Love it
Thank you love this app
Not Very Good (or free)
The app worked twice, then asked for $$ to continue.
Does the job well
Does the Job well, However, it takes photos from gallery only.
I give in 1 extra ⭐️ for "free", but…
…it's confusing to use, and downloading the image result, still had the background in there. Perhaps it’s just confusing to find the way to get the background actually get removed on this app, because other apps were more clear and straightforward… but they always ask for money, unfortunately. There are websites where it’s easy to use, and for free. So I'm still looking for an app like this. That does both: easy to make backgrounds removed (without making it white, either), and for no finance involved, either.
Amazing App!!!!
My advice to you is to try it
Janky
This has to be the worst designed app I have ever downloaded from the App Store.
Excellent
I have this also for iPhone…5 stars!!! I gave MAC version 4 stars…oney because I’m a little slower into the curve with it…my issue I’m sure…not the app…the iPhone app was actually 6 stars…than k you.
Great so far!
I just started using this app and it is so easy to use. I love the no add aspect of it, as well as the simplicity of the app.
Unusable
No instructions, icons unclear. Removed background but made it black. Seemed to offer color options, but clicking the colors did not change the background. Again, no instruction or direction whatsoever. Could not find a way to save (even with the wrong background). Export led to a tangle of useless and confusing options. When you call your app “Remove Background” I would expect it to do that one thing without an extended session of infuriating futility.
Excellent app
Very excellent ,love it.
Rip off now.
Already pay a monthly fee of over $8. However anything that actually makes your photos look awesome including the removal of background costs $80 per year all payable up front despite the fact Im already paying monthly fee. It says there is free BG remover however, the picture ends up so low quality its unusable. Used to really like these guys. Canceling subscription.
Thanks for the great app!
WOW
Useless
Like another reviewer described, you can only select photos/videos from your Library. Also, I couldn’t get the window to resize: the mouse cursor changes to a strange arrow glyph when you reach an edge or corner, but click-dragging does nothing, making the entire application completely unusable.
Perfect
Perfect. Some of the best apps are free. You have been a life savor.
Not functional
If you’re looking for an actual functional app that removes background this isn’t the app for you. It’s just bland and it’s not put together at all. In essence don’t waste your time!
Hella good
Hella god for edits
Manual eraser only
App doesn't automatically remove background. You only have the ability to manually remove it w/ an eraser (though you can adjust the thickness). This app would probably only be useful for fine tuning edits you've already done elsewhere w/ an automatic background removed tool/app. Didn't really meet expectations as this is more ERASER TOOL than bkgnd remover.
My first removal…
Of the background! I’m a painter drawer, and it’s great!!!
Not Helpful
It’s a Mac app pretending to be an iOS app! You can’t select a photo from a folder! It only allows photos taken with the webcam or directly from the Photos app. This is incredibly useless, so don’t waste your time on it!
Hey
Just started using this app… I’m delighted. It’s free and it has removed the background better than some apps I have paid for in the past. Very clean lines. Simple and intuitive. I’m impressed and look forward to using it :) Thank you!!
Bad
Big erasier
Love Free!!
I love that is free. No one week free but free!! Has a few glitches but gets the job done! Please developers keep this app! I’m forever grateful!!
I’m getting with other offers
I cannot turn off the pop up offers and so far have been unable to access the features of this app. Frustrating and stupid
