For developers and the curious
The evidence, sources, measurements and versions behind every label above.
Open observations that have not cleared the evidence bar.
Trial converts to a charge: raised by 14 distinct reviewers (5.3% of 266 reviews scanned)
This observation has not cleared the required evidence standard.
The free trial demands a payment method up front and/or rolls into a paid subscription with no usable warning.
Misleading advertising: raised by 6 distinct reviewers (2.3% of 266 reviews scanned)
This observation has not cleared the required evidence standard.
Reviewers repeatedly report that the app is not what its advertising showed. We never see the ad creative itself, so nothing we collect can corroborate or refute this — it is published as an attributed user report: what reviewers say, and how many of them said it.
The store privacy disclosure (8 entries) links no contact details or identifiers to the user — consistent with an app that does not require an account. Self-reported by the developer.
This observation has not cleared the required evidence standard.
The app's own screens offer a way past sign-up — guest access, skipping, or browsing before registering — rather than gating the product behind an account. The store's privacy disclosure is checked alongside it: that disclosure is self-reported, so it corroborates this credit rather than establishing it.
Nothing was published as a thing to watch for in this assessment. That is not a finding that nothing is wrong with the app.
266 reviews read for this analysis. Each observation keeps the sample and store it was based on.
“Try” app for 7 days = $15+ — Sounds like a free trial but immediately charges you. Did not apply a makeup or filter, completely altered image / AI replacement.
App is a scam!!! — App doesn’t even work properly and whatever you see on tiktok, it’s nothing like that. You will look nothing like yourself. Initially I wanted to try it because I saw a 7 free trial that’s why I subscribed but I was…
SCAM ALERT — Do not sign up, the free trial tricks you into automatically paying $14, refund got denied, I’m gonna have to talk to my bank, and look into filing a report with the BBB.
Awful — False advertisement about free trial. Very limited. Cannot do more then two.
THE WORST APP IN EXISTENCE — This is such a pathetic app. Sadly Apple won’t give me a refund. Ads are misleading. Please don’t waste your time or money. If I could give it 0 stars I would!
A joke — I never write reviews but it’s really false advertisement, came from TikTok where I had people promoting this app and not even a minute in it already had me already doing a review and I haven’t even seen what the app can do…
A sampled review illustrates one person’s experience. It does not establish a finding on its own.
Supporting measurements. They are not a complete list of possible harms or positives. “Not assessed” means we could not measure it — never zero, never a pass.
No package has been scanned for this app, so nothing is published about what it ships. That is an absence of evidence, not a finding.

glowup-apple-6736916284Assessed 2026-10-14 from 266 user reviews, the store listing and its privacy label. We have not scanned the app's package, so nothing on this page was read from inside the app itself.
What the stores publish. Store ratings are the stores’ numbers, not Appworthy’s, and are never averaged across stores.
No itemized purchase list is available for this listing.
This assessment is produced automatically. Three independent signals are read — user reviews, the store listing and the store privacy disclosure — and each candidate finding is filed under the sources that support it.
No charge stands on one kind of evidence — with one published exception. A finding is either a measured fact that anyone can reproduce (an ad SDK is in the package; every subscription bills weekly; the privacy label omits a tracker we can see), or it is an interpretation — and an interpretation needs independent sources to agree before it reaches the catch list. The exception is a harm only users can see: a charge may publish from reviews alone, as “Reported by N users”, once enough reviewers raise it to clear that charge’s own published bar. That agreement rule is what replaced the human reviewer, not a model’s confidence.
There is no overall score, on purpose. A 0–99 number was published here until 2026-09-15. It was withdrawn because it discriminated too weakly to be the instrument — 44.7% of every pair of apps tied — and because a single number is a verdict where a count is an observation. What publishes instead is a row of measurements, each of which says what was counted and, where we could not look, says that instead.
Findings under One source only are real reports we do not stand behind as findings. They are shown because withholding them entirely would hide a genuine complaint, and labelled because publishing them as charges would be an accusation off a single source.
