PULSEpx - Photography

Engaging way to get peer feedback on photo submissions

EDIT: I have lowered the rating for this app. I feel this app doesn’t support beginners whatsoever and actually has taken exp points for not doing good in a contest. I have had a photo DQ’ed without explanation (I followed guidelines) while other photos get voted above mine and don’t follow guidelines. Sadly this app promotes over-produced photos and minimizes amateur photographers IMO This app allows for you to enter your pics and go up against others. This is enjoyable but without spending money it’s hard to enter into many of the contests. The functionality of the app is good overall but voting for other pics is not intuitive enough but overall the app works well **Disclaimer I rarely give 5 stars. There is usually room to improve.**

I’ve been using this app since the beginning. At first, withdrawals worked fine — I provided RAW files as requested, and my first payout went through. But now, it’s clear the app bans accounts when you try to withdraw your winnings. My first account was blocked after redemption for “AI content” so, I decided that it because of Photoshop generative retouch and created a new account to continue using the app. That account worked fine until I tried to ask for redemption again — it was immediately banned as a “duplicate account,” even though I read the rules and there is no prohibition on having a second account. It feels like the app simply doesn’t want to pay users. My previous review disappeared without any response. Extremely frustrating and unfair.
