  1. [R7] Reface 1/5 · US The worst company I ever seen.: Fixes your pictures, but the keep taking the monthly fee from your account. They took 4 monthly fees from my account before the month ended. They charged for a video. This app sucks you dry. I advise everyone to pass it by. It is not worth it. I haven’t 1star but that is too many. They steal your money by charging you 4 or more monthly fees in less than a month.
  2. [R10] Reface 1/5 · US Never authorized charges: $85 in unauthorized charges. Stop payment required from bank.
  3. [R15] Reface 3/5 · US Pricey: I was charged 7.99 for one day. Would only let me check out a few hairstyles. Not worth it.
  4. [R18] Reface 1/5 · US Scam: I initially wanted to try some different hairstyles and it was only like 3, maybe 4, that’s it! I paid like $7.99 , total waste of money, THEN , I discover today they have been taking money from my acct EVERY SINGLE WEEK!! And it’s not $7.99, it’s $19.99!! I’m about to call my attorney if they don’t refund all the money they have stolen from me! I NEVER AGREED TO PAY FOR THIS HAIRSTYLE TRY O
  5. [R1] Reface 1/5 · US Useless: Every picture or video is rejected because of possible inappropriate material. This means that every video has to be contested and approved one week later. Who needs this? Find something better
  6. [R6] Reface 3/5 · US Great app but restrictive: Great app… facial images remain blurry/distorted, so some points off there, but a great app…unless you run into one of the “restrictive guardrails” that thinks a picture of a nun for example is nudity or sexual in nature.
  7. [R13] Reface 1/5 · US The developers buckled under yo the rich and powerful.: To swap faces with anyone rich and powerful even for satire of comedy, you are now dissallowed. Don’t waste your money on something that used to be great.
  8. [R42] Reface 1/5 · US App Deteriorated: This app was consistently 5 stars with me for years. Recently, every video I swap is treated as NSFW. Even women wearing decent shorts are NSFW? Really? Pisses me off. And they want us to contact them everytime we disagree just for them to unflag? Waste of so much time. One star now! If I could give negative, star I’d do it in a heartbeat. This and Revive, the other app they own
  9. [R20] Reface 1/5 · US Blurry: Unfortunately no matter how many times I try the quality of the face swapped image is so blurry.
  10. [R21] Reface 5/5 · US Very good: Graphics need a updated algorithm more clear version like Ai Arta Quality
  11. [R30] Reface 1/5 · US Stealing my money customer service shady!: This app is fraudulent, and impossible to get help from customer service. I paid $6.99, I was unable to log on. Then weekly $19.99 deductions from my credit card. I have tried everything to contact a real person for help. No luck! Please do not fall for the false advertising!
  12. [R32] Reface 1/5 · US Good graphics but…: Horrible customer service and the review from the customer before me, was spot on. Don’t get it, you’ll regret it.
  13. [R34] Reface 1/5 · US Purchased lifetime membership,never allowed to access or use, charged 3 times for it, refund refused: App did not recognize my email, so app did not allow access for use. Inquired via customer service for help. I will share that customer service is quite quick to respond, however they have limited to no power to help solve the problem. I was charged for 3 “lifetime” memberships of $49.99, three mo
  14. [R50] Reface 1/5 · US Good Results But TERRIBLE business practices: I have paid twice for the lifetime subscription and gotten permanently locked out of my account… the first time I chalked it up to my iPad breaking and not working on a new device maybe but now they won’t let me in at all , asked me to agree to a ridiculous new terms and privacy statement and when I try to reset my password they don’t send the reset li
  15. [R4] Reface 1/5 · US Don’t download!!: Total waste of money if you’re looking for hairstyles. You Weill spend 15 just to get to it. Garbage!
  16. [R9] Reface 3/5 · US Better: You need to tweek it a bwtter youvstarted out go but your content is to limited
  17. [R60] FaceApp 5/5 · US LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!: This app is AWESOME! I love that I’m able to do just minor touch ups OR go full on Kardashian Glam 😍 It’s a fun little app, especially when paired with my other photo editing apps/iPhone edits.

  22. [R92] YouCam Perfect:AI Photo Editor 5/5 · US YouCam is perfect: Easy to use natural edit results very happy customer
  23. [R96] Faceover 5/5 · US Effective & easy to learn: I downloaded it and was able to get what I wanted done within 15 minutes. I replaced a face in an old b&w photo with one from a new color photo. The software took the color and matched it to the old b&w very well. The hi-resolution down grades to the same grainy look too. Nicely done!
