Needs upgrades and fixes! ### 4/5 — BEST image search match app of all tested *2015-07-20, version 1.4.3* Evaluating similar apps clearly showed PicFind was FAR superior. =^) However, once a graphic image or photo is found the built-in quick download and save function sometimes fails. Just tap the other top icon to open in (Safari = compass icon) browser - then use the (tap-and-hold) photo save feature! =HIGHLY:RECOMMENDED= ...tested on iPad mini & iPhone w/ iOS 8.3 ### 3/5 — Ok *2014-10-12, version 1.4.1* Works well but needs an update. When you try to do a new search it's just a black screen and you either have to re-install it or re-start your phone. Please fix this. ### 1/5 — Wish I hadn't update! *2014-05-02, version 1.4* I very rarely write reviews unless it's absolutely needed. I highly regret updating this app! Before the newest update it worked fantastically. Now it's just taking up space on my phone. It does not load results at all!!! Please fix this with a new update. Buyer beware, do NOT waste your money on this when it doesn't do what it's suppose to unless they choose to update this again. What a disappointment. ### 1/5 — It worked just fine till this most recent update now it crashes every time!!! FIX IT ALREADY! *2014-04-29, version 1.4* FIX IT ALREADY!!! ### 1/5 — One star is too generous *2014-03-23, version 1.4* I used to LOVE this app but it is HORRIBLE now since the update! It crashes as soon as it finds a match and I click to see the results. Poof! No results! DO NOT BUY THIS APP UNTIL THE UPDATE IS AT LEAST AFTER MARCH 22, 2014!!!! ### 1/5 — I want my money back *2014-03-16, version 1.4* Crashes all the time on my iPhone 4S running iOS 6. I can search for an image but when in try to view the results, crash. Waste of 2 bucks. ### 1/5 — Crashes!!!! *2014-03-12, version 1.4* I love this app. But since I updated I can't even view results without it crashing. Please fix this! ### 1/5 — Frustrating *2014-03-06, version 1.4* Just bought the app and the second I click on results it crashes. Please fix or give money back ### 3/5 — Ugh *2014-02-27, version 1.4* Before I updated the app it worked fine, but now since I updated it I crashes all the time almost immediately. Please fix this I love this app ### 1/5 — The old version worked fine! *2014-02-23, version 1.4* New version crashes upon searching any image. ### 1/5 — Still no save *2014-02-19, version 1.4* We have been waiting a good long while for the ability to save image results to camera roll (opening in Safari is so pre-iOS7). I will amend my rating only after this feature has been added. ### 1/5 — Crash *2014-01-19, version 1.3.2* The app crashes when it searches the web don't wast your money . ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work anymore *2022-12-14, version 1.4.7* Broken, hadn’t been updated in a long time. Find a different app or use Google Lens. ### 1/5 — Stopped Working *2022-11-30, version 1.4.7* This app used to be amazing but within the last couple weeks it just started not working and the google image search isn’t working or showing any results for some reason. Hopefully the developer can release an update to fix this. ### 1/5 — Don’t work no more *2020-09-26, version 1.4.6* I paid money for this and it was the best one out there. Know it don’t work. It say it found the search and u hit the spot to find it and there’s nothing anymore. It’s won’t show u the search. I’m so disappointed in this app when I used to love it. I don’t understand you make changes and your changes don’t work. ### 1/5 — Hit or Miss *2015-12-02, version 1.4.3* Your own Google-fu and reddits's r/whatisthisthing is more useful. The app does certain things well: if there's text or if the image is a location or reused it finds it very quickly and accurately. It also only goes to the search results page so you have to click through if you want to actually read about it/order it/ etc. Anything else (identifying cables, faces, misc. household items) goes to a generic image search and more often matches the background patterns than item I am trying to identify. Google is the only search engine which comes up consistently. Of the 5, one only tells you the colors in the photo, one consistently doesn't connect, two are ify on finding a similar image, and one seems to post your own photo to itself so that it can show you various images (I got random sketches the first time and erotic fan art the second, before I deactivated that engine. Not what I wanted to see at all). There is also no way to edit photos in app. You can take a picture, use a previously taken or saved picture, or even draw the item. So far I have only gotten typographic symbols when I did a drawing search, which is interesting but have nothing to do with what I was trying to find. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2015-04-02, version 1.4.3* I decided to do 3 simple test, I took a picture of a known novel and it failed to find it, 2nd I took a photo off of google images and it still failed to find it, and finally I took a picture of a movie and it failed to find that. The worst app in the world, not worth $2.99. ### 1/5 — Useless *2014-10-21, version 1.4.2* This was my go-to app for reverse image searches, however, the last update has made it completely unusable. The search function still works, as I can re-search items in my history, but without access to Photos or Camera, what good is it? ### 1/5 — PicFind *2014-10-17, version 1.4.2* Stopped working after last update and cannot find any support for this app. ### 1/5 — No longer works with IOS8 *2014-10-14, version 1.4.2* No longer can locate a photo from albums in Ipad 4. And after your newest update on October 13, now not working on IPad Mini either!! Please fix!!! ### 1/5 — My experience was this app fails. *2014-08-18, version 1.4.1* I read the description and thought this app would do what I wanted - and, according to the function, it should, but I never found any pic it "found" to be anything related to the images I used. Maybe it's the fault of the websites, but this should not be an app that is advertised as working. If I were you, I would avoid. ### 1/5 — Doesn't seem to find any images *2014-06-30, version 1.4.1* This app doesn't seem to ever find any images even remotely similar to the images I want to search. Even taking a photo of the Pepsi logo finds nothing similar. That makes no sense. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good *2016-08-13, version 1.4.6* Need some optimization and new options, but work very well ### 5/5 — Perfect tool for mobile reverse image search *2015-07-06, version 1.4.3* I have an iPhone 5 with current software. I purchased this app to determine the origin of a reposted image I saw on Facebook that had been used as a meme. I took a screenshot, cropped it using the picture editing function, and was able to use this app to find the original image on an international site through Google. (Sure enough, it wasn't what the person who posted it thought it was.;)) This app allowed me to open the search results in Safari so I could navigate and bookmark the way I am used to and keep results with my other Safari saves. I also used the app and the same method to determine the artist of an uncredited image that someone else posted. Perfect for me, and well worth the $1.99! ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2014-12-11, version 1.4.3* This app is awesome, anyone who says it isn't is not searching the right images ### 5/5 — By far the best app for picture searching *2014-11-05, version 1.4.3* No other program can stand in comparison to this one. I panicked when this app was deleted off my phone and I tried the other ones until I remember the name of this. Completely worth the money, the others are free so you really get what you pay for. ### 5/5 — Very Happy with this App *2014-09-08, version 1.4.1* It works and works very well. I am very glad I have it so now I can reverse image search on my IPad. Yay! Thank you for solving this iOS problem. ### 5/5 — Best Reverse Image Search *2014-06-14, version 1.4.1* I've needed a way to do reverse Google image search on iOS and this works perfectly. Thanks, really handy. ### 5/5 — Works great. Quick and simple *2014-05-22, version 1.4.1* Took a picture of a print in a hotel room. It identified it in about 2 seconds. ### 5/5 — Great App! *2013-10-26, version 1.3.2* I love that the app has; Google Reverse Search Mechanism, Tineye, and other great search resources Great app but a little expensive ### 5/5 — Amazing *2013-07-05, version 1.3.2* Have been looking for an app like this. Love how it searches multiple engines and I love the Karma Decay feature :) ### 5/5 — Underrated! *2013-05-09, version 1.3.1* This app is an app that does its purpose! It cross checks pictures through multiple sources to see if they are traceable to the net! This app is way underrated and more people should know about it! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
