Great for sharing your work

Great for photography and nothing but. Have had nothing but positive interactions across the app.

Pinch zoom quirks

For the love of Pete PLEASE fix the pinch zoom behavior to stop accidentally rotating so easily (shouldn’t rotate at all) and ESPECIALLY to stop snapping back to default view most of the time.

I came to update this review and likely drop another star because of the bug of always snapping back to the top of a scrolled page after viewing an item. But I found the latest update fixed that. So good on that. But the stupid pinch zoom quirkiness is still very much present.

Great for photographers!!!

Excellent platform for sharing and viewing images!!!

Love Flickr

Flickr is good for photographers. Just need to add some customization to photographs arrangement and page design.

A slow app which will make it very difficult for you to even just upload a simple photo from recentl

Good luck trying to load photos from the native iOS or iPadOS photo picker. This app has been broken for well over half a decade, and they make no attempts to optimize the performance.

I double dare you to try to upload a photo you just saved that was edited from a long time ago. It does not respect the dates properly, nor does it order things properly. Good luck trying to load large albums or just any responsiveness. It’s pretty bad, and it has been across multiple devices for years. Just stick to the web and forget about this app, which has been abandoned, it feels like. I would be surprised if the developers wanted to follow up on this, but if they do, I’d be more than happy to show the use cases which involve going to post and then trying to choose a photo that was shot a few years ago and was saved from an app like VSCO, for example.

Great photo app

Lovely App!

I absolutely love the setup of this app it’s so intricate with all the little details and clean to where it doesn’t become confusing!

👍

Love it !

Great Job

Your staff of people are great and always professional

Unstable / freezes often

After a couple of seconds of scrolling, the app becomes totally unresponsive. iPhone 17 pro. Uninstalled, reinstalled and same issue resurfaces. I’ve had the same issue previously on my phone 13 pro. Might be time to fix that bug hey flickrites.

Favorite photography website, but needs improvement

Pet Peeves

Difficult to edit multiple image descriptions simultaneously
No global search and replace
No ‘mark all as read’ for notifications
What happened to the groups?

can’t change email

Best picture application. Beats SmugMug and all the others!

This site creates the most impressive view of photos. Plus they keep the original resolution so you can download and edit on any device. Keep up the great work!!

Awesome place to see and display

Lovely but needs a simpler way to post on groups

Great Place!

I love looking at all the unique photos that people exhibit. I really enjoy the ones of old buildings, cemeteries, and anything nostalgic! I especially enjoy the interaction with people around the world. Great platform!
