### 5/5 — Wow by the quality, price and service.

*2019-07-19, version 1.61*

I’ve searched around for this type of product and finally decided on Photo tiles by Phototile. First I was skeptical because they are one of the less expensive brands out there. But boy was I wrong. Conclusion, I love my tiles, they are crisp and clear. Shipping was fast. Pricing for the quality is amazing. Customer service was top notch. I’ve read through many reviews and I don’t understand how some people gave it 1 star. 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

### 5/5 — What a great app.

*2019-05-18, version 1.59*

I draw a lot and give away my art work.  Luckily, I always take pictures of everything I’ve drawn. Now I can have them made into tiles for my enjoyment.  Thanks so much.  Kate

### 5/5 — Love these!

*2019-05-12, version 1.58*

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2019-04-01, version 1.56*

It came beautifully wrapped, stuck right to my wall, and the pictures came out just as you edit them. For 28 bucks for 3, I’m in love with this app and how my room is starting to look!!

### 5/5 — Love them

*2019-03-20, version 1.55*

I bought 8 tiles I love them so easy to stick and came out BEAUTIFUL will definitely order again one thing is if they were a little cheaper like bulk deals because I have a lot of pictures I want to replace with tiles but it get costly but they are amazing

### 5/5 — Great company

*2019-03-09, version 1.54*

I never write reviews for apps but I felt like I needed to for this one.  I ordered about 11-12 tiles about a week ago.  2 of them were having trouble sticking and kept falling to the ground, ultimately damaging the tiles.  I wrote an email, got a response promptly, and was sent replacement tiles, AND an envelope with extra stickies.

Thanks guys.

**Developer response:** Hi Bignigs - 
Thank you so much for your honest feedback. We really appreciate customers like! We do everything within our ability to make our customers happy. Thank you so much for supporting us!

*2019-01-02, version 1.47*

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2019-07-29, version 1.62*

If I could rate it zero stars I would. Their customer service is a joke. They tried to cheat the system by using the same printing label on two boxes so I had to pay for the shipping. I had to fight them on that. The tiles came damaged and now half aren’t sticking to the wall. They take forever to respond to you if you can get a response and it never is anything to fix the issue. 
Their email is “we can’t control how usps” works when that isn’t the issue. The issue is they tried using the same shipping label for two packages so they didn’t have to pay it. They are a horrible company and don’t take the blame for anything. Find a new company that has better customer service because this company is a joke!

**Developer response:** Wishywashy123 -
I do apologize regarding your recent experience. Unfortunately, we cannot control how USPS works. I'm sure we have refunded you. Once again, sorry for the inconvenience.

### 1/5 — First review ever for anything! Horrible customer relations from the director.

*2019-07-16, version 1.61*

My first experience using Phototile was good. The quality was not as good as Mixtiles but I knew I could save a few bucks. This time, I was planning to send them to my mother who is not well. While I was ordering them, I was not given the option (at least I didn’t think I was) to put my mother’s address down. I asked before the item would have been shipped through email. After, they shipped them to me directly, the director tells me it is too late. I asked for money to reimbursed for having to shipped them out again or for them to find a way to correct the problem. I don’t know if it was a glitch in the system or not but I find it extremely unprofessional to write to me that I simply “forgot to change the address”. I have recommended several people personally to this app but now I am going to share my experience. Maybe I am old school but there is something to be said about the customer is always right or, at minimum, try not to antagonize them after something goes wrong.

**Developer response:** Thank you for used to supporting us. I do regret that this experience has made you not want to do business with us anymore. I do apologize that we are a humane company and we do not  want our employees to work on weekends. Therefore, your email that was sent on Saturday wasn't read until Monday when the automated machine already printed out your order and shipped out. Moreover, it states very clearly in our Terms of Use that we will not provide refund for a mistake the customer made. https://phototileapp.com/terms.htm
It states " Refunds! If you are not completely satisﬁed with your order due to a mistake we have  made  or  because  your  Tile(s)  have  arrived  damaged,  you  may request  a  refund  by  emailing  us  at service@phototileapp.com& and sending us a picture of the damaged Tile(s) and the boxes. Subject to applicable  law,  we  will  not  refund  any  amounts  if  your  dissatisfaction with the Tile(s) is due to a mistake on your part or simply because you have changed your mind. "

### 2/5 — Large order, cheating postage

*2020-05-15, version 1.84*

I ordered 54 tiles and got a tracking number last week for them. Received them today to find I got 24. Post office says that they tried using duplicate postage labels so they got sent back. As of now, no response from their customer service. I find it for plain out rude for someone to spend this kind of money and they try to cheat on the shipping. I will say that the 24 I did receive look great. I just want the rest of them.

**Developer response:** HI Jenb16 - 
First, I would like to apologize for this inconvenience. We are trying everything we could to get the rest of the 30 photo tiles to you ASAP. We haven't responded back to your email because we are waiting for the tiles to get to send back to us. Or we might just send you a new order. Once again, I am sincerely sorry regarding this issue.

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2020-04-07, version 1.84*

The first time I ordered from this app was awesome and I recommended it to so many of my friends... but this time I got cheap plastic tiles instead of the heavy duty foam ones I got the first time. I hate how they switched the product and didn’t tell you when you were ordering. The old foam tiles are way better quality and they look so much better than the plastic ones.

**Developer response:** Hi jaclynr14 -
I do apologize for this inconvenience. But we did send out emails, push notifications, and in-app window pop up, and posts on our IG and FB pages. It actually costs us more to make our 3rd generation Phototile® photo tiles. It's more environmentally friendly than styrofoam (since you cannot recycle styrofoam.) Please email us at service@phototileapp.com and we shall try to resolve this issue.

### 2/5 — DON’T waste your money using their service!

*2020-01-24, version 1.76*

A few weeks ago, I purchased 18 tiles from this company and was so excited! After removing from packaging I was still impressed until 2 days later when I decided to hang them up. Upon doing so, I noticed my pics were printed out and just slapped on top of the canvas and was bubbling from the edges. They hadn’t glued the edges well enough to ensure this from occurring. Very disappointed! I should have went with Mix Tiles as I had used them prior. BETTER quality for your dollar. I didn’t return the tiles because I’ve got them on my wall already and can’t just throw them away. Some reviews aren’t accurate and meant to deceive future customers. I hope that my review actually stays on their platform to help others make a clear decision. 🤷🏻‍♀️

**Developer response:** Hi, Clearly not - 
Thank you so much for taking the time to provide your insightful experience. I do apologize for your recent experience. This is unacceptable and I would like to make things right. Could you please email us at service@phototileapp.com, we will either reship or refund.

### 2/5 — Photos blurry and poor quality

*2018-08-12, version 1.27*

I ordered 17 prints from our trip to Canada and the photos were extremely dark and blurry. Photos were taken on a new iPhone and printed colors are dark and poor quality. Ordering was easy and shipping was fast but wouldn't use again.

### 3/5 — Grainy pics

*2018-12-14, version 1.44*

Like my title says, the pics are grainy- despite being professional grade. Looks ok from far away, but grainy and blurry once you get close. Disappointing as I wanted the little details to stand out.

With that said, the 3 tiles were $25, which isn't awful, but I wouldn’t order again after seeing the 3 I just received.

App worked easily and was very user friendly. Shipping was also quick, which was nice.

**Developer response:** Hi Inkedupmomma -
Thank you so much for your feedback. We are always improving our products/services, I will definitely let my manufacturer department know regarding this issue. Please email us at service@phototileapp.com and we will resolve this issue ASAP

### 3/5 — Easy use, quick delivery, cheap

*2018-08-18, version 1.30*

My tiles came in a box the exact size of the tiles with one piece/slice of bubble wrap the size of a single tile and a piece of paper the same size as a single tile, not enough to prevent any damage. Due to the cheap/delicateness of the foam board, one of the edges of a photo is slightly dented. Not enough to bother my husband but it’s there and we’re giving these as a gift so it bothers me.

I am disappointed with the quality of the tile. The image was great but the quality isn’t for me. If it didn’t actually look like a block of black foam. If something was done to cover the sides maybe I would feel different.

I gave 3 stars because the app was incredibly easy to use, the photos were here in less than a week (perfect for a last minute gift) and just because these aren’t for me isn’t to say they aren’t for everyone.

**Developer response:** Hi 6Tina - 
Thank you so much for your feedback. We are continuously improving our product and service. Most of the photo tiles app out there offer the same exact product. We are working on something to resolve your concern regarding the sides. Moreover, could you please send me an email at service@phototileapp.com I'll provide you with a refund for the dented tile. I do apologize regarding this inconvenience.

### 4/5 — Easy and awesome

*2018-12-29, version 1.47*

I ordered four tiles for the first time and I am not disappointed. I would have given it five stars if one of the tiles hadn’t come out blurry. However, the rest of the tiles are beautiful. I would definitely be ordering more. Hopefully I don’t get blurred ones like the one. The price is cheap and affordable. And not only is the shipping free, but the shipment came really fast, less than a week!

**Developer response:** Hi Beth - 
Thank you so much for supporting us! I do apologize regarding one of the photo tiles being blurry. Could you please email us at service@phototileapp.com? We will resolve this issue ASAP. We will refund you.

### 4/5 — Nice!

*2018-07-01, version 1.17*

Had recently purchase this one. I love the quality of the printed pictures and the ease of having it pasted or removed from the wall. The only downfall is that is made of a styrofoam. I was expecting a better material. Overall, it is nice and cute.

### 5/5 — Love Phototile!

*2020-03-13, version 1.81*

I had been eyeing the use of Phototile for a long time bc they are cheaper than their rivals and the quality looked good from afar.  I made my first order of just three tiles to try them out.  I liked it so much that I made my biggest order not long after that which included all the pets I’ve petsat for.   Highly recommend you give them a try!

**Developer response:** Hi Petsitter Extraordinaire -
You are awesome. So happy that you are satisfied with our product! Thank you so much for supporting us! :)

### 5/5 — Pictures from anywhere

*2020-02-14, version 1.77*

I looked into getting photo tile styled pictures from another app but wasn’t able to upload from Google or other locations (like Facebook). I was so excited I could upload my Google photos to here! I haven’t received my tiles yet but was very happy with the app, so I’m hopeful the quality will impress me, too!

**Developer response:** Hi sgerstenblith - 
Thank you so up for supporting us and your kind feedback! If you have any problems please contact us at service@phototileapp.com :)
