Appearance

When you first get acquainted with the editor's interface, you get an ambiguous feeling. It seems that the user is presented with a classic view:

1. At the top there is a standard menu (file, editing, view, etc.).
2. Below are shortcuts to the most common commands like general purpose, and specifically for working with images.
3. The center occupies the working area.
4. On the left is the toolbar.
5. The right side is dedicated to working with color, gradients and textures.
6. The bottom line displays information about the open image.

However, upon closer examination, it is revealed that such main panels as layers and the settings of the current tool are made in the form of floating docks, which open only when you hover the cursor over them. Moreover, changing the location, for example, of the layers window to your liking is very problematic.

Also, the usual, now standard keyboard shortcuts for the most part do not work here. Of course, you can adapt to everything, but in times of general standardization and automation, this solution does not seem particularly advantageous.

Main functions

Photo Pos Pro does a lot. A good set of tools, detailed work with color, a good set of effects and filters, support for layers and much more characterize the program as a worthy alternative to more “heavy” graphic editors. Let us briefly list the main features of the application.

Advantages and disadvantages

pros the programs are obvious:

1. Good functionality that will suit even a professional.

4. Slow with large images.

Rivals

Who can be nominated as rivals to Photo Pos Pro? Of course, we are not talking about Photoshop - the weight categories are too different. But the program can easily compete with the product from PowerOfSoftware. With similar functionality, this photo editor has two obvious advantages:

• the program is entirely in Russian;
• a simpler and more intuitive interface - it will be much easier for a beginner to master this software.

Bottom line

As a result, the output is a quite strong graphic editor, capable of solving most of the pressing problems of high-quality photo processing and creating design projects. For experienced user Photo Pos Pro program will be a worthy alternative to Photoshop.

Photo Pos Pro is a simple graphic editor that combines decent functionality and ease of use. When installing this tool you should be careful, because along with it you can install a lot of third-party software on your computer software. So, let's move on to the positive “qualities” of this program. With its help, you can apply a wide variety of effects and filters to photos, quickly crop, flip, color correct images, and also work with layers.

In addition, Photo Pos Pro is also a convenient tool for viewing graphic files. At the end of the installation, you can set it as the default viewer.

Rent for six months. Someone needs it, but I'm passing by. Suitable for testing, but not for use.

After 6 months, you will simply have Photo Pos Pro 3 Free, which is not very different from the Premium version, as you can see in the screenshot there will be a restriction on updating, you will not be able to save large files (I have not checked how large they are) and will not there will be a huge creative pack.

Well, in general, everything else works. I had a premium version, after reinstalling the system the license no longer works, although Ashraf gave me the key and it was stated that it was a lifetime license. Anyway. The program is still worthy, with one drawback: there is no Russian language. Therefore, you will have to master a lot by poke and intuition. Since many programs have a similar interface and similar filters, tools, etc. This is certainly not Photoshop, but you can do a lot with this program. Thank you.

Haven't installed it yet.
Maybe there is no point. The notebook file contains information about 6 months.

In general, another pig in a poke.

This is for 6 months. Here is one of the reviews from the English thread. I don't translate
I think that's clear.
to clarify - these kinds of limitations should be part of the description. We should not have to "pass the bill to find out what"s in it." If I had known this was a free trial/subscription, I would not have downloaded it. You don;t find out the limitation until you download it and unpack the installer.

LG-2,
Thank you!
Yes, I read several comments, I’m just wondering what Giveaway of the day will answer, but I’m afraid that they won’t answer.

Again, half a day to find out about the license; perhaps it’s easier not to install the program.

Here's a more precise review, it looks like we're really wasting our time :(
alordofchaos, didn't see your post as I posted 5 minutes later.

I was REALLY annoyed as I had an older version, 1.9 that was a "Pro" too. Probably an older GAOTD even? When I saw this one here I opened the older version and checked if it was PRO and it was. Went to do the UPDATE in it and it wanted me to buy the newer version (1.9 was installed under W7 and was working fine). So I deleted it and THEN took down the give-away. Now I have a 6 months subscription...
Taught me a lesson, if I have the program already, before deleting D/L the new version and OPEN AND READ the README before deleting the OLD version.
Maybe the name here should be LIMITED GIVEAWAY OF THE DAY or a new website with that name so there is no expectation of something free forever.
