It’s literally just AI
It edited my picture but it was literally just ai. It changed my whole face.

BUYER BEWARE
1) worst photo retrieval of any app I’ve tried. 2) GOTCHA _ - you are allowed a limited number of uses of filters - then need to wait until your yearly subscription renews. OR (SURPRISE) you can buy credits to use the APP. 3) some of the filters take 25+ seconds to work.

Worth it
I love using prequel. It helps me express my photos with how I was feeling in the present moment. The various effects really helps express the energy. 10/10 worth the year subscription if you love to edit your photos & videos

CRASHES NON STOP
The app crashes every time I use it and yes I have the most recent update. It’s so frustrating especially since I pay for it!

Pay to play
You have to pay to use anything good or advertised. In the advertisements it doesn’t say anything about not being free

Setting
Love this but the only issue that everything is premium even for setting which I think that isn’t fair it should be for free please fix it

Greedy, dishonest app that uses AI advertising
I started using the app to adjust lighting, contrast, etc. to enhance my photos. Once done, it asks me to pay for premium to unlock the effects I just used. However, it never tells you what effects are behind a paywall, so I’m stuck wondering what I can do before I have to start paying for a mobile app. Not only is this really confusing, leaving users playing a guessing game on which assets they’re allowed on the free version; but it’s very greedy. After trying to edit my photos, I could not help but notice that they are pushing out AI generated advertisements on Instagram. The pics they use of “models” on their ads aren’t even real. With how many people use this app and pay for the premium, you would think the company would use the examples of its users instead of gallons of water to generate fake people and fake examples. The reviews of this app are most likely the result of botting, because the App Store says mostly five stars, but the only positive reviews have come from 6+ years ago before these developers became money hungry. (And lazy by the apparent AI usage). The follow up of the reviews are that they’re a big company trying to pay their staff, but the amount of money they ask for very, VERY limited features won’t justify that. Overall, useless app if you’re not paying for it. Limited by the looks of the people that do. Not descriptive of what’s available in general for the standard version. Lazy and sloppy AI content to push its advertising. What a waste of time.

just a bad app
you need a subscription to use any of the filters at all, not only that but the subscription is $6/WEEK the biggest scam ever

Я в шоке.
Оплатила подписку чтобы узнать что за эффекты нужно отдельно платить. Просто замечательно.

So slow and crashes.
Literally can’t hardly do anything in the app because it crashes or loads so slow when trying to do any edits to videos. Will not be continuing after the trial for sure
