only low res preview in gallery, cant pinch to zoom on gallery without downloading- deal breaker. Do you think you can update this?

★★★★ Emily Roberts 1/31/2026 v4.0.9
Honestly thought this app would work way better. Super cute but not a single person could take pictures and upload them satright up.
★★★★ Bcm Dagger 12/7/2025 v4.0.2

★★★★ Brave Warrior 8/9/2025 v3.7.1
Very slow to upload images and videos
★★★★ Patricia Hepburn 7/17/2025 v3.6.2
I have to say that overall I'm really unhappy with the app. The app is marketed as being an easy way for family and friends to share images, however it's clunky and unusable. Every convinience involves a further payment, which still does not fix the issues. I have paid for multiple upgrades and yet my guests are still prompted to pay so that they can upload more than one image at a time, resulting in noone uploading images. Overall the product is poor and I'm disappointed to have paid for it.
★★★★ Linas 7/12/2025
Read reviews as these are not wrong! Asks million questions, forces to log in and payment to set it up, scanning QR code as a guest still requires to log in. No one during the party wants to install another app or to log in!
★★★★ Urmila Bhavari 6/26/2025 v3.5.0
i dont know why but this app is glitching for me i have heard so many great reviews for it i was expecting so much i am sure its not my phones problem but i dont know like whats wrong with it ?
★★★★ Stagfoo 6/12/2025
nice onboarding and then, login prompt. nope delete
★★★★ Tosha Watkins 5/29/2025 v3.2.5
Starting setting up adding cover photos, info, location, time/ Date etc and then the app crashes saying, "Unexpected error, go back home" and it just repeats doing it. WASTE of Time I DON'T have! I'll STICK TO MY GOOGLE PHOTOS CLOUD STORAGE WHERE I CREATE MY ALBUMS & IT AUTOMATICALLY TAGS DATE/ LOCATION & MAKES VIDEOS W/ MUSIC I never even made it all the way through before it crashes repeatedly. Uninstalling & moving on. 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽
★★★★ Althea Esther Victoria 4/27/2025
THIS APP IS A SCAM. I've paid for premium album features so i could download all files at once, but never been able to. Still had to download everything 1 by 1. Reached out to their "help" service which is their Instagram account and got nothing back.
★★★★ Danielle Gallagher 4/27/2025 v3.1.2
I paid for the plan with unlimited videos, photos, etc. But once you're on the app planning for the event, you have to do all of these steps to "unlock" the features you've already paid for, so now I'm stuck with a 300 photo limit simply because I don't want to create a 2nd album or pre- invite 3 people to join my album. This is a scam and I'm disputing the charges.
★★★★ judith rizo 4/22/2025 v3.1.2
the app first didn't let me paid for premium album, then it didn't let me log in. And there is no way to recover te account no emails are sent to recover.
★★★★ Manik 4/5/2025 v3.1.0
need sudden improvement in privacy policy
★★★★ Cindi Burchell 3/26/2025 v3.0.0
Nothing like the marketing. We've tried on Android - controls don't work on the cover photo page because they're literally at the top of the screen, and the cover photo is required so... Tried on iPhone - confusing setup, limited to 20 shares... We didn't go any further, especially since other reviews mentioned getting all the way to the end and finding out that it really isn't free.
★★★★ Amber Green 1/15/2025 v2.18.8
Doesn't work, AT ALL. Link to shared albumn doesn't work, QR code doesn't work. There is also no contact information to call or get help. Will be filling a complaint and asking for my money back. Scam-R-Us
★★★★ Ivy Campos 12/26/2024
Two issues. 1. I can't login after reinstallation. 2. QR code not working nor the code of album.
★★★★ Avanthika A S 12/15/2024
Didn't like the app. If gone out of an album hard to find the setting.Didn't like at all
★★★★ Lauren Meandro 12/9/2024 v2.17.3
Downloaded this app at my friends' wedding so I could upload wedding memories. The app said there were too many people added to the album but I could gift the couple a larger file and guest size. So I purchased it, paid $30 and NOTHING happened. Still gave everyone the same notification that there were too many guests added and to contact the album owner. The brides informed me only 3 people were on the album so it couldn't be true that there were too many people added. I want my money back!
★★★★ Saeki 12/4/2024 v2.17.3
When i click the picture it says "Memory Not Available" it also says its been deleted by the creator when I'm the creator and didnt delete it. What is happening???
★★★★ Marcela Gongora 11/28/2024 v2.17.2
Las Fotos se quedan cargando y nunca terminan de subirse
★★★★ Maddude333 10/28/2024 v2.16.3
downloaded this to try it, the QR scanner that they give you is unrecognisable by the app, what a joke.
★★★★ cursorus 10/9/2024 v2.15.5
Terrible app! Never install it!!!!!! Choose something better!
★★★★★ A2C Hao PAF 2/12/2026 v4.1.2
Can somebody help me? I was not able to proceed with my payment method because of my play country is Philippines. Is it not available in the Philippines?
★★★★★ Ale zepeda 5/22/2025 v3.2.5
Not all of the pictures taken by my guests were saved in the album. It was for my wedding :/ I paid for the unlimited photos & videos using the web version to upload. But many of my guests realized that their pictures weren't being added to the album. They all followed the same steps, so it's pretty weird that some pictures did upload and others didn't for other guests. It's pretty frustrating because I lost those memories and didn't get what I expected from what I had paid due to that issue.
★★★★★ Mariam Tamer 4/13/2025 v3.1.1
If u need it for an event, you gotta pay
★★★★★ alice dutta 3/9/2025
I can not sent it to my friend
★★★★★ jayson sanchez 3/6/2025 v2.19.3
I subscribe for a year. This app need to improve. No select all option. You cannot upload without date in the picture, otherwise you need to do it 1 by 1 time consuming. You can upload 2mins video only even you bought the premium.
★★★★★ Jacqueline Parmley 2/23/2025 v2.19.3
Get it all set up then it tells you have to pay
★★★★★ Barani 1/27/2025 v2.18.10
Streak not showing
★★★★★ Pratibha Thakur 12/13/2024 v2.17.5
Everything about this app is good except that it doesnt allow you to download photos from its web version. you need to download the app for it. This is not informed when you buy premium version for uploading photos from web itself.
★★★★★ Francisco Sabala 12/2/2024 v2.16.2
App just keep crashing on Galaxy S24 and IPhone 16.
★★★★★ Gerard Rodríguez González 11/7/2024 v2.16.4
Debería leer los metadatos de las fotos por sí sola para poder identificar cuando se hizo cada foto. El concepto de la app me parece una maravilla pero ese simple aspecto fastidia la experiencia. Por favor, arreglenlo.
