Utiful - Divide and Rule Your Photo Collection Reviews

better ways, better options

the OS og

If a developer who feels they need to switch to a subscription appreciates or cares at all about the paying customers that invested with them from the beginning, there is a way to do so. This is not it. Especially since this app was only so so, yet with promise, in the beginning. You don’t take away features people paid for. You do add new features, that can then be placed behind the paywall. Like true encryption. Sure some would still complain, but you could stand tall on merit and customers like myself would actually defend you in a honest and fair review. Some people don’t mind subscriptions, I do, but I can’t complain if I still have what I paid for. Fair right? Now, I could care less if you don’t get a single new user and go belly up. Why? Because what would me and the other early adopters lose out on, you already took away the main function we paid for. Saving a pic to the app. Bad business as far as I’m concerned. No need for a response unless you plan to implement my suggestion.

previously paid

almost 2 years back i paid about 9.99 USD for this application for one time purchase.. right now they asked me to pay 1.99 monthly or 19.99 year ... what a nonsense and closed all access to my folders which i was created last 2 years .. it not acceptable at all

Disgusted with subscription

After buying this app and the latest upgrade now requires a subscription- Disgusting.

The Program I’ve always wished for!

The camera roll was good, but I needed a program to organize all the great photos I’ve taken with my fantastic iPhone. Then I came across this program and it was the answer to my wishes. It works great and is intuitive. What more could I wish for! Art

Disappointed

I agree with the many other reviewers voicing disappointment over the change to subscription pricing. We have already paid for this app. Now to “require” your current customers to pay a monthly/annual fee to continue being able to add photos and “use the app as we have been and paid for” is not right. Make subscription the requirement for new users but Grandfather us in for “the access we had” with the option to upgrade/subscribe for access to new features.

Where have you been all my iPhone owning life....

This app is changing my life.... I use my phone a lot --- I mean ALOT for work, and I WAS ALWAYS OVERWHELMED by organizing and referencing my photos (let alone personal photos). The problem w creating "an album" on the iPhone camera roll is it STILL has to stay in main camera roll - clogging it and making it difficult to find photos when you need them.... thank you, thank you, thank you.... I'd give it 10 stars if I could...?

Used to be great

I used to love this app. It let me organize all my photos and keep my camera roll clean and organized. I even did the paid version so it worked best for what I needed it for. Now they want to have a yearly subscription and those of us who had it before are being forced to upgrade to this if we want to keep using the app. Absolutely ridiculous.

Total Garbage

I almost lost all my photos fo Rom the last 10 years. While it was nice to be able to organize them be VERY careful when you upgrade phones. Mine did not come over; just the folders. No photos!!! I was lucky as I had not wiped my old phone and started exporting. That was a disaster s it crashed writing to multiple locations. And now they want to charge yearly for this junk ? After spending a considerable amount to but the program. Stay away !!!

An organizational dream!

This app is so easy to use and should be on the iPad of everyone whose workflow involves images, whether posting to web sites and blogs, managing a collection of photographs, or organizing scrapbooks. One of the features I like best is that you can easily share an image to a page on a browser, such as adding media to a Wordpress site or to a comment hosted by Disqus. I use Ulysses a lot and it likewise allows me to easily add an image to a page. The support is helpful and responsive: I had a few questions and they provided detailed solutions. I've been looking for an easy and comprehensive tool for organizing my image collection on both my Mac and iPad. There are a number of excellent choices for the Mac (which I'm trying to winnow down to a single app) but there are just a few for the iPad, and, except for Utiful, the apps are pretty lousy. Thank you for developing this very useful app for the iPad.
