generate an image. If stair railings were removed or stairs were filled in, that typically happens when the AI interprets the area as removable clutter or part of the floor. Clear lighting and strong visual separation between structural elements helps prevent this, and I’m continuously improving structural recognition like stairs, railings, and architectural details. Customer support is absolutely available. There is a built-in feedback option directly inside the app that goes straight to me, and I respond personally. I’m happy to review any image that produced an incorrect structural change and help make it right. This app is designed to provide AI staging at a tiny fraction of the cost of traditional services, and while AI results can vary, I stand behind the product and actively support users. If you’re willing, please contact me through the in-app feedback so I can investigate your specific case.

Review

I really like this app but the credits thing is kind of ridiculous. Just charge a monthly fee. And also, why can’t we do a redesign with the same credit if we don’t like what was created?

Response from developer

Thank you for the feedback — I’m really glad you’re enjoying the app! I totally understand where you’re coming from. Each high-resolution, high-quality design actually costs money to generate on my end (usually between 25–50 cents per image). I include one free credit for everyone, but after that I need to charge per-image so I can keep the app running and continue improving it. If I offered unlimited monthly plans or free redesigns for every attempt, the processing costs would exceed revenue very quickly and the app simply wouldn’t be sustainable. That said, if the cost of high-fidelity image generation drops in the future, I’d love to explore a more flexible subscription or redesign model. Thank you again for using the app!

Terrible

This app is terrible at staging, does not listen to specific instructions and the furniture placement makes zero sense. Blocking walk ways, living room set up in a hallway. Extremely frustrating paying money for something and it not doing what is specifically asked.

Response from developer

Thank you for sharing your feedback. I’m sorry to hear the results didn’t meet your expectations. Virtual staging with AI can sometimes make placement choices that don’t fully match the instructions, and I understand how frustrating it is when furniture blocks walkways or feels unrealistic. We’re actively improving the staging engine to better follow specific requests and create more natural layouts. Your experience highlights exactly the kind of situation we want to make easier and more intuitive. If you’d be open to it, please email me at v5cqpsj4e3u4@opayq.com so I can review your specific case and make sure you get the results you were hoping for. I’d also greatly appreciate if you would consider updating your review once we’ve had the chance to help resolve this.

Not worth it at all

Does not stage furniture accurately at all. It put two beds next to each other in the same bedroom and does not know how to stage according to room. Complete waste of time and money

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. I’m sorry to hear that the staging results didn’t meet your expectations. AI staging can sometimes place furniture in ways that feel unnatural, such as adding multiple beds in a single room, and I understand how disappointing that is when you were hoping for accurate, usable layouts. We are continually improving the staging engine to better recognize room types and create more realistic arrangements. Your feedback helps us prioritize these improvements. If you’d be open to it, please email me at v5cqpsj4e3u4@opayq.com so I can review your specific case and help you get the results you’re looking for. I’d also be grateful if you would consider updating your review once we’ve had the chance to assist.

It’s ok!

I really like the virtual designs, they are great, however I dislike that if you are not satisfied with the result there is no “do-over.” You have to pay for another credit. They should consider changing this!

Response from developer

Thank you so much for saying the virtual designs are great — I’m really glad you enjoyed the results! I understand your concern about not having “do-overs.” Each high-resolution staging costs us nearly what we charge, so we aren’t able to offer unlimited redos without raising prices. To make sure everyone can test it out risk-free, we give every user a free credit to try, and the app includes lots of suggestions and layout options to help get the best results on the first attempt. Many real estate agents using our app have told us that even if they occasionally need to generate a second design, it’s still 100x less expensive than traditional staging services. That’s what allows us to keep the cost affordable while delivering high-quality designs instantly. I truly appreciate your feedback and hope you’ll continue to explore the different layouts and styles — I think you’ll find a lot of value here. If you feel the overall experience is worth it, an updated rating would mean a lot to us and help others discover the app.

BEWARE No customer service contact info for a reason

I purchased this app with confidence based on the rating. Most of my pics came out well, but a few because it AI were not usable. I tried locating contact info to see if they would reissue credits for the images I can’t use, but there is no way to reach them. I reached out to Apple who reached out to the developer for help and they decided my claim for even a partial refund.

Response from developer

I’m sorry for the frustration you experienced. Just to clarify—our website is listed right on the App Store page, and my direct contact email is included there as well. I’m always happy to help resolve issues personally, including reviewing unusable images and reissuing credits when appropriate. Please reach out to me at v5cqpsj4e3u4@opayq.com so I can make this right for you. Your experience matters, and if I’m able to resolve this to your satisfaction, I hope you’ll consider updating your review.

Needs changes

This app is no good. It doesn’t do well decipher what’s what in a photo. I put a photo of a kitchen/dining room and it put a table in front of the island instead of where the dining room lights are clearly where a table would go under. You can’t move anything to put it where you want it. It put a picture over a window. A hand towel next to a window above a toilet, nowhere near the sink. It could be good, but it definitely needs work. And I feel like you should be able to move stuff or delete things when it doesn’t make sense.

Response from developer

Hi Andrea10e, Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We’re sorry to hear about your experience and completely understand your frustration when items aren’t placed logically in a room. Right now, the app relies on AI to detect and stage spaces automatically, which means it sometimes makes mistakes with placement (like tables in front of islands or artwork over windows). Your suggestions are very helpful — especially the ability to move, adjust, or delete staged items. We’re actively working on improving object detection and plan to introduce more editing controls so you’ll have the flexibility to fine-tune results when the AI doesn’t get it right. We really appreciate you pointing this out. Your feedback helps guide our updates, and we’d love for you to give the app another try as it evolves. Kind regards, Michael

Great app

I am a real estate agent and recently used your app with great success. Last week I had to reinstall IOS 18.6 and was unable to use my backup so I lost my credits in your app. Is there a way to recover them?

Response from developer

Hi oyvaay, Thanks for the great review! The app should automatically restore your unused credits from iCloud if you’re signed into the same Apple account. If that’s not working, please e-mail me at: v5cqpsj4e3u4@opayq.com and I will make it right for you. Love that you’re having success with my app and I’ll make sure we can get these credits restored (or refunded) so you can continue using it. Kind regards, Michael

Worst

Do not waste your money. It erases steps, windows you name it. Then you lose a credit to redo it . It’s a complete scam. Chat gpt is better wayyyyyyy better

Response from developer

Hi Maddie Sample, I’m sorry your results weren’t what you expected — our goal is always to deliver realistic staging that preserves the room’s structure. If furniture placement is covering features like stairs or windows, that’s something we can correct, and we never want a customer to feel they’ve “lost” a credit in the process. If you contact us at v5cqpsj4e3u4@opayq.com, we can either restore the credit or provide a replacement render, and we’d love to work with you to get a result you’re happy with. We’re continually improving the AI so it handles architectural details more accurately, and feedback like yours helps us make those updates. We’re not here to scam anyone — we’re here to make virtual staging accessible, fast, and high-quality. I’d appreciate the chance to show you what the app can really do. Kind regards, Michael

User friendly

Downloaded and gave me 1 time trial and didn’t disappoint I got what I wanted. Could be better if I would go pro on this app.

Response from developer

Hi Rubygolddog, Thank you so much for the great feedback! We’re glad the trial gave you exactly what you wanted and that you found the app easy to use. Our Pro version unlocks even better results — perfect for taking your projects to the next level. We’d love to have you try it out. Thanks again for giving us a shot — we’re excited to keep improving! Kind regards, Michael
