WayShot

I love this app! But I have to pay sadly, but it has great details and I totally recommend!

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the kind words and the recommendation — it truly means a lot to us! We hear you on the pricing, and we appreciate you supporting the app despite that. We're always working to make sure it delivers value worth every cent. If you have any suggestions or thoughts on how we can improve, please feel free to reach out via Settings → Email Us — we'd genuinely love to hear from you.

Terrible

Absolutely terrible I have nothing else to say. It changed my face in every photo to the point it looked nothing like me. If I could I’d give this app a negative rating. It also made the background and my skin look terrible.

Response from developer

Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback, and we're sorry the results didn't look like you — that's genuinely not the experience we want anyone to have. The way edits affect facial likeness, skin, and background depends a lot on the style and strength settings, and we'd really like to understand which options you tried so we can look into it and do better. If you're open to it, please reach out via Settings → Email Us in the app — our team would love to help troubleshoot and pass your notes directly to the people working on these improvements.

SCAMMERS- They charged my card even after canceling the subscription

I canceled my subscription after I was disappointed but they’re still charging my card for renewals weekly. It’s a total scam that you can’t even opt out of. I’m trying to contact customer service in vain. The worst part is I don’t even have access to the account they’re renewing so as to at least use the subscription. The app is asking to register a new account. SCAMMERS!!!

Response from developer

Thank you for taking the time to share this, and we're truly sorry for the frustration. Unwanted charges after a cancellation, plus not being able to reach the account you're paying for, is not the experience we want anyone to have — we understand how upsetting this is. So we can look into the billing and account access issues directly and make things right, could you reach out to us via Settings → Email Us in the app? That will let us verify the subscription, confirm the cancellation status, and help you regain access to the correct account as quickly as possible. We'd genuinely appreciate the chance to sort this out with you.

Changes face - uses AI

Wanted to like this app but was disappointed to find out it uses ai to edit the photos. As a result, it changes small features of your face and body and becomes unusable in my opinion. If you want this look you can create it for free via other AI tools (chat gpt, Gemini, Claude, etc) for free. I understand the desire to create a business around this but feels scammy when it doesn’t even execute correctly.

Changing too much

Overly edited every photo. After my first photo came out good I purchased the yearly so I could save it and make more only for everyone I tried after to just completely look ai. changed my pose, face, eyes, teeth, etc wayyyy too much. Every time I tried to fix it or make it do what I wanted it just did whatever, which was way too much every time! Also not enough options for customization of your own accord.

Doesn’t not give same results as the advertising

I got this app because the advertising seemed very convincing. Turning my plane photos from my phone camera into digital camera photos but every time I upload a photo I look weird it completely changes how I look. It doesn’t look natural and it doesn’t look like a digital camera photo at all. This app seriously needs to change other advertising or change how the results are because none of the results I get are good and it’s severely disappointing.

Response from developer

Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback, and we're sorry the results haven't matched what you expected. The effect you're describing — faces looking different or unnatural after processing — isn't the experience we want you to have, and we'd really like to understand what's going wrong on your end so we can improve it. If you're open to it, could you reach out to our support team with a couple of example photos and the style/preset you were using? That will help us look into whether it's a specific mode, photo type, or processing issue we can address. We also hear you on the advertising expectations, and we'll pass that along to the team reviewing how we present sample results so they better reflect typical outcomes. Thanks again for the honest review — it genuinely helps us make the app better.

Positive note

This is honestly amazing 😍i love it so much but it kinda looks like ai but i love it

Do not use.

I downloaded this app to look really aesthetically pleasing, and it made me look AI asf. Don’t use

Not worth getting

AI features suck, everything behind a paywall, not worth it when Snapseed exists

Response from developer

We're sorry the experience didn't deliver the value you were hoping for. 🙏 WayShot is designed to offer a different experience focused on stylized photo enhancement, and we understand that it may not match everyone's preferences. We also provide complimentary trial coins for new users to explore the app before deciding whether it's right for them, and we're continuously improving both the experience and the value we provide. If you have suggestions or feedback, please feel free to reach out via Settings → Email Us — we'd genuinely love to hear how we can do better. Thank you for giving WayShot a try.

Sooo good

Wish it was free so good

Ai

Can’t edit a photo without warping your face entirely. I paid for the whole year because the first few photos were great. Now they’re sloppy

Response from developer

We’re sorry to hear this, especially after you chose to support us with a yearly subscription. 🙏 Our goal is to create stylized edits while preserving natural facial details and identity, and we understand how disappointing it can feel if the results no longer felt like you. We’re continuously refining the experience to make results more natural, consistent, and reliable across different photos. We’d genuinely appreciate the opportunity to review your case directly. If you’re open to it, please contact us via Settings → Email Us and share a few examples. Our team would be happy to investigate what happened and help however we can. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

Disappointed with face edits

I first tried this app on two photos and they came out perfect! Which persuaded me to purchase the yearly pro version. But I was quickly disappointed when I tried it again. Every photo I uploaded to the app distorted my face. It overly edits face details, making me look like a completely different person. I love the concept and the other edits it applies but I wish it would leave my facial features alone. I wouldn’t recommend purchasing the pro version until you test out a good amount of photos.

Response from developer

Thank you for trying the app and for taking the time to share such detailed feedback — we really appreciate it. We're glad the first results impressed you, and we're sorry the later photos didn't hold up to that same standard. The facial distortion you're describing on portraits is exactly the kind of issue we want to get right, and your notes about wanting the other edits applied while leaving facial features alone are genuinely helpful for our team. If you're open to it, could you reach out to us at support with a couple of example photos (or the photo types that triggered the strongest distortion)? That will help us reproduce the behavior and tune the portrait handling. We'd also like to make sure your Pro experience reflects the value you signed up for. Thanks again for the honest review — feedback like yours is how the app gets better.

Sucks

It’s not right to have to pay for the app & buy coins to use it too, it was really good & i loved it, but now it’s gotten ridiculous why pay 2 times more. I’m thinking of deleting it altogether and wouldn’t recommend it to people!

Overall:

The coins are a tad annoying but the photos look awesome!

Response from developer

Thanks so much for the kind words about the photos — we're really glad you're enjoying that part of the app! We hear you on the coins feeling a bit annoying, and we appreciate you flagging it. Feedback like this helps us figure out where to smooth things out next. If you'd like to share more details about what specifically feels off about the coin experience, feel free to reach out to our support team — we'd love to learn more so we can keep improving. Thanks again for taking the time to leave a review!

Doesnt work half the time.

Its really nice when it does work. But wasting coins and money whilst not being able to edit sucks.

Over editing

this app makes me look so plastic and oily like what is with the over highlighting in the face its actually terrible and the ai is so noticeable its not natural at all

Exceptional

Very nicee 🫶🏻

Response from developer

Thanks so much for the kind words and the 🫶🏻! We're really glad you're enjoying the app. If there's anything we could do to make your experience even better, we'd love to hear it — feel free to reach out anytime. Thanks again for taking the time to leave a review!

TERRIBLE

The first photo you enter, the “trial” photo is amazing? Then you input after purchase and they all look so fake & AI, completely changes face, and background. Don’t waste your money. I wish I could get a refund.

Response from developer

We’re sorry the results didn’t meet your expectations. 🙏 To clarify, WayShot does not intentionally provide different quality between trial and purchased usage. Results can vary depending on the photo and style, and we’re continuously improving the experience to make outputs feel more natural and consistent. We’d genuinely love to investigate your case and understand what happened. Please reach out via Settings → Email Us — our team will personally review your examples and help however we can. Thank you for the feedback.

Overedits faces

I am a year paid customer ($70) who is dissatisfied with the editing done anytime faces are included in the photos. If you want to edit anything other than photos with humans, this is the app for you. Unfortunately, the first few photos I did were fine, then the rest (over 30) are completely unusable because it distorts my face completely. I also did the “text our CEO” option in the app & was never offered a refund or partial refund despite the app not providing proper service.

Response from developer

We’re genuinely sorry to hear this, especially as a long-time customer — and thank you for supporting us. 🙏 Our goal is to create stylized results while still preserving natural facial details and identity, and we understand your frustration if many of your photos didn’t feel usable. We’re also sorry that your previous outreach didn’t lead to the help you expected — that’s not the experience we want anyone to have. We would sincerely appreciate another opportunity to review your case directly. Please contact us again via Settings → Email Us (mention this review if possible), and our team will personally investigate your examples, subscription details, and feedback to help properly address the situation.

Plzzz

LOVE THIS CAMERA BUT PLS DO SOMETHING ABOUT NOT MAKING MY FACE LOOK COMPLETELY DIFF THAT IT CAN LOOK GOOD JUST WITHOUT LOOKING LIKE A DIFF PERSON 🥲
