EyeEm - Photography 12+

I’ve been exploring apps & websites to monetize my true passion, taking photos of culinary delights, places, people, my pets @ other stuff that catches my attention!!! I tried several apps that were not so user friendly & no human to contact to get problems resolved. I installed EyeEm and was able to navigate, upload multiple photos with ease, and actually was quite surprised at the progress my photos have made in such a short time (less than 24 hrs). I was notified by another user of the app and given a tip for a possible opportunity. I have but one option, &that
That is to succeed in the professional photography profession!!! Would definitely recommend this app as the go to for others so they can avoid the headaches that I went through trying apps which obviously need MUCH MORE ATTENTION & many problems fixed in order for them to become a functional application!

I’ve become much less into this app due to these issues.

1. Uploading from my photo library, having to go into my library and the photos I want to upload, rather than how it used to be where each time we want to upload we can do it straight from our library (rather than the current tedious task of selecting specific photos and then adding those to album on EyeEm to upload.). What’s also infuriating is twice I did it the current way, taking a bunch of time to select a lot of photos to add and then it dropped me out of that screen, sending me back to square one.

2. The continued issue of when I’m uploading pics, adding my caption info, copying and pasting that so I don’t have to keep typing the same info each time, then when I go to paste that info on the next pic, it’s blank, doesn’t stick. The multiple upload feature doesn’t work right either. This stuff has been going on for a good while now. Can’t believe nobody has said anything. I don’t have any of these issues with Instagram. I like the EyeEm platform and community but it’s very flawed.

I have only been using the app for about five or six days and have learned how to use it easily. Definitely user friendly interface and navigation. The photos are uploaded to your own site kind of like social media and you can chose to put them on the market form that point. I had my site developed, customized, and photos uploaded within a few minute so its not a hard or long process to set up. Moving the photos to the market is easy to do and you can add custom tags and keywords to each photo. The worst thing about this app is when you do decide to sell photos on the market then it seems like they take quite a long to time to review and approve the photos for market selling. Other than that good stuff. It s lot of fun to take photos, edit them, and try to sell your work. Good luck future photographers. See you on EyeEm .
