Revive: AI Photo Animation Reviews

I’m a Community Manager that makes a lot of content for high end holiday decor brands. We have a talking elf as our mascot. Most of these apps distort or simply can’t pick up their faces at all. This one can’t detect them all but when it does it does a fabulous job! It’s not blurry and distorted like others. It does need work. I’d love to see a few more features but overall compared to the many others I’ve tried 5 stars. Our members love the content! Thank you!

Fun to play with selecting songs to match with my photos, but your family might think you’ve off-the-deep-end if you don’t moderate the effort.

Upgraded my review because of observed improvement in song choices near daily.

Quick to compile (animate) your photo to selected song snippet. Easy to use. Some morph the facial features and teeth in disturbing ways, so play with various photos to find best match that doesn’t look too weird.

I love Revive very easy to use and have recommended to friends. I think it would be great if it supports existing video on my phone or be able to upload my own music…
I only wonder what the upgrade can do besides removing the watermark.
Yes that is a question to the developers??…

I can literally take pictures of people and make them sing any song I want but if I can change one thing about it it would be no ads and one more thing we would unlock everything for free but overall it’s a good app.

Fun to play with, but I wish I could animate more faces…I’ve done two at once, but not a family of five.

Revive is the easiest, most fun and entertaining app I have used to date. You can get hooked on the endless opportunities to make someone laugh or just enjoy your own creativity!

My god, Revive is amazing. I was able to ruin many people’s childhood by making the Harry Potter characters sing cursed songs. Very easy to use and quick processing of the photo. Heck, I even did Godzilla!

I bought Revive tonight and spent some time playing with it and was really glad I got it. All of a sudden it would accept the pictures in my phone. I can’t figure out how to fix it! It was a really fun app for a short period of time.

It works better than I thought it would.

I do 2 a weeks for months now. Laugh every time

Esta muy bien ,pero no esta en español y me gustaría poner mi voz a las animaciones

I had to try with some photos but eventually I did it with my dog and it turned out great.

Could be fun I’d the User Interface and controls were more apparent and responsive. Revive needs a lot of development before it will be useful for all.

Not ready for public use!

It’s the greatest app I have, lots of fun. That is, until the last time I tried to get into it. Now it’s stuck on some stupid game ad for for some crappy panda game. I’m mad, sad, and feel scammed.
P.S. I doesn’t work on animals.

When you try it, it stays stuck in the original try. Little frustrating to say the least

Worthless. Worked yesterday. Today, all I get is the error. Don’t bother.

Giant ripoff paid 35.00 I did 4 animations now it won’t find faces and tells me invalid security code

It’s a really neat app, I’ll give it that. Fun and user-friendly enough that I’ll happily give it 4-stars. The thing keeping it from being 5-stars is the constant, in-you-face, pleading for money. If it was a one time thing that’s whatever, if I used it enough I’d play a buck or two to get rid of ads and the water mark. But they’re asking for a lot of money to get rid of it…a lot. You can pay one large lump sum and have the “pro” version for a year or you can pay a few bucks a week for it. It pops up pretty frequently asking you to upgrade to pro, usually after those heinous mobile ads that basically force you into Revive Store. Aside from that it’s a really cool app that’s a fun time waster with a surprising amount of audio choices!

I love Revive it is hilarious and fun and everyone enjoys it but, after one or two pictures you have a long ad then every time I choose a face it asked me if I want to get pro which I think I would if it gave more information about what it does how better it is and if there’s ads every other animation. And then it only let you do 2 and it won’t let me do anymore!
Otherwise I absolutely love it give it four stars just because of the ads and the constant asking if I want to join pro. Which like I said I would if it gave a little bit more information about it. Yeah I even tried to search for this app Pro in Revive Store and could not find it.

When you start, they want you to pay $39 before you even try. It takes a lot of patience to tell them no and use the “free trial”. I succeeded in doing it once and they give you a watermarked file. That’s okay. The lip sync was “okay” so I wanted to try another file. Then I tried again and anything I pressed it kept showing me full screen commercials to download other apps and no matter what I pressed or how long I waited, that’s all you get. You can’t get past commercials to use Revive after the first go. If you reload, it now requests you pay $45 for it. Since I can’t figure out if the paid version has the watermark or allows you to upload your own files or test quality of the lip sync beyond the first one, it got deleted.

I am a cartoonist and if you make caricatures and want to animate them singing, this is for you. They constantly add new music and memes. The synchronized and animation is right on the money. Occasionally it glitches, but not often. It can be a bit unpredictable at times; for instance, select a song and an drawn image and it works. Select a different song, same image, and it sometimes says no faces found. Overall this is very clever and well done. On my wish list is recognizing animals and animating them.

OMG I love so funny when I first got it I felt it off my friend and I just started going crazy with it it was funny and I’m glad that it doesn’t push you to pay so it’s a free app and it’s nice because a lot of these type of apps are where you have to pay and that’s not very fun because no one likes the pet lol. And I also like Revive because it has very funny memes on it, and I like it because it has funny songs that I have heard and there’s not one thing that I don’t like about it. Thank you this app!

Someone had told me about Revive so I downloaded it this morning and was having a blast. Went to show my family once I got home, purchased the week membership to support and now anytime I open Revive it’s stuck on a loading screen.

I’ve redownloaded Revive , I’ve restarted my phone, I’ve turned my Wi-Fi and network off then turned it back on and nothing will get Revive off the loading screen. If I leave Revive from the loading screen and come back it says I’m not connected to the internet.

Would love to support Revive further but if I can’t access it for longer than 6 hours especially after paying for the membership then I recommend staying away from it!

Wow! It has been a long time since I bought an app for five bucks and figured out that it was gonna be a cool thing that I was going to use very often. Revive converts regular pictures into animated and audio tracks that are just amazing. The selection is fantastic and it meets anybody’s music needs throughput history. I highly recommend Revive as it will bring joy to your family and chuckles to yourself for years to come.

My co workers send me pictures all the time to do voice overs for whether it’s singing or memes. Loved Revive at the beginning. Now with all the updates. It’s all meme sounds, where I was using mostly music sounds. The music they do have isn’t very much and it’s the “kid pop” version instead of just using the actual artist. Music is limited, even when you search they don’t have much and it doesn’t allow you to add songs if you’re looking for a particular song for the picture you use. It is a fun app but with the updates it’s not as fun as when I started using it

Animations are pretty solid but does have some trouble detaching long hair from the subject and moves head area only. Most animations/audio are male…need more balance. User interface is pretty bad. Not intuitive to start a new animation. App worked great a couple weeks ago now won’t do anything as it states bad internet connection and won’t open. I have a high speed connection and all other apps work. Paid for full license and now it doesn’t work.

Update: Reinstalled Revive and it works now. Looking forward to future improvements!

Revive has changed my life. i have never found a more monumentally riveting app as this one. i have found my purpose in life through Revive. i can now manipulate everyone around me by showing them these fake videos. i am now a master of blackmail. i get what i want because they are afraid of me releasing the videos of them singing. what they do not know is that this is all fake… all a LIE, thanks to Revive. 5/5 stars. MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA

It’s a really fun app and stuff but there is one thing I am mad about, lip sync. It started to work with me but then it stopped and said to purchase this app pro. This is stupid. I wish I was just able to use it without having to purchase anything. I get it that you get money that way, but don’t you get money from ads? So please devs, if your reading this then please do whatever you can to remove this app pro, or at least for lip sync. Other than that, Revive is good.

I had a lot of videos for my this app and make them and I’ve had Revive for a year and never had any problems with it until last week last week I want to get on my way I had and when you go to update your phone delete everything but luckily I had everything saved in my photos but if I wanted to have anything saved in my photos and it wouldn’t waste everything and it is crap

My dad passed away last year and I love how Revive brought the photos of my dad to life. I used his favorite song to sing on karaoke for the photo and just seeing the animation makes me smile and reminds me of the times he sang to me when he was still alive🥹❤️ Thank you so much to the creators of Revive!!! It definitely warmed my heart during this cold winter season❤️

While I like Revive as a gimmick, I subscribed on a weekly basis to have fun. I cancelled after a week, and it was still charging. I checked to ensure I had unsubscribed, and I was. I figured I had missed the window to cancel, and accepted the charge. The next week, I was charged again. I tried to solve it on the phone by text support, and couldn’t. I had to call Apple support to get the charge reversed. The confirmed I had canceled and couldn’t explain the charge. So, beware that you might get stuck paying a subscription you cancel. Otherwise, it’s a fun and entertaining app.

Revive works well, but the company practices are very deceiving. In free mode, there’s a watermark on everything you produce, and you have to watch a bunch of terrible ads for games that you cannot exit out of until you waste a minute of your life each time. I went ahead and spent the five dollars for Revive , not realizing that was only for one week, so after five dollars, I’m right back to the free version of garbage. Don’t waste your time with this junk, these companies force feed advertising down your throat and it makes any products that they produce that would be good, totally not worth it. I want my $5 back.

As a developer, I can say they have done a great job. The amount of time and thought put toward Revive is tremendous. I love the lifetime fee, but I would add an annual fee to attract more people and generate recurring revenue from people.

The price point removes many people at $40 as people won’t spend it on a novelty item. I would suggest a $20/25 annual and lifetime option. People don’t like a weekly fee, always a monthly or annual it’s a mental thing.

Nothing is perfect, but the people commenting with lower stars have no idea what it takes to develop Revive.

Great job! I love the hours of enjoyment my family is getting from it. I cannot wait to see the future upgrades. Keep up the good work!

Love Revive been having a blast with it. Only rated 3 stars because there are too many ads. most of the time I will click on a picture that’s clear as day and you can see the face and it will say face not found but I can click on a pic that is blurry and one of the faces are cut out of the picture and it will accept it. Sometimes when I pick a song and pick a picture it takes forever for it to load the video.

This is got to be my favorite app. It is so clever. My sisters all got together at the farm and with the time that they had they used it as an antique, porcelain doll and the this app app brought the doll to life. I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve watched the clip and how many times I have sent it to other people. I’ve already downloaded it to my phone. It’s that good- excellent job.

I paid for Revive yesterday. Decided to cancel within 30 minutes. It’s still not showing up in active subscriptions on my Apple subscriptions so I cannot cancel from that end.

I emailed this app. They tell me I must cancel through Apple subscriptions and I’d it’s not showing up then I’m using the free version. That’s not true. It’s not showing up but my credit card has been hit.

I cannot believe there are this many good reviews. Revive is cumbersome and glitchy and apparently they’ve created a loop whereby you cannot seem to cancel. I guess I’ll have to put a stop on the payment. I don’t know how else to accomplish cancellation.

I was feeling very sad but then Revive came and saved the day. Revive has an easy to use interface and the pro option is not expensive at all.
The movement of the faces also does not look that unnatural and moves the way that the actual head would. Revive also has sounds ready to use and you are able to make faces sing songs very fast.

All the songs are awesome I like to make memes about them using funny images, but an issue I have with them is the songs. Like take for instance, the old songs they don’t exist anymore like for example deathbed, let’s play football and shock. The monkey don’t exist anymore. Revive is awesome but please bring the word songs back? And please don’t make where you want to select the face for the image to sing adding faces micro transactions. It’s really hard, and I think cloning 5 to 4 faces will be useful to make this happen much better.

So, it feels misleading, Making people think you can use it as a free user as there is nothing too show that its premium only. There is even a button saying “try it now!” But when you use it, pick your image, record the audio, wait for loading, It asks you too buy premium. Nothing says Lip-sync is premium not even a crown on it or just a little text that says “PRO,” Its also one of the first things you see when you open Revive , just.. make a thing that shows its a premium feature, or just make it free, thats my take on the this, its just annoying.

Revive USED to be amazing! I splurged and bought the pro version. Slowly, they took away feature after feature and made Revive so much less fun. How it’s changed…
1. There used to be a lot of great songs you could use to animate faces. They are gone and replaced with covers.
2. There used to be some great trios and quartets, but those are gone. These made Revive unique.
3. You used to be able to animate up to 30 faces. Now, you can only animate 8. (Why they did this doesn’t make any sense to me!)
4. Face finding isn’t as good. Revive used to be able to identify way more faces. It could detect obscure and small faces.

There’s a general trend for apps to get better instead of worse, but Revive has done the opposite. I wouldn’t be as upset if I hadn’t paid for the pro version.
**I still like Revive, but I definitely don’t use it much anymore due to the changes.

I am not the type of person who usually leaves reviews but I must say Revive is a must. My family members and I have found ourselves laughing and crying at the same time while watching these. You can create new memories from old pictures which has brought much joy to my life. I have shared Revive with friends and family, many who have decided to purchase it themselves. Revive is well worth the money in my opinion. Thank you this app! I look forward to many more memories.

Hey this app! This is a good app, but the faces move so much when we make our picture sing. The mouth gets too big, too. Too much facial expression it squashes the pic. Reface was much better when it had that feature. Too bad you had to remove that feature and move it to this app. Even the Lipsync was much better on Reface that you had to remove, too. Please lessen the face movement, especially in the mouth. It’s not natural looking at all. Anyway, 3 stars for now. Will give it 5 stars once you fix this unnatural movement. Thanks.

Revive looks like it would be an absolute dream – so much freaking fun to use. Until you download it. Every time the screen changes there is a new charge popping up. Every. Single. Time. 😤 Apparently, even with the trial run you can accomplish virtually nothing within Revive until you start paying. The funny thing is that, to date – I’ve not seen Revive actually DO anything! (not kidding)! Well, except offer to create a stack of 48 different, recognizable cartoon representations of me. (still waiting to see ANYTHING produced - other than the two charges that I received for the same non- service. )

I still have not seen Revive actually do anything. I’m flabbergasted. What a joke.

Revive is more fun than it should be. I spent all morning going through an animating photos and just cracking myself up. I sent the Animated photos to all of my family and now I have moved from last place and popularity to number one overall!!!🤣 I almost don't want to tell people how to do it because I like being the one making everyone laugh and I'm not sure I want to share🤪

Genuinely curious? Did you make Revive terrible on purpose I get I pop up for premium every time I open Revive that sits there for 30 seconds and there’s no X!!?!? sometimes it doesn’t show up at all and I have to close out Revive reopen it and wait again? you give options for songs featuring two people that we can use for free but then when I put two people into a picture, you put animating both faces behind a pay wall.!?? Terrible idea awful execution bad throughout the whole process start to finish I’m gonna teach myself coding and do everything you can do for FREE which it should be considering you show an add every single time I fo anything at all I play a song to see how it sounds and get an add? Jesus use mimic instead
