Momo - AI Photo Generator Reviews

Stay away from Momo!
Total waste of money. App marketing is completely misleading. Makes you think you have choices before and after the generation process but you don’t.

I tried the avatar 100 pack and the results are terrible! Literally less than 10% even look like me. Further the the categories are the same as other platforms with no fantasy style like what was shown in the AppStore marketing.

Paid for the $7.99 package, loaded the pics but never got the avatars. App Says it’ll be done in 2 min and it’s still loading 30 mins later. Waste of time. Need my refund please

Not accurate for the most part. Marketing is misleading - you don’t get to choose the categories you’d like. One of mine was “astronauts” and was literally just an astronaut helmet - no trace of my face at all. Can’t believe I paid for this

I indicated that I’m male and uploaded 12 photos. None of the photos that I added show me with a beard or mustache. Yet EVERY image that was generated had a mustache and/or beard. Several images were of small children. And MOST do not (remotely) look like me by a long shot. Well, maybe one (1). No thanks.

I uploaded several pictures and purchased the 50 package. All but two made me a white woman. I couldn’t use for anything. No way to delete and re-do. Not worth it.

It’s taken over an hour to “create” avatars. It was supposed to take 30 minutes. 2 minutes has lasted 1/2 hr.
If I could go back in time, I’d pass the ad!

Not good. Made the enhancement look old or cuts off half the good photos. Why

Last 2 minutes of waiting turned into 20 minutes. Never got my photos. Momo should be banned

Most of these avatars make me look very old, which I am not

Don’t buy this. A Bunch of duplicate pics blur pics just thrown together. Some can’t even see my face smh

The look nothing like me at all. Not even close.

None of them looked like me at all. Super bummed

I can’t find one picture that looks remotely like me!

Why I am white and Asian I am a black woman

It doesn’t work. Don’t be fooled. Fake app

refund please !

And I would be one of them!! 🤣🤣🤣. After paying for my avatars (which really only one resembled me at all), I then for some unknown reason purchased the pet avatars for my cat. 🤪🤪😂😂😅. Again, not even close!
Ha. I originally signed up cause I thought Momo came up with what you and your cat would look like when made into one avatar, but no. They simply give you a bunch of generic avatars that look nothing like you or your pet. Oh, and I gave the maximum amount of selfies to go off of too.
Total waste of money, as has been said (and I should have read before). No way Momo should have over a 4 star review. 🥴

I wish I had looked up reviews for Momo before I spent $7.99… Somehow Momo is showing a 4.3 star ave. rating, but ALL the reviews I see here are for 1 star! Momo said it would take it would take 30 min. to generate 50 avatars. At around 35 min. it said 2 min. left. It has now been over running 1.5 HOURS, and still no avatars! I’m a photographer, and know how long it should take most software to run on an image. I’m going to file a complaint with the Apple App Store to report this software as a scam.

The photos returned to me were basically the ones they used to advertise their products. Look nothing like me. Nose, eyes and lips were all different than what I have. It didn’t say to not wear glasses if you wear, so all photos I submitted had glasses on, but none returned had any. I have brown eyes, but most photos had green. They didn’t step up to re-do or refund. So a scam as far as I am concerned.

Fun way to see yourself differently!

This should be be marked as free because you literally get nothing for free. I am NOT going to pay some company based on photoshop designs they creat for marketing! If it is so good they should allow a demo. They don’t, so RUN. Must be sketchy then. If they trick enough people to pay the $7.99 minimum they make a ton of money!

No mention you have to pay for this before you even see what it does. Downloaded it, uploaded pictures like it says, pick the kind of images you want it to look like then it asks for money before it shows you anything. No way! Waste of time!!

I thought that by having me upload selfies, the avatars were supposed to look like me or at least recognizably resemble me. However, I could not find any resemblance whatsoever in the results I received. It was as if random facial features were compiled.

I really feel like I just threw $12 away.

Wow was I taken. There were 5 pictures out of 100 that I could tell they used my pictures for. The rest was no resemblance whatsoever. I am sure they use those same pictures for everyone. I really despise cheats. Shame on you. I will be reporting it to Apple and asking for my money back.

I was notified pictures were ready to view and to open app. I can’t see new pictures. Just the old ones. I spent $45 dollars and cannot view photos.

Horrible you pay 13 dollars for 1 person and i paid for 100 and only one actually looked like me it just gives you a ton of generic photos of poorly drawn people that look like you please don’t spend money on this no matter what

Not one single pic looked remotely like me at all. They are pretty pics but they are nothing at all like me. Not even a better version of me or a worse one just looked like a completely different person. Momo is a scam.

I received all of these pics and maybe ONE favored me, they even put a white woman when I’m clearly black, I wish I could get my money back!!!

Big waste of money for something you can get for free from other apps, don’t know how it has 4.3 stars

First of all it took FOREVER for “the creation”. 55min at very least! Out of which “2 min remaining” sign was on the screen for 35min or longer. Maybe it would be worthy the wait IF results would be good… BUT the “images” this AI “produced” were ABSOLUTELY HIDEOUS AND AWFUL!!! None of them looked even remotely resembling me!
I wrote to them demanding to refund my money immediately! To which they never responded!
Long story short: I filed a claimed and ask apple store to return my money.
BE AWARE OF THESE SCAMMERS!!!

i just bought the 200 pack and i’m really happy with the pictures i got.

Truly a unique spin on making pictures

Purchased this for a week. Thought I would be able to do pictures for Christmas. Gave me all men pictures. Went to redo. Had to buy coins to do. Not a good app. Not an honest app. Do not use.

For one it doesn’t work on black people at all. The AI avatar will make you into a generic white person with hair and facial features that are nowhere close to your ethnicity.

2nd - if you pay for the year subscription ( which I recommend you don’t do!) you SHOULD be getting 60 coins every 24 hours. I tried to use the filter again to see if maybe it will work a second time….. it’s been a week and I haven’t even gotten my regular daily coins like it said I would. You only ever get enough to get one AI avatar to run and test per day. Of course a business ploy to get you to buy more coins but I can’t even get my daily coins like it said I would after 24 hours and now it’s saying 48 hours

Save your money and your time and do not get Momo! The fact it’s says 4 stars has to be a bots boosting the review up.

I recently invested in the this app app, enticed by the prospect of enhancing my photos with its array of features. After purchasing the one-year package, I eagerly awaited Momo 's performance. However, my experience quickly turned sour.

Despite committing to a full year of service, Momo failed to deliver on its promise of providing a seamless user experience. The most disappointing aspect was the absence of customer support when I encountered issues. I found myself left in the lurch, with no recourse for addressing the problems I faced.

Furthermore, Momo 's functionality fell short of expectations. Despite my initial investment, I was dismayed to find that the promised features were not as comprehensive as advertised. Momo 's performance was lackluster, leaving me feeling dissatisfied and regretful of my purchase.

In conclusion, my experience with the this app app has been rife with disappointment. The lack of support and Momo 's failure to live up to its promises have left me disillusioned. As a consumer who invested in a one-year package, I expected a higher standard of service. I caution others against making the same mistake and advise exploring alternative options for photo enhancement apps.

I paid for the service for a year. I have a habit of forgetting to cancel subscriptions. My subscription should end 12/24. I have elected to not renew the subscription. I could not communicate with anyone with customer service. To advise that I am not happy with the pictures. There is some resemblance but my skin color and hair color is totally off.
Well done get shut it account off completely. Normally, you get use of the account until your subscription expires. I knew I would not get my money back. I am appalled that I am being denied use of the account.

Completely useless. Didn’t even get my race or hair color correct. I used 12 excellent, clear pics and the AI photos came out an entirely different race. So I deleted all photos. Added 12 different photos, and again — received AI pics that are a completely different race, hair color, hair length, eye color — not one element of the AI photos looks anything like the photos used. Tried a 3rd time, deleted all photos, loaded all new photos of a different person and Momo gave me the same person back as the first two attempts. This is the most poorly performing AI app I’ve ever used.

I paid for a week subscription, and was pleased with the first round of photos. It supposed to refill coins every 24 hours so I can request more, but mine just resets every 24 hours without giving coins, and it only gives me the option to wait another 24 hours, or purchase. I’ve waited over 48 hours and haven’t received anymore credits. I tried to contact them through Momo about this, but that was glitching and wouldn’t let me send a message, so I’m forced to do it publicly here

Not only do you have to have a membership which you pay for, but then they want you to pay for coins in order to use the program within a certain time period “you have to wait for more coins” - it said this after I used the program once…. Photos weren’t that great, just did it to goof around. It should be free if your limited on how many times you can use it within a certain period or you pay for a membership but not both.

I provided over dozens of photos and was giving photos back of people. Nobody in my family could recognize.p catalog and turned you into that person that is terrible business. The other companies are fantastic almost mind blowing, and this one does not put you even in the Friend room with your own look alike

I want my 699 back until this program can actually use a picture to turn into a eye. This is pathetic back to the drawing board. Good luck.

App is garbage, bought is thinking it would make me a decent buisness photo , looks nothing to even real , then after buying the apps app you only got so many coins , then you have to buy more !! Hahaha go F yourself , greed is all Momo is . Something quick and easy to make money off crap quality after I say and found the maximum best pics of myself for 30 minutes to get garbage . No way Momo is actually over 2 stars

After you pay to get the program, you use it once and it tells you you’re out of coins which you must refill with more money more money more money !
You don’t know about this upfront until you pay the money to buy the program then all of a sudden it wants money every time you try to use it I would consider this definitely a scam not worth using ! it should actually be illegal !

I know I loaded the pics but was unsure as to the outcome. I just thought the pics was a part of the package until I kept seeing the resemblance of myself and then I realized that it was me. She look like me.

Sketch detector went off immediately when the first thing it asks you to do it review Momo , when you haven’t had a chance to test it.
ALSO there is no way to test how well it works before paying. Have to do a subscription to try. I wouldn’t trust them.
They could’ve done a free trial, or added watermarks to the photo when testing it before purchasing, but NOPE.

Got to give this a two. I’ve had a shaved head for 25 years and carefully selected by photos to show just that . The this app AI chooses to regrow hair, mostly inappropriately.
Could you imagine using one of these for your LinkedIn profile, when people really know youre bald as a coot?
I’d say 75% or completely wasted 20% fun, but disposable, 5% possibly usable, but nothing serious.
Don’t waste your money

I like Momo , but I am a brown skin girl and all of my images come out as a white or extremely light-skinned girl. There really should be an option to choose our hue on your app. I DO NOT have this issue on the Remini app.

This should be noted before purchasing.

After payment I processed to create my avatar that turns out to be sooo different from me. I get better from even snapchat and that’s FREE! Seriously not good… I decided to try again and I was unable because I have to pay additional WTH!!!! Why would you have to pay additional when you already purchased Momo !!!! No SENSE

The photo quality is great as well as photo backgrounds - only one HUGE problem - the images are OBVIOUSLY not you. Large people/women are reflected as a size 0 vice their actual size (weight is nowhere near accurate), hair color often different ( brunette instead of blond), and even ethnicity is off (I’m light-haired Scotch-Irish and a couple came out as a brunette curly Asian). Cheeks came out weird - AI didn’t know how to relect properly. I would not use these for snything job-related, only social. If I were receiving these as a work bio as an employer, I would question your integrity from thereon (not legitimate/cutting corners vice accurate quality portrayal) or if received on LinkdIn and a different-looking person showed up in the office, I would have questions. After paying $40 a subscription and $4 for each additional attempt at accuracy, definitely not worth it. Pay a photographer for a bit more to get a real-you photo ($120 on avg vs $50 via Moto).

I was hoping for professional-quality headshots but was deeply disappointed. Momo , which promised lifelike and customizable images, turned out to be nothing short of a ripoff scam. Firstly, the subscription fees were exorbitant, with hidden charges that were not mentioned upfront. Upon payment, the quality of the generated headshots was abysmal - far from the high-resolution, professional images advertised. The customization options were severely limited, and the AI seemed to lack an understanding of basic aesthetics, resulting in unnatural and sometimes comical results. Customer service was non-existent; my attempts to reach out for support or a refund were met with silence. It’s disheartening to see such applications preying on individuals seeking quality digital services. I strongly advise against using Momo and suggest looking for reputable alternatives that deliver on their promises.

The photos look nothing like me. I downloaded Momo because I was excited to generate a new professional photograph for work. The photos generated look nothing like me. There are a couple of them that look like someone who could be my distant cousin, but otherwise not one photo was one that I would actually use. Facial features were different. My hairline and hairstyle were different and even added gray hair, which I do not have. I Immediately canceled my subscription to avoid any renewal fees and I attempted to contact support but the contact us page does not work leaving me no way to contact them to request a refund. I also see that their office location is in some foreign country which had I seen that before I would not have even bothered Downloading Momo . Save your money.

As with most of these types of apps most pictures are very unrealistic. I really was just looking for a oic that looks a bit more professional for my linked in. Because I’m a bit heavy I can’t even use the photos generated since the stock pics are for extremely thin people. So it’s quite obvious that my fake head is on a skinny body. I would say most pics are also unusable since face is out of proportion in most of them.

Advice-consider having body type as an option since all consumers are most definitely NOT skinny and will eventually have to be seen in person.

I should’ve read reviews before I purchased. I normally do but this is the one time I didn’t and LESSON LEARNED! App does not do what it’s intended to do and if you are of a darker complexion DONT BOTHER! App will just generate photos with maybe one or two of your physical features (mine was lips) but will keep the hair and skin of whatever model photo you are using with no options to correct. App doesn’t even ask you what ethnicity or age you are to even closely resemble you with generated photos. Only thing they got right was the gender! DONT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY! The star rating being 4 has to be because of bots or something, definitely not merit.

I purchased Momo just for curiosity sake, I’m over 55 and I enjoyed seeing how close the ai came to getting me correct at a younger age. It was fun to play with but I would never try to pass these off as a real representation of me. I would purchase again

Some results look decent but most of them are terrible. Teeth look long and weird in all of them and I’ve tried about 5 sets. You also cannot adjust the photos you uploaded that the AI is working off of, so if you want to try with different photos you have to pay again and create a new profile. I did and the second profile produced even worse results. I would never use any of these images for professional headshots.

Momo is horrible! It morphs everyone into a size 2 it looks nothing like you if you’re over a size 10 I’m a size 14 and it looks nothing like me. The face is changed. It doesn’t look like me. I am an African-American woman, and my color is so lightened that it doesn’t look like me. I would figure it. It will lease keep the color that I am even though it morphed almost all of my future features. I would never recommend this don’t buy it. It’s a waste of time and money.

I'm glad I only purchased one week because Momo does not work. The photos generated did not remotely resemble me. Also, the subscription is for one week, but they have a system of "coins" where you can only get one "pack" of photos and to try again you either have to wait until the next billing cycle or purchase more coins. So really, they are charging you a weekly price for one set of photos. Momo feels like a scam and is probably the worst app I've tried.

The subscription model is a scam as it allows you a limited number of “coins” each week, of which a single type of image consumes all weekly coins. Further, the images look nothing like the photos uploaded. The marketing images used appear to be real photos edited to look a bit generated, to fool new customers. Read the other reviews here and stay away. I’m certain the number of 5 star reviews are paid.

I have a shaved head and had this program design images for me. All the pictures had me with hair.

I attempted to contact customer service, and no reply. So I basically paid for a product that didn’t do its job and couldn’t get a hold of someone after the product didn’t do what it was advertised to do. Hence the one star review.

It didn’t work and customer service is not existent.

I went with the LinkedIn pack. Only 1-2 photos actually resembled me, 5-6 others were close…out of 60. Biggest issues were either minimizing my jawline/chin, adding what appeared to be feathery earrings and/or lip gloss, lightening my skin tone (I’m dark-skinned and I lacked melanin in about 25% of the photos), and complete misses on my hair. I have locs. Nothing came close to locs or natural hairstyles. Everything was a combover, straightened hairstyles, etc. The closest iteration was a hairstyle that resembled Richie from Family Matters…but again, I have locs.
I’m sure Momo will do wonders for many others. My rating is subjective, as it should be, because it doesn’t benefit me. This has been similar to other experiences with AI photo generators. Hopefully this changes soon.

I’m so disappointed in the skin tone and body type. I’m not light-skinned or skinny. How in the world did you get that from my profile pics I have no idea. I need a do-over. I’ve generated five photo albums and not a single pic remotely resembles me. I didn’t make this purchase for laughs and giggles. This is very important to me for my business and career. And the fingers on the images… OMG looks like an alien. Just cover the hands please. I tried to change my profile photos to start over but there’s no option for that. So I’m stuck with a worthless product. I need someone to help improve my photos so they actually look believable.

The free app requires a subscription to even preview results, and those results are…barely close to believable. For me, I downloaded 3 of their “packages” of six images, according to a theme. Of each package, no more than one “photo” bares enough resemblance to me to pass as a legitimate picture of me. On the 4th attempt to download a package, I had 42 of my original 60 points available. However after two days, the package hasn’t finished processing, still saying (as from the start) that approx 30 minutes remain. There’s no way to cancel the request, and I can’t make another selection while this one is processing. So, I tried to contact their support via their web site, but the “submit” button doesn’t work on the contact form (at least on my phone using Chrome). So, I’ve paid a subscription (that I’ve since cancelled but still have remaining time on) for an app with no support and cannot use for the time/points I’ve paid.

I use this for two different models and the first model was kind of close, but not really enough to pass as the person and then the photos of myself were even worse. They didn’t look anything like me and I used selfies as well as other images so if you’re looking for a photo that would pass, I would not recommend this and unfortunately you can’t feed it more photos to have AI do better. I think that would be a nice addition to this kind of app is if you could say try again and give more photos for the AI to learn what you look like overall, it was fun to play with, but I definitely just lost 12 bucks and I can’t use any of the photos for anything.

I have absolutely no clue why anyone would use this. I wanted professional headshots for my LinkedIn and after 3 different “AI profiles” trying to get my face correct, I gave up continuing to pay for every change and tweak because it just creates brand new people and most were showcasing me as bi-racial; which I am not. Thinking a face swap app would be better. Not one of these photos looks like me and I have them 36+ pictures and 4 chances. You can’t use a picture that doesn’t look like you?!?! Face swap, it is. This is a glorified background app with a likeness of a brand new person you’ve never seen before - useless! I wanted to use AI to create a professional picture of ME looking like ME in a nicer place. Jeez. Sate of $50 plus tonight.

Fun app. Don’t expect it to make you look exactly like you. I’ve always been told I look middle eastern (I’m just European though with darker features) and it accentuated those features to make me look more so. Borderline can’t put these up cuz it looks very much like appropriation.

The photo quality is 8/10, but accuracy is 5/10.

I have asked them repeatedly to cancel my account, and have no idea if they have or not, so I will need to figure it out through the settings on my phone. Worst case, I’ll have to go through the rigmarole of denying charges if I’m charged in the future. How would you like having to go through that? They don’t respond. I made the major mistake of not checking first if these people are responsive before paying for a one week subscription. I even sent them 4 emails warning that I would give a bad review, they don’t care. As for the product, I received several photos in a package, and the one that looks closest to me is clearly very “off.” It will be fun to show people at parties to get a good laugh, but that’s about it.

Do not waste your money. The images do not look like you. I wasn’t expecting perfection but I thought they would at least look similar to me. Instead some look like someone else’s images were used and many are downright comical. To play and generate more you end up having to pay more or wait a week. I canceled in one day and still ended up paying $6.99 (before tax week one cost), $4.99 to try to make more with better photos of me, and then $3.99 more when the $4.99 purchase didn’t give me the option to upload new photos. First pack gave me 60 junk photos the subsequent packs gave me 6 junk photos. Do not bother.

I have used another AI to make pictures but the outcome was horrible out of the 100 pictures it generated i maybe liked 2. Momo actually made me laugh with the decades pack but I have to say the pictures came out nice one you can actually send someone and be like look! jaja so any app that make me laugh in a good way all for it. Try it out you will be pleasantly surprised by the results. 😎

I wanted to update my LinkedIn photo and saw an advertisement for Momo. After downloading I purchased the LinkedIn package that was roughly $40. As soon as I authorized the purchase it charged me $52! 20 minutes later I received these ridiculous photos that looked nothing like me! I have very brown eyes and Momo made my eyes hazel. I submitted a complaint asking for a refund and received one email saying they got my request and made a ticket. That was 4 days ago. I just want a refund because what I received is unusable. The Voila app even made my cartooned self look more realistic. Don’t waste your time or money.

I think it all depends on the photos you give it to generate off of. I thought it worked best with a mix of expressions in your profile. I liked that it gives you a selection to choose from. I was normally able to use 2 out of the 6 from the batches it generated. Which I thought was pretty good. I think it’s worth you giving it a try at least.

I downloaded Momo and it asked me to review it right before the page that showed that you have to pay for Momo . I’m glad that I waited to post a review because I feel like Momo shouldn’t cost really anything considering the fact that it’s broadcasting that it can help you with your work profiles. Most people who need help with their work profiles don’t have any money because they are looking for work. That’s the case for me. So for me, I was excited to use Momo until I seen a price tag on it. Now I know I can’t use it to help me get a job.

Honestly, I think Momo is great, but in all fairness it really doesn’t depict people of color contextually correctly. Also, in all of your images posted on here you couldn’t find one or more persons of color who we could emulate in our portal. You should get a trail period before you have to begin paying for Momo . Anyway I will cancel my subscription immediately and wait to see if any improvements are made! Sad…

Momo has a glitch and has charged me over 5 times for the same package , when I go to upload my photos Momo redirects to the payment page each time and although I should have 500+ coins for how many times I’ve paid it says I have zero and makes me start all over! My photos never showed up but the payments did! I restarted my phone , made sure I downloaded the latest version of Momo , and still no coins or photos showing in my profile. Very frustrated and disappointed! Huge waste of my time and money!

They get you to pay them a subscription, then they get you to pay for other filter packets. No warnings or instructions when attempting to do a profile. Absolutely absurd. So when you go to try a new packet it'll just use your existing image profile, not the new one. I didn't want it to and there's no way to stop it once you start it. So you're out $4 to $10 bucks and no refund. I wanted to create a profile of my sister not me. Also, there's no help or support contact. There are several other AI apps out there that are 10x better. Reported Momo to Apple.
