If I’m drawing on PC I use PureRef, if I’m drawing my my IPad I use VizRef. My one complaint is that there appear to be some consistent glitches, especially on larger or older galleries. Some pictures will turn invisible, still outlined if you highlight them, but with no way to make them visible again or photos will straight up delete themselves. It appears to be random which photos this happens too, but I wish if it was a memory error of some kind that maybe there was a cap in place to prevent me from going over what the app can handle if this isn’t something that can be fixed. -- Drop the SUB, 2024-12-15 ### ****- "Update the app" Please let us add text in the boards -- Nickiitumami, 2024-12-10 ### ***-- "Updates?" Are we going to get any updates for this? Its starting to crash on me. -- The Angel of reality, 2024-11-23 ### *---- "Works great!" 10/2024: Unfortunately this app seems to NOT export boards as it did before. It no longer indicates where it is saving the exported images and nothing shows up in the Apple Photo app. I had to resort to screen grabs which includes an unwanted background color. Also, no support link on their website. —x—————x——— Love the app and see how it will be useful while doing my own artwork. I also am an art director, working with artists and photographers, and would like to be able to export the board as a single JPEG to share with my project team members. I also agree, that having a back-up option would be a great add. -- Df765, 2024-10-28 ### ***-- "Please Add Features!" I like the app and it’s helpful but one of my boards is getting too big (and keeps crashing) so I need to move half of the images to another board and there’s a lot of them. But there’s no way to duplicate boards, or copy multiple pictures at once and then move them over to a different board. Please fix ;u; I can’t use how intended if it keeps crashing from my images but I can’t move them -- Teayerra, 2024-10-19 ### ***** "Perfect but" Like other user said it’s been a while from updates, just got the new iPad Pro m4 and the app seems working good so far but still I’ve notice some hiccups while using it along with procreate. A restart of the app fixes it but I feel I shouldn’t be the case with such powerful hardware. Anyways great app please keep it on shape. -- Legna6, 2024-10-13 ### ****- "Great! Just needs a little more." I’ve been using this app for years for my art references and I LOVE it! However it’s just missing a key feature that I think would take this app from great to perfect -an option to write/draw onto the board. I think adding some kind of translucent ‘’sticky note’’ situation where we can slot it over the photos we drop in for notes or adjustments without drawing ontop of the actual reference would make it so easy to keep all the information on the board. I don’t wanna have to keep drawing/writing on a separate program just to drop it back in Vizref. Thank you regardless for making this app for us artists and I hope you consider this suggestion!! 💕 -- DoodleCraftie, 2024-09-26 ### ****- "Necessary Art Tool (with some updates)" First, amazing apps. Routinely use it for traditional art when I need to build mood boards offline and reference work. Only dislike is having to pay separate for iPhone variant. Wish the app had the ability to insert notes or captions with images or on boards. -- --marc09, 2024-09-02 ### *---- "Lack of Updates" With the lack of updates it’s getting harder and harder to recommend this app. Bugs keep piling up an nothing’s get fixed, it was good while it lasted. -- poughsicle, 2024-08-30 ### ***** "Simple but great interface for artists!" I’ve been using VizRef for a couple of years now and realized I never wrote a review! It’s a simple program that is great for my needs. Whenever I draw and need multiple references that don’t clutter up my canvas, I simply drop them into this app and use split screen to view it simultaneously to my drawing. It’s great! -- Loriecona, 2024-08-30 ### *---- "Doesn’t work" Purchased a week ago - doesn’t work with the new IPad. Refund please? -- Unique id dlynnc 0087654321, 2024-08-26 ### **--- "App Crashed, Unable to Retrieve Board" This app needs to be updated. I created a reference board filled with hundreds of pictures to be used for projects, and now every time I try to open that board it crashes the app. This problem is mentioned in several other reviews. I’m looking for an alternative because this app is unreliable. -- Kyle 513, 2024-07-25 ### ****- "amazing!! BUT…" This app is great for many reasons: -Simple interface -can multitask with other apps -Great for collage, reference, artists. BUT here’s the only problem. You CANT add TEXT or DRAW anything!! I get it’s not like other apps such as milanote where it’s more text based. But I think even just the simple feature to add text would be the best possible update. -- kkkkaaayyylllaaa, 2024-07-13 ### ****- "one major setback" genuinely would be perfect if it had a drawing tool. total gamechanger -- Ally.abernethy, 2024-07-08 ### ****- "Great app, getting slower" Update July 2024: No updates for 3 years. I wish the developer would keep refining the app. I’ve just upgraded to an M4 iPad Pro, and the app still works, but gifs play back at double speed or more, making them harder to work with. Still hoping for the ability to flip and rotate gifs like we can with still images. ——- I’ve been using VizRef since it came out, and it’s become integral to my art workflow. So well-designed and useful! Unfortunately I find that some of my reference galleries become slower and slower to work with over time, and can take up to 8 seconds to fully open and display. I thought the problem might be simply the volume of images (240) but then I exported all those images and added them to a new gallery, and the new gallery opened twice as fast. This procedure is not a good workaround, though, because it loses all the placement, scale, rotation, and cropping that I’ve done. It would be great if VizRef allowed the user to duplicate a gallery, which would make it easy to split up a big gallery into smaller galleries. I would also like to see support for copy-pasting multiple images at a time. Currently it will only paste one image at a time, which is impractical for moving photos between galleries. I’m hoping the developer can find more ways to optimize existing galleries, and/or make it easier to duplicate and move images between galleries, preserving settings! Also: still hoping for the ability to flip and rotate gifs… -- vnavone, 2024-07-04 ### ****- "Great App but here are some things I feel would be even better" I usually don’t write reviews for apps. But as a illustrator this has been helpful for my character design projects. But there’s a few things I would recommend to make it even better!: - being able to select multiple images in the app to move, resize or delete . (Usually I start off with a collection of photos but overtime I remove/add more images and I have to resize them one by one which makes it tedious sometimes) - a pen tool would be nice to make markings on reference photos or make certain notes beside it - customize the background different colors! -- Pandapopplayer101, 2024-06-15 ### ***** "Fantastic" This app is great! I’ve had it for years now and use it all the time as an artist gathering reference for projects and commissions. It’s a one time cost that’s absolutely worth it. There’s other apps that can do similar things like Freeform and Goodnotes where you can annotate and do more which can be nice but even with using those apps I still find myself coming back to VizRef for simple inspiration/reference collecting. It also cleanly split screens with pretty much every app but most importantly Procreate and Safari are what I use it with the most. Highly recommended! -- Danielle_S, 2024-06-09 ### ***** "Only missing ONE THINGGGG.😁" 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.😁 -- Javon H, 2024-05-16 ### ***-- "VizRef < Freeform" *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. -- Mari’s Phone, 2024-05-11 ### ***** "thank you" 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 -- shitboycolor, 2024-05-01 [View all VizRef reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://apptail.io/de/account/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Apps Similar to VizRef -
