Hello,
I like the idea of combining several features within a single app. However, the current implementation has some critical flaws (for me).
The first and the most important: SharpenAI provides better output image quality and gives me a wider choice of models. It looks like PhotoAI uses only an equivalent of ‘Standard’ model for sharpening. ‘Too Soft’, ‘Motion Blur’ and ‘Out of Focus’ models in SharpenAI work much better for my images. PhotoAI sharpening is too strong and inaccurate even with the lowest strength = 1.
‘Enhance resolution’ filter in PhotoAI gives something similar to what I can get from SharpenAI, but without fine tuning the parameters and with ‘jagged’ artefacts on diagonal lines.
The second problem - autopilot. I’d like to disable it completely. Each time when I start PhotoAI, autopilot tries to ‘detect subject’ on a landscape photo, suggests to suppress noise on a medium format picture. This wastes my time.
The third issue: all manual settings are lost when the app is closed.
I’m uploading three crops taken from the same photo. From left to right: SharpenAI ‘Out of focus’ model, PhotoAI enhance resolution without sharpening / noise reduction, PhotoAI sharpen with strength = 1.
Staying with SharpenAI / GigapixelAI / DenoiseAI for now. ![]()
