I do like the layout and the unlimited uploads for portfolio. Would give 5 stars if it didn’t crash every other time I opened it ### 3/5 — Credential Issues after App Update *2019-12-23, version 3.51* App works well most times. I have an issue after every update related toy credentials. I log into the website fine with those same credentials, but the app can't recognize the user name. SMH ### 3/5 — Lackluster *2019-08-03, version 3.36* Overall, the app is great. It puts you in contact with other creatives, allows casting, etc, but at a price. In order for you to contact anyone, post any castings, change browsing search; you have to have a subscription. At first I had no issue with this, but as I started to post castings and search for talent, the app became more and more glitchy. I can’t even invite anyone to a photo shoot I put on a calendar without the app crashing and completely shutting off. For someone that has paid a subscription, this can be very bothersome, as I did not know I was paying for mediocre services. Someone should fix these app crashes fast, or my incline to keep a subscription will dwindle. ### 3/5 — Lots of Spam *2019-03-11, version 3.36* I feel like this app has potential but the only messages I get are scams like “interested in paid photo shoot, kindly email Director at ......@aol.com” - hopefully it grows in the future. ### 1/5 — account issue *2019-01-21, version 3.36* My account isn’t being recognized and when i go to change my password it says my email isn’t in the system, but i have emails from the company in my inbox. ### 2/5 — Won’t load *2018-12-27, version 3.31* I can’t look up any casting it just goes to leg loading screen ### 1/5 — Not worth it. *2018-12-16, version 3.31* Not for the pros. Amateur only. You have to pay per month to use all the features. ### 2/5 — Premise Wrong *2018-12-09, version 3.31* The app is solid, but the premise is wrong. The end result: many photographers join with few models. Having no desire to photograph other photographers, we will eventually leave also. The solution: Give full license to models free of charge. With many models online, photographers will be happy to pay the monthly fee. ### 1/5 — BE AWARE OF STALKER and the app doesn’t even work properly *2018-12-05, version 3.31* Be aware of weird creeps on this app. The “photographer” is stalking me for a year on SNS. And this app doesn’t even work properly and I can’t even log in to my own account anymore. So frustrating. Also they deactivate your account for no reason without telling you why lol just avoid this negative energy. ### 1/5 — Approved account *2018-12-01, version 3.31* It’s not approving my account for some reason ### 1/5 — Old Version Better *2018-11-29, version 3.31* i dont like that you can only browse if your not a member. better when you could just view by area or zip code ### 1/5 — Sizing page *2018-11-21, version 3.31* After downloading, the app won’t let me leave the sizing page. There’s not confirm or update button and it opens right back up to it when I close the app. ### 1/5 — Registration broken *2018-10-11, version 3.23* Unfortunately, the registration within the app is broken, and will not allow registrations (complaining about invalid email addresses). I tried seeking help on the support link from the App Store, but no help is available. There is also no assistance offered within the app prior to registration. Too bad! It looked interesting. ### 1/5 — Why??? *2018-10-05, version 3.23* This app will not launch! I received an email saying I have a message on the site, but when I try to log in I get the spinning wheel all day. I reset my password, deleted and reinstalled the app, nothing. I even reset my device just in case. Serious glitch going on, so I’ve removed the app and have moved on with my life. I hope (for the developers sake) this glitch is fixed soon! ### 2/5 — app is from dark ages *2018-09-09, version 3.22* I like idea of connecting artists but the app is crap. its slow crashes and quite honestly screws up castings and profile features. Incredibly slow. All of the people I know that use it, have stopped because of this. too bad. good idea but not enough tech behind it. ### 3/5 — Too slow *2018-08-17, version 3.16* Useful app, but things like messages take way too long to load ### 2/5 — Last version before this firebase version was better *2018-08-10, version 3.07* The last version before the overhaul was slow at times, but was actually more functional. This latest version is extremely slow more times than not, which makes it feel like a waste of time if you're using this professionally. Overall it's a good idea but the implementation could be improved. Also they've made the app a lot less friendly for free users...for example if you just want to filter between photographers and models, that is now considered an "advanced" feature. I was a paid subscriber on the previous version, but this version needs some major changes before they can earn my money again. Is this built with react native? If not, maybe that could be worth considering to help with the iOS and android versions. One star for making the migration easy and another star for getting it working on iOS. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Feedback *2025-05-23, version 4.1.26* I email them to delete my account and close it out and delete my data but no response after resetting them the email too etc. ### 1/5 — Problems *2021-11-29, version 4.1.26* I am new to this app and after I subscribed it still doesn’t show any castings. I’m not sure if this is a glitch in the app or if that’s just the way it is but, I signed up with hope that it would show castings. ### 1/5 — Photo upload issues *2021-09-07, version 4.1.26* Just downloaded the app to find models in our area to work with my brand. Trying to delete photos that were uploaded by mistake but there is no delete button or option anywhere! Please help with this issue ASAP! Thank you! ### 1/5 — Worst app *2019-09-01, version 3.43* I was a subscriber for almost 3 years. What a waste of money. I can’t even see who’s on it now that I’m not a subscriber other then the promoted models that are paying 24 bucks a month. Stick to model M with a full functioning website. They also ran a fraudulent contest on social media that never awarded a prize or announced the winner. Don’t waste your money. Update: you claim you announced the winner to your contest on social media? Tell me what date you posted that and what platform! I scoured them all and no mention of any winner. ### 1/5 — Useless *2019-08-31, version 3.43* Can’t filter without paying. Utterly useless. Quality is intermittent. Within the first 10 minutes of using it after my profile was approved, it’s not loading any other content besides my own profile. ### 1/5 — Seems like a great app if you could move past certain screens *2019-07-16, version 3.36* I’d love to give this app an opportunity, however, I can’t get past the measurement screen. I can’t scroll down to confirm my DOB/Bust/Waist/Height Measurements and every time I close and reopen the app the screen remains the same. It’s extremely annoying and I’m highly disappointed that in the first 5 minutes I’m running in to a huge development issue/glitch. ### 1/5 — Idk any more *2019-03-26, version 3.36* Been trying to sing in for over an hour now. Reset my password 4 times and it's not letting me login ### 1/5 — What even is this app 😂 *2019-02-22, version 3.36* Created a profile, uploaded pictures, set my location….there’s literally no information on here. there are zero castings. I click on “Castings” and it’s a blank screen. It also resets your location based on where you are, rather than where you would prefer to model. For example, I live right outside of Boston, but I want to see castings directly in boston. But I can’t because it automatically sets me to my geolocation. Anyway, that doesn’t even matter because there are zero castings on here anyway. ### 1/5 — Issues *2019-02-10, version 3.36* This app has way too many glitches ### 1/5 — Will not allow me to sign back into my account *2019-01-27, version 3.34* I’ve been out of the App for like 3 weeks and now trying to sign back in it’s just loading..... that’s all it will do nothing else. I updated it but that did not help. It’s still loading lol..... And 2nd they emailed me saying my account is not approved and that I need pictures without snap chat filters Ect. I updated my account and email back that same day to please review it again so it can be activated and I never got an response back...... I do not recommend this app if you are trying to be taken seriously ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Nice app *2019-03-15, version 3.36* Its growing. It works well. Keep it up. ### 5/5 — Really helps connect to opportunities *2018-11-29, version 3.31* I’ve paid for apps or website to help match me with models or people needing photography, but this actually is efficient in making the connection easy for both parties, would highly recommend to those in search of building portfolios or looking for local talent. ### 5/5 — Photo Shoot *2018-11-22, version 3.31* Mostly good models as more people have joined. Better than any other app I’ve tried! ### 5/5 — Great response to using my name and images to contact models! *2018-07-11, version 3.09* They found the person pretending to be me and fixed the issue quickly! We all agree that protection of the models is most important! Great work! ### 5/5 — Easier to navigate *2018-06-30, version 3.08* Great update! ### 5/5 — Where has this been!!! Great app!! *2018-06-23, version 3.05* This app has made my collaboration and discovery of up and coming talent much easier. It’s intuitive and simple. So much so, that I don’t even tell me other photographer friends about it! My gain their loss!🤗 ### 5/5 — Loving this *2018-06-23, version 3.05* This app makes it so easy to network and the customer service is amazing. Thank you so much Pro Photo! ### 5/5 — Great app, but the update makes it crash *2018-06-21, version 3.03* I’m using the app on my iPad and for some reason, after I reset my password due to the update, it keeps crashing. None of my messages are coming up, my profile isn’t showing, and nothing will load. Overall it’s a fantastic app, this update has just created some issues. ### 5/5 — Performance issues *2018-05-15, version 2.28* I love this app but this app needs major performance overhauls. This apps takes way to long to load. Please make improvements to this app. This app has a lot of potential and would love to see this app perform very well. ### 5/5 — App down *2018-01-30, version 2.27* I opened the app from an alert and I was taken to a login screen. Every login I tried failed. I went to reset my password and the reset button gave me the same fail error that I got from the failed logins. I reopened the app and tried again. Same result. I deleted the app and this time it immediately opened to a green retry button and nothing else. Just a button that spins and resets when you tap it. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
