### 2/5 — Looks great, but claims to not work on my device

*2024-05-12*

The iPhone 15 has the required amount of ram, but the app claims that it doesn’t. There might be a need for an update to allow it or something.

### 4/5 — So efficient!

*2023-10-09*

It certainly does its job quite good with most of the models available. Sadly there’s some restrictions or misunderstanding by the app. So far, it makes my request done fast enough. The only thing it lacks is the ability to make proper NSFW-.

### 5/5 — love

*2023-06-15*

i really love this my freinds told is such a good game i love so much

### 5/5 — Nice Tool

*2023-05-05*

generated greate images with minimal prompting

### 4/5 — Good start

*2023-03-31*

This app is truly free and rather stait forward. It still needs refining and a little more explantion on its setting but can eventually create pretty decent images.

### 5/5 — Very Cool!

*2023-01-11*

I can use this program to create stills or storyboard with them!

### 1/5 — I just had this app last week 😭 how is it not supported.

*2022-12-23*

Bruh

### 2/5 — Needs more work

*2022-12-19*

After some experimenting, it lacks the ability to produce red and black people.  Whiile it is aimed at being more to generate female character, it would be nice for a more balance approuch by allowing men to be more easily generated without confusion.  Also it takes a lot of generates to get a boy and a girl, which is frustrating.

### 5/5 — Great local generator

*2022-12-12*

Can see a lot of potential on it! Looking forward for the future updates!

### 1/5 — My 2018 iPad Pro has the required ram

*2022-12-04*

Developer should know that 2018 iPad Pro 12.9 can have 6gb of ram (mine does).

**Developer response:** So sorry to hear that, yes the app requires an iPad with M1 / M2 chip to run the app, it relies on the neural tensors in those new type of Apple chips to generate the AI arts.
