I understand the need for ads but some of them have a transparency thing and make it seem like it's part of the app saying "we have a gift/surprise!" after finishing your edit. The app itself works pretty well and has a decent amount of options for non-premium users. I'd give it a 4 or 5 if the transparent ads weren't present or if they made sure to group the ads into one spot instead of dispersed throughout the process. Maybe have an option of watching ads beforehand and being free to edit

I love this app! If you ever want an app to stroke your ego and make a lackluster photo really POP, get ToonApp! My daughter and I were both amazed at how cute we looked. We now have our "tooned" photos as our profile pics.♡ Easy and fun to use, there are many different styles, backgrounds. The only thing I'd like to see improved is the eraser. I was at the smallest setting and was still taking off half my face. Fine tune that bad boy, Dev[s]! :) Otherwise, Bravissimo!

Excellent app for transforming portraits into cartoon images. I especially like that the developers of this app give options to edit the background of the photos with different color choices. This app also provides a few graphic designs and pre-written quotes to choose from. I would like to see more options of quotes and seasonal designs to use for backgrounds, that are available for free; and improved AI facial recognition into more accurate cartoon transformations. Overall, a really great app!

Was advertised a Barbie filter, there wasn't one. Was advertised that it would work with two people, it didn't. Half of the 3D filters didn't work and just said try again. The 2D filter averaged my hair color, so even though I have two colors it gave me a dull gray hair color. There was no option to change this. I have black and white hair. One star because it was bad enough that after a half hour I'd seen everything it couldn't do and canceled my subscription.

Subscribers beware!! Super neat app, great technology and fun to use. Pics turn out great. However.....please read the fine print and $!! I needed it for a few photos and for my business and they continued to charge my card every 10 days regardless of how often i used the app. It took me a moment to realize where the charges were coming from, so don't invest unless it's something you'll truly will use often enough to warrant the $$

Absolute trash unless you pay. $5 PER WEEK?! Just for an app that's wild. Free version is unbearable. Ad every time you touch the screen and they throttle the speed to basically 0. Lol I mean I understand the current AI trend is booming but for me personally, I can't support a "free" app that is basically only free to download and open the app and watch the same ridiculous ads that play across every app. My advice, don't get ripped off. AI is open source technology for the most part. My 2¢

I have been asked to review my original review, (ads, ads, ads-1 star). Admittedly I was quick to judge. That's not to say that the app isn't filled with ads, because there is 1 every time you do anything, (typically a quick 5 second ad, but still ads). After using the app for a while, I can admit, I did like the app and the toon conversion is amazing, so my initial rating of 1 star was hasty. Of course you can pay for a membership, which will likely remove the adds and the watermark on the created photos, but $5 a week is a little much for the occasional instance that I would use it. So, good app and if you can put up with the constant pop ups, then totally worth using.

The app itself is amazing. Very easy to use. However, the watermark is way too big amd while i understand a need for it, there should be a free option to remove it such as watching an ad. Also, there are times that it cannot recognize faces even though they're filling the whole screen. Still, beats having to draw the cartoon myself.

In all honesty, it's very impressive technology. It's pretty versatile, and can even translate a drawn face if, for some reason, you want to do that. My only gripes are the excessive amounts of ads(which is understandable), its inability to capture a full-body shot or certain angles, and the company's desperate begging for a five-star rating. This app doesn't deserve five stars, man. It's good, but not perfect. Trying to sucker casual passers-by into downloading your app is not cool.

I tried this app, and after going through 10 or 12 ads, I still could not find an anime picture of myself in my photos. Every time I tapped on one it put me back into the app. For the amount of ads I put up with in 15 minutes of testing it, I should get one picture out of it without subscribing. So, I'm not subscribing. If you had an option where it could have paid $1 for each one saved, I'd have done that.

I love this app. There are some adds with other editing pictures but I'm ok with it. But I mean there is one thing we're when your trying to find a picture it takes forever to load like 1 minute sometimes. And when you try to find a picture in gallery it kicked you out and it's harder to find a picture. But it's still a really good app LOVE IT! I recommend it.

the app is cool. the ads are not. I didn't count but you have to click through a lot of bait. the usual timers, x finally appearing in the corner... if you're willing to wade through the Ad River, you will find it does have some unique swath background types. Update per developer feedback - my suggestion is less ads. Everybody deserves to get paid I get it. But ads are creeping in more and more that are longer and longer. Just as bad as YouTube every freaking 5 minutes.

It has some great features but the number of ads is too much. I understand that you need ads to help your revenue base, but this was crazy. Every tap generated an ad. I read below that they were 5 second ads & didn't think it would be an issue. But after 15 minutes, I was done. Also being hit with a subscription page before you enter the free app was not welcoming at all. How do you know you want a subscription if you've never tried it? Uninstalling it

It's a okay app if you don't mind minimal control over your photo editing. It left much to be desired for me. The photos clarity and imagery are good, some of them are very good. But there are some that were distorted and I couldn't make any adjustments to improve the pictures. I just can't see paying for something so limited that I can't make my own creative changes.

I just installed the app. BAM! The ad pops up as I am testing the app. pushes you to try a 7 day trial then 4.99 a week or 39.99 a year. Which isn't bad for a year. I had to jump thru ads just to make one picture! I'd be using this app a lot. To pay right off after a week @ 4.99 a week. Not enough time for me to test the app before buying. Less intrusive free time. Would be better when you're trying it out or if you just don't have the cash. 2 versions would be very helpful for everyone.

It's a good app, and I like how it does groups, however it has one option for animation, and if the image isn't perfect it doesn't turn out super well. If you're looking for a quick animation get this app, but if you want variety and not for the animation to cut out the eyes, or include something that you don't want, I would not recommend this app because you can't edit any of that.

Although a bit pricey, I really love this app. No, the finished product does not look exactly like the picture you started with, if it did it would just be a copy of the picture. After a little trial and error I am able to predict what the output will look like. Great pictures don't necessarily convert well and the best cartoon pictures usually come from pictures you don't like. The hardest problem I've had is getting eyeshadow to come through on the cartoon.

Works great when it's just a face, and only a face. But if it includes anything more than just a face, the app won't allow you to select it, or crop it to capture just the face- you still need a photo editor to crop it out. To make matters worse, if it can't work with your image, you are forced to pick another image, you can't exit. Not happy with this app. Update: i emailed the developer with one of the photos that the app wouldn't recognize. Awaiting their response

Uninstalled after 15 mins. The cartooning AI itself is pretty cool, but only a few of the effects look decent. Asks you to subscribe every few times you hit something, and there is an ad lying behind every single tap. By the time I finally manage to get to selecting an image to edit, for some reason it only allows me to pick media from my gallery IT chooses, which are random images from random albums. If I go into gallery to choose an image myself, it doesn't work and I just get pummeled by ads.

Just installed , and the biggest and best thing is even though I am working with the free version I was shown about 25 different toon art versions of my one picture. They are legit versions, very unlike other photo makeover apps where you get maybe five different versions of your pic and they usually look thrown together quickly and cheaply. Install the app you will be surprised and impressed.
