User reviews

Too buggy

Can’t transfer from another phone.
Can’t restore from Dropbox because it hangs
Tried reporting problem from inside app but it wouldn’t launch either...

Other than that, it’s a good app

Crashes when adding a photo from Library

I really love the idea of this app - it looks like some thought went into it. Unfortunately it looks like the developer may have stopped updating it as it will crash whenever you try to add a photo from your photo library. Hoping for a fix as the app looks great.

Response from developer

Hi! Very sorry about the bug. This problem has been fixed.

Don’t waste your money

After paying for this app I discovered a few big technical issues that are dealbreakers, the most critical being the inability to add a photo without the app crashing. The developer website no longer exists and they are no longer responsive on Twitter. Don’t give them your money!!!!

Response from developer

Hi! Very sorry about the bug. This problem has been fixed.

No panoramic support, limited camera

For location scouting, panoramic image support would be greatly appreciated.

As an animator it would be nice to also be able to access the iPhones other image functions especially the filters. As it stands the camera only takes basic pictures.

It would also be nice if the image player also supported the ability to view panoramic images in pov mode or through simulated viewfinder.

I love this app

Offline location logging with notes and photos. I use this for restaurants and cool bars as I travel. This app does it perfect and is a great app with solid developer feedback!
