I found out this platform after following some artist that have been using it for inspiration. I love the look and the quality images on the platform and I wish there will be functions like suggesting similar images and a better way to trace where these images came from(although some were uploaded by users). The website is great but the mobile versions still are a bit buggy, I got stuck refreshing the page on my iPhone 8 tuning iOS 14, and the app just didn’t work. While on my iPad, there’s no way to use in landscape mode (which is my most used orientation) so that’s a bummer. Maybe a tagging system that could help with image searches and related suggestions? Overall this has been my go to site for inspiration, but the lack of some functions do make me go back to Pinterest (now with too much ads) just so I can find one image I like and kind of go down suggestions and enjoy where it might lead me to.

This app in theory is lovely. Pinterest without the ads. Wonderful images. A creators dream, however when I paid for a subscription to it for a year I did not have it on an automatic renewal. I never put apps on automatic renewal because I try them first and am never certain of them. This app turned out to have many issues, freezing up, being unable to save certain things etc. I messaged the company and heard nothing back. No help. It was a complete waist of money. Silence on their part. Then I go about my year and suddenly I have a $70 charge in my PayPal and I’m like “what for???” Track it back to this app. My account in on automatic renewal. I email them and again silence. Switch it off. Go back later and the automatic renewal is on again! I don’t know if it’s a defect not sure, but their customer service is not helping AT ALL. It feels very scammy and I want to warn others.

This app caught my attention as a platform for creatives to share inspiration and showcase designs. While the app does offer that, it limits the amount of images you can see for a period of time until it refreshes, you are limited to 150 saved/uploaded images (which didn’t take me longer than like a month of light use.) A Paige majority of the images shared come from other websites or apps that feature the image. In my opinion it’s currently a more sleek and simplified Pinterest that limits your creativity by paywalling its features after limited use. I can’t say this app features anything worth paying for.
