I have never truly disliked an app more than this
I’ve used a lot of apps and I’ve had a lot of games. This one is awful. The layout is confusing and badly designed, the competitions aren’t fun nor do they actually provide you with anything useful. And the pay to win is even worse. I haven’t ever given a 1 star review and I like to be open minded to new apps but this on takes the cake as the worst app I’ve ever been unfortunate enough to download. 0/10 app
Feature to add
Can you please add a feature under the photo information that displays the image's performance percentage? This percentage would be calculated by dividing the number of votes received by the number of views the photo has received. By showing the performance percentage, it would be very helpful to determine which photos are the best to use in competitions.
Fake
The majority of people uploading to this are taking from AI generated shots and winning. Not worth your time… and it’s obvious what they are uploading.
They don’t care for the customers
The support staff are not very supportive. They very seldom respond to any messages that you send them with concerns. When they do it’s a cut and paste answer. I have written many times about cheating and instead of answering my concerns they just ignore me. They allow cheating and will not fix this issue or communicate about it.
Surprised you have this many downloads
This was a great app at first. But then you started adding keys to every single decent entry. On top of that you charge for application to enter photos into contest across the world that we have no idea whether or not you’re just ripping us off or actually submitting the photos. I enjoy photography, but I don’t pay to submit my photos. My photos our actual revenue. The moment I start going backwards is the moment I delete this app, and that is now.
Turbos are hurting this app
Overall it’s a fun app and a great way to compare your photos to other amateurs and professionals alike. My biggest issue is that the results of challenges are not a reflection of the quality of the images. I know it’s a game and not necessarily the best photo wins every time. But the recent introduction of the turbo has made that problem way worse. It took the app from an even playing field for all pictures inside a challenge and now your success in a challenge is based on how well you do in a 50/50 quiz on how popular other photos are. If the turbos were either done away with completely or made easier to achieve I would rate it higher, but with the way it is it just takes away any interest in challenges you don’t get the turbo in.
What’s the point?
It’s not a fair platform. You have to purchase boosts in order to have a chance at becoming a “guru”. And then what? I’ve been joining challenges literally for over 4 years without purchasing any of their in app packages and I’ve seen horrible photos that don’t even fit the challenges that become gurus or whatever. Yet the good photos (without the purchases) don’t stand a chance. In my opinion, this is stupid
We've updated the app to fix some bugs and make features load faster.
