Edit: Thanks for replying and for telling me where to look. I would say that it isn't the most intuitive. First, the default app value (new users) for "Reported" should be set to something like "All" or "Current season". Or at tbe very least, you could add a message when there are no results to ask the user to cnange the filters. Then, for the "Closest" view, they're not sorted by date at all; there should be a view that combines the perks of "Closest" and "Latest", maybe by defining a radius.

You had me intrigued right up until my location is not supported. Let mt tag where I actually took the photo and I will give it another look.

I love the idea of this app, it would be amazing if it supported my location. Unfortunately, none of the info was correct for my area.
