PhotoApp - AI Photo Enhancer Reviews

The results of this restoration can be amazing, far better than any of the other such programs I’ve tried. Faces look real; they don’t look like they were attacked by a 10 year old with a paint brush. But I keep running into a problem. After I’ve run through five or six photos, I start getting the message: “Your process couldn’t be completed, you can try again in a few minutes.” But once I start getting that message, it seems to take forever to stop getting it. Are we competing for resources with some central server? If it weren’t for that glitch, five stars hands down!

I tested PhotoApp using the free version. Which requires care in where you click - they want you to just subscribe by default. If you close that prompt you’re hit with a glaring noisy and aggressive ad for gambling of some sort. I patiently navigated away (again, carefully or you’ll end up someplace unexpected) and finally tested PhotoApp . I was very impressed with the result.

However, when I purchased PhotoApp , it eliminates the ads - but it WON’T LOAD ANY NEW PHOTOS?!!
I have reached out to the developer for a solution/explanation. But it is a very mixed bag at best. If you pay up right away maybe it doesn’t do this. But I am definitely having problems. The AI corrections are good - if you can get a photo into PhotoApp to get them done!!!!

PhotoApp does what it says it does. The enhancements are kind of subtle though

My biggest complaint that will probably prevent PhotoApp from becoming more popular is that the enhancements don’t make you look more attractive. Like if your face is already wrinkled from having a big smile PhotoApp will add a bunch of old people wrinkles that will make you look like an old geezer

Also, PhotoApp would be more useable if you only had to watch one ad per conversion

You pay 4.99 but every time you try to use it it take 3-4 minutes of things they are trying to sale you can’t even get a picture started because you can cut off Advertisement you have to sit there and wait to the whole darn thing goes through before you can do anything that’s ridiculous that’s beyond anything you should be able to exit out within the first couple seconds but you can’t I paid for 19 oh one day and in the within 10 minutes I absolutely deleted PhotoApp it’s ridiculous I will never do it again

PhotoApp works perfect with pictures taken from my camera. However it's 50/50 with pictures from my iPhone. But for the pictures it works on , it dose great.

Great app with the right pictures

Very easy to use, makes your photos look amazing with lots of different filters. For the price, PhotoApp is absolutely amazing.

I never met my Grandmother and I met my Grandfather twice, before his death 38 years ago. I wish my Father was still living to see this picture of his parents!!! ❤️

It makes scanned 1940s photo crystal clear. The colorizing feature makes it wow!!

I paid the entire year, I thought it was easier. Well, they charged the money and PhotoApp says that I haven’t paid, it doesn’t let me edit more than 3 pictures a day, plus there are annoying adds every time. I sent an email about this and I haven’t received any answers, so disappointed

Kept telling me it couldn’t complete the process. To try again later. Well I kept trying later and later and it was the same result. Rip off didn’t work. I was trying to restore one of the only pictures of a friend that’s been dead since the early 90s and it was a waste of time and money.

PhotoApp is bad. Bought it and was trying few old and new pictures, old B/W it does makes it look smooth and even tone but chops off the light exposure so looks chopped up and it only clears face not all over and the picture is partially still B/W. I feel it is not even with a try.

Loved PhotoApp it was so fun but also really cool you should try PhotoApp download today or sooner

This software is really not that good. Marginal improvement in picture quality at best. Worst thing is, by default, PhotoApp sets you up in a recurring weekly subscription with weekly and monthly charges that are bordering fraud. I would give 0 star if that is available. Just avoid this piece of garbage.

I was
Skeptical if this would. Work but it really works!

Looking at PhotoApp it says I can animate my photos. I’ve looked all through PhotoApp . Rebooted, rebooted phone, uninstalled app redownload… nothing? Where’s the Animation at?

Maybe one of the worst values ever. Consider it false advertising. I tried several black and white photos and it pretty much just changed the color temperature. As far as enhancing a photo, just use your edit feature on your iPhone. PhotoApp is worthless

Committed & Bought the Life Time~ Big downer! Won’t allow or show any camera roll photos to enhance. It’s just a black screen. Tried repeatedly! Open/close. Phone off and on. No updates available either. What a scam!!!!

Excellent application, I was able to restore the photo of my grandparents

Love PhotoApp, does so much .

I just downloaded this with acouple other photo enhancing apps and i will say of all of them this one is my favorite. I love the layout and the options in regards to what can be done with the photos. The only fuss i have is where it says multiple options, i much rather just see the options. All in all PhotoApp is good and for once does what it says it will and even though there is a weekly subscription its not as overpriced and unnecessary like some other apps. Now thinking about it maybe the better option here is to out of the gate charge a small fee and leave the weekly subs for the greedy money hungry lol. I personally think it if the option of all or nothing came to play after the free trial run customers would pay for it and be grateful to not worry on a weekly bass on if they paid or not.

I can do better editing with my finger on a small screen with 2010 software. This is amateur i guess they want to make money? i definitely won't be doing a subscription $5 a week? LOL! one example is a removal where it looks like it just smeared grey across a colorful pic without even trying to match the back ground. the other i thought to cartoonize my son on a go cart, gave me a head only that looks nothing like the pic or my son or even matching his shirt color! Then, supposedly paying for "unlimited"? after 5-8 pics i kept getting an error message "unfortunately this cannot be completed try again later" kept getting it no matter what i did, perfect internet and all. Like most if these new apps, a big disappointment. only gave 2 stars cause it does even out the face realistically as long as the face is far enough away from the camera otherwise it looks like plastic surgery.

I have a few big issues with this program. The first is that even if you pay for the pro version it’s nothing different than the regular, just cheaper for the term and no ads.
Then the issue where it works for a handful of pictures then the whole program stops for more than a few minutes. I’ve found that it usually doesn’t work until the next day.
The other big issue is in a black and white photo, if you have an arm, leg, hand or other body part on a white background or piece of clothing the algorithm they use will not typically “flesh out” the body part.
I do wish the had an option to allow you to go in an adjust colors, brilliance, warmth, etc. Who knows; maybe they’re working on it.

Some up close photos that were taken in the late 80’s can be fixed pretty good. But it’s nothing like the add shows. Most photos I tried that are from the early 80’s or 70’s look terrible after being fixed. It only fixes the faces and leaves the rest of the photo blurry with a clearly photoshopped edge all around the face.
I bought the top tier Pro version and I’m still limited to only a few pictures a day with adds. It will not color your photos it just adds a orange over the faces, some faces stay black and white. Some people end up looking cross eyed.
Not worth the money in my opinion.
Just get the free trial and fix the 6 photos a day they slow for 4 days and delete it.

I purchased that app with the high expectations that it would perform just as advertised. Delightfully, it pretty much does except for one little thing. While it works wonders to make faces looks amazingly accurate it falls short on the rest of the image. The advertisements make it look like the entire image is cleaned up as well. Items such as whet the subject’s are wearing for instance. This is not the case and in most cases the rest of the image is not much different than the original. Hopefully this will change with newer versions.

I can see exactly what other reviews mentioned. I was trying to do a few pictures to see. Just how it will come out, and I planned on buying PhotoApp . But after two pictures, you shut me down. Now I am leery about purchasing this premium app. For what I read the people that did buy. They are still experiencing the come back later crap. This only turns me off to keep it moving. I don’t have time for this game. Yes I’m sure you want to make your money. I really don’t know how PhotoApp works. Because you cut me off after two pictures. So on that note, I will say adios, adios amigo.

This is absolutely what I’ve been looking for. I have a lot of old photos that really are of terrible quality. It’s really a shame. I’ve tried enhancing and clarifying them with other apps and the results were disappointing. But PhotoApp does it. And to colorize my black and whites is the cherry on top of it all. Great job !!!!

I can only do so many pictures like 4 or 5 before I have to restart my iPad because the program just seems to crash at that point.
I notice the program also pretty much only concentrate on the face that’s in the picture and not so much the rest of the picture.
Well, it helps out and improved a picture overall it could be better if it would do the entire picture rather then just around the face

When it works, this pfogram is outstanding for smoothing and restoring old photos. The detail and colors "pop!"

However, I do not give 5 stars as the program is often "busy" at night. My impression is that human intervention for a reset is required after a given number of applications; this hours long delay is a disadvantage when I am processing many photos.

This is a fast and stable app. It is faster than most enhancement programs and I own most. I do wish the algorithm was improved since I don’t see much difference amongst the base and V1/V2 algorithms. It enhances moderately degraded pics but advanced pics with little contrast or too much contrast will not work. The descratching mode is quite good but can be improved. Colorizing is fast but also could be improved for accuracy. I’m a pro user with the lifetime option.

I downloaded PhotoApp with low expectations and have been pleasantly surprised at the ease of use and the quality of the results.
I used old, faded sepia photographs and the results are fantastic. I now know what my Grandmother looked like as a young woman and she was and will remain stunningly beautiful.
As PhotoApp is further developed, it will get better and more sophisticated.
Worth the annual subscription.

I’ve been using a competitor’s program at about 4x the cost. This works faster and on my phone. I’m pretty happy right now as I have about 200 older pictures to process for a gift book. I still have some work to do post production but the basic enhancements are done. Yippee!

The AI (artificial intelligence) on PhotoApp will blow your mind! Old family that hold so much sentimental value are not only improved but augmented to a whole new level.

The results magically take you back in time, letting you truly see the past.

Strongly recommend PhotoApp! AAA+++

I purchased PhotoApp a couple months ago. PhotoApp works wonderful on photos that have a straight clear angle of the person/people.
It does not make the entire photo clear, just the face and a small part of the hair surrounding the face, while the rest of the photo remains blurry.
I feel PhotoApp needs to improve so that the entire photo becomes clear and faces are not overly pixelated to the point that it changes features.

I loved PhotoApp, specifically for how the cartoonize option always turned out looking beautiful. I bought lifetime because I loved it so much and used it frequently, but now I went to use the cartoonize today and the picture came out looking like a horror version of Pixar characters. It's awful. I know I sound like a Karen, but this version of the cartoonizing is not worth the money, even if it was a one time payment. Please return the original or I would like my money back 😩

PhotoApp is fantastic. I have put smiles on my friends faces when I enhanced a photo for them. I also love Enhancing my own photos. definitely worth every dime I have recommend to my family in friends. In fact I know some who has purchase it too.

I have tried a dozen iPhone apps in the past 3 months to use to repair, unblur, clean up old black and whites I inherited all from pre 1960. Still trying out PhotoApp— only thing I can honestly say is at this time is PhotoApp is FAST‼️Sadly the repairs I need obviously are not available anywhere for cellphones. Have my hopes up though and will keep trying‼️

The clarity of old to new looking is “it’s self” GREAT. However extra options like animate is so-so unless you try it’s additional options that have much less mouth movement, the titles given or descriptions for each animation should be numbered NOT named.
As your photos WILL respond oddly adding movement, SO if you use this option try,try,try other animations and forget how it’s named.
Overall I would recommend PhotoApp. Just work with it.

I’ve been doing a lot of research into our family’s ancestry and it has been amazing when I find an old photograph! Just a chance to see what my ancestor may have looked like more clearly than the blur often found in old photos is absolutely worth the price. So glad I found PhotoApp!

I am impressed with the results. However, there are no instructions, and the application only allows one function. Then it has to be saved, closed, and select the image again to execute another function. Overall it was d impressive!

It’s good to a point, the only problem that I have with PhotoApp is that as detailed as all of the requirements are for enhancing the photos it doesn’t provide the most accurate, detailed original biological facial features of people! If PhotoApp had the ability to do that, then I’ll would give a perfect score: 10 out of 10, 100%, etc.

I feel like it’s hit or miss. I’m Only using the enhance feature to restore old photos. Some of the photos it does an amazing job and is perfect but on others it does strange stuff. Example -if there’s 5 people in a photo it only recognizes one face and makes the others blurry. Or it gives them crooked eyes looking odd directions. Again on the photos that it chooses to do great on they are perfect. I’m hopeful the technology gets better on it. Also not fun PhotoApp randomly shuts down for maintenance. I only had a few hours yesterday to work on a project and it was down and had to use another app.

I highly recommend this photo editing app. Its user-friendly interface and extensive editing tools have enhanced my photography skills. The filters and effects library provide endless creativity, while the retouching capabilities ensure precise control. Seamless sharing on social media makes it even better. A must-have for satisfying photo editing.

I learned a valuable lesson buying PhotoApp without trying it on first. The primary reason I bought PhotoApp was to enhance photographs that come to me with low-res or with other issues. The very first photo I try is actually in good shape, but PhotoApp ’s enhancement makes the subject of the photo lose an eye. Instead of an eye that is clearly visible in the original, there’s a fleshy blur. I tried the enhancement options they give you three versions. One version looked pretty good, most notably because the photo subject was not missing an eye. But when I tried to save the good version, it saved only the version that blurred the eye. The cartoon deal is a joke. As is the “animation.” Are they even trying? But like I said, I was most interested in the enhancement aspect, but that’s a bust. $40 down the drain but lesson learned.

I usually use an app or an item for at least a month before considering to leave a review. I downloaded PhotoApp and after repairing couple of pictures and coloring a group photo, decided to give it a five star. If you don’t believe me how good PhotoApp is, try it for free (3days) and find out for yourself. To make clear who’s leaving this review l want you to know that I’m a retired professional photographer who used to take 2-3 days to colorize the same photo I tried and charge $400-$600 for it 15 years ago.

It would be great if I can see a final warning when I press "Done" button after I edit photos. save button is at the top left and done button is at the top right. I confused a few times and just left the edit page w/o saving, so that I have to repeat all the editing again. Such as "Are you sure you want to exit without saving?"

I downloaded PhotoApp because I had to print some documents for my parents and they weren’t very good quality. I was only allowed to enhance 3 documents before they said I had to wait 12 hours to do so again or buy premium. Furthermore, unless you have premium they leave a huge watermark on your photos. This was annoying for documents but I can’t imagine having an old family picture saying “this app” in the corner would be any better. Unless you’re willing to shell out some cash every month for a subscription do not get PhotoApp.

I needed a way to get a higher quality image for my business logo to be added to advertising products. This was the first app that popped up in my App Store search and it did not disappoint. I was able to enhance the images very quickly and easily. I would highly recommend PhotoApp.

I was so excited to find PhotoApp. It was doing such an amazing job. However, the more I used it, the 5 stars I was going to give PhotoApp really began to fall. The pictures that it can’t do a complete job, make a person look terrible. Deformed faces. Eyes totally screwed up to the point you can’t even use the picture. If you have a 1080p and you want to go 4K or higher sometimes it ends up worse than 1080p. You are better off using the blurry image. PhotoApp is capable of 5 star images, but it’s capable of 3 star images, and it’s capable of 1 star images. It really needs some work.

PhotoApp is so easy to use & works really well! Worth every penny for the lifetime premium version. I’ve used it for object removal, enhancing old photos & colorizing old photos. It’s not perfect - example: if you zoom in on the enhanced photos sometimes it’s almost too enhanced - but it’s great for regular folks with little to no photo editing experience & does a way way better job than I could do on my own. It does all the work for you & looks really great!

Been using PhotoApp for a few days, I love the prospect of being able to restore old photos, however… I’ve noticed that I can’t easily select and delete pictures from old projects. The select button does not activate, and instead it picks the picture just under that button instead. Also, when doing multiple results, it doesn’t allow you to save the one particular result that is given, instead it automatically saves the predetermined based result. This is a bit of an issue because sometimes the base result is not as accurate a result as say, maybe the second (v2) or the third (v3) result. The erase feature needs a bit of work as it’s accuracy is not as good as it could be. overall, I think it’s a good app, but definitely can be better.

The quality of the photos is pretty amazing. The enhancements turn out really well, but the AI has lots of issues. It took me forever to upload my 8 photos to use with the AI. The photos wouldn’t load or the button to select “Add” wouldn’t even work. I ended up having to add a bunch of pictures that would never work for the AI just so I could delete them once I had enough selfies uploaded. Then after finally being able to run it with a couple different looks, I started getting an error message saying I would have to try again later. It’s been hours now and I still can’t run it again. Really wanted to give it five stars, especially for the price I paid.

It’s a cool concept and fun to use but it is definitely slow (4-30 mins) in creating different looks. Every time you add another person you have to delete the previous profile first (in settings). Currently my app is stuck on ai photo with the wheel of death spinning for over 24 hrs.. so won’t be subscribing for it long term. However, I got some great photos, a glimpse into what I’d look like if I ate too many cheeseburgers, and many compliments. I posted everything on Instagram and got 505 people to view my story, 10% of whom requested PhotoApp … great sales for PhotoApp , but they gotta do something about the timing and errors.

I’m a photographer and I shot photos in much too dark of a time of the day. I the timing would be ok, but we had absolutely ZERO sunlight (it was incredibly cloudy). The photos did not turn out great. They were gritty and grainy trying to pull out any exposure possible. I put the photos through PhotoApp and it’s like I rewound time to an hour earlier than the photos were taken. They are GORGEOUS and SEAMLESS. I cannot recommend PhotoApp enough. It, quite literally, saved me!!!

I wish I would have gotten one that had a free trial, before purchasing this one. I cannot tell you how the photos turned out, because for over 5 hours it’s still trying to finish the conversion of my first round of photos. It said at first it would take 30 minutes and that it would take less time for other conversions but it’s been over 5 hours and it still says 1 min left to go. There isn’t a way to cancel the it, and you can’t work on other projects with it still working, so it’s a complete bust. I’ve canceled it, but you still have to pay $5 for the week. It’s not worth the money, since it’s clearly defective.

In the ever-mysterious realm of digital subscriptions, my rendezvous with this app AI Photo Enhancer unfolded like a perplexing puzzle. Picture this: my initial experience, filled with anticipation of a trial journey, was akin to setting sail on uncharted waters. However, the uninvited guest that crashed this party was a sneaky $4.99 charge, delivered with the subtlety of a master illusionist.

What's even more confounding is the complete absence of any written notification or subscription agreement to validate this unexpected financial sleight of hand. It was as though I'd stumbled into a parallel dimension where charges materialize out of thin air, while my trial subscription remained shrouded in digital fog.

In response to this bewildering billing conundrum, I've valiantly contested it with Apple, hoping to restore order to the digital universe. This tale, dear readers, serves as a stark reminder of the vital importance of transparency, fairness, and ethical billing practices. As you navigate PhotoApp -scape, be on your guard, for in this labyrinth, a subscription may not always be what it appears.

*Use PhotoApp at your own risk*
Downloaded PhotoApp to make use of the "AI photo creator". In order to use the photo creator you must make a in app purchase. PhotoApp needs 8-12 photos to Create the photo. PhotoApp needs 30 minutes to create the photo. First try, server crashed. I assumed maybe I closed PhotoApp on accident, I also was using different apps while the photo was being created so I gave it another try. Second go, server crashed again. Third try, server crashed once more. PhotoApp is terrible. You will use money with no return. *DO NOT USE USE YOUR HARD WORKING MONEY ON PhotoApp* I am currently trying to get a refund, I will update this review or make another one if they also do not give refunds for a job not done.

I’m still contemplating to purchase the lifetime full version and so I am playing with the free feature. One big flaw I see on the Enhance functionality is that my kids’ teeth with braces were replaced with jagged, discordant set of sharp teeth reminiscent of the movies Jaws and Leprechaun. This is a result of their AI attempting to flawlessly erase teeth braces which their algorithm probably sees as ugly. This should be addressed on their next update. My suggestion is to have an Erase or Reverse brush tool to selectively revert areas of the face that a user doesn’t want to enhance. If this could be addressed, then this would be the best AI-enhancing tool out there.

They function but have made no improvements and are still very very poor. The pixelated enhancer give every photo rabbit teeth and it looks fake and glossy. It only has one style, and the AI headshot generator is just flat out insulting. It was like they pulled a random headshot from a total stranger that didn’t even look like me. I’ve used a LOT of AI tools and they at least get it someone close to looking like me. I looked like a totally unrecognizable human being. It wasn’t even in the same ballpark. Steer clear. I don’t think they’re working on this anymore. I used it a few months apart and there have been no improvements. I think they’re just collecting money at this point and have moved on to a different project.

I was excited to give PhotoApp a try! Unfortunately, the main feature I wanted to use was the avatar ai. I noticed PhotoApp had 4.7 stars and went into it blindly based on that. After purchasing the one year subscription for almost $40 dollars, I went straight to the ai avatar feature. I was met with the error message “unfortunately, we could not process your photos at this time. Please try again later.” I did just that. Made sure the pictures I used were angled properly, and was met with the same message over and over and over again. Until I just let it go. I tend to do that. A few days went by and I thought to myself “maybe I just need to redownload PhotoApp and try the $5.00 a week subscription” (ik super silly choice, but I was really excited about PhotoApp) so that’s what I did. Made sure, again, that my pictures were perfect, just to be met with. The. Same. Error. Message. PhotoApp has mixed reviews, but I should have read them before wasting $45 dollars on it. Fool me once shame on you fool me twice shame on me. I’ve never been one to leave reviews and I will admit that this one is wordy and probably way to long.. but I got burned twice! Not happy. Do better

I recently purchased PhotoApp with high hopes for an elevated photo editing experience, but unfortunately, it turned out to be a regrettable waste of money. I requested a refund through the Apple App Store and they denied my request so I’ve written this review for your benefit.

The promised features, including AI failed to justify the hefty price tag.

PhotoApp 's interface proved to be more confusing than intuitive, making even basic edits a cumbersome task. What's more, the advertised filters and effects lacked the finesse and precision implied in the promotional material, rendering them essentially useless for achieving professional-looking results.

Performance issues compounded the disappointment with frustratingly slow processing times. Despite multiple attempts to Apple, the lack of responsive assistance exacerbated my frustration, leaving me feeling abandoned as a paying user.

The pricing structure felt disproportionate to the value offered, leaving me questioning the rationale behind such a costly investment.

In hindsight, this has proven to be a regrettable purchase, and I strongly caution others against spending their hard-earned money on this subpar photo editing app. There are far better alternatives available that deliver on their promises without draining your wallet.

Honestly, with all the reviews I saw I thought PhotoApp was going to be really good. The AI photo completely distorts your face and it makes you look really fake. I submitted pictures of myself because I needed a photo that looked more professional. I submitted photos where I looked really nice and pictures of myself where I looked normal or without make up and either way it makes me look like another race. Im Hispanic and it made me look white or Asian. (Not that, that’s a bad thing but it just doesn’t look like me at all) It makes you look fake and it just doesn’t look like a real picture. Also I have a nose piercing and it’s picking that up and adding it on both sides of my nose and makes my nose look huge and the piercings huge. Wasted money and time.

PhotoApp is easy to use & delivers great results. I didn’t use all of the features & options available on PhotoApp, granted there’s not a huge variety available & that’s ok by me. It’s very time efficient when processing the results of your photos, which is nice because not all photo enhancement apps are quick to deliver your results. I definitely recommend PhotoApp. Even if you don’t subscribe to the monthly/yearly plans, it still gives users the option to use the apps basic features-in exchange for watching a ad.

Great app. Unlike some other photo apps, very easy to use. Has all the features I need such as Enhance, colorize, animate, and remove objects or background but doesn’t waste storage space with silly features I’ll never use.

I went for the lifetime premium for full access. $39. It may be fine with ads, but who knows? At $39 for life, no monthly payment, no renewal fees, dealing with ads and limited features doesn’t seem worth the aggravation.

Definitely recommend.

I downloaded PhotoApp earlier in hopes that I could create an AI generated professional headshot for LinkedIn and am extremely disappointed in my experience with this app.

I opened PhotoApp and was pleasantly surprised that I could try the free trial to generate my professional photos. Well, after starting the free trial, when I tried uploading my 12 photos needed to have the AI do its thing, I received an error saying, “unfortunately, your process can’t be completed, you can try again a little later. I’ve been trying and trying to upload these photos to no avail. Another error pops up saying that there are too many people using the AI at the same time and I can’t resolve these errors no matter how many times I try to. On top of all of that, the first time I tried uploading my photos and choosing a model to have AI put my face on, PhotoApp told me that I needed to pay $4.99 to move forward, which I did and can’t even use the service! Looking at my subscriptions on the AppleID, I show the original 3 day trial, which will renew at $4.99, and then ANOTHER $4.99 charge that will renew as well again in a week.

As a company, your tactics to charge people TWO fees for a service that doesn’t even work are disgraceful. I would like a full refund of the $4.99 I spent since I can’t use PhotoApp or its features.

Update 2: the trick below no longer works. I’ve not had a successful process at all today, with over 6 hours of reinstalling, failing, and trying again. I’m glad the devs stand by their trash product, but that doesn’t mean it’s not trash.

Update 1: This is an update to a previous one-star review that I wrote. Do not believe these developers. They have commented on the majority of negative reviews claiming to care about feedback and asking for follow up to “make things right.” They don’t care, and they won’t respond if you reach out. Here’s the trick to getting the AI features to “work,” but it works about half the time. Hope you have some time to waste. Install PhotoApp . Attempt to upload a base. If it doesn’t error out with the generic “cannot be completed” message, wait approximately 30 minutes for the process. PhotoApp will either complete the generation, say process failed, or hang on 1 minute until you get the “no worries” hold message. Eventually it will fail out, even if it accepts your model. You will consistently get “too busy” messages. The trick beyond that is to reinstall PhotoApp and start the process again. But again: it’s 30 minutes or more, then complete, fail, or hang. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. And the quality isn’t great. 0/5 use better apps.

The results of PhotoApp are mixed. On some old B&W and color photos, the image (faces) were definitely sharper. On others, it made the image less sharp because the program softens faces which makes images less crisp. In maybe half of older photos, there was no change in quality. Scratch fix worked reasonably well most of the time, but on a couple of B&W, it changed the tone of the face to something less desirable. Colorizing again, worked well with some photos, and in others where the limbs (bare arms were in shadow) it would make those features blackish-gray.
Finally, one real irritation; I have over 7,000 photos on my phone, and PhotoApp removes the dates of photos as you scroll, and when you save, or if you accidentally hit on a photo, PhotoApp automatically sends you back to the start (most recent) of photos. The only cure is to screenshot the photos you want enhanced so they are all at the beginning of the scroll. All in all, a step in the right direction, so a generous 3 stars. The closer the image (faces) the better it does. Hope there are patches as improvements are made.

I have recently sampled three different photo-enhancing AI programs to compare them, I definitely found this one to my liking. It’s very easy to use. The results, though, were mixed. I want to restore some old family photographs and several low-res heavily pixelated snapshots — some in color and some in B&W. I ran several dozen shots through the program, and I liked the outcome about 60% of the time. I realize I was hoping for too much, but it was certainly worth a try. I still have a lot of PhotoShopping to do to arrive at my restoration goal. What’s wrong? Some faces come out distorted, especially troubling are eyes that look crossed. So, I won’t be relying on the program beyond the trial period. I’m sure in the months to come advances will be made in the program’s development, so I might return and try it again later, but I’m wanting a little more than what this one can do now. Nice job, though. Easy to navigate and very efficient.

I still think the developer missed the mark by not marketing to the 40+ crowd. We are the professionals too, the genealogists who discover the old family pictures. The AI improved when we went back and tried it a third time. Guess third time is the charm. Don’t use these photos too fast though. Thumbs are downright creepy, and you can get hands with five fingers plus a thumb. On the female white blouse model, I got buttons or snaps on the neck instead of the shirt. Nothing I can’t fix myself but I wouldn’t throw these into a resume or social media site until you double check it.

I downloaded PhotoApp to try the AI photo generator I submitted for the three day trial and it told me I had to pay $4.99 to do anything so I don’t understand what the point of a free trial is if you can’t use the product for free for a few days to see if you actually would use it and like it for this reason, I give it one star because I can’t even use it. It was a waste of time to download so save yourself the time unless you’re willing to pay the $4.99 a week it’s definitely not a free app. Rating 5stars so you will see it and save your time. My honest rating is zero stars!

I downloaded it about an hour ago and have been playing with it using different photos. There are some really great aspects like the software being automated you pick the photo and it gives you three options of how to edit. Each option, upon selection is done for you. There’s not a lot of toggling needed, from my perspective that can be nice.

When the result is good, it’s really good. When the result is fair, it looks like not much is done. However it’s rare when that occurs and likely has to do with how damaged the picture I attempted to edit.

It would be nice if there was a batch option. If even that meant the user has to go to a website. Each picture edited takes about a minute per picture. I understand that sound like a fair exchange. However while trying to edit a group of pictures it can become real time invest working picture by if there are a stack waiting to be updated. I’ve already started searching to see available competitors to find batch editing.

All together its a really great software, and worth the purchase.

I use PhotoApp all the time now to AI Enhance various different images. I’ve also used the Colorize feature, which is freakishly accurate, I’ve even tested colorizing Civil War photos of Union and Rebel troops, and it correctly colorizes them as blue and grey, respectively.

One area where PhotoApp really shines is in its value. For an app that is this capable, I’d really expect to have to pay a subscription to use it, but you can get the full version of PhotoApp for a one time payment of like $40 or something like that. It’s an unbelievable value which might not last for long, so I’d pounce on this one while you can!
