VizRef

It is a great app for me to grab references on the go, but it would be perfect if there was a direct way to open my files in pure ref in the pc.

To be a perfect App it should be possible to put grids over de image. For many artists grids offer a great way to use reference images.

It's a great tool, I've been looking for something like this for some time. There is only one thing missing. It should be possible to select and organize all the images at once. It is a bit annoying to have to move one image at a time.

I spent months looking for something that would do the same job as PureRef on the PC, and VizRef is just the tool for the job on iPad!

As an illustrator and animator I find this app essential to many artists out there. Not only is it great to gather references but its also very useful to study frame by frame animation and create moodboards. I find it perfect as it is, but if I were to ask for more a 3D model feature would be very welcome! Also the ability to add text (so we can note down things in addition to the visuals) would be nice too. If you work with procreate often definitely give this a try!

I have been wanting to come back to this program but the only thing missing for me is a “note’” feature. I work on comics and love to have a organization amongst my photos. This helps me put. The right art, with the corrects ark, or story beats. Honestly this app is amazing, but that one feature would make it amazing! A app called purref has it but since I moved to iPad and they don’t have a iPad app, this app could sweep the game! Anyway keep rocking away, and be sure to see about adding in the ability to leave notes on the canvas.😁

*Pros: -Supports dark mode -Simple interface *Cons: -Compresses images, poor resolution -Can’t sync across devices -No organization features (i.e. moving between boards, tags, or captions) -Can’t Copy+paste multiple images **Comments & Suggestions** I regretted paying for VizRef when I realized that it’s just a simpler version of Freeform. I’m continuing to use VizRef for now because I already put so much time into making the boards, but will switch to Freeform once it supports Dark mode. To make this app more useful, PLEASE add some organizational features to allow easy movement of multiple images between boards within the app, or at least the ability to merge existing boards. I got this app to reduce clutter in my camera roll and files. I don’t want to have to export pics from a board just to import them into another and then have to take the extra step of deleting the files from wherever I exported them to. Also, no matter what I’ve tried, I haven’t been able to get the images to maintain their resolution when importing. Some import methods are worse than others. This has been beyond frustrating, since I rely on image quality to see the fine details in my references.

this let me turn my ipad into the art workstation i needed. i never thought id find anything more intuitive than what ive been doing for over ten years (turning on my pc, opening images one by one and copying them all into one file in an art program,haha). im so excited to use this

ok so i got this recommended to me by a friend and i had some extra money from an itunes gift card, so i paid the small fee and got the app. and i love it!! i haven’t had any issues with exporting or adding pictures or anything like that. what i would like to say is that i tried milanote, and love that too. i think this app could genuinely be next level if you added the option to write notes or maybe even draw over the image boards. it would be so helpful to write down notes for my visual aids instead of relying solely on images. milanote is out of my price range ( its monthly subscription ) so i’m glad i can stay loyal to this app but i wanted to write a review so hopefully someone on the team can see this 🙏🙏 pls visref devs i beg of you to add a note taking feature i would be so happy

I would rate this higher if the app didn’t charge anything, but it’s nice that it’s not subscription-based! I liked this app initially, it helped clear out my photo album and the image quality isn’t affected much when uploaded. But, I noticed a huge problem w photos getting lost whenever I loaded a board, especially one w a lot of images on it. Sometimes they’d re-upload if I restarted the app, but then another group of images would get lost in their place. The app also crashes sometimes and loses images after, but it’s not very often. The app hasn’t been updated for 2 yrs still, but I’d rly love to see these in the app as well: multi-selection w/in a board would be great to help better organize different references, text box/ sticky notes option, greater range for image rotation, basic drawing pen feature similar to the annotation option in the iPhone photos/ notes app. Any other features that could help enhance mind-mapping in the app would be perfect.
