Foap - sell your photos Hack 3.12.14 + Redeem Codes

I really love this app the pictures from around the world are amazing and they get you out of the house to take pictures and to be creative it’s really fun the only downside I have is I cannot get into my winnings to see if I’ve won anything like Foap Will send you out on a Mission to take a certain kind of picture which is fun but the thing is is I can’t tell if I’ve won anything or not other than that best app ever that’s why I give it a five star regardless if I can look up if I have one or not it literally got me out of the house in the rain around so much I was 201 pounds and went down to 149 I’ve lost weight and I’ve been more social which is amazing for me because I’ve been through so much that’s why I love this app and I really don’t care if I have one or not because this app really helped me in so many ways and also help me see the beauty of this world

I only joined recently, and enjoy seeing other people's photography and I like creating albums. I like the concept of getting $5 if someone purchases a picture of mine and the person who adds my pic to their album gets 25 cents & vice versa, however I am noticing from looking at others profiles that very few have their pictures sold-so quite disappointing. I have been on Twenty20 for about 2+ years and their contests are much easier to "win". I have 90 honors and have sold 11 photos. Not sure how devoted I will be to this site, but it fun for now.

I also hate that you cannot download photos onto the website- you can view your pics there and purchase but that is all. Most of my photos from my travels are on my laptop so saving them to my iPhone and then downloading is a pain! Twenty20 allows this-so much more seamless. Lastly, not sure if it has been fixed yet, but every single photo on the website under my rmaeb123 at the bottom says they were taken in Aruba!! We were there on a trip this past January, but I can assure you not all of my 100+ photos were taken there! I will check soon to see if they have fixed this bug.

I don’t really care for the challenges simply because I don’t do the kind of photos that have any chance in challenges since I do strangely unique photos so I have fun just posting him and joining the community in posts that’s it and I love it That’s all it is. It’s a Instagram but with more somewhat interesting photos and less memes, but there is so much junk photos that it’s actually getting boring to look through all the junk and find something good. I mean OK I am no master at this, but there are people that have just the most nonsensical junk that they take photos of. There are people that just take photos of their own face and put it up. Selfies belong on Instagram. I thought focus supposed to be something for serious photos. Not just junk.

I am struggling with getting starts on Foap. There is no overview given. The missions are the sure way to go - however I don’t know weather I can use the same photo in several missions or move them out of one mission and into another. If I can how do I do that? I was so frustrated on my first mission just trying to figure out if I had a limit on how many photos I could submit. I also don’t know the guidelines for tags so I put a bunch but have no idea if something will be taken down because a tag doesn’t match. I turned off notifications for most things but when I get a red notification button I can’t figure out what it’s for when I open the app… I’m so lost in this app!!! Lol. If I can figure out the kinks I know I’ll do well. I’ve getting 5 star ratings on my photos but I don’t know if that helps me get anywhere 🤷🏽‍♀️ also they don’t have a desktop version so I can’t import photos from my computer where I am doing all my edits. Eek.

I love the concept of this app very much and was so eager to participate. Unfortunately the app is very dysfunctional. There doesn’t seem to be any communication between screens and prompts. This app seems very rough rough rough draft. I’m actually surprised it was able to be launched. The support folks are very quick to respond to issues but solutions were not provided.
Several of the drop down menus were missing any scrolls and options to click. You have to enter personal information in order to post yet the fields to select your info are missing. You may create an account or sign up using Facebook. However, signing up with Facebook doesn’t auto fill any of your data as it should. Each field still remains blank. If the auto fill with Facebook sign up would have been working, that could have potentially bypassed the issues the blank drop down menus were causing in the sign up from scratch attempt.

Foap gets A+ for concept and communication but an F for functionality, intuition, design, and utility.

I’ve been on Foap for two years. And I feel like it’s been a complete waste of my time. I’ve sold two pics, which I’m ok with, I can’t make ppl buy my pics. I have 1500 followers which is also great BUT I feel like the missions show favoritism and I’m not given a fair shot.

I’ve always followed the rules and of course I don’t expect to win every time as there are amazing photographers on here but the fact that my pics shows the same content of other photographers and my pics don’t even get a chance to be selected to be put in the missions is completely unfair! I’ve submitted my model releases for a mission and posted pics pertaining to the mission but according to Foap it still has to be approved. What’s there left to approve? I’ve done everything I needed to do! I’ve submitted my model release and posted the same type of pics that other photographers have posted but I have yet to see my pics apart of the missions. So since I’m not going be given a fair chance to compete I will no longer waste my time ✌🏽

It has a great concept, BUT it’s not quite perfected. It’s sort of difficult to manage because there isn’t an easy way to purchase someone else’s photos - meaning that it’s hidden and I don’t see a “buy photo” option. App sometimes crashes and boots me out when I’m in the middle of submitting a picture of mine, then I’d have to redo my description and tags again, which is inconvenient. Another BIG FLAW I noticed was that other users ARE ABLE TO take a SCREENSHOT of YOUR picture and CROP OUT the Foap watermark on the bottom corner, which in fact defeats the purpose of the watermark because users can steal other people’s pictures without giving credit to or buying their work. The app should be programmed to turn the screenshot to a blank black screen to prevent others stealing pictures. Just like how other companies have done when you try to screenshot or screen record someone else’s property.

So I started using foap “Not expecting miracles” but I realize that they’re are so many photographers and even more photos so it’s a total competition. You are completely at the will of anonymous selection which is great don’t get me wrong but besides the actual interface of this app I noticed some bugs .. one being I get logged out and have trouble logging in, secondly when I can log into the app it appears that all the content and users etc don’t load properly. Last but not least when I recently try uploading a photo it tells me that there is no response and denies my photos. I guess I will wait a bit longer to see if my experience changes and if it doesn’t then I will be deleting my photos and uninstalling. P.s Goodluck to all of you who join!

You probably sign your rights away to anything you upload when you agree to all terms of service signing up, so don’t. Once set up, they have missions, where you upload a photo according to the theme…. And the winners are all chosen according to how many 5⭐️ votes the other users gave your work. Some people out there are willing to harshly critique everyone else's work, ESPECIALLY in contests for supposed cash value, to give themselves an edge. It happened. Then you go to the FAQ and contact section and many people are complaining they never received compensation, OR their photo was never featured as promised. Morally, we call this art theft. Foap calls this legal, considering the ToS you probably didn’t read. Nowadays you don’t see many comments and concerns in the FAQ section. At least not about money. I’m sure they invested all the cash they saved on compensating their users into new interns monitoring comments.

I have been patient when it comes to using this app, and unfortunately I’ve been growing more and more disappointed/frustrated. Since downloading the app and starting this service I have added photos to three different missions, none of which were approved. I added them many days in advance, one of which has already ended just recently. I had to endure almost an hour if not more of advertisements just in order to have access to a premium mission that days later wasn’t even approved. There has been absolutely no feedback as to why my work hasn’t been yet approved or even flat out disapproved. There’s absolutely nothing provided to help me understand what may have gone wrong. Nothing.
The missions seem to be the only real reason to use this service, otherwise I get better recognition (and pay) on Instagram. I’m not a bad photographer at all so that’s certainly not the excuse.
