  • Awesome for quick upload but needs 2 fixes

    This app is awesome for uploading all my items to my store very quickly, but it needs a few fixes. The first one is I need to be able to upload more than one photo at a time for an item I'm selling. If they could figure this out, all my pics would be on there quick. The second is allow a slide bar we can choose to go ahead and make a link to the item, versus using the sell now feature. I tried to use the retail app to load new items too, but there's too many steps there. This app is faster - it just needs a few tweaks - mainly not having to go back and load more photos to the item. If it's there somewhere, I'm missing it & it's not user friendly.

  • Quickest for basic editing

    This is probably the most simplistic and easy to quickly use app of this type for generating photos for e-commerce. However, the refine background tool is difficult to use in my opinion. It would be nice if you could see what will be erased while you are touching the screen and then actually erase when you release. Or if there was a way to draw a straight line. Similar to the way a line tool works on digital art programs. Its very easy to accidentally erase areas that need to be left and then you have to undo what seems like a million times to finally get the result you want. All things considered, this is the fastest way I’ve found to prep basic photos for selling items online though.

  • Update: Scenes are back!

    Trying to update my prior review but the App Store isn’t letting me. This app has been indispensable for quite some time. A recent update removed the feature I use the most: scenes. It is important for us to have consistent backgrounds and the AI feature doesn’t allow that. I contacted support about the issue and explained to them why it was useful and they listened! Even though a small percentage of users of this app has that feature, they brought that back for us. Thank you very much Square! Thanks for listening and changing the app. It does not go unappreciated! Add a tip feature so I can provide some monetary reward?

  • Thank goddesses and so on

    Yeah those little dinky boxes you had to buy if you ever did arbitrage or took photos of purchased or made items to sell online that fell apart instantly…. Those dark overwhelming days are over. 🪄🪄🪄🪄🌅🆒🆓🆕🆗Welcome to the best app for not only making your items look professionally photographed thanks to some gorgeous yet minimal features on the app like the shadow effects in those dinky boxes but also removing the need for a green screen with proper lighting with people. I do wish it had a video mode. But overall, I’m happy It caught my eye & I found photo studio. Ok! Now back to 📸 of expired trousers pantyhose & socks. 💁🏻‍♀️🩲🧦🤳📱👟👠🩱👙🩴 🪄🧎🏼🤏🏻

  • Please fix your app

    First, thank you for making this tool available! I do have an issue however. It is incredibly annoying and counterproductive to have to keep scrolling through to find images because your app keeps switching to “all photos” in the middle of attempting to find images in specific albums. I understand the app primarily is for live snapping so maybe there was not a lot of thought in the retrieval of photos not immediately selectable but that should change or just remove the albums option since it defaults back to all photos while accessing the album.

    Thanks for the feedback - this sounds like a bug. Feel free to email photo-studio-feedback@squareup.com and we can keep you up to date on the status of the fix

  • Wow! Impressive Beginning, Please keep working on it :)

    In it’s current state (version 1.0.2) I can’t use it. Seeing the replies to other’s feedback, I’m encouraged. This app is needed very much. I searched for years and have not found anything.Pros:A catalog item can be created easily with Photo, Title, Description and Price.With WooCommerce integration the item syncs!Cons:Needs ability to take multiple photos of an item.There are no camera controls to adjust focus, lighting, or other photos settings. (See ProCamera for an abundance of ideas)Suggestions:No SKU input: For UPC items a scanner would be useful, for non UPC items a SKU template would be useful.Audio recording so I can capture details while inspecting the item. (Dimensions, weight, etc.)Get some target niches and beta testers in those niches. This tool is not really going to be used by people who sell mass produced items that have professional photographs (i.e. the Keds tennis shoe example).

    Thanks so much for the suggestions! We'll update our response here once we tackle some of them
