Cool

Such a cool idea!!! Love this app. No more clutter and can turn my kids artwork into a hard cover book

Still needs some work

I like the idea behind this app but it still needs some work. The current version is cutting off the artwork showing a slightly zoomed in version. I cannot find a way to either zoom out or see it full screen so I can view the entire picture. You need to be able to view full screen to have best view point. Secondly you appear to have removed the ability to just assign a year or a month and a year. One of the pictures I had added on the previous version shows a date of Jan 1, 2014 as I had just wanted 2014. I also would like to see a higher resolution copy of the artwork. Some of them end up grainy looking. I do like the look of the new version. It looks brighter. It seems to be less glitchy with the sorting by child. And I love the multi picture import- big improvement there!

Initially impressed, now constant crashes

Fix the crashing!

Fix the crashes

Was a great app but now constantly crashing. It wont even let me sign in anymore.

Love this app!

I will use this app forever! Until my kids are old and grey!

Super App

It is a wonderful application who have children, easy to use

Not worth buying

They have a good idea, but dont execute it very well. Not a lot of options for gifts and its just a place to store these photos. Not worth buying. If it is a free app then yes or maybe 99 cents but not $5.

Great App but...

Concept is brilliant. Only problem is execution. It could be better by us being able to pick the order of our photos. Also, it would be better if you could select ALL photos at once to transfer to the book.

Disappointed

Disappointed that photos cannot be uploaded to Facebook. Basically I can take photos of my grandkids artwork , save it in a folder on my computer and share it myself with friends and family as well as upload to Facebook . I dont feel this app does much I cant do myself.

Amazing App

I love this app so much. I love my kids artwork but its so much! (I have 3 in preschool.) I love having everything organized and my kids love to show guests their books. I save some of the original pieces but dont feel bad recycling the rest since I have everything I books.

Wish it didnt crash so often

I would easily give this app 4 or 5 stars if it didnt crash all the time. It crashes on about every third picture I try to add on my iPhone 4s. Reinstalling didnt help. Too frustrating to try to use regularly. Otherwise, a very cool concept.

I love it.

I am able to take photos, notes, and date when I received or by year, or age. It is wonderful on cutting down and organizing all the artwork (keepers and the throwaways) I get for my two kids. I can do what my mom couldnt and show off what I want to show off. I love this app. Im excited to get the rest of the art and notes from teachers uploaded. This is very exciting also for another that has the desire to scrapbook for the kids. I will have digital copies of their artwork to incorporate into those albums. This mom of two is ecstatic that I found this app.

Wont save pics

Normally great but...now wont save art/schoolwork of my 2nd Grader :( please Help soon

Sorry kiddo, they arent all masterpieces

This gets rid of so much clutter!

Amazing!

This app has been incredible. Its a never ending fridge/art gallery! Highly recommend it!

I love Artkive!

Ive been using Artkive for probably more than a year now to save my childrens artwork and awards etc. I love it! I think it is a must-have for every parent of young children or even grandparents. Super simple to use and makes my life easier. Now I dont feel like I have to save every little thing my kids make and I dont feel bad for throwing anything away. I only save special things which cuts down on the clutter tremendously! I highly recommend Artkive. It was definitely created with parents in mind. Thank you!!!

First rate

Great idea, user friendly, great app support - its got it all.

Indispensable app!

I love love love Artkive. Im a busy working mum w two highly creative kids living on the other side of the planet to our family. Artkive helps me keep organized , filter through my kids work, record it and share it to keep our loved ones in the loop. When phone calls are hard- pictures say a thousand words . Thank you Artkive :)

Needs more options

I think this is a great idea for an app but I would like see more printing options. All that you can do is order a book, I would like to see collages and grid prints with lots of small pictures on one large print. Realistically, how often am I going to look through this book?! Id much rather display my kids artwork prominently.

Cant access share circle

My wife loaded hundreds of my three kids artwork. I cannot access them through the share circle. What a pain. Should have just took pics and done our own file management.
