Your app is garbage ### 4/5 — Finally I don’t like talking into my phone unless I’m driving *2019-07-01, version 2.6* Typing takes too long Speech to text is maddening Voice memos need transcribing I can now write things on a notepad. And later take pictures and throw out the notepad. ( now I can start using those dozens of blank note pads I have ). Now I don’t have to stop listening to music. Isn’t this the point? I’m holding onto the last star. Cause I just got the app ### 3/5 — Very first photominder failed. *2019-06-20, version 2.6* UPDATE: I really want this app to work but the flaws continue. Notifications still do not work on my iPhone XR and it is impossible to set an end date for reminders. I notification # will appear on the icon but that forces you to find the icon. I want lock screen and home page reminders. PREVIOUS REVIEW: I have notifications on for the app and my first/trial photominder failed—no notification. I should have paid attention to the one star reviews. I’m on iPhone XR with latest iOS update installed. I truly wonder if the 5 star reviews are phony. Adios $2.99 plus tax. Why doesn’t Apple’s reminder app allow photos?! ### 2/5 — Doesn’t work *2018-01-27, version 2.6* Downloaded the app but it doesn’t work. I have set two reminders so far, adjust time and frequency... just about every variable but still.... no bueno. ### 2/5 — Not impressed *2017-02-21, version 2.6* I use reminders all the time, so I was very excited about this app! However, I was not impressed at all. Unless I am missing something, which is possible, I saw no way to change the alarm sound or volume. The alarm itself is a single, short sound that I totally missed! It was once and done and, unless I looked for it, I never would have noticed it again. Very pointless for a reminder, if it's so easily missed! This app is a waste of money for me. ### 5/5 — Just what I needed! *2016-11-13, version 2.6* This solved a major annoyance for me. My camera roll was full of pics I had taken to remember things, except I never actually remembered to look! So now I have a place to store those images and actually remember what I need to! ### 4/5 — is nice *2016-11-05, version 2.5.1* i love it ### 5/5 — Great for visual people *2016-09-24, version 2.5.1* I love that I can glance at a vibrant picture instead of black and white text. Adds a little color into mundane tasks. ### 5/5 — Can't do without this! *2016-09-21, version 2.5* Photomind literally is my mind. Whether it's for medication reminders, bill paying reminders or reminders for daily activities, I couldn't stay organized or in my right mind without this app. Highly recommend!! ### 3/5 — Bien *2016-09-01, version 2.4.1* L'application est bien mais il y a effectivement des lacunes. Comme faire une récurrence seulement pour les jours de semaine ou de fin de semaine comme il y a dans l'application rappel du Iphone. Aussi de mettre une pastille a glisser lorsque c'est une journée de congé et que l'on ne veut pas avoir certain rappel de la journée... ### 3/5 — Très limité *2016-03-04, version 2.4.1* J adore l idée de mettre une photo, mais les possibilités sont limités, exemple on ne peut pas diviser en fichier ou en tache. De plus,le prix de 4$ est exagéré pour les possibilités offertes par l app ### 3/5 — Cool idea *2016-01-18, version 2.4.1* It's a great idea but I wish the notification would pop up on my phone like it would on the Apple Watch. Kinda miss the point when you have to open the app to see your reminder you made. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Does not deliver as advertised! *2019-12-19, version 2.6* I spent money and purchased this app so that a photo instead of text shows up as a reminder, and this app claims to do that. But guess what - it doesn't work. It does what your built-in iPhone reminder app can accomplish. The photos I have set up as reminders won't show up on my lock screen, instead I get a ridiculous text reminder. This app is such a scam and a waste of money. Please do yourself a favor and try something different. ### 1/5 — SCAM. Doesn’t work. At all. *2019-12-16, version 2.6* This app does not work at all. I’ve changed the time and date several times and it’s never worked once. . As of December 15, 2019 I just realized that this app was last updated three years ago?! Wish I noticed that before I Purchased the app. . I feel totally scammed. ### 1/5 — Repeat problems *2019-02-16, version 2.6* This app doesnt repeat daily reminders even when you select daily repeat ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2018-12-01, version 2.6* It doesn’t pop up large pictures on the screen and doesn’t alarm. It just notify you about the reminder you made. Waste of money. Dont purchase this. It doesn't even deserves 1 star for the money i paid for. ### 1/5 — Stopped working *2017-11-25, version 2.6* My reminders have completely stopped working. What’s the solution? ### 1/5 — Would Be Great (if it worked) *2017-08-18, version 2.6* I like that you can set reminders with a photo. I DON'T like there's actually no alarm or photo to remind you of anything. When I go back to make sure I set it, sure enough it's there. It just doesn't work. Waste of $2.99 ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2016-09-09, version 2.4.1* Unfortunately just not what I hoped it would be. ### 1/5 — M *2016-01-03, version 2.4.1* Very disappointed!!! I downloaded this after reading a review in the paper. It does not work at all!!! A total waste of money! I hope the makers can fix it or offer to refund! They should not be allowed to sell something that does not work! ### 1/5 — very poor app *2016-01-01, version 2.4.1* Don't waste your money!!!! ### 1/5 — Increase the reminder options *2015-09-13, version 2.4.1* This app would be great if developer added better reminder functionality. Many programs do - 2nd Monday of every month, etc ... ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Useful *2019-06-10, version 2.6* I wish there was a vibrate notification option. ### 5/5 — Best one of the 3 I tested *2018-12-02, version 2.6* I tested several reminders with photos and in my opinion Photo Mind is the best one. It is simple to set up and very easy to see all the reminders organized. Thank you! ### 5/5 — Best app for recalling information. *2018-05-27, version 2.6* Love the app and the idea. Would it be possible to somehow enable us to zoom the contents in the image ? I know that must be too much to ask after all coolness the app is offering, but since I use a iPhone SE, it’s challenging sometimes to view the content details. You made the best app available for the App Store. Thank you so much PhotoMind. ### 5/5 — Best photo reminder app *2017-01-27, version 2.6* Fast and easy to use. I use it everyday for work, helps me address issues with employees that work different shifts or days that I may not see for 2-3 days. Only recommendation is for google calendar intergration ### 5/5 — No More Lost Tools! *2016-12-07, version 2.6* I use this app for all sorts of things but one of my favorites is to track my stuff. I loan things out to friends and family often, but I forget who has what or even that they borrowed it. Now I snap a picture of whatever I am going to loan and enter "Borrowed by John Doe". If there is a promised return date I add that to the reminder. If that date passes, I get a push notification. I then share the reminder via email right from the app as a gentle nudge to the person I loaned to. Now when I can't find my favorite wrench I go scan PhotoMind to see if I loaned it out. ### 5/5 — 📸💭 *2016-12-07, version 2.6* Great app! ### 5/5 — Love it! *2016-11-19, version 2.6* Great app! ### 5/5 — Awesome for notifications *2016-11-16, version 2.6* Handy app that helps remind me using pics that pop up just in time. I like that it is quick and easy to use. ### 5/5 — Best app for home task reminders *2016-11-15, version 2.6* Snapping a photo is better than typing. Dates are great, but the photo adds the details for home repair and maintenance reminders that I used to have to scramble for every time. The recurring alert feature is nice for changing air filters, oil in the mower, checking tires, flipping ceiling fan directions, winterizing, when to fertilize. ### 5/5 — Reoccurring reminders at their best! *2016-11-14, version 2.6* The killer feature of this app is the new Apple Watch companion app. Being able to actually see the photo of my reminder is really awesome! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
