Unsplash for Negative User Reviews

Photo LoadingThis is a great app for photos,but after the latest update the time it takes to load a photo is unbearable!!! I don’t know if this is a problem on my end but if not this needs to get addressed..Version: 2.0.1

This app was amazing...Ok this app truly was my favorite wallpaper app of all time, with unlimited access to Unsplash photos and the ability to organize them into collections. However, as of a few months ago, the app just... stopped working. I can’t sign in or sign up (internal error) and I can’t download more than one photo at a time without completely restarting the app. I am very sad to lose one of my staple and most favorite apps... if these bugs could be fixed in an update this would undoubtedly go back to 5 stars, but being in its current state I cannot give more than 1 star..Version: 1.11.1

Unsplash app2020 review: Don’t really understand about this “brand” nonsense—just a sneaky form of advertising. I will tell you I hate all forms of ads and brands and ignore them completely. Such a complete waste of my time to have to view this junk. I still like the quality selection of free photos though—it’s easy to view, Like, and add to my collections. It’s also nice for getting ideas for my own digital photography. Unsplash on the web: Ads interspersed with photos are super-annoying (hate ads [“brands” or whatever you call them])—the price we have to pay for “free” photos. However, these are user-submitted and I really resent being forced to see stupid ads when I’m browsing. Please don’t go the Pinterest route!.Version: 1.10

Non-functionalI tried to use the app, but it won’t even maintain functionality. After a search, if it returns results, I can scroll down one section then it says “Oops! The data couldn’t be read because it isn’t in the correct format.” Current iOS version, maybe they haven’t updated it yet, but it’s not usable..Version: 2024.02.2

No following page, or related picturesThe Unsplash website seems very fleshed out and thought through, however the app lacks many things like completing your profile and even having a following page, which would be something that could make Unsplash even more like a social media for photographers on iPhone, something that would revolutionize the photography industry as we know it. Also please add a related pictures page. Thanks.Version: 1.11.1

Fix this bug please!!!!I don't know what happened but now it's crashing and won't let me open the app!.Version: 2.7

Latest update makes app unusableFollowing the latest update, the app is now unusable. Why release this? I understand it’s free but seriously why bother?.Version: 2023.03

App is crashing when openingThere is plenty of space. Not sure what’s going on..Version: 2.7

Going downhillDecent app. But the quality of the content has been dropping significantly in the past couple of month. I don’t know if they changed their submission requirements and rules or what. But it’s becoming Facebook, really, with pictures of people’s weddings, birthdays, graduations, holidays, etc. Who would want somebody else’s personal photos as their wallpaper? This is just weird and creepy. Needs to be heavily moderated because it’s only going to get worse..Version: 1.4.1

App won’t openTried reinstalling but just gives an error sign when booting up app..Version: 1.11.1

What happened to collections?Love where the new app is going but missing the ability to search collections as in the previous version! Please bring this back!!!.Version: 1.3

I love it BUT one bugI love this app however, there is one bug that I cannot seem to fix. If I load the Unsplash app on my IPad Pro I can use the download button (arrow within a circle in the bottom right) fine. However, once I have downloaded an image I cannot download another unless I quite the app completely and re-open. Which is a bit pointless when I have spent a fair amount of time looking for an image only to go and have to do it again when the app reopens..Version: 2.5.1

Basic at the momentLove the site, but a lot of functionality is missing from the app. No collections and cannot see an option to login to an Unsplash account as of July 2018... so cannot save favourites or view etc. Promising but needs more functionality.Version: 1.1

Wish I had more ControlsBecause I hate all social media platforms, and most people’s opinions - I love Unsplash. Just beautiful photos uploaded by artists - no comments or captions. ALMOST perfect! I do wish I had the capability to favorite certain photographers or styles to see more of the work that I enjoy more regularly (nature, athletics, spirituality, 3D renders), and to hide certain photographers and works to show less of the work that I do not prefer to see daily (violence, darkness, sexuality, political activism). Some artists upload pieces that are a little borderline for my liking; and though I do wish them their freedom of expression, I also wish I had to ability to shield my own eyes from works that I do not appreciate in the least. Give me some control/privacy/user settings, and then I would consider this app perfect..Version: 2.6

App won’t let me download more than 1The first pic downloads well. Then it doesn’t. I have to quit and restart few times to get it working properly.Version: 2.5.1

Collections/follows/likes feature?I find the website super useful, but would really appreciate being able to browse and save photos for later in the app on my iPad, so that I can refine, choose and download later on my laptop (eg for designs). Thanks!.Version: 1.4.1

Widget is crapThe app itself is amazing. The widget itself keeps going to the last 30 days with view count and activity from yesterday. I don’t want to see that! I want to see gorgeous photos being suggested 😒.Version: 2.1

Invasive access to personal photosWhen I’m trying to “save” photos from the app into my phone, the app requires me to give it access to “read” and see all of my existing personal photos as well, instead of asking only for permission for “adding” or saving new photos. Any app like this, with internet access and also with access to read all existing personal photos, can easily upload in the background all our personal photos to its developers, without the user knowing anything about it. An app like this, which is designed for finding and saving images, should not ask to be given “read“ access to all our personal photos..Version: 1.11.1

Unable to log in for monthsPhotos are nice. App doesn’t work properly, every time I try to log in it just says “Server unable to understand request,” there are sometimes issues with downloading photos as well..Version: 2.5.1

Can’t assess the appEvery time I open the app it just something went wrong please fix this..Version: 1.0

Cannot download more than 1 photo at a time!The new update to this app does now allow me to download more that 1 photo at a single time. I’m on the latest firmware, with the latest version of the app on the latest iPhone. The workaround to this is to close the app fully, relaunch, search again and download - Please fix!.Version: 2.6

Very basic appThe photos themselves are great as you get a sense of real photography and not photoshopped junk, the app itself is the problem. The search option is extremely dumbed down, with no filters for results, what if in only looking for portrait, landscape, tags to help me more with the search, I see a photo I like, I want one to pop up like it, I honestly wouldn’t use this app if Pinterest actually had high quality images, please make your app better..Version: 1.11.1

Advertised expensive by Getty - new owner . Thrill is gineAfter Getty takeover, as it's the case in hostile takeovers, the nice curated pictures that we posted are getting hard to find. Easy to find is juggernaut's Getty Images expensive libraries. The organic, enthusiastic and joyously sharing ( I won't post " creator content " for the benefit of " tech" patent and copyright amassing profiteers. That was not for agencies . " Media gentrification "?.Version: 2.10

I love Unsplash but the latest app is buggy1. Trying to submit to a category immediately crashes the app 2. Photo locations aren’t recognized from exif data, this has been going on for a while now, not fun at all 3. You have to tap like a sapsucker to try to add tags, it just won’t let you get to input them easily 4. The last two or three photos I submitted (outside a category, too) aren’t even showing up in my feed let alone “under review”.Version: 2023.11

Doesn’t work with shortcutsI’ve tried to set random pictures as wallpaper on my iPhone through shortcuts (apple’s app) but it doesn’t work.Version: 2023.04

Stupid AppOk, I can’t Even post more than four pictures!?! Why is this happening, this app is not living up to its potential, The reviews take so long, just to post one picture, my phone has been infected with viruses from this app, it’s terrible don’t download 💔💔😭😡.Version: 2.5

Nice PicsBut I would of enjoyed it if I could actually save them to my phone and use them on my websites. But cool just took up 20mins of browser time when I could be hitting up the marijuana on the market right now lol..Version: 2.0.1

It doesn’t workI have a message saying “something is wrong” every time I try to open it...Version: 1.0

Not bad appsFrozen frequently!.Version: 2023.04

This app doesn’t do Unsplash justiceThe 2 stars I have given does not reflect how I rate Unsplash as a platform; it hosts some of the most incredible photographs I’ve seen, and the fact that they’re copyright free is amazing. However, this app is TERRIBLE. On the surface, it is aesthetically pleasing and simple to use... so far so good. But what about when you want to follow a photographer? You can’t. What if you want to see your feed of photos from the account you follow? You can’t. What about when you want to see the title of a photo, or the location the photographer has assigned? You can’t. While these things can be done on the website, they cannot be done on the app, making it pretty useless. Please, sort these problems out so that this app reflects how amazing Unsplash is!.Version: 1.9

Low resolutionThe photos are beautiful but the resolution is quite low at around the standard 72dpi..Version: 2.3.1

Finally, but where’s the ability to login?Glad to finally see a native iOS app, but why can’t I log in and see all my collections?.Version: 1.0

Every other update brings a new bugFor awhile, downloads didn’t work. Then there were various other issues. The latest one is you can’t open, favorite, or collect from the find similar photos list. Please stop breaking things that used to work just fine! As far as the content goes, I use unsplash regularly and love it, so the comment is purely for the app..Version: 2024.02

Can’t log inThe app won’t let me log in but I can log in no problem in Safari..Version: 2.5.1

Good app but...Great app! I loved it when I had my iPhone XR. But, whenever I upgraded my phone to the iPhone 12 Pro, the wallpaper from Unsplash made my phone have a weird ripple effect when I would close my app folders. I contacted Apple’s customer care about it, seeing as how this happened on the very first day I had the phone. The Apple customer care technician said to change my wallpaper — & the ripple effect went away immediately & hasn’t came back since I changed my wallpaper. Not sure what’s going on here, since how I used to use Unsplash wallpapers all the time in my XR..Version: 2.0.1

The last update broke the appThe app will not open since the last update. iPhone 13 Pro Max..Version: 2.7

Keeps crashingApp won’t open, just crashes instantly on me. Please fix!.Version: 2.7

“Oops, something went wrong.”I guess so. The app won’t open on my iPad or my iPhone. iOS14 on both, maybe that’s why..Version: 1.11.1

Ok except for one thingUnsplash is a great app. It gives you free, high resolution, and cool photos. But, after a while, (i dont know if other people have experienced this,) I couldnt download anymore pictures and the photos were getting pixelated. Other than that, its good. EDIT: It did download but it didnt say it did. Please fix this.Version: 2.6

CrashingApp crashes as soon as I open.Version: 1.11.1

Great for widgets, but…I use the app for its widget feature and it’s great! But, I have a few suggestions for better usability: Sometimes I want to change the image and for that, I have to either change the theme or frequency back and forth. Just a “Refresh” or “Change Image” option would be nice. Another thing is I can’t have two same-size widgets open with the same frequency AND theme. Because then the same photo is displayed on both widgets. I want them to be different, so I’m forced to change the frequency or theme of one of them. I’d like it if each one was different, no matter the settings..Version: 2.9

BRING BACK high quality image uploading!Unsplash has taken away the one thing we all loved, which was being able to upload and download high quality images. This made Unsplash stand out amongst all other websites and apps for photography uploading/downloading. I am so upset and disappointed that you can no longer even upload a 48 megapixel image, which is a very small image size in 2023. Please bring back what I loved so much about Unsplash 📷.Version: 2023.04

App won’t openWorks fine on my phone and computer but on my iPad it hasn’t worked for a while. I’ve tried deleting and downloading it again but no luck..Version: 1.11.1

TerribleRandomly deleted my photos that I took and you can only upload 10 photos per week would NOT recommend.Version: 1.11.1

Pls bring back snap scrollingWhose bright idea was it to remove snap scrolling? You've run out of ideas, now you want to destroy the user experience. It is genuinely a great app, but the last few updates have taken a hit on the user experience..Version: 2024.02.1

那个clear all历史记录的bug一年多了还没修复无语😓.Version: 2024.05

Can’t upload imagesApp is fine for browsing and creating collections, but it won’t let me submit full res images from my phone (have to use a laptop). I fill out all the metadata, then when I tap “done” nothing happens. No error message or anything. I tap “done” multiple times and nothing happens..Version: 2.10

Broken SearchSince the redesign, search filters aren't working..Version: 2.0.1

Can’t Open The AppWhat happened.Version: 1.11.1

Whoops!App doesn’t work - stuck on the error message. Please fix :(.Version: 1.0.1
