Worth the price for me

Once I upgraded to pro, this was exactly what I needed and had been looking for. The free version was just too constricting.

Just Sell Me The App

This continuous yearly monetization scheme is nonsense. You make an app and I want to buy your app- Sell it.

The App itself is useful but I'm not going to pay to rent a stagnant piece of software.

Stop telling me to upgrade to Pro when I already paid for Pro

Love the app except that even though I am in my second year of paying for Pro it keeps limiting me and saying I have to have Pro to do what I want to do. I’m looking at my Apple subscription info and it clearly says I have Pro through July 6, 2024.

Fix your records and stop limiting my actions.

Outstanding

I’ve used a lot of note apps and tried to use photos to keep track of things for years. This app makes it all work seamlessly across my iCloud for all my devices.

Excellent execution and a beautiful design!

Best kept secret!

Amazing! I have organized all my pictures and able to edit and add notes. It has cut my searching for the right notes or references down 80% while working.

This might work!

My photo library is full of reminders - that I can never find again! I am thrilled to be able to pull those into Birch and delete them from Photos. Will take all new memory snaps with Birch and immediately hashtag. I am ADD and visually inclined.

Great photo catalog app

I use this to organize my pottery glazes, it works better than the current pottery glaze apps that are available. Not a fan of subscription apps but it’s clean, attractive and does what I need it to do.

Ugh

well designed but you need to pay to add more than one photo ☹️

Finally a visual productivity app

Love it. Using already. Few questions: for someone in a health workplace, how is your data secured? If I have a patient info in a pic am I/are you/we covered?

Part two: any family sharing/calendar reminder functionality planned? Any integrating with smart devices? Excellent app, saw the stormtrooper reddit post, great use of your time. Also, the design symphony is beautifully simple.

Pps: any thoughts on pic stitching? I’ve immediately went to sort my recipes and it works as a multi image note but might be smoother as one long image. I can see how that would cause other problems tho.

Simple solution for organizing visual notes and commentary

My Apple Photos app is cluttered with screen shots, snap shots, visual reminders, receipts, art study, and family photos. Really gets in the way of managing my fine art photos. Apple’s keyword tagging is feeble, and can only be done on Mac—not iOS.
Now I can just index all the documentary stuff with keywords in birch, add explanatory text as needed, and delete the copy in the Photos. Finally a way to preserve ideas & records, while keeping my artwork and family photos at my fingertips on all my devices.

Great app!

Very helpful. Would love to see a more robust system for adding hash tags to photos in the camera roll

Nice

Nice

Love this app

I had a mild scare when I lost a lot of photos after upgrading my phone, but the Birch team walked me through some troubleshooting, and now I have them back.

Loving this app so far!

I am a very visual adhd person and my photos app has definitely been used as a notes app! This app is great and exactly what I’ve been looking for for ages, thank you!

Only a couple of ideas/suggestions/requests: -a sort of “zoom out” or grid feature, some sort of way to toggle a view that shows more posts at once.
-a widget with a shortcut button to take a photo, and/or a way to link to photo mode with url schemes or the Shortcuts app. I would love to have a button on my homepage that immediately opens to the camera in this app.

That being said, I’m thrilled with the app in general. I’ve already started using it for my work notes and home organisation ideas, though I’ve no doubt I’ll use it for much more!

This is the app I’ve been looking for

I saw this app mentioned on Reddit, I use it all the time. Pay for the premium version. Very inexpensive and well worth the cost.

BIRCH PHOTO APP

This is a great app on the market and I love it
this app keeps your pictures and notes i this app scores
And AAAAAA-+

Cool app

birch is very handy for marking or tagging your photos in your phone! You are able to take a pic or send it to Birch where you then can add hashtags. Later when you need a photo you can look on Birch and your saved, hash tagged photos will be in the feed or you can search by hash tag for a photo! Very very cool .... especially if you save pictures of everything to help you remember but can then, never find them in photos or iCloud!

Perfect for creators who curate photos

This is eliminating one of my biggest headaches. Allowing me to use an app that easily allows me to store my ideas from photos is huge! Especially for someone I was diagnosed ADHD. Only one thing missing… The ability to add images from the browser under the share option. Add this is flawless.

Love the potential

This is a great concept that could very well replace the Apple Notes app on my phone.

Suggestions, in order of what I feel would help achieve that:

-Document scanner(!!!)
-Locked/encrypted notes
-A nice touch for us Apple Pencil users: sketch on the photo!

Thanks & keep it up 👍
