User Reviews

Overall sentiment is negative, with a few mild positives. Pros noted: the app is user-friendly with quick responses, users can see when their photos sell, and contributors have a long-standing history on the platform. Cons repeated across reviews include frequent upload attempts failing and batch-edit glitches; low payouts and a $25 minimum cash-out; inconsistent or opaque moderation with many rejections; post-update UI/UX regressions such as poor navigation, inability to sort by most recent, and search/organization problems; and account/access issues including suspensions, logouts, and weak support. Reliability, payout fairness, and moderation predictability are the core concerns.

Pros

The app is user-friendly and provides quick responses.
Users can see when their photos have sold.
Contributors have a long-standing history on the platform.

Cons

Frequent upload failures and batch-edit glitches, making submissions unreliable.
Low payouts and a high cash-out minimum of $25, with tax-page friction.
Inconsistent or opaque moderation resulting in many rejections without clear explanations.
UI/UX issues after updates, including poor navigation, inability to sort by most recent, and general search/organization problems.
Account access problems and weak support, including suspensions and frequent logouts.

Recent reviews

The app just doesn’t really work. It’s great for checking to see if images have been approved and for viewing monthly earnings. Other than that it doesn’t do much. The app has not been able to update my portfolio in months so I can’t view anything in my portfolio through the app. Has the possibility to be something useful and good. Definitely doesn’t seem like it’s been updated since it was first created. Lots of room for improvement.

Shutterstock is okay. This app, though, is totally worthless. Contributors can’t use it for anything; we have to use the computer web interface. Why even release something this purposeless?
