The AI functionality is great. The login/OS integration, buggy

I've been playing with SnapEdit to enlarge photos and clean up some damaged old photos. For the most part, it's been great. Upscaling and background removal are quite fast and SnapEdit has done a superb job on all the images I've tested.

Some of my "restore old photo" attempts have encountered some kind of internal error, so they've failed. Upsizing and colorizing with the "Standard" model, however, has produced very good results.

What's been less excellent has been the login experience. They use a "magic link" login, which means that I can't have my assistant log in to my account. But worse, trying to log in to the iOS app fails. The 'magic link' takes me to an error page.

While there exists a parallel universe in which the magic links are a good idea, in this universe they are technically complex, require me to use multiple apps just to log in to a site, and then they fail with no recourse.

TL;DR: when SnapEdit works, it's totally worth it. The Standard upscaling, background removal, and colorizing worked like a charm.
