## Description

Microsoft Designer combines AI-powered image creation and editing to help you design eye-catching visuals. Describe what you want, and the AI generates images, custom wallpapers, greeting cards, banners, collages, and social-ready assets.

Edit photos with AI tools like background removal, erasing distractions, blur, and filters, resize for any format, restyle images as artwork, create stickers, monograms, invitations, icons, emojis, and coloring pages. The extension is available for free with a Microsoft account and includes 5 GB of cloud storage to save designs across devices.

## Review summary

Users praise Microsoft Designer for strong background removal, ease of use, and broad AI design capabilities. However, multiple reviews cite update-related regressions (loss of features and lower quality), stability problems (crashes and broadcasts of not opening), concerns about pricing/credits, and a lack of iPad support. Overall, the app is valued for capability and simplicity but hampered by reliability, cost, and platform limitations.

### Pros

- Easy to use / user-friendly
- Powerful AI image generation and editing (prompts, refining, erasing AI errors)
- Versatile use-cases (coloring books, social posts, tattoos, etc.)
- Produces high-quality AI images when functioning

### Cons

- Update-induced regressions: removed features, changed tools, slower performance, and reduced image quality
- Stability issues: app crashes, won’t open, and frequent freezes
- Pricing and credits: expensive subscription/credit model
- Lack of iPad native support: iPhone-only, no iPad version
