jAlbum 12+

The main problem I have with the app is a major one - practically half of the photos when creating an album fail to upload. Now, it's easy enough to go back and re upload and they eventually will BUT if your photos need to be in sequence (and often they do) now you're totally screwed. The failed ones go to the end of the line to try again.

I suppose you could just do them one at a time and spend hours making sure they upload in the correct order, but ain't nobody got time fo' dat!

A nice start and great potential, but this seems more like a beta version at this point. While some of my jalbums work well and open readily, others have thumbnails that (while nice pieces of impressionistic art) bare zero resemblance to my photos. In another case, albums that are password protected simply lock up the app forcing you to quit the app. Lack of an ability to see the tagged photo metadata and titles is a weakness throughout. And lack of search ability is also a big hole.

On the upside, images seem to render quickly on both 3G and on WiFi. Nice, clean interface.

I am really looking forward to using this as a mobile viewing platform for my photos once these initial kinks are worked out.

The IOS version of this app won’t even boot up on my iPad Pro. It just shuts down as soon as I enter my passcode info. This means that I will have to keep an old Windows laptop around to even use this program. As a user for the past three years now, I have been relatively satisfied. But since I do all my work now on the iPad, I will be looking for a more compatible IOS photo album unless JAlbum invests more resources into better software.
