What people say

Good support & great attitude to customers.

I'm surprised for the complaints here & low rating. I'm a few years working with them & all my support tickets were replied within a day. Furthermore, Almost all my requests for new features or fixes also were applied. I'm truly surprised to see other reviews here & believe they provide the same high level support to everyone.

Hi Ahrale, Thank you so much for stepping up to share your long-term experience with us, and for your heartwarming words of support! Hearing that your support tickets have always been resolved promptly and, more importantly, that your feature requests have successfully helped shape Fotor over the years means the world to our team. We always strive to treat every user with the highest level of care, though public platforms naturally tend to highlight borderline technical glitches or billing misunderstandings. Your review is a wonderful reminder of why we do what we do. Rest assured, we will keep listening to our community and continuing to refine our platform just as we always have. Thank you for being such an incredible part of the Fotor family!

Miserable company

Miserable company. There was no email about my subscription renewing and they will not issue a refund for a subscription that I cancelled as soon as they charged me for another year.

Hi Phil, Thank you for your feedback. Our system automatically processes recurring renewals under our standard subscription terms to ensure uninterrupted service, we hear your frustration loud and clear. Since you mentioned you have already cancelled, you can double-check and ensure your active subscription is fully turned off to prevent any future billing through these methods: If subscribed via Fotor Website: Log into your account, go to Account Settings > Subscription, and verify that the auto-renewal status is marked as "Cancelled" or "Downgraded". If subscribed via Apple App Store / Google Play Store: Please check the Subscriptions section within your Apple ID or Google Account settings directly, as mobile store billings are managed exclusively by their respective platforms. We highly value your feedback regarding the renewal communication. We have passed your review to our product and billing teams to evaluate our transparency and improve our user notifications.

No email that my subscriptions will be…

No email that my subscriptions will be renewed, and no refund when I complain. There are better options anyway, so stay away from these money grabbers.

Reply from Fotor2026-06-15

Hi Tim, We are sincerely sorry for the frustration and anger this renewal experience has caused you. To ensure your account is managed exactly as you wish and to prevent any future billing, we want to provide clear steps to fully turn off your auto-renewal: If subscribed via Fotor Website: Log into your account, go to Account Settings > Subscription, and make sure the auto-renewal status is set to "Cancelled" or "Downgraded". If subscribed via Apple App Store or Google Play Store: Because mobile subscriptions are managed exclusively by these third-party platforms, please open the Subscriptions menu within your iPhone or Android device settings directly to confirm it is cancelled. Your feedback regarding the transparency of our renewal notifications has been shared directly with our product and billing teams for review. We thank you for your time and wish you the best in your future creative work.

No help with support, reoccurring canceled bill

No help with support. Canceled when they were running the yearly plan. As it was fun to use but Im not looking to pay $40 every month. They charged me a cancelation fee in April 2025. and billed me the yearly fee right now in April 2026. Then when messaging them on a tuesday. They are out for the weekend... Really thinking they scamming and enjoying the money flow.... but I canceled. Really ticked with all of this payment and fee when it AI anyways. Plus no human behind it to officially help with these problems. Addendum their prices lowered so WHY am I even being charged for anything!!

Hi Joe, Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We are sincerely sorry for the heavy frustration and confusion regarding your billing history, as well as the incredibly poorly timed support message you received. To address the chat issue first: finding out our system told you we were "out for the weekend" on a Tuesday is completely unacceptable, and we apologize for this technical glitch. Our customer service operates during the week, and we are actively investigating our automated chat system to correct this messaging error immediately. Regarding the recurring charges you mentioned between April 2025 and April 2026, this dynamic usually indicates that there may be overlapping active subscriptions (such as a monthly plan early-termination fee versus a separate annual renewal) or an uncompleted cancellation sequence on the account. To prevent any future billing and ensure everything is fully stopped, please use these steps to verify your status right now: If subscribed via Fotor Website: Log in, go to Account Settings > Subscription, and check that all statuses are fully marked as "Cancelled" or "Downgraded". If subscribed via Mobile App (Apple/Google): Please open your iPhone or Android device's Subscriptions menu directly to confirm that no active Fotor renewal is tied to your mobile billing account. While our terms state that processed renewals are non-refundable, we absolutely do not want you to feel left without human assistance. We want a real team member to review your exact billing timeline. Please reach out to our dedicated support team directly at [[email protected]] with your account details and mention this review so we can assign a human agent to clarify this for you.

Big scam

Big scam. very bad application which looted the customer for nothing...after taking the subscription , fotor demands to buy the credits for whatever you doing, what is the use of taking subscription??? plz return my money ,i beg you....as i was in need plz fotor company i am highly glad if you return my money back.

Reply from Fotor2026-06-15

Hi Lubna, we understand your frustration, however we would like to clarify how the subscription system works at Fotor. When you subscribe to a membership, credits are already included based on the plan you choose. For example, the Pro plan includes 100 credits per month, the Pro+ plan includes 300 credits per month, and the Max plan offers customizable credit options, typically starting from 1,000 credits or more depending on the selected package. These credits are automatically granted each billing cycle and are used for AI generation and other premium features. We understand this may cause confusion, but the system is structured to balance different usage needs and ensure fair access to computing resources for all users. If you believe there has been a misunderstanding or issue regarding your subscription or charges, we recommend contacting us at [email protected] with your account details so they can review and assist you further.

very little credits for generation LOOK OUT

very little credits for generation. I forgot to cancel free trial in time. wrote to them the same day they took money for a year subscription. Bot replied me to don't give refunds. LOOK OUT!

Reply from Fotor2026-06-15

Dear Lyszkiewicz Music, Thank you for sharing your feedback, and we sincerely apologize for the frustrating experience you had with our automated support response. We completely understand how stressful it is to miss a trial cancellation deadline and be charged for an annual subscription, We would like to ensure your case is thoroughly reviewed by a human team member. Please reach out to our dedicated support team directly at [[email protected]] and reference this review. We have also ensured your subscription is downgraded so no further charges will occur in the future. Thank you for your patience with us.

Features keep vanishing from the menu

Features keep vanishing from the menu. The latest being Faceswap, which even when I use search is nowhere to be seen. Even when I sign in daily once I reach 6 rewards the next day its reset back to day one. This has happened twice in the last ten days. The reduction in the number if rewards per day and the constant 'limited offers' that don't appear to have a limit are annoying. As is the arbitary removal of credits. If I pay for something I expect to be able to use it as and when I wish and not to be forced to use the credits within a certain timeframe. As things stand I won't be renewing my membership. As one of the site's biggest attractions was I could do everything I wanted without having to use another site eg faceswap, and I resent having credits I paid for removed. Its a shame because the site has much too offer and us easy to navigate. Going forward I will use it but on an ad hoc basis rather than as a member.

Hi Pat, Thank you for being a valued member of Fotor and for sharing your honest reflection on your experience. We completely hear your feedback regarding credit management. As a premium member, you expect the freedom to create at your own pace without feeling rushed, and we truly apologize for the disappointment caused by our recent policy updates. We want to reassure you that your core paid membership benefits and credits always follow your standard subscription billing cycle. However, we recently adjusted the expiration windows for promotional/free reward points to optimize platform resources, and we realize that the combination of these changes has felt transactional rather than customer-friendly. It is always disheartening to hear that a long-term member feels pushed away. Your loyalty is incredibly important to us, and we resent making our users feel unheard. We have shared your review directly with our user experience and growth teams to re-evaluate our reward structures and ensure we communicate future updates with much higher transparency. We deeply appreciate your years of support and hope we can earn back your trust as we continue to refine our service.

I use Fotor daily.I am an amateur photographer /ai artist

I use Fotor daily.I am an amateur photographer an mix my photos plus A I generatipns sometimes for more impact. I have other photographers come to me to "tweak"their photos. I enjoy A I ing my dreams or day dreams,photos[eg using magic sync is a fave].I get a lot of inspiration too from others here. I miss the challenges.That helped to measure against others. I love experimenting one idea with various models,to see which gives the coolest design. I use the image editor a lot these days..more than others.I love the phot expander,which will cost a lot with other programmes. Magic eraser and AI replace are great for tweaking my photos for fun. I recently needed support.Sorted out within a day or so.Interacted with friendly knowledgable staff via email.Was great service. In a nutshell.I love using Fotor for 99 %of my AI generations.Great share my images and inspire others as well.

terrible editing quality quick edit…

terrible editing quality quick edit tool stuck at 99% perma

Reply from Fotor2026-04-16

Hi Anderson, We’re sorry to hear that the Quick Edit tool is getting stuck at 99% and that the editing quality hasn’t met expectations. That sounds like a frustrating experience, especially when you’re trying to get things done quickly. The issue you describe may be related to a temporary processing or performance problem, but it’s not the intended behavior. Our team would like to take a closer look at this. If possible, please reach out to support with details such as the file you were editing, the steps you took, and your device/browser — this will help us reproduce and fix the issue faster. We’re also continuously working on improving editing quality, and your feedback helps us prioritize those improvements. Appreciate you taking the time to report this.

AI excellent benefits

AI excellence first and secondarily very good support graphics and of course Discord is very good. The only thing that I shuttle from Fotor to another app then back to Fotor that I miss is a nice color calculator - that way I could color pinpoint any part of an image - in Fotor.

Good and bad function.

Prompts are often ignored or misinterpreted - stubbornly! Another issue I have had is the erase function leaving a dark area instead of interpreting the background. The expand picture function can also go weird - on one occasion the rump of a brown horse hitched to a wagon was expanded into a hunchbacked black person in bondage gear. On the other hand, results can be serendipitously good and exceed expectations.

Reply from Fotor2026-04-16

Thank you for sharing this detailed feedback. We’re sorry to hear about the inconsistencies you experienced with prompt interpretation and editing tools. When prompts are ignored or misread, or when background/erase tools produce artifacts like dark areas, that indicates the system isn’t behaving as reliably as it should. Your description is valuable and will be passed on to our product and safety teams for review and improvement. Regarding the expansion result you mentioned, we take issues involving unintended or inappropriate generations very seriously. These systems are designed with safeguards, but edge cases can still occur, and reports like yours help us identify and reduce these failures. We also appreciate your balanced note that results can sometimes be unexpectedly good — improving consistency and control is exactly what we continue to focus on. If possible, please share the specific examples with [email protected] so the team can investigate the behavior more precisely. Thanks again for taking the time to provide this feedback.

There was a time when I loved Fotor. Now I see no reciprocity: creators pay, while restrictions keep growing.

There was a time when I truly enjoyed using Fotor. The movie clips I created and shared with the community helped me understand how my work would be received. That part of the platform was very valuable to me. However, recently I have developed mixed feelings. I understand the need for moderation, and I have nothing against it when it is applied thoughtfully. The problem is the inconsistency. It is possible to spend credits on a creation (for example using Seedance Pro 1.5), successfully generate a clip, and then have it blocked from the community by moderators — without any refund. What makes this more frustrating is the lack of clear guidance. There is no detailed explanation of how to adjust content to meet the standards. Many users pay for credits, which means creators are part of what keeps the platform running. Because of that, they should be treated with respect — including their work. I understand that Fotor aims to protect younger audiences. However, the current approach feels too restrictive. Instead of blocking content entirely, a better solution could be to introduce content categories (for example: children, teenagers, adults, and general audience) with appropriate visibility settings. At the moment, I also see issues with the models themselves. They do not always follow prompts accurately, and in the end it is the creator who is penalized, not the system that generated the result. I lost two key clips because of unclear community guidelines. That is when I began to feel that Fotor is forgetting the very creators who help keep the platform alive. Without creators, there would be no Fotor. For now, I feel disappointed. I hope these issues will be addressed, because I would genuinely like to rate this platform higher again in the future.

I love Fotor

I love Fotor. It's easy to use compared to many other editing programs. It's easy to navigate. And you can always just delete and start over. I can't do without Fotor now. And it's an affordable amount you pay to use it. I would like it to be a monthly payment though. What I think can be a bit negative is: That it costs so much to use Sisi. And when the AI ​​doesn't quite understand what is written, it just does things on its own and uses your "money". It would be nice if you could buy credit each time you need it. Then you could switch around according to how much credit you need. It would also be nice if you could use the AI ​​enlarger in the app. It limits use to small px images. I need to use it on large px images sometimes, as it always improves image quality.

Reply from Fotor2026-06-16

Dear Jeanne, we’re glad to hear that you find Fotor easy to use and that it has become an essential tool in your editing workflow. We do offer a one-time credit purchase option, so users can buy credits as needed depending on their usage instead of relying only on subscription plans. We also understand your concern about AI usage when prompts are not interpreted as expected, and we are continuously working to improve accuracy and control to reduce unnecessary credit consumption. For the AI Enlarger feature in the app, we appreciate your feedback about resolution limitations. Your use case for larger pixel images is very valuable, and we will pass this along to our product team for further improvement consideration. If you have any doubts or questions, please contact us at [email protected]. Thank you again for your thoughtful suggestions and for being part of the Fotor community.

Fotor is my go to site for image editing

Fotor is my go to site for image editing to clean up images before using them in image-to-video, especially since many of the image edit effects are free. For image to video, I like the new wan 2.6 model which has integrated voice/dailog in generated videos. Some of the other models like Sora and Veo are too restrictive, but that has more to do with the model restrictions than Fotor itself. I do miss the weekly challenges that used to be posted in the Fotor community page. It has been over a month since the last challenge. The challenges kept me more engaged and enticed me to generate new image/artwork that I might not otherwise have done.

Reply from Fotor2026-06-16

Hi Corvette, thanks you for your support and for sharing this — it actually gives a pretty clear picture of how you’re using the tool in practice. We’re really glad to hear that Fotor has become your go-to tool for cleaning up images before using image-to-video workflows, and that you’re enjoying the Wan 2.6 model with its integrated voice/dialogue features. It’s also great to hear your perspective on other models like Sora and Veo, and how different restrictions affect your creative process. Regarding the weekly community challenges, we’d like to kindly clarify that our challenge events are still ongoing. They may appear at different intervals, but we continue to host them regularly to encourage creativity and engagement in the community. We appreciate your enthusiasm for these activities and encourage you to keep an eye on the community page for the latest updates and participation opportunities. Thank you again for your support and for being part of the Fotor community — it truly means a lot to us!
