HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (13 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

WHAT THEY COMPLAIN ABOUT · SHARE OF BAD REVIEWS
Price and subscription19%

3 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ The subscription doesn't seem worth it at this time.
★★★★★ When I heard that Alan Schaller was starting up a Photography app I jumped on it with a paid subscription.
★★★★★ Also money grab by the creator, charging money to join more groups, charging money for higher resolution..
Limits, credits, locked features19%

3 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ This limits creative exchange and risks promoting photography within a more exclusive circle rather than fostering an open, diverse community.
★★★★★ Unfortunately, they only have an app which is severely limited, time consuming to enter details to post with images and is badly challenged in terms of tutorials and user support.
★★★★★ They don't have a limit to how long they keep our information.
Login and account problems13%

2 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Constant login issues and always getting signed off
★★★★★ Auch mit meinem Apple Account konnte ich mich leider nicht anmelden.

Looks great14%

★★★★★ A smart interface (love the use of groups), a beautiful design, a creative and supportive community and clever features throughout.
★★★★★ They are still working on a web interface but once the have it, i am going to cancel Flickr, Smugmug and others and already use more than IG

OK Start.

The app is clearly not a native app and doesn’t support many of the aspects that make iPhone apps special. The iconography can be difficult to decipher. Animations are either jumpy or don’t exist at all. Gestures and layout are blocked and blocky. Images aren’t full bleed and large text sizes aren’t well supported. Loading profiles, galleries, and collections is slow, and the overall experience of uploading your own images is slow and takes too many steps. The subscription doesn’t seem worth it at this time. And limiting to 10 uploads per day feels user-hostile, which is the opposite of how you should be feeling, as the user of a new platform. You should be encouraging users to get their entire portfolios uploaded and organized as quickly as possible. That way, they’re excited and share and sell the virtues of this app. The developers and designers definitely need to take more time to think about how this app could feel great, not just anti-IG

★★★★★Sep 21, 2026
Excellent

I use the IRYS app on both my iPad and IPhone and I love sharing my photos with other photographers. The app is easy to use and works perfectly for me. I really like that there are no ads, and I don‘t think the membership fee is to high. I would be nice if there was a desktop version, as it would make uploading photos easier.

★★★★★Sep 6, 2026
It’s ok

Constant login issues and always getting signed off

★★★★★Aug 29, 2026
Fantastic!

I find the Irys app a breath of fresh air. I really enjoy being able to just look at photographs that are truly amazing by the very talented photographers. My favorite feature is being able to zoom in and see the photo on the entire screen of my phone no more squinting. Also, it’s ad free, which is really great. I recommend it to anybody who loves photography.

★★★★★Aug 21, 2026
Solide

Eine sehr solide App, mit einer noch kleinen Mitglieder zahl, deshalb schraubt eure erwartungen für Reaktionen auf eure Fotos am Anfang etwas herunter. Dafür ist Irys nicht Bot-verseucht, wie andere Plattformen. Ich finde sie leicht zu bedienen und übersichtlich.

★★★★★Aug 20, 2026
Truly an app for photographers

Downloaded this app when I decided to get off of IG and I honestly love it. Of course you don’t get as much interactions and posts but it stops me from doomscrolling and the interactions mean a lot more when it’s from another photographer I respect. On top of all that, it’s nice to see more art and less lifestyle
