Missing features for user experience

I am currently moving all my data over to SYW from another app, and I’ve noticed there are a number of gaps in the features that make it less useful, so I’ll sort my thoughts into pros and cons. Pros: I really like that the details for garments include composition so that it can give you info for care, as well as the services by location (although my city isn’t there yet). I’ve never seen this on an app and it’ll probably create a lot more awareness among users of how to make their clothing last longer. I also think the look of the of the app is really nice and modern. Cons: First, there is no way to edit the photos or the background removal for clothing. I’d really like to be able to fix the automatic background removal manually with a brush function, especially since I like to take photos of my clothing while wearing the items (it makes outfits a lot easier to visualize!), as well as options to fix saturation, brightness, sharpness, temperature, etc. since phone cameras aren’t always true to colour. I also think the app is missing a purchase date feature, which would help me see my consumption over time. The app is could also use stats such as most purchased brands, cost per wear, total closet value, etc. There also need to be more options for how to build outfits because people have different ways of visualizing things, including a carousel (with editable categories) and a free placement page. Finally, the library is not user friendly to navigate. The general categories should be at the top for ease of browsing and when you click it should offer a second bar for the sub-categories. The way the photos are cropped is also such a pet peeve of mine for some reason 😭. I really think this app can be so useful to fill a gap in the rapidly growing green fashion market, so I hope my review is taken as feedback, not criticism and the developers make some these much needed additions. Keep up the good work and I look forward to seeing future updates!

Easy simple closet app

I was overwhelmed with the closet organization/fashion apps. After reading some reviews, I chose this one and I’m glad I did. I’ve only had it for short time and I’ve only uploaded a few items but so far I think this is going to be exactly what I was looking for. I wanted some thing where I could add wardrobe items and make outfits, and add them to my calendar so that I could plan out my work wardrobe in advance based on events, weather, etc. I do not plan to painstakingly catalog everything at once, but as I wear things, and when I find time, I am snapping the pics so far, I’ve had no trouble with the background remover. It’s not great, but not terrible either I don’t need it to be awesome.

Love the idea but create outfit doesn’t work properly

Love how you can set up different folders and get creative but disappointed that the create outfit part doesn’t work properly. It layers all the items on top of each other and then I assume I should be able to move them around to create a mood board style image but they can’t be moved for some reason

Thank you so much for your lovely words! We really appreciate your support to continue improving our app! Regarding the creation of the Outfit Collage, after selecting the desired items, they will be displayed on top of each other, then you will just need to click on the item and drag it to the desired position. We hope that this will be helpful! Don't hesitate to contact us at support@saveyourwardrobe.com if any other issues emerged.

Suspect this app is just to get personal info

I downloaded the app because it sounded like a great way to track my wardrobe for sustainability, use of various clothing items, and to put together outfits visually in order to quickly browse through pre-made looks so I don’t have to think about it the day of.

When trying to sign up, I first selected to sign up via email. I immediately received the email to verify, but when I clicked on the link it took me to the app to the same page that tells me to look for the verification email. After trying a few times, I manually selected to open in safari and was given a page telling me my email had been successfully verified and to return to the app and login. When I tried to it wouldn’t let me. Thinking I must have entered the password incorrectly when signing up, I tried to select forgot password. It said it would send me another email with a link, but I never received one. After trying multiple times, checking my junk folder, and waiting 10 minutes, I decided to try signing up with google instead as it may be an easier process. In order to sign up via Google the app wanted access to view and search my emails. That seems really sketch to me and I wasn’t comfortable with that at all. I tried one last time to recover my password before I finally just deleted the app from my phone. I’m really disappointed because it seems like a great concept but upon further inspection now seems to be a way for them to phish your info.

We apologise for this experience. Our team is trying to resolve the sign up issue. The reason we ask for access to your Gmail online fashion email receipts is to scan them and automatically add items that you've bought online into your wardrobe.

Incredibly useful

I love organizing things and I want to make an effort to consume less. This app helps me keep track of what I own and how I can use it. I really appreciate that it’s free without ads as well.
My only issue with it is that the clothing categories in the womenswear section are a bit limited.

Great but could use one update

I absolutely love this app. However, I wanted to download an app so that after I upload my clothes it would give me an option for the app to give me a recommended outfit or a randomized outfit. I love what this app has so far but almost every other app has this feature and I think if SYW had this feature, I would definitely recommend this for my friends.

Great app but could be amazing

I’d say the app is already better than all other similar ones, however it seems to be missing a few vital features.
In particular the lack of ability to add multiple items at once, having to import each photo one at a time is beyond tedious and I just find myself not wanting to use the app. If you could add all your photos at once and then go back and scroll through and add all the details like you can on other apps that would make it amazing.

Not user friendly interface

I wanted to love this app but after using it for over a year I’m giving up. The user interface is not compatible for easy use, picture boxes for clothes are far too big and often crop images weirdly. I understand The focus is on sustainability but there’s far too many things going on at once to make it an easy to use and navigate closet app like I wanted. The design could use some serious streamlining and easier filter and folder methods and organization

Useful but poor functioning

I love this app and I probably have used it everyday since I downloaded it 9 months ago. It’s so convenient seeing my closet and having the app remove the background of my photos. That’s a great feature. I also like that it categorizes that clothing, tells you what percent of your wardrobe you wear, tells you how good the brand is, let’s you create outfits, and lots more. I will say, this app really lacks in its speed and is technologically behind. It lags regardless of my wifi connection and you cannot easily go through one section of the app to the other. If this app was fast running I would love this app more than life itself.

Does not consider time

The app doesn’t allow you to input how much time you’ve owned a piece, so ratings about your wardrobe’s sustainability are mostly superficial and related to brand, not whether or not you’ve kept your clothes from going in the dumpster. Many sustainability problems have to do with waste.

A Reformation dress that you wear once and throw away is not necessarily sustainable, even though the brand rates very highly on this app.

It’s a well designed enough app, with some cool features, but for anyone whose been into sustainability for a while, it lacks nuance. The app seems mostly like a way to encourage shoppers to buy expensive brands, which not all of us can afford.

An H&M shirt that you’ve had for five years is still sustainable - in its own way. The most important part is keeping your clothes and caring for them in whatever way you can to avoid creating waste.

If you’re new to these concepts the app might be fun, if not, I wouldn’t recommend it for the purposes of sustainability.

I can’t comment on the other features as I’ve always done my own alterations and therefore did not try the hire a tailor option.
