Top Pcmac Reviews

Great for uploads on the go

By MicheleMidnight (Pcmac user)

I went 4 stars only because the app is little limited. Otherwise I am very satisfied! PRO: The huge advantage IS being able to upload while on the road. As long as you have wifi or data, it works well. I have heard some people think it is compressing images, but when I double check on my computer, they look fine to me! That could be their device settings, not the app. It also updates earnings and sales, sometimes before I even get notification of a sale on my phone. Phone is set for notifications and not my iPad. Just an FYI, notifications seemed to blank out volume in spots when shooting video footage! CON: Does not have all the options of the browser version. I wish I could move photos to the published folders on the app! Still logging in computer for management.
High Unapproved Rating

By Chitanian (Pcmac user)

Too many pics don’t get approved because the title is not descriptive enough, or supposedly not in english, even though it is. Or title doesn’t describe the image. We are artists, we title a picture how we feel like it should be titled. As a creator, song writer, photographer, producer, it just bothers me that a majority of my pictures get declined because of the title.. It should be based on the quality of the photo, not the title or description. Two people could see the same image and title it and describe it in two different ways.. and I don’t see a rename title or rewrite a description feature to update it once it gets declined. I just get frustrated because most of my pictures get declined for the wrong reasons. Very few seem to have legitimate reasons to be declined.
Couldn’t upload photo

By use my code to sign up (Pcmac user)

I tried many times to upload my photo but the app kept making me fail due to redundant keywords. When i was uploading my photo it says that I can add up to 50 keywords so I did 49 and hit the submit and failed message appeared. So i cut half of my keywords and saved submitted again but still kept failing. Then restarted app tried again failed again. Decided to decrease my keywords to 10 but still kept showing me redundant keywords message. Then visited help center which says app uploading process may delayed so I could try some time later. I tried an hour later again and still failing to submit my photo. That’s what it is.
Unnecessary additional compression to photos

By Sterling LeCour (Pcmac user)

I check every photo I intend to upload before I do so, so I don’t get a photo not approved with a “subject not in focus” explanation when I get it back. I uploaded a picture to see if it changed the quality and sure enough, it did. And not just by a little. I took two screenshots of the same photo: one in the photos app of my tablet, and one in the Contributor app. The screenshot I took while I was in the photos app of my tablet was zoomed in quite a bit more than the one in the contributor app and was nearly crystal clear still while the one in the app was clearly blurry. If this gets addressed I may update my review. Until then, I’ll use something else.
