User Reviews

PhotoLayers is repeatedly praised for its ease of use and effective editing tools, especially for swapping backgrounds and removing objects with transparent backgrounds. Users value that it’s free to start and has remained reliable with ongoing updates. However, a common drawback across reviews is its intrusive advertising, which can interrupt work and even cause freezing or require restarts. Overall, it’s a solid, quick-edit PNG tool for casual projects, favored by long-time users despite the ad model.
Pros
  • Easy to use and intuitive editing
  • Powerful editing features for background swaps, object removal, and adding elements with strong transparency tools
  • Free to use with a reasonable ad model; great for quick PNGs
  • Reliable over years with ongoing updates and new features
Cons
  • Intrusive and frequent ads that disrupt workflow (ads appear after many actions, during loading, and can require restarting the app)
  • Ad-related performance issues, including freezing when ads load and difficulty exiting ads

It would be nice if it was more like the old Photoshop Mix that’s no longer available. Show size of each layer when sizing, when duplicating a layer, it be placed in the same location, and a back button on the main screen (if you alter the cutting of a layer, you can’t undo it once back to the main screen. It also wipes everything at times, when you temporarily leave the app and return. Also, I wish it did not reduce image resolution. No matter how high the resolution your image is, it only saves at 0.9MP max. It can be a little frustrating to use at times, but not too bad for a free app.
