  • Great but missing key features.

    It’s great at creating inspiration boards or mood boards that are local but it lacks in the tools that would make it an actual amazing organization tool, such as bulk tag or keyword editing. Otherwise, it’s the best in the market
  • It’s only missing one thing.

    I cannot express how many times I’ve dreamed of this exact app existing. And by “exact”, I literally mean there is nothing about it I would change… but there is one thing I would add, and that is GIF file support.

    Upon testing if GIF files were compatible with this app, I cannot express how disappointed I was when I found out that—while you can import GIF files themselves no problem, they never actually move at all, for the app will only display the first frame of the GIF—and I was only as disappointed as I was because it felt like I was so close to having the perfect application that I’ve been seeking out for so long.

    For the sake of comparison, if we take Google Photos, for example (a very similar photo/album management app), within each album you have on it, GIFs are are not only compatible, but they move as they are supposed to. This is the case not only upon expanding the image, but also upon the entire photo grid view. In other words, I can scroll through all of my photos, and the GIFs will still constantly loop live.

    If there is any possibility of this being an added feature/ability regarding the future of this app, then this app will deserve five stars in my book. (Maybe even six!) Otherwise, it is phenomenal regardless, and I can’t thank you enough for it!

    Hello and thank you so much for your positive review and feedback! GIF support is something that is being considered to be added in the future but I don’t have exact timeline for it yet. Stay tuned for more updates and have a great day!
  • Great App

    Finally, a true successor to Ember!
  • Fantastic app

    Finally an app to replace Ember.
  • Crashes

    This app is not useful to me. I lost all my images due to it crashing.
  • A bit buggy on Desktop

    I haven't a use case for mobile but desktop only and the app is pretty troubling sometimes as a mac app.
  • Amazing app

    Have to say this app is one of my favorites, it’s invaluable for keeping track of assets and inspiration for graphics and design work. It’s like a personal pinterest. I like that the app interface is super polished and instantly intuitive to anyone familiar with iOS. It’s especially great how the native markup tool is integrated right into the app as well.

    If I had a critique, I wish the markup annotations would show all the time, not just when the full image is viewed. But it’s not a huge deal.

    Awesome that it’s a single purchase for the iPad, iPhone, AND the Mac versions.. Since most apps would charge a separate fee for each, it’s a steal for something that flawlessly syncs between all my devices.

  • Was expecting more

    Doesn’t really do much. Was pretty surprised to see such a basic app have a monthly subscription built into it.. i’d much rather something this simple allow me tonuse all the features for a one time fee.
  • Great Concept but Lacking Features

    Overall this app concept was exactly what I was looking for and purchased a month trial on my MacBook. Unfortunately I’ve already canceled my subscription because of the app lacking some important features.
    1. Not being able to share your boards is the main missing feature that made me switch to another app. This feature is extremely important for anyone collaborating on a group project.
    2. There were also a few bugs within the app that were beyond annoying. Anytime I’d try to save one of the images to my photos folder, it wouldn’t let me save another image until the program was closed and reopened.
    3. My account wouldn’t sync to the app on my iphone which is feature that’s a must for busy on the go people who aren’t able to take their laptops with them.

  • Almost Perfect

    Part of being a creative is being inspired and I have alot of images ive saved up over the years that I would rather keep into organized tabs and this app does it perfectly. Ive wanted something like this since forever.

    The only thing i would suggest is letting us share our tabs with other people because right now you cant send your stuff to any other app or person currently on ios.

    Overall good job And super affordable subscription

    Thank you very much for your review and feedback! While the ability to have shared collections is not yet on the feature roadmap, I will certainly keep it in mind when planning how to improve the app. Please, feel free to share any additional feedback in the future as you use the app. Thank you again!
