The Magpie free trial is honest and simple, and completely different to how others work. Other apps automatically subscribe you after your trial period is over, unless you actively cancel during your trial.

If you try Magpie and love it you can choose to purchase either a flexible monthly subscription or a lifetime purchase. If you choose not to purchase Magpie you'll still be able to view all your lists and items, but you won't be able to add any more. It’s entirely up to you. Simple.

It’s missing essential features such as sorting, tags, and dates, which makes it difficult to use for anything beyond basic archiving. I’d love to support and follow the app’s development, but in its current state it’s unlikely to ever become truly useful. At least drop the price to match the offering. ### 1/5 — Impossible d’annuler l’essai gratuit *2025-08-24* Ne me convient pas ### 1/5 — Want to love this app but where the heck is the developer? *2024-06-01, version 1.5* I really want to use this app. BUT — while happy to still take our money, Emile, the developer has not updated this app in 4 (four) years, and has not responded to my inquiries about a glitch I’ve run into it during the two week trial right now. I see where somebody else was wishing he would update it — a year ago. I don’t want to report Emile to Apple. I really want this app to be supported, and to be able to use it. I can tell it’s a fantastic app, and it’s exactly what I need. But it’s really worrisome when somebody seems to have just abandoned an app they created, you can’t get a response from them, and you don’t know if you’ll be able to get support if you really go for it with buying and using the app. ### 5/5 — A great app that deserves more love *2022-10-12, version 1.5* This is a great app for organizing your stuff, I just wish the developer would give it an update ### 5/5 — Perfect thing to clean up my photo feed *2022-06-19, version 1.5* Best app I’ve found to organize all the hundreds of screenshots I’ve taken so they don’t clutter up my photos feed! ### 5/5 — Great for Fountain Pen & Ink Records *2021-09-19, version 1.5* I have been looking for a way to keep track of all of my fountain pens and ink and this app has done the trick. Very easy to use. Definitely worth trying out the free trial if you are a collector. It took me less than a month to purchase a lifetime subscription. ### 5/5 — Great app *2021-05-15, version 1.5* I use this app as an alternative to Pinterest as it is more customisable, I got fed up with never being able to change the titles of things I saved on Pinterest - plus all the many ads they throw at you. I now have a beautifully organised and clear system for all the pictures I collect. 👍 ### 4/5 — Please add... *2021-04-23, version 1.5* Hello can you add option to create folder within folder Whitton folder support thanks. ### 5/5 — gif support please *2021-02-20* I like to collect gif pictures,can you please support this format? ### 5/5 — Fantastic App *2020-08-28, version 1.5* Finally found an app that it so easy to use and I can now keep everything in one place in folders that you also get to name so everything is easily identifiable, never have to search again to see where on earth you see that item you loved so much ## Frequently asked questions about Magpie ### What does Magpie do?

The result? No more crashing when trying to import more images than your phone can handle! I've also improved to experience with a realtime progress bar. Happy importing! • General fixes and improvements I've been doing some general housekeeping to fix some minor bugs and keep Magpie running smoothly for you. Magpie is run by just one person.
