  1. [R1] Picsart AI Photo Editor 1/5 · US Ruined with paid features. · translated
  2. [R9] Picsart AI Photo Editor 3/5 · US Too expensive: Nice, but they want to charge you for everything I bought a subscription for a year and then they wanna charge me for credits to use AI tools on top of that so they’ve made it too expensive to use. I canceled the subscription
  3. [R70] PicCollage 1/5 · US You can no longer save or download collages: Every time I try to save/download my collage or edit, all of a sudden it wants me to subscribe to their damn premium in order to see it! Not a good look. I used to love this app and use it all the time until yall decided to get greedy…💔
  4. [R72] PicCollage 3/5 · GB Good except from two things: Pick college is really good except from two things all the good collages you have to pay for And it is £34.99 a year WHAT !!!!!! And if you want to have a bit of fun on the app you can press the enchanted video and photo editor, but you can only use it three times if you haven’t got the premium templates which is where you have to pay and when I tried to use the encha
  5. [R8] Picsart AI Photo Editor 5/5 · US Best Photo Editing: I have tried so many photo editing apps over the years and Picard is the best. Easy and user friendly. It has clean and natural end result.
  6. [R56] Picsart AI Photo Editor 5/5 · US Bella: Very good app. Easy to use, love the tools and the ease of editing
  7. [R68] PicCollage 5/5 · US Fun, easy to use and works well.: I’ve made some of these for friends and they’re frame worthy. Good ap.
  8. [R80] PicCollage 5/5 · US Easy & works great: No tutorials - pretty intuitive and very functional
  9. [R36] Picsart AI Photo Editor 3/5 · US They need to fix this: I just spend the last 30 minutes photoshopping an image for my friends just to I find out I can’t save it because I guess I use a premium feature they need to add some sort of a warning so people don’t waste they’ve time like I did, I used to use this app all time a couple years ago the greed is insane
  10. [R57] Picsart AI Photo Editor 3/5 · GB Projects Disappearing: So recently i got this app for just two reason, to edit my images and make various designs. However, whilst working on one of my designs, I noticed that I was missing one. Now, i never recalled deleting this project, but for now, i left it alone. That was up until more of my projects started disappearing! Bear in mind, i had not gone past the limit in the free trial. So, wh
  11. [R64] PicCollage 2/5 · US Deleted all my collages (TWICE): The good: Lots of free stickers, backgrounds, etc- but includes watermark. Pretty intuitive, can save, duplicate, and edit images. The bad: I use this app to make templates for posts that I edit and use again. TWICE the app has inexplicably deleted ALL my collages- not after an uninstall or update, no warning, just gone and not recoverable. Considering switching
  12. [R3] Picsart AI Photo Editor 3/5 · US It’s okay: It works good if you get it perfect but it is very expensive I payed for the $10 monthly and got to make 2 videos today and now I can’t make anymore until next month. My opinion, not worth it.
  13. [R61] PicCollage 1/5 · US Cheap: Used to be a great app but now you can’t even save a collage without having a subscription. I’ve used this app for years and sadly will be deleting to find something better :/
  14. [R45] Picsart AI Photo Editor 3/5 · GB Good app but 0 contact support: I am an editorial photographer and hands down this is the most convenient app ever. But sometimes the app bugs and takes away my credits (ai generation) and there are no contact supports to ask for, no email replies or anything, could be disappointing. So be aware!
  15. [R52] Picsart AI Photo Editor 1/5 · US Bs: This app is my nightmare. No help from support whenever I struggle to get through the app. I spent 83$ but can’t even use it.
  16. [R95] PicCollage 1/5 · GB need refund: I did a free trial and I wasn’t able to cancel it in time so now £34.99 has come out of my bank account , I’d like a refund for this please I cannot find contact info for you
  17. [R97] PicCollage 1/5 · GB Forgot to cancel subscription: I forgot to cancel my subscription and no way to get my money back ( cancelled it the same day after it took my money)
  18. [R27] Picsart AI Photo Editor 3/5 · US Insane Subscription Hikes: Going from $12.99 to $15.99 was bad enough, now it is up to $18.99 for the same service I once had for $12.99. I gave up. When are these companies going to learn raising subscriptions aren’t the answer. Eventually the working class is going to break and limit which subscriptions they are willing to pay for.
  19. [R49] Picsart AI Photo Editor 1/5 · US App Ruined by Corporate Greed: I used to really love this app and now you can’t use it without paying hundreds of dollars a year. You can’t even screenshot your own work without paying a subscription. This app has been ruined beyond belief by greed and unnecessary paywalls. They expect people pay hundreds of dollars annually just to use the app, it’s ridiculous. 1/10, can’t believe that the entire
