I love it

So good, I find lots of beautiful artwork here.

One thing, I’d like it if the developers could add an “favourite” feature, where you can favourite your most liked artwork (not the art that yourself designs) and then it’s in the “favourite” album, rather than going through tons of pictures you’ve liked. Thanks 👍

I regret nothing

I have been using this website for years to get wallpapers for my phone, computer and, consuls have with this app is I can never have just one and choosing has been the hardest part for me . To everyone keep up the good work

Great platform for beginners

There are so many amazing artists in Pixiv that have inspired me to pick up drawing again, the app is very easy to navigate and it’s my go to app for inspiration or help from my fav artists through their fan boxes! 5/5

Good

Good art

App is Faster but ALOT less functional.

So comparing the app to the mobile web version, the only thing I can really say that the app has an edge on is how quickly images load and and fast you can navigate settings/works/collections. The app for some reason doesn’t include most of the sites features. On the app you CANT; ‘like’ any posts, only bookmark them/ you cant scroll through more of a creators posts under an image without actually going to their profile/ you can’t comment or view comments on any posts/ you can’t use the messenger or even view any messages/ you can’t view your own dashboard or analytics. There’s probably more things you can’t do on the app but that’s what sticks out to me. If I just want to browse through my collection I prefer the app, but literally ANYTHING else the mobile site does better. App is really lacking.

I suggest not to use this app.

I’ve used this app for about 3 weeks and I can say affirmatively say I don’t like this app, one because almost every thing is lock behind “pixiv premium” and there is some really messed up artwork. Here’s one of my problems, if there is a tag with artwork you don’t want to see you can only block that one tag, if you want to block more tags you need a “premium” account. And all around I hate this app and I have been disgusted by some of the crap I’ve seen on this app.
Honestly I suggest that you don’t use this app, personally I deleted my account and have deleted the app on my phone.

Great app

good alternative from twitter for art, i wish there were more viewing options for the home page though, like less images per page, but larger size

Good app, scummy tactics for premium

The app itself is serviceable. The UI could be better and there are some features missing from the web version, but it works well enough. The problem is how they push you to use premium which is a subscription for money.

Certain features are “premium exclusive” which I could understand if these features weren’t basic quality of life features for most other websites. The most egregious example of this is Tag Muting. You are allowed to mute one tag at a time without premium, preventing any works with that tag from showing on your feed. The issue here is that there are many tags that are generally seen as morally disgusting available that for use, and you are only allowed to have one of these muted at a time unless you pay for premium.
A great example of this would be for gore. I personally don’t like to see gore and would keep this tag muted. While I’m browsing, I come across physical abuse, for example, and wish to mute this too. I would be forced to either unmute the gore tag or pay for a subscription service.

Good app, rigid features

This app makes browsing the website just easier whenever you’re on the go or in your own home. The art that come from the artists are fine too. Aside from the good. It is tougher to get a specific search that you want unless you pay for their subscription service they have on the website. Aside form that I say it is pretty good overall

Fantastic selection

It’s easy to spend hours browsing through the thousands of pieces of artwork here. There are incredibly talented people out there and it’s so nice to have a place to view their work.
