2026-06-22	Ne*****	This is a great photo app for film enthusiasts, and for people who want to experience photos without a whole bunch of reels, ads, and influencers. I got rid of all social media a couple of years ago, so I haven’t been able to share my work. This app gives me a place to do that without all the clutter associated with the other big social media apps. Thanks for making it!

2023-10-23	Al*****	Really great- but I have one request- and that’s to search by camera and lens. I know that a lot depends on the film stock but I still think it would be helpful - thanks for considering my feedback!

2023-10-04	WI*****	Awesome app, really nice idea. The reason for three stars is because the app is a pretty buggy. Overall the UI can be more polished and intuitive but that will probably come with time. Hopefully this app doesn’t go extinct and they add more UI & feed/exploration features later down the road. 5/5 concept tho. However, I do wish there was a way to save presets (or batch upload) so you don’t have to fill in image information (type of film, camera, lens, scanner, notes, format, film lab, etc.) for every single image you upload, because that can get tedious fast.
