This app's okay, but I uninstalled it because its search function is worse than the web version and I have trouble accessing actual pages that aren't images.

I had contributed to Wikimedia Commons via uploading 1000s of high-quality, in color, and exclusive images using my professional Nikon camera gear. I have seen that some of my images on this app display my name (author) but when I click on them, another page of a different contributor/userpage appears. Why? This creates a confusion about the intellectual property rights (misleading information). Should be corrected as soon as possible. I stopped contributing to Wikipedia & Wikimedia Commons.

No option to rotation or cropping. Tect over lay obscures the image and makes it difficult to read any texts or details of the image, some times the categories dont appear. 50% of the time the upload doesn't happen and no reason is displayed. If the user changes the app while upload is happening 100% failure of uploads. Please fix the bugs. App not detecting geo location of the photos taken with mobiles. Shows something else instead

I would love to contribute with Wikimedia Commons but this app is unusable: interface is confusing, does not support HEIF, fails to upload pictures without saying the reason, nonsense category and classification suggestions... I have no idea what to do with the map points...

Very cool idea. Useful for people who like to upload photos to Wikimedia Commons and be helpful to the project. Small bugs: Upload always fails the first time, "Tap to view" in push notifications doesn't work (no response). Can't edit Depictions or remove a Category after submitting?

I really need some help with this. Is there a way to access your app favorites from your website account that you access via your laptop. In other words, I've used the app to favorite a whole heap of pictures. How do I access those favorites from my laptop? Is there a way? I've spent a good couple of hours trying to find an answer online. Other than that, really enjoying the app!!!

I loaded hundreds of pic with this but it became unreliable some years ago. It's fixed and better than ever. It makes a good choice of creating file titles, descriptions and categories and it's wikidata aware. much More than I expected. I like that it remembers your recent choices and saves a lot of retyping. .... Six stars when you can choose existing pics on wiki commons to add to a location so that you can add missing pics to wikidata monuments and buildings.

Pretty much has been put in developing the App. The UI/UX is okay however, the performance of the App is where I find amusing. I was able to upload few images at first time of trying. Weeks down the line I can't upload images anymore. I had to use the web version to upload my images.
