Definitely not a good app anymore
Started off bad from the start. Went for the paid version for faster uploads. Then none of my submissions were reviewed or being accepted. Sent email and the my fixed it the next day.
Good I’m thinking ok it’s not bad.
However, ever since then, not only do get no more sales, none of my uploads show up even tho it says accepted. I’d give it -star if I could. Stay away from this app.

Scam, no true customer support,
Well, signed up a few months ago, and it was fun. Uploaded ab 100 images and most were approved, was excited, then thought okay I will subscribe to their service to get the quicker review time, well it wasn’t as promised. The first batch wasn’t reviewed in a few days, it was way over a week and after I messaged them to complain.
Since then almost all my images 99% of them are rejected with very vague explanations. They promised new guidelines which they did release, but they too are relatively vague, and to be honest their examples of good images are of less quality in terms of composition and subject and the like than mine which have been rejected.
Customer service is a joke, generic responses from Ike and Marcella, not real help or advice.
It seems they want to pivot the platform to selling more off your own personal platform than going through the stock agencies as they always say that is your option once your photos are rejected.
Another issue with rejected images, I have submitted images and they were accepted, then later submitted images from the same day with the same equipment and they were rejected.
Oh well, this was my first foray into stock images and I am feeling I chose the wrong one, I don’t this they are reputable.
Case in point, I use google to log in, and on my smartphone android google won’t allow me to because of security issues with wirestock app,
I think that says it all.
Run, do waste your time or money

Wirestock is trash
Total garbage company that bait and switched its contributors. Contacted service and they gave a canned answer with no help. The payouts are laughable. They now force you to get their premium service which would never pay for itself. This company is such a joke. They will be out of business by end of year.

Two stars because it used to be great
In its current state I can’t recommend Wirestock. It used to be the best platform to upload and sell photos as well as give valuable feedback to aspiring photographers. Wirestock would offer constructive criticism for images that were rejected and their reasoning for rejecting.
But now they’ve changed the way their system works. Now if you upload a photo and it doesn’t pass the sniff test they punish you. Photo acceptance rate must be at 85% approval or greater. If you fall below the 85% approval at any time they will then ask you to pay a monthly fee to continue to use the platform. This is highly discouraging and makes me rethink using the platform at all. I loved the constructive criticism that Wirestock used to offer. It motivated me to get better and only submit my best work.
Wirestock, you’ve forgotten what made this platform so good and abandoned the young and aspiring. The new system might raise the bar for new photographers just joining the platform but implementing these new rules on someone who’s been in the system for some time is synonymous with changing the rules in the middle of the game. Disgusting cash grab.
It used to be awesome. Bring back the good old days where you’re actually encouraging your users rather than spitting in their faces.

Photo was not accepted because of noise
Are you kidding me? This has to be the worst app I have ever seen. We need a collective voting option for the App Store to remove an app for not being up to date or reasonable on their app
Such a fail
I have been with them for 6+ months and haven’t sold a single picture. Not sure if it a scam or what. I’d look elsewhere to sell stock.

Great Utility, wish it had iPad support
This app is great and is Almost better than the website. However, I wish it had iPad integration because right now the screen is not full size, etc. I really like using the new m1 iPad Air for my workflow and editing videos. Even without full ipad support it’s so nice to be able to download, edit, and upload from one device and it has not slowed me down yet. Learned about this app from FroKnowsPhoto.

I guess they’re a scam site
Fortunately I have posted only 3 pics here and they at least stole only those. Now I can’t sign in on my account with fb and on the app that I have on the phone my pic that were on. They aren’t anymore but but I see that they’re on the site but not credited to me. Maaaaan what a scam. I have wrote to them and nothing in response nooooooothing. Only on Tweeter the got back couple of times and even there no more answers. Ufffff guys don’t go for this site at the moment. I’m more than sure that they are a big scam

Thanks for your review, Rafhar! It's good to know you are enjoying our app. :)
Great service to photography
You have no idea the amount of time this saves me. Having to upload and reupload site, after site. It doesn’t cover all but all the main sites are. Saves me hours of work uploading pics. It doesn’t cover picfair but they are unique in their service.
