ShotDeck

I use ShotDeck on my laptop and find it very helpful. However, the app never works for me. The search engine never works and it makes the app somewhat useless. Very much looking forward to an update where this is fixed.

I’m frustrated. Just burned 2hrs saving images to a deck within the app and they’re….. not in the deck. The app is crashing repeatedly. It’s just simply not stable. Guys, I love the service. Have been subscribed for years now, but on location with an iPad and the app is not cutting it. It has a good framework/layout but there are several bugs that are really making the usability suffer. Please work out the kinks and give us an stable App version of your archive. It could be so good! 😫

While ShotDeck is probably one of the most comprehensive and easy to navigate shot libraries and I can appreciate that the subscription model isn’t the same as other predatory models that require you to put in your card and charge you without warning, the price for the actual subscription is absurd. After my free trial ended I considered paying for the full thing since I really liked the program and expected the price to be reasonable but was shocked to find out I either have to spend $100 a year for the yearly subscription or $13 a month for the monthly subscription, I have subscriptions to streaming services that are less than half of that price. While, yes, certain functions such as the search function or color palette are very useful I don’t see any worth in paying $13 a month for them when there are website where I can find high quality movie screencaps *for free*. The cost here is just plain disappointing.

I love shotdeck, but I have a MAJOR complaint that makes the app pretty much useless for me. You can’t use split screen or a floating window with the app on the iPad. I often use the website on safari with split screen while I draw in another app, but the shotdeck app only supports full screen. Apps shouldn’t have LESS functionality than a mobile website. What’s the point?

I’ve been looking at this application for sometime and tried to download it only to find out that it was a hefty subscription based app from a co in California. it’s nothing more than just standard stock library photo screenshots taken from films compiled into a library with a few Ui controls. I’m not buying into that when I can do my own research. This is such a rip off.

Not only is the app extremely user-friendly and comprehensive, but it’s just very well designed and sleek. I LOVE being able to change the thumbnail size while browsing and selecting and adding multiple images to a deck while browsing. Sometimes I need to find something quickly and sometimes it’s a more casual browse so I like being able to switch between these. Understandably there are some issues that need to be addressed: 1) periodic crashing (typically when choosing to browse similar shots) and 2) the quick add doesn’t seem to work yet. But overall very happy and ya’ll deserve 5 stars.

This is a great app for filmmaking research, making pitch decks, creative inspiration, designs, everything!! Love it!

Incredible UI interface for both iPad and iPhone - been using the Decks feature a lot and really impressed with what the team managed to transfer from desktop to mobile here! My new Instagram!!!

Love shot deck and this app! Wished there was a faster way to add shot to a favorites but overall it’s a great app!

Just as useful as the already amazing site <3
