Review summary

Users enjoy the concept and occasional cartoonized outputs, with some calling it excellent. However, repeated feedback centers on major downsides: slow performance with lag and freezes, crashes when saving, biased or misrepresentative results (race/gender), paid plans not delivering watermark-free images, and a confusing, unfriendly user experience. Some features also fail to finish. These issues dominate user sentiment, making the app feel unreliable despite its entertaining potential.

Pros

Fun and entertaining cartoon transformations of photos.
The app can turn photos into cartoon-style images (including 'cartoon stars'), which users enjoy.
Some reviewers describe the app as excellent.

Cons

Severe performance issues: lag, freezing, long generation times, and crashes when saving.
Transformations are often biased or inaccurate (wrong race/gender, inconsistent results).
Watermarks on saved images and high ongoing subscription costs.
Not user-friendly and restrictive: results don't always match expectations and saving/sharing is limited.
Some features take too long to finish or never complete (e.g., certain transformations).

2026-05-02	JJ*****	I have been playing with the this app for a couple of hours, and so far, I love my little cartoon pictures (except for the ones that turn me into a dude)! However, it is suuuuuper laggy and sometimes, it just freezes up completely for way too long (I don’t know how long, exactly, because I have had to close it and go do other things and haven’t had a chance to wait it out, but it has been frozen for at least 15 minutes at a time so far). It also crashes periodically when I try to save a photo, which is frustrating. If it were free, I wouldn’t care, but I feel like if I am going to be paying $4 a week for this, it should just work. I shall keep it for a while longer, though, and see if the bugs get worked out.

2024-06-29	Ko*****	This app didn’t work for me. I am a beautiful brown woman whose cartoons kept coming in as white women or white men. Only once did it look similar to me but still the wrong race.

2024-05-25	Ma*****	I’m a single dad of three boys. It was almost impossible to get a cartoon on my boys without them looking like they were very feminine. Even the zombie in the GTA tried to put a halter top on my 10-year-old who wasn’t wearing a shirt. Not great for their ego. “Daddy. Why do I look like a girl, now?” Already cancelled my subscription.
