Dawn AI - Avatar generator Reviews

by Dude22224

The subscription services are beyond ridiculous at this point. A person can’t download a single app without it saying “hey bro, just pay $5-$20 per month”. DawnAI charges $20 per month for such a silly niche service and it takes the joy out of owning a smartphone these days. I should be able to own more than 5 apps without them all costing me a combined $100 per month, on top of my phone bill, on top of my car insurance, on top of my gas usage, on top of my rent, on top of my groceries, and on top of my pre-existing subscription services that are actually worth paying for and have existed since before the subscription service outbreak. If you want a one-time 99¢ charge for DawnAI , fine, because that’s the way it’s always been—but no rational human is paying $5 per week. Procreate is an app that keeps on giving hours of practice and entertainment for like $10 on my iPad and there are no subscriptions. What does DawnAI do for $5 per week?

Let’s bank on narcissism of people who will be embarrassed by the output in the future, especially by their own children, calling them losers… Instead of for instance, allowing the old Don AI to generate some half decent, Robert mother wells, for instance… You see what I mean? Developers? You’re making money in the wrong way now you have ruined a good thing, that wasn’t that great to begin with… Still, you have to weed out all the garbage…LOSERS!… You could sell and an abstraction machine alone, which would hide all the AI idiocy for quite a bit of money as a standalone one off purchase? Give me a Robert Motherwell generator get the rights from his people right copy rights then give me all commercial rights to my output, then I would buy it for 100 flat just for a single artist generator and you could do this instead of subscriptions and generate Winslow homers René, Magritte, etc. etc. and please include the national park system information, photography wise to translate into art!… Big money, big money

At first I thought it was cool and better than most Ai apps, the subscription fee I felt was reasonable, until you realize you’re paying a subscription for nothing, you get “10 credits a day” even with the subscription, once it’s over you have to pay $1 for every pack you want to see. Not to mention I still haven’t received my new 10 credits in 2 days. so I basically paid a subscription for an unusable app that REQUIRES you to pay for it to work. Oh and you DON’T get a refund. Trust me I tried with apple. Stay away from money stealing apps. You can easily use this software for free on a computer. As well as any other Ai app that charges subscription fees like chatpgt type apps, they are charging for a service that is completely FREE on your web browser. BE AWARE YOU ARE GIVING MONEY FOR A FREE SERVICE TO SOME RANDOM PERSON WHO DECIDED THEY CAN STEAL MONEY FROM PEOPLE WITH AN APP CONCEPT. They do not use the money raised to better DawnAI . Rather than to farm money off you fools and shut down DawnAI when they feel they’ve drained enough of it. There’s a reason why this type of app is trending. $$$ don’t be blind. It’s FREE ONLINE.

Don’t waste your time or money with DawnAI. I’m using the paid pro version of dream, Unless you enjoy dealing with constant crashing. I’m using the latest iPad with the latest software version, and it never fails to crash after about the 4th or 5th art variation I type, I can always tell when it’s about to crash because after I hit the generate button, when the set of 4 images are running through their process they will just give that purple color and just keep running their process without actually showing any of the images, and the BAMM !!! DawnAI crashes, and now I have to restart the whole process all over again, and have to type in all my search parameters, that is if I can remember them all because the crash completely wipes out everything, and you gotta start all over. It’s just a stupid waste of time

by Chachaxavier

Honestly didn’t expect much but seriously it wasn’t even close, it had me upload 4 selfies, took forever to render and even at that, couldn’t make a single image even remotely look like me. Looked like pictures of me if I filtered them through the ring. Wouldn’t let me retake the selfies after the fact or upload more pictures (even though I know they are clear, I have an iPhone 13).

Long story short it was not impressive for photorealistic pictures of myself. DawnAI sucked. Now if you want an astronaut wearing a dummy hat on a sandwich that’s different. But I have no use for random renderings of crap. DawnAI ultimately would have been better if it just directed a bit better and allowed you to go back to the start once you click something. The navigational system sucked

by Gui_gonsa

I downloaded DawnAI because it was a free alternative to other apps that require you to pay in order to generate images. The AI generated images it gives you are really good and accurate, but DawnAI is inconsistent. It has made me redo the image generating process twice now because it crashes and then says my profile doesn’t exist. This is frustrating because the process usually takes long. My biggest complaint however, is that I used to have 5 chances to submit a generated prompt everyday, but now I have 1 a day. This is obviously to get the user to pay for their weekly subscription. The weekly subscription is also not consistent. On my phone it says it is $4.99 a week, and on my friends phone it says it is $9.99 a week. This was a perfect app a week ago that I recommended to all my friends, but now it is a one-time-use type of app, unless you pay weekly.

Edit: Since writing this a week ago, DawnAI is no longer free. It is free to download, but it won’t let you generate pictures unless you pay. Don’t waste your money.

by Robinh_11vb

I want to really love DawnAI but it needs some big dev to stop it crashing after 5 lookups or a few erases. It has all the makings to be a superior app for sure especially having an edit/erase functionality…. However the replace only gets it right less than 10% of the time and it crashes way too much. You should also build into the sketch area the ability to upload a pic , this would improve the ux greatly. Love the ability to type what style you want, giving 3 options with a 4th all combined image (suggest to drop that altogether it’s not valuable), also like the filter style choices. For what I pay…. It shouldn’t be crashing this much I would change my review to 5 stars if it stopped crashing

UPDATE:
Canceled my subscription. They took away the Art AI section. This is the only part I used. I’m more than disappointed

by Bambi062209

I AM paying to unlock all the features DawnAI provides. I am giving DawnAI 2 stars only because of the quality of the work it produces. I’m very disappointed and feel cheated because when you pay, you get 3 credits per day to use any of the packs they have. I use DawnAI once to generate pictures and then it says that I have to pay again to use any of the other ones. What happened to my 3 credits a day that I am paying for?! Why make us pay to unlock features when we can only use them once either way?! I should have just stuck to it being free since you only get 1 free credit per day with the free edition. Save your money and just stick to the free version because you certainly don’t get all your credits when you actually pay.

by Electron 30

This was my go to app for a AI drawing when it was free, but now 2$ a week is not worth it. I used DawnAI to just have some fun with creating ideas without having some stupid drawback like a subscription for full access or limited drawing per day. Instead just make it free with watermark and make a small subscription for no water mark pieces. I understand that the subscription is in place so the devs can make a profit, but some people use DawnAI in particular because it had such a nice free features.

by Butrfly1976

I rate this only three stars because when you type something, example I typed “wolves laying down in front of cabin at night in the forest” became ABSOLUTELY CURSED. It becomes so cursed that it could be put on a horror book’s cover (This is NOT for everything you type). When I typed that, it didn’t seem to understand how the wolves body is built, it did about 10 wolves in a row laying down on blue towels. The background was good, it was just how weirdly the wolves looked and about the towels that I didn’t mention about. There was no cabin, just cursed wolves laying down in the forest on blue towels in DAY. Not night, day. I do understand this is an ai and they sometimes don’t get it to be exactly what your thinking of. But sometimes this scares me to see such cursed images generated. Again, this doesn’t happen every time, it’s not common or rare. This happens to sketches also, not all the time, but it can turn your sketch into horror with nothing horror described or drawn. Besides the cursed images, DawnAI helps me a lot! I love the GOOD drawings it generates for us. Nice app, I recommend downloading, just watch out for those weird images.

...everybody, including DawnAI 's own FAQ, is talking about a subscription to DawnAI, and yet I can find no answers anywhere, including in the T&C, to some very important questions, to wit:

- How long is the free trial period?

- How much does a subscription cost?

- How do I subscribe?

I'm gathering from the vague hints I've encountered in the documentation that the subscription is just going to start automatically at some point; if so, this raises another question: will I be notified before it starts in time to cancel without being charged?

All the vagary and opacity around this has me feeling like I'm about to be taken for a ride I didn't sign up for. To have some purchase sprung on me about which I will be notified only after I've paid for it. Creepy.

I can't even find information on whether paying for the subscription eliminates the watermarks on the images or not.

If I didn't like the images DawnAI produces, I'd simply delete it and none of this would be an issue. But I do like the images and would like to know what continuing to use DawnAI is going to cost me in various ways and forms. And I can find no information about that anywhere. What is *up* with that?!?

by Astarr89

Tried it for the 3 day trial and had to pay $1.99 to be and to make more avatars after a certain small amount was already done and you can’t erase any and just redo it either. Plus if you like any of the certain genre they want extra money for which genre you want to use otherwise it’s stuck to just their basic overall generation of avatars. The algorithm that they use for creating them is pretty interesting tho and they have a nice idea with this here but I just don’t think it’s worth the money they want with the way they have it. Under different circumstances…. If they made some changes to their pricing and not charge any extra for more avatar renderings or charge you for the genres you want specifically then I might’ve considered the purchase but not right now the way it is.

by Wafflebacon23

I used DawnAI for a good few weeks, and was having a good time with it, not having “Premium Versions” ads shoved in my face, and was having a good time, but once I learned that you started to charge money for DawnAI , I deleted it and wasn’t risking money being wasted away. Get rid of the money aspect, and keep it free, it seemed to be doing well for the developers when it was kept free

by MDHarbuck

Works wonderfully and. I have a lot of fun creating with it. The only thing I don’t like is the watermark. Why is there no way to save what you create without it? If you’d did away with or gave us the option to have it or not, DawnAI would be perfect. Until then I can only give 3 out of 5 stars because art I create shouldn’t have to automatically become an advertisement unless I choose.

by Parishilton42069

I like DawnAI, but in the last couple days since the most recent update, the quality of the images has gotten notices worse. I used to be able to get pictures of people from DawnAI that looked like actual photographs of real people. Now I keep getting exaggerated, blurry unrealistic images that are obviously illustrations. It’d be five stars if they changed it back!

by Thinking And Thinking Squared

I have to delete and reinstall DawnAI to recover my memory. The storage keeps growing until you do, it seems. Since i experiment a lot with the images, after a while, it’s 15gb of storage that needs to be cleared by uninstalling and reinstalling, so DawnAI only gets 3 stars. I submitted a bug report on it.

by Yoshiyahu262

You can generate nice images. But there are a lot of issues with prompts, and it comes up the more you play with it, and makes you realize the tool isn’t up to the task. You are stuck just trying over and over trying to get something useful. The amount of material sampled seems to be a bit small. There are a lot of famous artists that don’t get recognized in prompts. Prompts can’t handle the sort of weighting stuff you can do on more sophisticated tools. You can’t use images as prompts. You have a “get variations of this image” option but it’s not dependable at all. It’s really hit and miss and is rarely any better than just creating new images from the same prompt.

As a free app it was worth fiddling with. But I’m not getting reliable value for free. So I’m not wasting money on DawnAI.

by Cattyadi

Now, I'll get one thing out of the way. This is a good drawing app, but if you don't want to give up 2 dollars a week, it's not a good app, DawnAI used to be free with occasional ads. It always breaks my heart when I see my favorite apps go from new advanced and trying things out too, I know what I'm doing, I'm gonna steal your money. Please bring the old version back.

by JK226911

Hi, DawnAI itself and the content it creates are really great. Very detailed and really paints the picture you are going for.

My Issue is that the Results take an Extremely Long Time to Load. Several Minutes at Least. Sometimes I give up on waiting and stop using DawnAI . Please Fix This!

by JNJC80

I recently stumbled upon DawnAI and was blown away at how good the photo filters came out. I looked amazing in every picture….well almost, st first anyways…I also added some other people’s photos to see there’s and majority came out well too. My only complaint would be that in a few pics some facial features are distorted and some don’t appear to have me or the other people I added in them at all. It’s like a completely different person. Now, the ones that are good are amazingly great! But it was disappointing to have not gotten the other ones as good. Also, careful when adding 2 people to one Avatar pack. The system can’t tell if your male or female I guess so some pictures came out wrong as well. Overall, super fun though. I’m gonna see about getting credited for the ones that are not so great or even me in the pic.

by Jday2223

I really like how creative and on point the designs are. That’s what draws my eye to it but one issue seems to be if you don’t pay after using your uses you have to wait until the next day which is not a issue. The issue is that it says I get 5 generations usually but today day I only got one and it said I get 0 generations today which is weird to me. That’s the issue I’m having now but overall it’s a great app I just hope they can fix the generation bugs. Also lol I have no experience in app development or anything like that but I think it would make this a lot better if you could replenish your uses by watching adds. You could limit the adds to five a day and each one gives one generation so for the ones not paying it would only be 10 but make them more actively involved. Again this is my opinion and I will continue to enjoy DawnAI and look forward to its growth 👍🏾

by DeepSleeper99

Dawn AI is an incredible tool for the artistic world, and has produced hundreds of impressive, captivating images for me in only a week or so of using DawnAI . It is possibly a glimpse into the future of art, which is inevitably AI driven, at least to some degree.

Often times, DawnAI will generate fully usable images that require no doctoring at all. That alone is pretty mind-blowing to me, that something could be generated from thin air from your own imagination. Other times DawnAI generates a slightly distorted but half usable image. With a little photoshop, these can blossom into something quite beautiful. Either way, it gives you a base to work from which can save you a lot of time as an artist.

That being said, I would give DawnAI 5 stars but they started charging $2 a week for it. This caused me to cancel my subscription, spending over $100 a year to use an app is just massively overpriced in my opinion. Hopefully they go back to the free version because I would love very much to keep using this!

by KontalKontil

I love the variety of different themes and such they have to offer from the first avatar set, but essentially I’ve noticed most of the avatars are essentially just one or two of the facial poses, with slightly changed smiles, added glasses, and cartoonizef in different formats. It feels like it’s basically the same output with different add ons which can lead to not having very interesting outcomes. I do however think the artistry is done well, I love the wildcard ones (me as a cat I’m guessing and me as a planet). I will come back and edit this review as I explore DawnAI more. This is the product of being asked to review DawnAI , within the first 15 minutes of downloading. I don’t know if the developer can choose but if able it would be best to toggle the “review us please” popup a little later in the users time on DawnAI to get a better rounded review. Still great in comparison to others i tried so giving 4 stars.

by Arodicus235

DawnAI is pretty cool and has no ads. My main gripe after playing with it for 20 min is that u less you specifically put in someone’s name the faces of people are horrid. If you are too vague you can end up with some crazy amalgamations. People with 3 legs and a nutsack on their face

by Squirrel0989

No bells and whistles. Does exactly what it says it does without taking up too much storage space. Nice design. Intuitive. Wish in-app purchasing was available to pay to remove the watermark and to save images for later jumping off points but maybe these features are still coming.

by Deod

There are no ads no where I can sign up for a paid account I can create image after image. The text to image is actually one of the better. It is censored which is understandable and I can’t upload photos to work off of. But how are you making money with this I refuse to believe your just providing this services out of the kindness of your heart.

by GimmeDatThang

Been using DawnAI a couple of months and I’m really enjoying it. It’s good to see developments improvements in the application on a regular basis as well. With that said I do have some wishes for future features.
1. Have the ability to recreate more than one of the four output options given. Hate having to choose between 3 images that I really like.

2. Option for print level resolution.

3. In the re-creation dialog give option to change orientation.

4. Ability to see and save ‘within reason inappropriate output’. I mean I’m paying for this weekly I should be able to see a buttock or two for arts sake.

5. Ability to import an image.

6. Movement: video or animation.

by Raini18

Depending on the prompts you give it, this could very well give Dall E 2 a run for its money. My only suggestion is allowing users to have their own profiles to post their generated images to (like Dream by Wombo or starryai, for example). That way, we don’t have to download every single image we want to keep and can instead post them and download them later. DawnAI is so good that I’m afraid I’ll download too many images and eat up my phone’s storage lol. All in all, great app and I’m excited to see where it goes.

by Graymatter73

So I have held off for a long time getting an AI app that does and this one says it’s free the other reason I’ve held off is because all the others are charging well I downloaded it after reading some of the reviews and let me tell you it is well worth your time and effort it is the best avatar app out there the AI creates such lifelike realistic pictures that I’m amazed that came out of an AI system you’re gonna love it I love the fact that if I wanna try different avatars I just have to wait for 24 hrs andI get to do it free I don’t have to pay anything if I don’t want to that is so cool good job guys rock on!!

by Mickeymouse7777

DawnAI doesn’t charge you any videos or money to create pictures. I spent three hours with my friend just going off with our creativity and we created some really cool pictures (which I used for wallpapers with the new Ios 16). It really is amazing to see what ai can do. Also with other people getting upset about the watermark, i’ve found a way to kind of ignore it, all you have to do it just go to the last page of all four photos and save that, then you just have to crop. This will only allow you to keep three of the non-watermarked photos but I believe it is still very worth the time. I don’t think that DawnAI really needs a water mark because the pictures come out cool enough to the point that if your friends saw it, they’d ask how you made it either way. Sorry for the long words and stuff but i really am enjoying DawnAI and i got my dad to use it too

by MiahEver

DawnAI has gone beyond my expectations,there’s other apps out there that do this but not like this. Its like it reads my mind or is watching me in the mirror. It picks up on the things I hate and somehow makes me love them. I’ve modeled a lot in my life but done it with a million insecurities,but I did it because people told me I had great bone structure or was unique and unusual That always sounded to me like I was odd or ugly. Thing that are unique was the way I described things I couldn’t. But Dawn A.I Thank You for introducing me to me in the many multiverses I exist. You kinda saved my life. Or maybe even lives.

by ANeverLack

This is an extremely well done app. What makes it even better, there are no in-app purchases. No ads that'll annoy you or disrupt your experience. The application is well designed, feels smooth, and the colors used to design DawnAI feels great on your eyes, it's pretty. This AI generator seriously deserves the number one spot over other AI generator apps, they all require subscriptions or purchases in order to have fun and experiment with AI picture generation. This one requires 0 purchases and I am satisfied that I downloaded DawnAI. The developer did a splendid job!

by Socratezz

I test complex applications and occasionally apps as a profession and not only recommend, but when needed integrate it with my clients systems. Evaluating and exploring DawnAI has been extremely pleasant. It does extremely well creating ai generated images and continuously updating new themes which is great for keeping it fresh. I tested it with images of my puppy and although it is not currently designed for that. It retuned images of of human that looked very similar to my puppy 😀. And produced a few that was very good and was a puppy. I suggest they create themes for dogs and cats which seems to be hot market. Continue with themes of the week to keep it fresh. So far, they are doing an excellent job and I expect they will continue to build on that. Five stars, well deserved.

by 3raccoonsinatrenchcoat

I never do reviews but.. The developers did such an amazing job on DawnAI, it truly outranks all the others I tried and I haven’t even paid for the subscription (and that’s not for lack of a dying desire to, just lack of funds currently) but I’d throw all my money at DawnAI. Every time I do a new pack, I’m just as amazed and impressed as the first time and I’ve shared it with almost everyone I know and they were equally just “wow”ed. The way it transforms simple, everyday pictures into absolutely stunning art is just… I can’t even think of the words. It’s more like seeing yourself in a new facet of your beauty instead of going too far-fetched into a completely different universe, although I’m sure if that’s what you’re looking for, they’ve probably got the option.
I hope people reading my review feel more inclined to download and try it because the creators deserve the utmost praise and should definitely feel proud.

by Snartbaby

I’ve messed around with a lot of different AI image generators like DALL-E and Midjourney, but this was my first time using AI photo filters. It’s really fun! The images it generates are all very high quality, I especially like the artistic/painting style ones. But I wish there was a way to specify some of the details like your eye color, hair color, etc.

For some reason, this AI is absolutely convinced that my eyes are blue even though I gave it 10 pictures of my face to work with and they are obviously green. The portraits look awesome, but I can’t use them for anything since my eyes are the wrong color in every single one of the images.

by Lemon.tree85

Awesome app. It’s simple—just a few taps to generate a handful of stunning art pieces. And it’s the best in terms of quality of all the apps of this kind I’ve seen so far. I’m impressed with it and I’ve been playing around with it for twenty minutes non-stop.

by Monjovie

It’s honestly one of the best Ai generators out there and it’s astonishing that it’s free (minus if you want to remove watermark and have a faster loading time). the work comes out beautifully and doesn’t cost points or coins in order to make generations. I am a digital illustrator and the images produced are great for inspiration and composition for any artist. Highly recommend!

by The Cat Luuuuuver

This is literally the best app I’ve ever had it is so so so so so good it doesn’t cost money unless you want like a little bit of less time for it to load it’s amazing I’ve only been on it for like an hour but I already know that this is such an amazing app and I am obsessed with it it gives me many ideas for art that I would like to create myself

by Procreate User2

Look all good is realistic and easy but shouldn’t it have an option to show the inappropriate content like to show it if you want to and you change it in configuration but not be able to post it if you do that ,that would help a lot of people because for example I came to learn anatomy and it would be really helpful if y’all implemente that option
