Best of the bunch!!! I downloaded several apps that were supposed to "lasso" only the desired object. All the others apps (free version of top 6) where hard to figure out, continually blasting ads, one even after I closed the app. This was the least frustrating app by a mile!!! I was selecting a figure that was various shades of cream and tan from a white background, and this tool did the best job of auto detecting. I did have to spend time refining the selection, but much less than other apps.
