Don't even bother with this app. The app is far too expensive on both the monthly and annual purchase price. The trial offers very few limited options, And most of the things you CAN do, you can't apply it because you can't proceed until you pay a monthly or annual fee. This app had promise, but honestly for the price theyre charging I can't recommend this to anybody. I'm sure the app store has something similar to this, without the price tag.

The Free to use tools are VERY limited. They include Magic, around 23 filters, a handful of overlays and elements and you can also adjust the detail and colour levels. Anything else is unfortunately locked behind a pay wall. Also I used the 'Heal' tool to remove a fan from the background of a picture to see what it would look like (you have to pay to then accept or save your changes) and it honestly looked awful! I'll stick to photoshop thanks, thats much better value for money in the longrun

I haven't check it too much but what I was interested in was the eraser. On Instagram story it looked like you could erase people/things you don't want in the picture. Well, I did it and it doesn't actually fix the background as nothing was there only if you do it with objects that are placed further in the picture. I am not sure about how good other features are, but I will stick with the Photoshop Express.
