Now at least my art photos are organized

I, like I’m sure many others, have thousands and thousands of photos stored between my phone and iCloud, and they’re totally unorganized. But now, with this app, at least I can make a small dent in that chaos— this app makes it easy to organize all of the photos I’ve taken of art I’ve liked over the years! It’s pretty seamless. Much smoother than throwing my pics into a reverse image search on Google. I’m not a huge fan of AI, but I think this is a good application— it’s not eroding my creativity, just replacing the drudgery of photo organization.

A dream come true!

I’ve been waiting for this app for years! Finally one spot to find all the art I’ve seen around the world.

Too many photos?

I’m interested in my art photos but more as a way to catalog numerous art shows by others in my home town of Auroville India. They have a group of studios that will have many shows annually and they aren’t being recorded properly. And I feel the need to archive and document the growth and evolution in this fairly unique culture. I was wondering if this would be a system that could be used, even though they are not “known artists”. I like the fact that it could be phone based. I’ve looked at expensive art dealer software that is for handling art seen as keeping track of inventory and accounting purposes. This seems better.

Ideas?

Fun after the museum

When you do not have time to analyze or appreciate art in the moment or as long as you would like, this app keeps the learning and appreciation going.

Laggy with large libraries

Unfortunately with a large library (>1000 scans) the app is almost unusable, it takes 10 seconds to open up any of the scanned artwork from the library. Otherwise a cool app but not worth the purchase until it is rectified.

Response from developer

Hi — thanks for your review and for flagging this. We’ve identified the performance issue affecting larger libraries and have an update coming soon that should significantly improve load times for users with many scans. I really appreciate your patience, and thanks again for helping us improve ArtScan.

너무 느려요

어플은 괜찮은데 너무너무너무 느려서 속터지고 쓰기 불편해요……개선 부탁드려요. 결제해서 쓰고 있는데 터치 한번 해도 안 먹고 계에에에에에속 눌러야지 한번 클릭돼요. 제발 개선좀 해주세요 제발 좀

Not there yet

I have wanted this app to exist for so long, and it almost works— but, the AI component is a disaster. I take thousands of photos of exhibitions I see, at museums and galleries, and uploaded about 100 from various contexts as a trial. The app’s AI misidentified nearly all of them, and the troubling thing is how confidently it misidentifies! It adds all the details of other works by other artists. The option exists to replace it with the info from a photo of the wall label, but it doesn’t replace it altogether, it corrects the basics (artist, title, media) but leave all kinds of other incorrect info intact, leaving you with a jumble of accurate and inaccurate that you’d have to check like a hawk and manually type in corrections. Promising premise— I really, really wanted this— but it simply isn’t useable right now. In fact, if you value attribution at all, it’s downright dangerous. If I could turn off the AI altogether and just use it to catalog my images, I’d be delighted!

Hi - thanks for your review and sorry to hear about the issues you described. This feedback is very helpful (and appreciated!) as we look to continuously improve the app. Some new updates are on the way with those specific fixes, along with other improvements. Thanks again.

Deleted

Very disappointed. I used the trial to import 3 pictures; on all 3, the museum was incorrect. In one case, the picture had been in MOMA for almost 60 years. The other two had been in their museums for 20 years or so. These were permanent collections, so not loans from the museums the app listed. Titles on two of the three were also incorrect (third was untitled). I’ve deleted the app, very disappointed. BTW, it’s not an AI failure. My iPhone photo app identified all three correctly.

Response from developer

Thanks for your honest review, and I’m sorry ArtScan got these wrong. Accuracy is extremely important to us, especially for works in permanent collections. If you’re open to it, could you send the examples to support@artscanai.com? We’d appreciate the chance to investigate and improve the results.

Asks you to immediately pay a subscription

Asks you to immediately pay a subscription

i am not paying $60 per year for this

this is like a letterboxd for photos - so why is it paid? it won’t let you add more than 3 photos without asking to pay. yall have to pay yourself which i get but use ads or something. i deleted this right away.

So useful!

This is very basic but I always wanted to organize my art photos and I love having maps showing what I did. So it’s a great way to have that

Doesn’t work

If you live near an art gallery it uploads all your personal photos - rubbish!!

Response from developer

Sorry to hear about the issue. Could you reach out to support@artscanai.com so we can investigate further?

New participant

Only just downloaded. It identified 3 pictures, two obscure, immediately. Absolutely amazing! Thank you.

Very useful app

Excellent

Thank you for your review!

Near Perfect

Really cool app fulfilling a really great purpose and function. My only complaint is that it takes up a lot of power and data and can be a little laggy. However, with something so unique and novel, that’s not that much of an issue. I can’t fault an app for not being perfect in the first iteration, especially when it’s the only of its kind. I’m sure that over time the coding and development will only get better.

Great aop to organize your art photos

Response from developer

Thank you for your review and feedback!

Art Scan is awesome

I visit a lot of be museums and this is so much better than just having photos of favorite artworks! Sonoften I forget the name of an artwork and this app not only provides the name but great background information. It makes some mistakes but overall is a terrific resource.
