## What is Stockimo?

The free app that turns your iPhone photos into cash

Use Stockimo to upload your photos and we’ll sell them on Alamy, the world’s largest website for picture buyers, where images sell from $1 to $20,000. Stockimo is the first choice app for creative people who take photos using their mobile phones, want to make money and showcase their work to a global audience.

Alamy already knows how to sell pictures, paying out $140M to photographers since it began, so you’ll be joining an established global marketplace where photos sell.

Shoot what you love and be as creative and adventurous as you like. Submit interesting places and people and of-the-moment photography that documents the world. What you take is up to you!

Uploading is so quick you can turn a spare moment into spare cash.

How it works:

Upload your smartphone photos
Describe each image with a caption and tag key features and concepts to be used as ‘keywords’ to help customers find your photos 
Submit and get your photos rated
Photos are rated out of 4, if you get an average score above 2 the photo gets in
If your photos are accepted, they’ll go on sale at Alamy.com and its distribution network
The app will tell you when your photos sell
You’ll get paid your share every month if you’ve made over $10 
There’s an early bird offer where you’ll earn 40% commission on every sale, after that it’s 20%.

You keep the copyright, your photos stay on Alamy to sell again and again.

### 1/5 — App now closed

*2024-01-31*

Don’t bother downloading this app as it’s now discontinued or “sunsetting” as Alamy put it. Only download if you’re already a stockimo contributor to update the final version to manage your already submitted photos. They’ve probably run out of unpaid reviewers to check on uploaded photos or “mugs” as I call them.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2023-11-13*

This app consistently crashes and won’t stay open. It works for a few minutes, but then crashes and you can’t get back on it until you download it again and start over. A huge disappointment from a big company like Alamy ! I repeatedly emailed the company and they act like this is a new problem they’ve never heard of before and ask me what phone I’m using. It’s 2023 so I’m pretty sure my phone is ok to use with this app. They just don’t know how to fix the obvious problem that thousands of people are having with this app. I’m so very disappointed with the app and the customer service !

### 5/5 — This is genuinely great

*2023-07-22*

This app doesn’t deserve 1.9/5. It does everything I need it to do. However, the last update being 5 years ago worries me a bit. Don’t listen to the bad reviews, and try it. See if you like it! You deserve these 5 stars.

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing

*2023-06-16*

Can only load 1 photo then the app closes

### 1/5 — Keep crashing

*2023-06-12*

It used to be a great app, but now it keeps crashing. I can’t use it properly anymore.

### 4/5 — Good app but…

*2023-06-02*

Just now when I tried to upload a photo the app crashed! Also it doesn’t use the full screen of later iPhones. Can this app please be properly optimised for iOS 16.5 and the upcoming iOS 17? And also support the larger screens on iPhone 13 and 14 devices? Thank you.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2023-03-12*

Uploaded 1 photo to test out and decided to removed it and the app wont let me upload other images and I cant even delete the only 1 photo i selected. This app is a waste of time.

### 1/5 — Please fix bug—app won’t open on iPhone 14 pro max

*2023-01-28, version 1.5.2*

App stopped working as of latest iOS update. I have the 13 pro version. Waiting for a fix, please.

### 3/5 — Think of this as half a side hustle

*2022-11-23, version 1.5.2*

My account has been open for seven years and I have only sold two of the same photo in that time. they also didn’t tell you what’s the rating system is, so you have no idea what to look for.

### 1/5 — Going nowhere

*2022-10-23, version 1.5.2*

This App has very little functionality. No ‘Help’ options. Navigation is clunky. So minimalist it is actually hard to use.
