Best App Ever
It’s simple, elegant, and effective. It is also fostering an amazing community of photographers of all types and a source of inspiration. I’m more than happy to pay a subscription because it really deserves it.
Brilliant and much needed
I’m delighted with Foto and what the team is doing. Having a photo based app without video and all the social nonsense is just what we needed, and judging by other members usage and positivity, I think my views are common on the platform. Now they have done something marvellous and much desired in making an excellent desktop version which has been cleverly and well executed. You now have an option to create online portfolios, negating the need for a web portfolio, or even a website, and to me the design and layout are spot on. So is the pricing! The yearly cost for their upgrades are very very reasonable IMO. Bravo Foto team. They also communicate extremely well, their ideas are fresh and very well executed, and they listen to their members and fix issues rapidly. In the oversaturated photography space this is a refreshing experience and much needed. I really hope that more artists and serious image creators learn about this platform and start using it. It’s like a hybrid of a simple social network without all the nonsense combined with a portfolio app, and one that I would not hesitate to show serious work on. The members show very varied work and standards are high and passion shows. I will be upgrading soon so I have a portfolio I can show easily without the nonsense we find on Instagram et al. Congratulations to the Foto team. Keep it going, it’s gonna be a great success story I believe. I’m in now way connected to the company, this is a genuine review.

New Photo Sharing App worth the Hype
I’ve been using the Foto App since the beginning and it’s excellent. Out of the all the new photo sharing / instagram alternative apps, Foto is the best. It’s worth the hype.
Schade
So gute Ansätze, insbesondere das Teilen mit "Nicht-Foto" Nutzern. Leider funktioniert davon bei mir gar nichts, man benötigt ein Konto zum Anzeigen von Portfolios, die Browserversion zeigt nur einen weißen Bildschirm, die iPad Version ebenso.
Antwort vom Support: keine.
So wird das nichts mit dem Abo.

I love it!
I’ve only been using Foto for a few days but I love it.
It’s a platform for sharing photos and viewing other peoples without all the bells and whistles of other apps.
It feels like a pre Facebook/meta instagram (when instagram was actually good) and that is a good thing
I don’t need a pro account because the free option is great but I’m going to subscribe to pro to support the app.
If the devs read this, please don’t change. You’ve got this spot on

Refresh
Whenever I want to see new pictures it doesn’t refresh, it’s really annoying please fix it if you can.
Génial
Excellente alternative à Instagram dédié spécifiquement pour la photo et excellente philosophie.
Analog Forever!
It’s a great platform for building and sharing your analog photography portfolio. Not crazy about the strictly chronological timeline, but it’s great for organizing my images in a way that can be shared with intentionality.
Photo
While it is better than Instagram by not showing ads or pushing things onto you. It sits with me wrong way how nudity is allowed. I checked the tag and some are not so much fine art. Their stance is female nudity is allowed but male isn’t. I would prefer Nudity not allowed but I guess it’s hard to find that standard

The best by far for photography
If you enjoy photography, both taking and viewing, this a great app.
I came to this App after the slide into oblivion of other supposed photography platforms.
Photographs remain as good as you upload; no hideous compression or algorithms to ruin your work and there is no restriction on dimensions and ratios, unlike some others.
The preset tags with a limit of 3 per image keep things nice a clear and are a great deterrent for the social media wh*res out there.
The ethics of the company are excellent - I was spammed by someone asking for my WhatsApp number, and when it was reported I received an email back saying they did not like that sort of thing and the spammers comments were deleted and account was closed. Good stuff.

0.10.62 BUG
New update release won't download. Deleted app and tried to reinstall, now I can't download the app.
Loving the app
Finally a decent photography app. And thanks a lot for an iPad version! Good luck!
Very good and constantly getting better
A true photo-sharing app, with no algorithms or ads. Not a popularity contest, just pure photography sharing and consuming. I like the user interface. There’s active development and regular updates, getting better and better.
iPad buggy love it on phone
I keep coming back
Don’t change.
I love you guys are trying to do something different and go back to ‘the good old days’ of photo sharing, so yeah. Stick to it. Don’t become just another insta
Great Start!
A photo sharing platform through and through. Beautifully presented, multi-platform, no algorithm, just photographers sharing their work. Great work from such a small team behind this app, support where you can!
Great for Photographers
No ads. No DMs. No algorithm. No reels. No carousels. Just single photos by photographers. It’s such a great place to share photos and support other people’s work.
Foto Inc Is Outstanding
I’ve been using the Foto app for a bit now, and overall it’s been a really solid experience. The interface is clean and easy to navigate, which makes editing and organizing photos feel quick and effortless. I especially like how intuitive the tools are—you don’t have to be a pro to get great-looking results.
The editing features are strong without feeling overwhelming. There’s a good balance between simplicity and control, so you can make quick adjustments or spend more time fine-tuning details. Performance has also been smooth for me, with no major glitches or slowdowns.
There’s still a little room for improvement, like adding more advanced filters or customization options, but the app already does a great job for everyday use. Overall, it’s a reliable and enjoyable photo app that I’d definitely recommend

Very pleasant user experience
A photo-sharing app with a user interface that doesn’t cause psychic damage? Unexpected! Very pleasant to use, incredibly simple and photo-oriented. Not as popular as Flickr or whatever but it is not at all difficult to find high-quality work.
