Banned again

After sending a pic of my pet cat I have been banned yet again, so here we go developers there is a simple solution for this ! Photoswap Adult and charge a fee for it, this should keep the kids off it, if I want to see a picture of someones tv or pet cat I go on the free version of photoswap, if I want to see a picture of a female with her puppies out i go on photoswap adult SIMPLE ! Nobody would get banned and eveyone sees what they want to see and you make money out of it, everyones a winner.... So come on I'm sure lots more users agree with me. And the users out there who havn't filled out there info it's easy : go to your settings in your iPhone you will see photoswap in there, open it and fill out your info. If enough of us tell the developers we want photoswap adult they might do something about it. I have now deleted photoswap after yet another ban and have now downloaded phototrader, try it it's 100% better than this app.

Good App, spoiled by some users

A fun photo sharing App, ruined by the (many) people out to simply share "adult images". Those interested in simply sharing interesting/odd/unusual/moving/beautiful images are put off by the skewed usuage of the app. Why not have a separate "adult" version so everyone can get the type of images they are happy with sharing? Or have an "adult" filter which is selectable, to achieve the same thing? I quickly got bored with the app after continually receiving images of feet or bedclothes, as a prelude to the user looking for an adult photoswap conversation. It's an easy fix, so why have the devs not done it?

CrotchSwap

I really like this App...I like trying to be creative to capture an awesome shot, and exchange cool pics with someone else who appreciates photography. But, more recently, 2 times out if three, I get back a picture of some guy's crotch. What is it about guys and crotches that make them think that's what girls want?!? I'm deleting this App because of the boring, mundane crotch photos!!

Oh, and I actually like that there are no text responses...it makes me find cooler and more unique ways to talk to people (worst case scenario, writing on a piece of paper and taking a picture of it)...

Good... But could be 10 x better...

Yeah... Really funny at times but too many blokes from Italy showing there Pyjama bits! Developers read this... Force a login for pic takers & ask the recipients of pics to rate easily the pics received so blokes with their bits out end up on a minus figure or whatever. Then allow users to filter pics based on rating or content or location etc.. Add email addresses to be included as a field to aid easy contact & with the ability to filter location you have social networking on the fly! A good start though

Good concept gone bad

I like the concept of the app: sharing random pics with strangers and seeing images from around the world. However, the service ends up being used by fat hairy guys showing pictures of their crotch hoping to get a reply by hot chicks. The "report" button gets abused. I was addicted using it daily until I got banned for reply to someone in Japan after taking a pic of my japanese translation book. should be a faster process to evalute "report" button offenses. Needs to add ability to save pics on phone or sometype of website (social networking, flickr, etc.) Developers could even add some type of login service and fourum. App has potential but seems like the developers have abandoned this app.

Could do without all the leg shots

App is fun, until you run into one of the countless shots of some dudes left leg and foot...why send that picture? Get creative. Also, then "send" button needs some type of color/shade change when you 444 hit the button, because sometimes it takes quite a few seconds to send a pic and i don't know if the button was even pressed. Also, if its possible to get a friends list, that would be a nice loop hole around the MMS messaging problem we are having with AT&T and the iPhone. :)

Must have!!!

More suitable for adults, due to the sexual uses of the app. But it's a great idea and can be a great way to waste a few hours!

Be careful

Fun and interesting concept, very well executed. Pity about the idiots who think the world actually wants to see them in their underwear (or worse).

One warning: if you're going to take photos of your expensive home theatre setup, or your face, remember to turn off the location feature in Settings. Thanks to this app I know now exactly where somebody lives who has a sweet bigscreen Samsung LCD hooked up to an XBox, PS3 and Apple TV. Too bad it's in another country.

good application but needs improving

Great fun with this application, although you can see it does need improving in places. Ideally the report button moved out the way perhaps to the top of the screen as its way to easy to press whilst intending to press something else. As other have said previously ideally have a age setting on it so that you can make sure your kids dont get to see photos they shouldn't. I also think it would be a good idea if the photo notified you with a sound when you have received a photo.

Reportin

I think it's a great app but people really do get reported for normal clean pics. Some people deserve it so don't get rid of the report button. Sometimes you need it. But maybe put a time limit ban on people that report pics that are the normal clean ones. Also a timed ban on stupid hairy leg pics. LOL tired of seeing that. For the most part it us a GREAT app to pass time by swapping with people. I actually met someone on the that I'm actually friends with now.

Maybe set caegories so that people looking for "the stuff" can go to a strictly adult category and others won't be bothered by the hairy legs n cleavage.
