Fotor Photo Editor Reviews & Product Details

I use Fotor to make quick adjustments: adjust image sizes for web, newsletters, Instagram; correct exposure on low-light photographs that were not ideally shot because of the uneven auditorium lighting; adjust color tones on portraits taken in a variety of light conditions; and add some light sharpening prior to exporting. Since many images are submitted by students who have varying levels of experience working with photo editing software, using a lighter-weight tool like Fotor is faster than using a heavier software package. I am able to maintain a consistent look in my internal materials (flyers, video thumbnails, etc.) as well as social media graphics (Instagram and Facebook) through the use of templates.

While the platform works well for most uses, it does tend to be slower with multiple high resolution images (large event galleries, sporting events, graduations, etc.). When we need to make more complex edits to our images, I perform initial batch edits with basic adjustments and save the more advanced retouching until last.

What I like best about Fotor Photo Editor is how it balances simplicity with capability. The tools are straightforward and easy to understand, so I can enhance photos quickly without feeling overwhelmed. At the same time, it offers solid edits—like nice filters, basic retouching, and good collage tools—that let me polish images without needing complicated software or deep editing skills.

What I dislike about Fotor Photo Editor is that some features feel too basic or restricted unless you pay for the premium version. The editing controls aren’t as deep as in more advanced tools, so if I need precise adjustments or fine detail work, it falls short. Sometimes things like masks or advanced retouching just don’t feel strong enough for more serious editing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I mostly use Fotor Photo Editor for making collages of my vacation photos. It’s super easy to drag stuff around, and the templates look way better than the other free apps I tried. I’m obsessed with the AI background remover; it’s so satisfying to just click once. It’s a relief not to have to sit there with a tiny brush tool trying to trace around every little strand of hair, saving me like 30 minutes per photo, which is huge when I’m trying to get stuff posted quickly.

It gets really laggy when I try to edit high resolution photos. My browser literally froze twice yesterday while I was just trying to use a simple filter. It really needs to be more stable for bigger files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its ease of use combined with powerful AI tools — I can quickly edit, enhance, and design visuals without needing advanced skills, which saves a lot of time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some features are behind a paywall, and occasionally the app can be a bit slow when handling large files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

that you can utilize the free trial and try out the company. unfortunately they will charge you even after cancelling. i cancelled in 2023 and somehow i was still being charged. there’s been so many new rules when it comes to scamming subscribers that’s been implemented recently but what about someone that’s been charged for 2+ years?

This company scams! I signed up for a trial in 2023 using my PayPal, and to the best of my knowledge, I cancelled it. I haven’t tried this service since 2023, but they’ve been charging me $8 every month since. I finally noticed the charge, being that it’s small, but it certainly adds up. Watch out for these international companies! They will not give you a refund and don’t care that you actually never used the service. This is how they make money, by scamming hard-working Americans out of their money. Please take your business somewhere else, and if you happen to need to use them, cancel right after you subscribe for the free trial. Worst experience with customer service; they do not care at all.

I love the AI background remover in Fotor Photo Editor. It's really easy to use for creating graphics for social media and blog posts. Fotor Photo Editor solves the speed issue for me, as I don't want to open a whole app just to crop an image or add a filter. It's quick in, quick out. The initial setup was easy since it's an online app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The constant push to upgrade is annoying. You hit a paywall soon, yes, but jeez, keep it slow. If they could rectify the layer management, optimize it so that we can also work with vectors easily, maybe then I'd think about shelling something for it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its all in one platform, It offers an impressive range of an AI tool for photo editing, image generation, adding AI effects, also offers a variety selection of templates for various purposes like posters Instagram posts, cards and more Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far non to be specified but when i come across any i will be back to review Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how easy Fotor is to use. It gives me powerful editing tools without feeling overwhelming, and I can get clean, professional-looking results in just a few minutes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes it feels a bit limited when I want to do more advanced edits, and a few features are locked behind upgrades, which can be frustrating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I found the initial setup of Fotor Photo Editor quite easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I didn't find Fotor Photo Editor helpful at all. The subscription isn't clear, and it's tough to cancel it. The generated images are really primitive, and the assistant is rough and unhelpful. No matter how detailed the prompts are, I can't get the results I want. Sometimes it tells me everything is clear, but then shows a 'new' photo that hasn't changed at all. Plus, every attempt to generate uses up credits, so I have to keep paying. I'm really sorry I spent money on it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how Fotor Photo Editor's one-tap enhance feature fixes my dark photos instantly, so I don't have to mess with multiple sliders. The best part is definitely the filters. There are hundreds of them, and they don't look cheap or fake like other apps I've tried. The filters blend into the lighting, making it seem like I used a real film camera. Also, setting up the app was easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ads in the free version are honestly so annoying. They pop up right when I’m trying to save my work, and it makes the whole screen feel cluttered and messy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
