I've been using this app for so many years... I used to use it almost every day. It was really great. But now, I can't save a picture. Because I have to pay 🥲 It was fine at first, I just used some effects & stickers. Edit: I always used the free version, filters & stickers. But it still won't let me save, it wanted me to pay to have more storage space. I sent a message to their Gmail but it seems like I wasn't understood. I didn't buy a subscription, I can't save. Nice app, what a pity.

Worked great, now ads interfere with editing. Ads will pop up in the middle of the screen with no notice and if you accidentally tap on it (or sometimes even if you don't because some ads will take you straight to the play store regardless), you lose whatever you were working on. Edit: thanks for the response. I understand the need for ads, but because they pop up while editing and some force you to the play store, it doesn't save your work and you have to start over. It renders the app useless

The app didn't do what I needed it for, no big deal, so I unsubscribed less than an hour after I started the trial. Even double checked in my Google Play subscriptions and it said it was canceled. End of the trial came up and I was still charged. Did a refund request and explained that. They DID process the refund, but it says it can take up to THIRTY days to post to your account. $90 is a lot of money to pull, unauthorized, and then not return for 30 days... Shady shady shady.

This used to be amazing but now its money hungry! The app itself is amazing. easy to use amazing features unfortunately over time its got so money hungry. £9 a month is absurd for no ads and extra editing options (what you can get free on other apps) if the subscription was £3-£5 a month I'd consider it (I cant afford almost £50 upfront for year subscription) The ads also ruin this app. Long ads and glitches out with them. I hardly use this app now because of it.

Have been using this app for 10 years and I wake up today to find that the blemish feature, where you can remove certain blemishes or items, is under the PLUS membership now. Very disappointed that it's blocked behind a paywall now because this app stood out amongst other photo editing apps because of this feature. There's only monthly and yearly subscriptions too, not even a one-time payment option. Not using this until blemish is brought back or a one time subscription is available.

This used to be my go-to app. But this is super expensive now. And they now require you to pay for things that used to be free (save as png, letterpacks previously paid for now inaccessible without paying for the subscription) They also removed options that were available before (Adding a picture layer so that it lines up perfectly without needing to resize. Now even with an expensive subscription the option is unavailable). This app is going downhill and will continue do so by the looks of it.

What a shame. This app used to be a brilliant, free to use photo editor with fairly limited ads, and a wide range of features available without paying. Was my go-to editing app for years. Nowadays half the features are behind an absurdly expensive paywall, the ads are unbearable, and it seems you can't even save an edited picture without paying for premium, even if you didn't try to use any premium features. Uninstalled so quick once that started happening.

I downloaded a free trial of the app, used it once ... then forgot about it. A year later, I get a $72.99 charge on my Visa bill for an auto-renewal. I get upwards of 300 emails a day so I missed the notice of the upcoming charge. Both PicsArt & Google Play refused to do anything about it. I believe this whole business model is deceptive and that they COUNT on customers missing the notices and then they get paid for a service they did not provide and their customers did not want.

This app is a total scam. I paid $78 for the Pro Plan which gives me 500 monthly credits. I also paid an additional $38 for 400 mor credits and I've received nothing but a prompt to buy more credits. Eventhough my balance inaccurately shows 150 credits, the app won't even let me use those. RUN away as quickly as possible. It sucks that Picsart is forcing me to submit a complaint to the Better Business Bureau. I have to at least try to prevent other people from getting scammed like I did :/

As other people have stated,so many features used to be free and now you have to pay for almost everything. There were a great selection of fonts and now they charge you for them. I would be fine woth paying for the specific items I want, not paying for an entire subscription for the few things I want. Talk about greedy and doubtful this app will last much longer because of it.
