Great App!
Unsplash is the best place for finding high quality images for your projects. I also really enjoy sharing my work on it for others to use.
Great for widgets, but…
I use the app for its widget feature and it’s great! But, I have a few suggestions for better usability:
Sometimes I want to change the image and for that, I have to either change the theme or frequency back and forth. Just a “Refresh” or “Change Image” option would be nice.
Another thing is I can’t have two same-size widgets open with the same frequency AND theme. Because then the same photo is displayed on both widgets. I want them to be different, so I’m forced to change the frequency or theme of one of them. I’d like it if each one was different, no matter the settings.

Love this app BUT
There has been a problem for a while now where I can only download one photo at a time. If I download one picture, I have to close the whole app if I want to download another. It’s much more difficult to stay on the app longer because of the constant opening and closing. I’ve tried everything, deleting and reinstalling, I’ve even gotten a new phone and it still does it. I don’t know where to submit actual app issues with Unsplash so I shall put it on here and hope the developers see it.

STOP MAKING GRATUITOUS CHANGES TO THE UI!
Unsplash is becoming more and more annoying and difficult to use because of meaningless changes to the UI!
Don't auto enlarge photos and hide the Apple information strip at the top. I cannot begin to explain how irritating changes like this are.
Show us users some respect and add preferences on how we would like the photos to be displayed instead of just assuming. It's arrogant for your developers to assume they know better than we do.

Wish I had more Controls
Because I hate all social media platforms, and most people’s opinions - I love Unsplash. Just beautiful photos uploaded by artists - no comments or captions. ALMOST perfect!
I do wish I had the capability to favorite certain photographers or styles to see more of the work that I enjoy more regularly (nature, athletics, spirituality, 3D renders), and to hide certain photographers and works to show less of the work that I do not prefer to see daily (violence, darkness, sexuality, political activism). Some artists upload pieces that are a little borderline for my liking; and though I do wish them their freedom of expression, I also wish I had to ability to shield my own eyes from works that I do not appreciate in the least.
Give me some control/privacy/user settings, and then I would consider this app perfect.

Remarkable pictures
When my photographer cousin told me about this app , it made sense to me to use it all the time. I like to use photos for front covers to display on a website / App called Soundcloud. I write ambient music mostly so great atmospheric photos look great with the music. The quality of photos here is remarkable.

Just joined!
I have been writing on a website for over a year now and have seen Unsplash credited to photos. Great photos!
Thought I’d look you up and find out how much the other writers were spending.
FREE! Holy filmstrips Batman!
So I just perused the work and realized that it is fantastic. And, you invited all types of cameras to submit. So I will be submitting my iPhone 11 photos with additional editing work from Photoleap and Lightroom, and perhaps Insta Toon, as even they have a couple of image enhancers that can bring an original image to life
I’ll enjoy using this app!

App Improvements
Hey Unsplash, i love your site. Its very welcoming for me to let my pictures live. I do have just two notes though one my tags are not coming up when i search them up in the browse tab, and two i think the search space can be updated a bit so people can start filling up the search tabs with proper images they describe, not something else when you go to search up for something. Nonetheless, im going to continue uploading and participating. Its the best place to have images on an application.

Ok except for one thing
Unsplash is a great app. It gives you free, high resolution, and cool photos. But, after a while, (i dont know if other people have experienced this,) I couldnt download anymore pictures and the photos were getting pixelated. Other than that, its good.
EDIT: It did download but it didnt say it did. Please fix this

My favorite app
This is my favorite app. It a great place to look at other photographers work or get a new wallpaper and even submit your own work. Seeing my photos get downloaded really makes me want to go shoot more and looking at others work is also very inspiring. A must have app for every photographer. Also every photo is copyright free and can be used anywhere on the web! Just a perfect system.
