### 3/5 — Disappointed

*2026-06-25, version 2.7.29*

Very disappointed with loosing all pics after the update. Concerned about future update issues.

### 5/5 — great app!

*2026-06-22, version 2.7.29*

love this app! (be sure to back your iphone up regularly)

### 1/5 — All photos gone

*2026-06-10, version 2.7.29*

8 years of pottery records and photos are now just gone!

### 1/5 — Don’t invest!

*2026-06-10, version 2.7.29*

All my notes in the app. One glitch in their part. ALL GONE!

### 1/5 — I just want my pictures back!!

*2026-06-06, version 2.7.29*

3 years, from my first pieces and so many lessons, gone.

### 1/5 — Lost Photos

*2026-06-06, version 2.7.29*

Did the update a few days ago and lost all the photos of my work from the last 3 years. How unprofessional for the developers to be unprepared for this “glitch “.

### 2/5 — Use at your own risk!

*2026-06-05, version 2.7.29*

It was great for 6 years until 3 days ago when it catastrophically deleted every single photo. I didn’t panic at first, as I “knew” they were iCloud backed up, meaning I could just offload the app and do a restore from the cloud. Nope. Turned out the app just literally DELETED every single last one of my images. Permanently and irreversibly. It retained my written notes, but without my images, those are useless.

### 1/5 — Lost all photos

*2026-06-04, version 2.7.29*

The developers made an update to this app a few days ago that caused all of the photos to be lost. Unbelievable that they did not create a back up or test it well enough for that to happen. Very, very poor quality control for an app I had come to rely on to track all my work. So disappointing. Lost hundred of pictures that were tied to my work.

### 1/5 — Do not use this app if you really want to save your work!

*2026-06-03, version 2.7.29*

I have been using pottery notes for a few years. Early on it mysteriously deleted all of my information. I continued to use it. Big mistake!! Today when I opened the app all of my photos of my pieces were gone. Others in my class experienced the same issue. We each contacted customer service & were told that ‘there was a glitch in the app & that the photos are unlikely to come back’. I had over 200 pieces on the app. I am devastated as are the other artists in my class. 
The app is obviously not secure or reliable. Do yourself a favor & don’t use it.

### 1/5 — Recent update

*2026-06-03, version 2.7.29*

I updated the app yesterday and all of my pictures are gone
