User Reviews

GemIQ offers strong cataloging, sharing, and background-editing features that work well for non-pro photographers and daily business use, with solid lightbox integration and detailed product pages. However, users repeatedly report unstable updates that worsen performance, significant Bluetooth/hardware compatibility issues with GemLight gear, degraded image quality and focus, and restrictions on saving/sharing media. Additional UX glitches (missing search, control issues, logouts) further hinder reliability. Overall, the app shows valuable capabilities but is hampered by recurrent stability and compatibility problems.

Pros

Catalog feature enables easy sharing and branding with a shareable URL for products.
Easy to use and accessible for non-professional photographers.
Smooth integration with lightbox hardware to produce a white background and support background removal/editing.
Ability to create detailed product pages and sleek, shareable catalog presentations.
Reliable for professional workflows and everyday business use.

Cons

Frequent updates that break features, degrade performance, and feel unstable.
Bluetooth/hardware connectivity issues with GemLight gear and compatibility problems with older devices.
Image quality and focus problems (blur, poor autofocus, color shifts) and ineffective calibration after updates.
Inability to save photos/videos to the camera roll (sharing/export limitations).
UI/UX glitches and instability (missing search bar, non-functional controls like zoom/focus, frequent logouts/crashes).

Recent reviews

I am on my second Gem light box and they continue to improve it with each new version. Improvements that could be made are the lights inside to help enhance the metals. Sometimes the photo settings blow out way too much in the product in the background. A nice balance can be obtained if you mess with the settings

I have used this app religiously for years now and suddenly I guess it updated and now I can not take a single photo. Honestly this has been crushing because I need to find an entire new system to take photos for my business now.
