### "I \*used\* photophea a pretty long time"

May 22, 2021

4.0

It's okay, i use it only when i have some quick edits to do in an image.

Pros

Some pros would be that it is browser based and there's no need of downloading additional software, also it have a lot of features.

Cons

Well it could be improved, like making EPS files load faster when uploading, a proper trace bitmap tool and some improvements in making it mobile friendly.

### "Great Photo Editing for the Average Joe"

April 29, 2021

4.0

I first used this as an alternative to the expensive, photoshop suite and as I am not a professional, it was an easy choice of software. I like the features and ease of use and have recommended it to several colleagues thus far.

Pros

Free, easily accessible and has most of the features I need to create some quick graphics for events.

Cons

The advertisements may be a bit distracting.

### "Who needs paid photo editing software when you have Photopea?"

April 5, 2022

5.0

Pros

Free to use, very similar to other photo editing software that costs a fortune (who I won't name). Highly recommend to anyone!

Cons

I have no complaints with this software, it can take a while to get used to however there are guides out there to learn from.

Great! Easy to use and feature packed

Cons

Shows minor ads. Overall great feature packed software.

### "Best of the best"

June 27, 2020

5.0

I am completely satisfied with this app. Great tool.

Pros

It is free but it also has all needed features as it's paid competitor.

Cons

Sometimes it is a little bit difficult to find the function, so the user needs to scroll through complete menu. Need a few working hours to adapt.

### "Inexpensive and easier to use that other programs"

March 20, 2022

5.0

Happy with the results and the many templates it offers

Pros

The price! It does everything that you need a professional photo editing software to do but doesn’t cost as much. I use it for my hobby (scrapbooking) so I want the functionality without having to pay too much.

Cons

I am a beginner so it still takes me time to get the desired results. It is easier than other programs that I have used. Would be nice to have more tutorials on the basics.

### "Photofree"

June 9, 2021

5.0

It has been really pleased, and I found it very useful. Recommended.

Pros

You are able to download the image in several formats. It is really easy to understand. It offers basic Photoshop tools for free.

Cons

If you wish to magnify the image considerably, it will lose a lot of quality. Unlike Adobe Photoshop, Photopea has limited features; although it makes sense due to the obvious price difference.

### "the best free photoshop alternative"

November 4, 2022

5.0

Pros

It's feature, interface, shortcut almost like a clone from Photoshop. That's mean, if you know how to use photoshop than you can use photopea easily, almost no learning curve needed.Because Photopea run on browser, you can use it anywhere as long as you have internet connection, oh and it's free (ads supported), you can subscribe to remove the ads, it's cheap thought.Fun fact: photopea created, maintained only by one man.

Cons

\- Because it's run on browser, some photoshop shortcut didn't work on photopea.- some feature such as magic wand, didn't perform as fast and good as photoshop.

### "The free legal online version of photoshop"

July 18, 2021

4.0

Pros

This is very similar to photoshop, but without having to download it and being easy enough to use, it has most of the Photoshop tools without having to pay for it and occupying space in your computer memory. I use it mostly as a background remover.

Cons

It is still not the best or more efficient tool if you are looking for a more professional touch, however, is a good software if you are still trying to figure out if you want to invest in Photoshop.

### "Amazing Software"

July 16, 2021

5.0

After learning how to use Photopea, it has been a fun way for my students to show their creativity. This software is a great way to bring technology into the classroom. One way to use it is to have students create a comic strip by photoshopping several photos. Students love to use technology and I love to see my students' designs.

Pros

I love how you can edit a picture with this software. AND best of all, it is free to use if you don't mind ads. This has so many editing features included. You can zoom in and out to easily identify what you would like to fix or add to the picture. You can take away the background, which is a super cool feature.

Cons

This software has a huge learning curve. However, there are wonderful tutorials on the Photopea website that help you learn all the amazing features they have to offer.
