buffer needs a fix
the app is good and all but it has a little limit with how many images i can add in one board and it keeps crashing and wont let me open any board until one chance it will open and i need to delete some images to stop it from cashing again for some number of days
Pretty terrible and it’s paid
It changes the color and value, the greyscale exaggerates the values and this has affected my art. It’s also extremely laggy when you have a ton of references and I had to constantly shut it down. Please make improvements to this app, especially since it is paid
Exactly What I needed
I never really liked the built in reference features many painting apps have as they only let you view one image at a time and i find that switching images interrups my workflow or they cover too much of the canvas to comfortably draw. I also dislike multitasking with pinterest, i often find it far too overwhelming and distracting. But with this app, being able to create a whole array of images, resize and zoom in very close is superrrr helpful!! I can keep close to my vision without getting distracted. It seriously helped me out with my artwork so much best purchase for my art ever

Best app for referencing images on iPad
I love my iPad and I love visref, it’s so smooth and I’ve been able to use it with 0 poor le,s since I first dl 5 years ago. Shoutout to Beezul the GOAT.
No Update
I guess instead of updating the apps, devs would rather make a new subscription app. Just give us all a refund.
App worked great prior to iOS26. Now? Not so much
Since the update to iOS26, the app frequently crashes when loading in larger boards. While they still, eventually, open, it often requires minutes of going through crashes just to get them to open. I had to downsize boards by nearly 60% of their previous size under iOS18, and even then, some midsized boards will crash once or twice before opening again. While this doesn’t happen as much if the HD setting is toggled off, some images only load when the setting is toggled on, making functionality iffy, at best. The app desperately needs a patch, and possibly a request to Apple to allow it to bypass the increased RAM throttling. When boards do finally open, the app works grand.
Additionally, despite reaching out to VizRef about the issues, they have yet to respond.

Amazing I’ve used this for years as a tattoo artist
As the title says I got this in 2020 and it’s been 6 years and I can say that it does EVERYTHING I’ve ever needed as a tattoo artist who makes collages of references. The drag and drop is seamless and just works. Deserves more praise 🥹
Useful app, but would love extra features
I haven’t had the app for long, but it is useful for creating mood boards. I can see myself using this app a lot. I would love to see the ability to write, doodle and add text, as annotating would be super helpful; especially if there is a specific part of an image to be highlighted, when I idea pops up, or liking a part of a reference image.

Pretty Good, but needs some work.
Been using this app for several years alongside Procreate, and it's absolutely amazing!
The very few problems I've had with Vizref are minimal, but if they ever get fixed, it will make this app a 5-star
The problems that I had were:
1. App crashes when opening a brand new board (sometimes).
2. On some boards, the export screen gets stuck and shows no export options.
3. On some boards, whenever I select a single image, the app crashes
4. There are some boards I cannot reorder for some reason.
Most of the boards I have are perfectly normal. The problem is that it’s not CONSISTENT and causes minor inconveniences.

Fix the exporting image bug
All I ask is to fix the exporting png or board bug. It’s annoying when I see it not working out of absolutely nowhere.
Also, now when I select multiple images it crashes the app. Please fix this, as it’s getting annoying.

Love it but there is an issue
I wish you can turn the images or canvas all together cause i’m the type to draw whilst turning the reference image
Good enough but lacks some features
I’ve been using this for a while now, I like the simplicity of it, multiple boards you can make and adjust BUT, I’d love a way to add some text or written notes on top of the references. That’d make brainstorming a bit easier also maybe pasting links in notes so I can easily go back to the artists page or tutorial.

Great overall but could be better
I still really like this app but I always has this problem of my big boards crashing whenever I try to export them as both pdf and image. I really wish this would have gotten fixed by now. I can’t back up my bigger boards because of this. Please fix this issue
Great, but hoping for some updates
Very helpful app, but I wish there was an option to write on the boards or do something along those lines
A must for all artists!
Absolutely fabulous app for a great price. I tend to use a lot of references for my work and I used to just swipe through my photos for them.
With this I can have lots of pictures all on the same page. You can crop them, flip, enlarge etc
I don’t believe you can write on it but it’s not an issue for me.
10/10 recommend

CRASH!!!
I’ve been using VizRef for over 3 years — it has always been my essential side tool for references. But now it keeps crashing nonstop!!! One of my main folders with tons of important references won’t open at all. I even tried freeing up storage by deleting other apps and files, but nothing works. Exporting isn’t an option either, which makes this even worse. Please fix this ASAP — I literally can’t access my work!

Its great
But can we get a search bar to get to certain boards faster
It’s Great For Beginner Use
I’ve been using this Reference App for years now, and it’s reliable, But for Artists with projects need a bit more “Organizational” elements. I think having a drawing option is nice, But adding a Folder to sort out your boards would be even better! There’s very little apps that has reference boards and this one is great. But please add more features!!

Not the same visual interface as in the “how to” video
The + button is missing from the lower left so there is 0 functionality. There is no way to add reference material from any source. I deleted the app and reloaded it and just the same…no “+” button on the lower left. I will delete for now and wait for a proper bug fix. Looks like the app could be useful if it worked correctly.
