Comments on Microsoft Designer for Android

★★★★☆ Serena Wong · Aug 20, 2026
Colorful, creative Designer app with many useful features and graphic editing tools.
★★★★★ Koteswararao Annabattula · Sep 14, 2026
Microsoft Designer is a powerful and user-friendly AI design app that makes creating beautiful visuals simple and fast. Its AI image generation, templates, background removal, editing tools, and social media designs are very useful for creators and everyday users. The interface is clean and easy to understand, even for beginners. It saves a lot of time compared with traditional design software. More free AI generations, advanced editing options, and greater control over generated images.
★★★★★ Arian Noah · May 8, 2026
The performance is so good 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🏆🎖️🏆🎖️🏆🎖️🏆🎖️🏆🎖️
★★★★★ Dominic Bisson · Jun 5, 2026
It makes amazing Artwork the only thing I wish is the form Scratch section was better the stock photos are limited, and I wish they came as outlines rather than photos, so you could design and color them from an actual template so you don't have to build what you want from shapes I wanted to be able to find a dragon template, and you don't have dragon photos, but you can make a dragon and building a dragon from shapes and having it look like a dragon is difficult
★★☆☆☆ lowercase sage · Aug 19, 2026
15 gens/month (one might think Microsoft can afford more), older model (GPT Image 1.5 or some variant), nagging about notifications... Why isn't it part of the Bing app? The only good thing is that prompts can be of any length (while Bing image creator is still limited to about 500 characters or something.)
★☆☆☆☆ Poornima G · May 27, 2026
Worst experience. Very dumb app. It can't even understand the prompt properly. The download option is for namesake. We can't download the image
★☆☆☆☆ MD RAKIBUL ISLAM · Sep 27, 2026
Dear Microsoft Support, The biggest problem I am facing is with OneDrive integration. Even after deleting files from Microsoft Designer, those files still appear in OneDrive storage breakdown, creating ghost entries and wrong storage usage. Additionally, Microsoft Designer often becomes very slow and sometimes crashes, which disrupts work. 👉 Please fix these issues urgently, especially the OneDrive integration problem, so that deleted files are properly removed from storage records. Thank u
★☆☆☆☆ Simon Lyons · May 24, 2026
So one moment Copilot can edit images, the next moment it won't, and plays 20 questions. Turns out there is a brand-new app for doing this - Designer, but Microsoft couldn't be arsed to tell its customers who pay a heavy subscription for services from Microsoft that a) Designer exists, b) separately and that c) there is a separate allowance, just to make sure you don't get too much for your £85. Digital highwaymen and grave-robbers. This app has 0 functionality and zero for UX - thanks Copilot!

Trust & Safety: The app requests a broad permission set (camera, microphone, storage, internet, notifications, NFC, foreground service, wake lock, etc.) typical for multimedia design apps. This aligns with its features (image creation, editing, background removal, etc.). Users should review privacy terms and permissions usage, especially around media access and background tasks, to ensure comfort with data handling and cloud storage.
