### 1/5 — Subscription model with no warning

*2023-06-08*

I paid for and downloaded this app years ago to preserve my kids’ artwork in a dedicated space. I opened it up to add some new artwork and see that it has been changed to a monthly subscription model. No thank you. There was no email or notice to notify of this change. Now I’m stuck trying to figure out how to download all the artwork I’ve saved here so I can save it somewhere else. Some advance warning and a chance to move content would have been nice.

### 1/5 — Monthly fees?

*2023-06-06*

I am disappointed at the new monthly fees for the app. It was something I was not expecting at all. Thats too bad.

### 5/5 — Great app! Simple and easy to use

*2020-10-22, version 2.8.0*

I love this app..great way to organize and save my kids precious artwork!!

### 2/5 — Better off taking photo outside of app

*2019-01-12, version 2.8.0*

Taking the pictures inside the app is frustrating- the editing options are terrible. Better off taking the photos with the regular phone camera and using the iPhone editing tools.  Upload to app for organization but I have yet to see the advantage of organizing within this app instead of just making albums on your phone.  I haven’t tried making any prints or books yet through the app so can’t comment on that yet.  I like the idea of this app, but the editing tools seem oddly subpar considering they could leverage the existing photo editing. For example- you can’t rotate the orientation of a photo without cropping it.  Maybe I’m missing something?

### 1/5 — Won’t open

*2018-09-29, version 2.7.0*

I paid for and downloaded this app, but it won’t open. I have deleted and reloaded, but it still won’t open properly.

### 1/5 — Tiny files, frustrating quality

*2018-09-06, version 2.7.0*

After taking a picture of your child’s artwork, the image size is extremely low!  When you go back to view it, you can’t zoom in because you’re looking at the full size there on your phone. When you share the image with someone, the file is laughably small—a fraction of the size of the artwork, measuring only a few inches tall on the computer screen. I’m not sure how you’re ever going to get a decent quality print of anything through Walgreens with this super small format, but I already regret losing my $2.99 buying this app.

**Developer response:** Leah,

We store the images in 2 formats. The high quality image is sent for printing and the lower resolution is stored to display on app so there is no performance issues. Hope that helps clarify.

### 1/5 — Pay for Backup??

*2018-05-26, version 2.7.0*

So I purchased the app but now it wants me to pay an additional $2.99 just for the privilege of backing up the artwork? Shouldn't that be part of the package? Is this some new kind of way to "monetize" the developer's bottom line? So disappointed.

### 5/5 — Finally an easy way to save all my kids school work!

*2017-12-30, version 2.7.0*

I love how easy this app is to organize my kids school work. Each item is organized by child. Can even share with family members. Also had awesome customer support!

### 5/5 — Never go away!

*2017-02-19, version 2.6.2*

Please never let this app go away or I would be devastated! I LOVE using it to store all my children's artwork to get rid of the clutter around the house!  It would be great if it had more options for printing (putting one on a page does not really save any space), and to be able to include caption, date and age automatically would be awesome too!  I also don't love that when you go to print it mixes both kids artwork into one folder to select - difficult to decipher who's scribbles are who's. ;) Guessing that might be any easy fix?  Thanks Canvsly!

**Developer response:** Thanks for the kind words! Printing wise we do have a lot of options. You can choose multiple images on a page. Please go into photo books option (Non Walgreen). We like your feedback on ability to choose by artist. We will try to fix that. Please stay tuned!

### 2/5 — Difficulties with app

*2016-04-07*

While this app is great for posting photos of artwork online, making a photo book is another story. Most of the photos I'm trying to put into a phot book are automatically cropped, and so much of the photo is lost that it's not worth printing. I hope this can be fixed, or I'll have to look for another way to print a book of my child's artwork. I'm ready to throw all of these papers away!
