Review Retrato?

Reviewers are split on Retrato. Supporters say it delivers useful, realistic portraits they reuse for profile photos, social accounts, LinkedIn, and even family pictures, offering a cheaper alternative to hiring a photographer. But the most repeated complaints are about the onboarding and payment flow: several users say they had to upload many personal photos before learning payment was required, despite expecting a free trial. Others report upload crashes and disappointing results after paying, with at least one user seeking a refund.

I downloaded the app and was asked to upload 25 personal photos. However, I found out that payment was required to test the capability, despite it being advertised as free with in-app purchases. A review in April by Ariel Weinberger detailed the same situation, with Retreat stating they would clarify upfront that payment was needed. However, it's now July and there was still no indication of payment being required until after uploading the photos and reaching the payment screen.

They didn't mention anything on their website or anywhere that you need to pay first before even being able to see what the result is! so you install the app give them at least 15 pictures at least then you have to pay for a service that you even don't know what it is!

Downloaded, uploaded after half an hour the photos cause it always crashed the upload process. Same like Vana AI; after paid and get the results wasn't satisfied at all, had to ask for refund from Google purchases. Two stars because didn't test on dogs or cats

@lifenautjoe this app is fantastic 🎉 I've been using it to generate portraits for myself and my family members, and everyone loves the results! My favorite feature includes the ability to create professional-grade photographs that look EXACTLY like me ✨

Awesome app! I use it for all my socials, even for my Linkedin profile picture. Definitely use it if you're not a big selfie person 🕺🏻
