### 2/5 — Yikes 6.0 has broken the app

*2026-01-22*

App cannot handle larger font sizes and accessibility options.  It has broken access to my purchased glamor poses  snd does not give me an option to restore purchases…

### 2/5 — Nützlich, aber trotz kaufversion nicht alle Inhalte

*2019-06-10*

An sich mag ich diese App, da sie viele Hilfreiche Tipps gibt, wenn einem mal die Ideen ausgehen. Allerdings finde ich es schon fast frech, dass man eine App kauft und dann noch immer nicht alle Inhalte angesehen werden können. Die Kategorie „Glamour“ muss man noch einmal extra kaufen.... dann doch lieber eine Lite Version schaffen, in denen ein Eindruck vermittelt wird und dann eine vollständige Version zum Kauf anbieten. So fühle ich mich aber etwas verarscht...

### 4/5 — Needs work for iOS 11.4.1

*2018-07-11*

I’m on the iPhone X (currently July 2018) with iOS 11.4.1. The app works kinda show compared to when I used this with my iPhone 6. This bug issue should be easy to fix. 
Also, and chance we can get a category solely for boudoir?

### 5/5 — Great app.

*2017-10-03*

Please update.

### 5/5 — I like this a lot

*2017-01-11*

I like this app a lot. Some reviews of a previous version are saying it's expensive. Compared to similar books it's pretty cheap. Yes, all these drawings can be found on the internet, but not as browsable as the app, and the 'favourite' facility means you can select a set you want to use for a particular shoot and then work through them using your favourites list as a reference. You can sit and browse these with a model, and home in on the ones you want. Even with the in app purchase of the glamour poses it still comes in as a pretty inexpensive resource. I love the fact that these are drawings not example photos. That really helps with removing the expectation that a model needs to look similar to a model in the photo, and a drawing isn't tied to particular light settings. The drawings are generic and boil the pose down to it's essentials as a pose (not about models or lights). The style of the drawings - expressive and minimalist, but attractive and arty - is perfect. Someone really thought about this, and it really paid off.

### 5/5 — Sehr gut als Gedankenstütze

This app is very useful for photographers and model.
Thanks for this app.
It's very useful for me.
Pls put more pose if available.

### 5/5 — Excellent App

*2016-01-16*

Very effective well written easy to use app, love the tip section and ability for simple creation of a favourite list of those poses you particularly like. Well happy with the free software and extras.

### 5/5 — Great resource

*2016-01-10*

I think that line drawings are the best way to convey the essence of a pose. This app uses line drawings and has a broad palette of options. Great to have it to hand on my phone.

### 4/5 — Great App

*2015-11-09*

Simple illustrations that helps you focus on the positioning of the body.

### 5/5 — Great free posing app

*2015-11-03*

This app is perfect for those just starting out in either modeling or photography. It helps give you a starting point for how to pose along with tips and tricks for photography. I always go thru it before a shoot to remind me of the different poses I want to get in the shoot. It also had a feature to select your favorite poses for quicker reference.

### 1/5 — Исправте

*2026-01-22*

iPhone 16 меню не читаемо. Все подписи крупнее кнопок. Кошмар. Исправте.

### 1/5 — Не обновляйтесь

*2026-01-22*

Шрифты съехали «Гламур» не доступен для данного устройства. С магазином не связывается, восстановить покупки невозможно

### 1/5 — Impossible de récupérer l’achat précédent

*2025-11-29*

J’avais acheté sur l’apps la possibilité d’avoir accès à l’ensemble des croquis. Je télécharge de nouveau l’apps aujourd’hui et impossible de récupérer les croquis en plus. Je dois de nouveau payer.

### 1/5 — Not worth the price

*2019-11-08*

Has an ok collection of poses but for $5 I was expecting much more... Tips and Tricks is very basic... nothing I didn’t know already

### 1/5 — 不值

*2018-09-24*

30元，里面有些姿势照片给你看。我以为是拍照的时候会出来一个造型，跟着做动作的app

### 1/5 — Absolute rip off

*2018-04-01*

For an app that costs £5 it seems to have been abandoned. There aren’t that many poses and it hasn’t been optimised for iPhone X.

### 1/5 — Boring, Predictable, Sexist

*2016-01-08*

There is not a single pose here that you won't find in any portfolio of a person who thinks they are a photographer because they could afford a DSLR. Extra bonus points for the highly sexist nature of the women's posing.

### 1/5 — App is stuck on children

*2015-07-28, version 5.0*

It was working fine until it just showed children poses only. It needs to be corrected.

### 1/5 — Used to work

*2015-07-22, version 5.0*

Liked it but after last update only opens the children poses no matter which pose you click. Very frustrating!!!!!

### 1/5 — Problema no app

*2015-07-21*

Ultima atualização com problemas, ao clicar qualquer menu somente é aberto as poses de crianças.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-07-05*

I have used this app for many years and it has served me well. I never do a session without using it.

### 5/5 — 简洁构图，服务业余模特

*2021-02-07*

读大学那会儿使用的摄影学习软件，一晃快要九年时光。现在重新下载下来，便于教导初阶模特进行拍摄，姿势很多，完全够用。软件简洁，不像国产的各种广告，完美！唯独后续无更新，新版iPhone无法满屏运营，这是小小的遗憾。hope your team may fix the problem on latest iOS
