If you really think $49.99 for this is justifiable…

You gotta be kidding me…

Brilliant photo organizer

The Utiful app is excellent for organizing photos into folders (and sub-folders), easily managed and identified with emojis. I have 4k photos in 86 folders, but with a wide range of interests I have a legacy of some 15k photos still to sort collected since first iPad in 2011. I understand from the friendly, helpful support team that welcome improvements including a search facility and preview to help identify photos in a folder are in the pipeline. Warmly recommended!

Awful

No ads. Makes you pay a fee to download. Something else. Wouldn’t recommend or whatever.

Only allowed to PARTIALLY LOVE it.

This app could be 10 Stars….. if you made an MacOS version.

It does not good to move photos into Utiful to organize and keep out of main galllery on phone and iPad if they disappear off iMac without Utiful to access them.

I’ve been paying for this app since it came out in the hopes that you guys would put them all together. Even though I’ve paid for it, I’ve rarely used it for the reason above. I guess I just won’t renew it.
