### 1/5 — Select all feature missing

*2017-10-22, version 2.20*

There was a feature to select all photos to upload and it is missing now.  Why did they remove this very useful feature?
Without the ability to select all photos this app is completely useless.  I don’t think anyone has the patience or time to upload hundreds of photos from phone by selecting photos one by one.

### 1/5 — Explorer for SmugMug Pro

*2017-10-10, version 2.19*

This app is broken. I get a login error regarding an unavailable token. But the app lets me log in. But then it won’t let me download any of my pics. Not newly uploaded pics. None will download. The error message is URL not found on server. This app used to be good but now it’s a piece of crap.

### 1/5 — Does not work. Cannot log in

*2017-10-01, version 2.19*

I get a red box with "Error to get request" token and cannot log in
I contacted Yunhe. His first response was very telling "I get the error too, but it does not prevent me from logging in". Really? And you think this is okay? He then agreed to "look at smugmug documentation" Haven't heard from him since then. Worthless. Stay away.

### 1/5 — Won't let me log in

*2017-05-04, version 2.19*

Some big red box with token error 

Do essentially worthless  should have been warned by other review

### 1/5 — Might be great if it let me sign in

*2017-03-31, version 2.19*

No token code was sent ... keep getting error message... can't sign in without the token code. Wrote to developer and got no response... just wrote again... would love to try the app since I bought it

### 5/5 — The Best

*2015-09-05, version 2.19*

All the features I want is in the app.

### 5/5 — Almost there

*2014-12-11, version 2.3*

Is doing all that I need it to do. I would like it if it opened to the galleries first since that's where I go most of the time.

### 5/5 — Easy upload

*2014-10-06, version 2.0*

This is so easy to use. If I can figure it out and successfully upload pic to my SmugMug account than anyone can do it. It is so fast.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2014-08-30, version 1.26*

Used to work fine but now won't upload from my iPhone.

### 1/5 — App doesn't start on iOS 7.1.2 iPhone 5s

*2014-08-25, version 1.26*

Not sure how to review as application doesn't run.  Please fix.
