### 3/5 — Photo folder hd

*2024-07-04, version 3.2.17*

Photo folder HD 
It keeps freezing on me getting frustrated with it. The pictures are too small.

### 3/5 — Update when?

*2023-11-10*

When is the update for ios 17 coming? Cause i don't know if I'm the only one but my folders have disappeared.

### 2/5 — Some features don’t work

*2021-02-11, version 3.2.15*

The app crashes every time I try to delete a folder or move photos from one folder to another

### 4/5 — Screen size

*2019-11-09, version 3.2.12*

This app used to fill the screen of my 12.9” iPad Pro (2nd gen), but with the most recent update, it now only fills the upper left hand portion of the screen - about 60%, but when I went to wright this comment from within the app, it filled the whole screen.  How do I get the photos to fill the screen again?

### 1/5 — New update problems

*2015-04-01, version 3.2.4*

Menus not working since the latest update and various crashes and bugs.

### 1/5 — What happen?

*2015-01-10, version 3.2.2*

Until the update I used this app all the time because I could easily make folders and rename pictures. Since the update I can't rename my photos and the app CONTINUALLY crashes.  Please fix and I'll give you 5 stars again.

### 1/5 — Crashes all the time

*2014-12-29, version 3.2.2*

Every since the latest IOS 8 upgrades, the app is completely useless, opens with half a screen, doesn't rotate and crashes when you press a button. Please fix asap.

### 1/5 — I phone

*2014-12-29, version 3.2.2*

I echo the reviews of others, recent update has made an otherwise good app unusable

### 2/5 — Broken update

*2014-12-15, version 3.2.2*

This used to be a fantastic app, but ever since updating to the latest version it's completely broken. As it stands now it doesn't even deserve1 star, but because I know it can be good and in fairness to the developer I'll give it 2. My advice, wait until it's fixed.

### 1/5 — Last update

*2014-12-13, version 3.2.2*

The last update is too bad, anything landscape is corrupt!
I send feedback but with no response from support 

The app is very good and usefull but the updates and support is bad

### 1/5 — Password crash

*2014-12-11, version 3.2.2*

Can't set password lock just keeps crashing

### 1/5 — Horrible back up support

*2014-03-03, version 3.1*

Be aware that iCloud will not guarantee the restoration of any content stored in third party apps. Fair enough. When I upgraded my phone everything came over seamlessly except the content from this app. 

I tried their standard restore procedures and nothing. And trying to contact them was absolutely useless. No response after multiple attempts. There are much better apps that will guarantee your photo integrity. Stay away from this one!!!

### 4/5 — Ab

*2013-05-24, version 3.1*

Good

### 4/5 — Excellent App with Even More Potential

*2013-03-02*

I have used this app for a few years now and it has served my purposes very well.  The categorization, import/export and security features have worked flawlessly on my iPhone, iPad and now on my iPad Mini.  I would and often do highly recommend this app to friends, family and co-workers where we are implementing an iOs program 

I have sent a personal suggestion to the developer for the icon display of photos surrounded by a white frame with filename be made an option to display the frame or hide it. Often I am looking for duplicates and it is very hard to tell which are duplicates because I cannot see enough of the picture to confirm the fact.

My second suggestion was to add the ability to crop a picture within this app rather than having to use a separate app to accomplish this function. I hope to see these features added in the near future which would then improve my rating to 5-stars and inspire me to rave about the product even more.

Review from 12 Jun 2023
Please fix it asap, I am using this app for my business. Thank you One month later…. No answer, no fix. I paid for this app and I have spent years creating albums and saving all my work and I can’t access it anymore which affects my business causing me a lot of financial lost. Please can you fix it already?

### 1/5 — No go for iPad mini

*2020-08-03, version 3.2.15*

Just stopped working for iPad mini, maybe time for some bug fixes. Looks like the last update to this app was 8mo ago.

### 1/5 — Crashes all the time

*2020-06-17, version 3.2.15*

App crashes/closes every time i try to delete a folder. Don't waste your money on this app.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work

*2020-02-11, version 3.2.15*

I use an iPad Pro. Make a folder, had pictures, try to run a slide show and the app closes.

### 1/5 — Problems since update.

*2019-11-17, version 3.2.15*

Since recent update. The top bar with the Back and Globe doesn’t respond. Half the photo file screen is missing and moved over to the right hand side. This is now not usable on iPad. Great app initially but now poor. Don’t know how to fix or contact someone for help. Is there an email address. 
Will have to find new photo organiser app. Shame

### 1/5 — Not keeping up with IOS changes

*2016-12-26, version 3.2.4*

Began as a nice app but seems to lack support. Functions horribly in recent months

### 5/5 — Use to LOVE this

*2019-11-26, version 3.2.15*

I’m only giving this five stars right now because it was awesome before! Now when I try to add a photo to a album it just shuts down. I have the updates already and I’m so missing this!

### 5/5 — Was Awesome But Update 3.2.2 Is Broken

*2014-12-16, version 3.2.2*

Loved this app until update 3.2.2. Now nothing in it works properly. I'll still give 5 stars assuming it will be fixed shortly. SHORTLY so I can get back to using it daily. 

Very disappointing that Echoboom didn't reply to my email.

### 5/5 — Super

*2013-09-03, version 3.1*

I've used this for some time. Crashed only once but my iPad had a software corruption, not fault of this app. . Resetting cured this. 

Now, let's improve on perfection.

Looping videos!  Yeah, would LOVE this ability. 

WiFi transfer to and from PC. No cake is complete without the icing!

### 5/5 — Finally!

*2013-07-02, version 3.1*

Finally I found the perfect app to keep my ever growing photo library in order. Easy to use, nice to look at, and convenient. Love this app!

### 5/5 — Love this app! Keep up the great work!

*2013-04-21*

Love the ability to make folders and put them inside of other folders. It makes organization so much easier!

I've seen improvements since I downloaded this app about a year ago, and the developers seem very responsive and conscientious about addressing user requests and issues.

Great job!

### 5/5 — Great

*2013-03-02, version 3.1*

I love it

### 5/5 — Perfect for what I want!

*2012-07-24, version 3.0.5*

After trying out numerous photo organiser apps I finally found this one which does everything I want it to do! Initially there were a few issues with aspect ratios, however after messaging support, they fixed it instantly. It is by far my favorite photo sort app out there.

### 5/5 — Apps

*2012-07-20, version 3.0.5*

Good!!!!!

### 5/5 — Quality

*2012-07-17, version 3.0.5*

Ace app ;-) keeps your pictures safe and your private ones private. One of the main reasons for having an iPad ;-)

### 5/5 — Like it so far

*2012-07-12, version 3.0.5*

Great app.  Has organized all my videos easily.
