  • 2.6 Features artificially disabled.

    I beta tested the new 2.6 machine learning features on an iPad mini 6 and they worked fine. On release and the last few betas the developer artificially disabled the feature, and now I get a popup that says I need an apple silicon device even though iPad mini 6 is Apple silicon and it worked before. 😐

    Signed up for free trial of the app and now that the free trial has ended it goes to a page asking me to Purchase to continue using but every time I click Buy Now all it does is gets stuck loading saying “Contacting the App Store…” so unfortunately I am not even able to purchase the app.

    I don’t leave reviews unless I really but really enjoy the app and it’s functionality. I highly recommend this app for most if not all of your photoshop needs.

  • Not a graphic designer - Save your $$$

    If you are not an experienced photo editor or graphic designer then save your $$$. The learning curve to use this tool is brutal. The tutorials are near useless to a novel user and in many cases incorrect or incomplete. There is a virtual absence of tools free or for hire for iPad app. Even AI regularly conflates the PC application instructions with the iPad instructions and when it does correct itself to the iPad instructions it quickly hits a wall as the limits on providing proper instruction seem not to exist. Lastly, directly reaching out to the developer results in no response when asking about any direction or support for the novice user. Don‘t waste your money with this tool unless you already are very comfortable with graphic design and if you are why not just stay with the industry standard, Adobe?
