Photography app for sharing your photos and discovering great photographers

Features & Capabilities

Plates is a unique photography community app designed for storytelling, curation, and collaboration. Instead of traditional hashtags, it uses 'plates'—photo albums grouped by themes like trips, passions, or photography styles—to help you organize your content effectively. You can add photos and videos to plates and collaborate with other photographers by adding them as co-curators, fostering creative collaboration and joint photo collections.

Discover breathtaking images from photographers worldwide across various genres such as astrophotography, wildlife, portrait, and landscape. Plates also respects user privacy by allowing the creation of private plates to share intimate moments with select friends and family. Whether you're a casual hobbyist or a professional photographer, Plates offers a powerful platform for sharing, discovering, and growing in photography. Join the community and bring your photos to life with Plates today!

User Reviews

Users appreciate Plates for its unique concept of organizing photos into collaborative themed plates, ad-free experience, and supportive developers. It is user-friendly and suitable for diverse photographers wanting to showcase their work without Instagram's restrictions. However, many mention lack of strong social interaction, inability to delete accounts, app slowness, and limited customization features.

Recent reviews

Not sure where these reviews are coming from. App is very slow and really has no social aspect, rhyme or reason. It is however unique and has potential, but it has spun it's tires for so long, I wouldn't hold my breath.

It's ok. Format is boring. No real rhyme nor reason for this app. It just puts the photos on the main page and you scroll to keep seeing others work. Creating a plate is easy, but no real reason for it. Plates refers to the glass negatives once used in large format photography. No way to delete an account from the app.
