ProxyPics 4+

Anyone with a modicum of camera skills can download this app and make some easy money. If you are in a larger city, the opportunities will be greater than if you live in a more suburban or rural environment. One benefit of the obscurity of this app is that the small number of users provides you with certain leverage to get more money per gig in cases where the job is more out of the way that normal. A vast majority of the jobs are pretty easy all things considered and ProxyPics provides well crafted infographics/guidelines for each type of assignment found within the app. The chat representatives are very responsive, kind, and understanding. Another benefit of it being a small company is the hands on approach that even employees on the executive level take on. I have had the AVP of Operations (David Burns-Weese) personally reach out via email to ask about taking jobs on the outer edges of my 30 mile radius and have experienced nothing but kindness in all correspondence. You should download this app if you need a side-gig to make money when you are bored, but don't expect to make it a full time arrangement unless you live in a very busy and saturated urban area.

Hey Brendan,
Thanks for sharing! Our AVP will be glad to read your feedback. Slowly, we are growing our rural areas as the demand for investment lots in rural markets continues to rise. We are excited to grow and keep our Proxies busy!

I’ve been doing photo assignments on other platforms since the pandemic and have logged hundreds of miles to dozens of locations, usually very rural. Rural always has it’s challenges, from poor reception to incorrect GPS locations, and of course, fewer opportunities. I’ve done fewer assignments for ProxyPics than others, mostly because it offers very little in my area currently and the ones that do come up are typically claimed extremely quickly. However, it pays quite well so the few I can snag are usually worth it. My issue with Proxy Pics is that I have repeatedly been unable to contact support when I needed it. Whether it’s a question about an assignment, a request for time extension, or being in the right location but unable to take photos because the map is wrong in the app (not uncommon in rural areas) I’ve been left on read more times than I’ve gotten responses. Even in early days, other platforms had lags in response time, but there was ALWAYS a response. This has not been the case with Proxy Pics, which is sad because it’s quite a good platform otherwise. Fairly easy to use, very clear instructions, and again, good pay. But when you’re doing gig work, time is money, and apparently my time isn’t worth much to them. Give me a reason to change this review, ProxyPics- I’d love to do it.

Overall this is a really good app. The recent changes made to the landscape audits have made a world of difference. To be very picky, I would like to see all needed photos in one spot rather than the dumpster, ADA parking, and loading dock photos being buried in the questionnaire section. As for residential, the app is super straight forward. I would like to see the button to take a photo higher up rather than needing to scroll below the instructions on how to take a photo. The last change I would love to see is sound alerts when a new order is available. At the moment, I have to be looking at my phone or else I miss orders. Again, this is me being picky. I appreciate the online chat function, but most of all, I appreciate that I have always been able to reach Liza via email or phone when a question has popped up even when I have reached out after her business hours (I am in a different time zone). Liza is always very helpful, friendly, and personable. I feel supported and appreciated. I always prioritize my workload based on the ease of working with a company and how they treat me, Proxy Pics is at the top.
