Flickr Customer Insights

1. Finally, I uninstalled, then reinstalled and I got the update, but it's horrible! It mixes the desktop site and mobile app in weird ways, and asks me to go through entering my username and password each time I open it.

2. Nevertheless, the app is great, and I enjoy seeing all of the posts that the community makes!I updated to the latest version and lost the ability to upload pictures.

3. Even when it does work, it takes 2-8 seconds each.I keep Flickr updated though I often have issues with this app.

4. I'm almost certain the developers gave up on the app years ago.The app is great! I think it's laid out very well, transitions look nice, and I like how they put their own spin on some little things, like loading animations and swiping between photos.

5. This latest app is nothing more than a shortcut to the website - in desktop mode! - and doesn't save your credentials, or have any of the mobile features, including auto-upload.

6. I went with Flickr because it's an old company, but they make it so unreasonably hard to upload a research portfolio, even when you're paying monthly.

7. I think the app's home experience is nice, though I'd like an option to hide the most recent comments on posts, as I feel it's just a little cluttered that way.

8. Fix notifications, let people receive notifications of new posts, and get support for Notes on mobile.

9. Notes are fantastic.I've been a long term user of Flickr for a variety of reasons.

10. I love Flickr, but the app has ruined.Notifications don't work.

11. There are constantly issues with uploading photos from mobile device.
