  • Pointless

    Rubbish. Crashes every time when I tries to lock in. How am I meant to save my selection if I can't access a lightbox?
  • Meh.

    Good enough for browsing, but not all that useful for actually using the system.

    Needs to have functionality approaching that of the web site or at least the Getty app. Should also be formatted for iPad which would be much more useful for this purpose anyway.
  • How disappointing

    There's nothing terribly wrong with this app but one can't help be disappointed that after all this time this app isn't universal. Surely it's obvious to anyone with half a brain cell can see that the iPad is ideally suited for n app of this nature. For iStockphoto to have failed to upgrade their mobile app strategy reveals a lazy lack of understanding of how he technology landscape is changing

  • Worth the price

    Seems like people are ripping this app for features that it doesn't offer, not features that it offers but fails to execute on.
    It's a free app. It let's you search through images, and let's you view some contributor stats like daily/monthly downloads and royalties. It does both of those things pretty well.

    All though I might like to see more features, im certainly not going to give them a 1-2 star review because of it. If they charged me $5 for it sure then id be disappointed. But for Free there's not much to argue.

  • I love this app!!!

    I was sitting thinking I needed to do some image searches for a couple of clients, but didn't want to go to my desk. As I was lounging in my comfy seat in the living room I wondered if istockphoto had an app... and low and behold they do!!! It is perfect for what I needed. Created my lightbox and a few minutes into my search voila images for my client!!! Sooo very cool!

  • Fantastic app!

    If you use iStockphoto for any reason, then this app is for you.
    I'm a contributor and I use it to keep track of my uploads and sales stats.

    The authors have done a great job, and continually improve the app via updates.
    And you know what I like best? The price.

    But. Can we PLEASE have some different images when it first opens? I'm tired of seeing the same ones again and again.

  • Pretty but not that useful

    The other ap is much better from a contributor stats point of view this one is ok for looking at photos but without any real advanced search power not really all that useful would like to see the functionality of the other ap built into this one
  • faster than actual site

    I find images waay faster using this app than I do on the site.

    and for the people who cry EVERYTIME they see a nude photo, grow up. this app is for publishers, not your 5 yr old kid
  • Well Designed App

    Easy to navigate, full access to iStockPhoto library. You can tell they spent some time thinking about how to make this good instead of just mailing it in...
  • Thrilled!

    Great app, for a great source of royalty free stock images. Am thrilled. I am using on iPad and while the app is not yet optimized for the iPad, the images display well, with very little pixelation. Search is fast. Adding to my iStockphoto lightbox is easy, for purchase outside of app itself. Again, am thrilled!!
