Still not fixed

App still crashes constantly when trying to view favorited artwork.

I love it

Its my first time in the app and its great I love it!

Ads!

Ads are still here. Disgusting. Why did you lie to us all? Ads are not "bug fixes". And adding ads to multiple page images is also not "bug fixes".

Love it!

And having the subscription isnt all that expensive.

Please remove ads

I agreed a lot of users for those who dont like ads. Just simply remove it.

Ads are Not the Problem, the Bugs are

The ads are not the major issue here. I dont get why people complain about these blocking the image. The ad doesnt even do much of a difference on how you see the picture and there are WAY more major problems than the advertisements. The website may be great, but the app itself is not. There are way too many bugs like the lag and the glitches. Usually, when giving a rating or bookmarking the illustration, it will start lagging and saying that it has failed to do the given action. Its terribly annoying and I truly hope Pixiv could fix these bugs. To add, even though this is only the mobile version of the website, Im hoping for some more functions to be added that you could do on the website. Ex. Number of score you give to the image. UI is ok and the translations are good. But I am really only keeping this app since it provides a more mobile way to go on Pixiv. It just needs more, thats all.

Unable to log into my account via app

Able to log in without issue on Safari, but using the correct information in the app tells me that my email or password are incorrect. Heavily bugged and unusable.

Review

Tbh I think this app is pretty decent

This is the life.

Love this Pixiv app! Its so organized and overall very clean and pretty-looking. The fact that there are small ads on the bottom edge of the app hardly bothers me at all. It runs very smoothly even on iOS 7 (I know, an artifact from ancient times...) and I am able to find pretty much exactly the kind of fan art/fan comics that I want by searching up any fandoms tags (in Japanese) with my trusty romaji keyboard (´。✪ω✪。`) What I like about Pixiv in general is the ability to follow your favorite artists and bookmark your favorite works so you can always read them again

No Messenger nor anything...

I swear that Pixiv is being somewhat careless for their app...

Awesome App

Pixiv made a great app for users, great for saving awesome pictures and photos of Anime related content. Love the app 10/10.

Advertisements, bugs, missing features

-Advertisements were suddenly added in as "bug fixes" -Ads would have been "OK" if hidden when viewing images, but Pixiv is very greedy -There is a giant amount of white space on the sides of the ads to make it even worse (done on purpose) Apart from ads, -Most website features arent on the app, like recommended users, user feed, related pictures, etc. -Most Pixiv premium features from the website arent on the app -Some of the UI doesnt make sense, like the switched placement of score and views -You cant see who a comment is a reply to -The giant Open button ruins works with multiple images. It is annoying and looks bad. It should be replaced with small arrows at the bottom of the image that go through the pages instead of taking us to an entirely separate page -Very few Pixiv spotlights appear on the app. There is no reason or excuse for that. And the BEST ONES NEVER APPEAR ON THE APP -Favorites sometimes disappear -Sometimes the wrong image is favorited -There is no way to select multiple favorites -Actions always fail, "Follow failed" "favorite failed" "remove failed" etc. -A lot of other things... It would be nice to get the whitecube redesign for mobile too. Maybe if you redo the app like the website, you can do it right this time. Also not sure what all these bug fix updates are. All the bugs I encounter are still there. Probably stealth adding more advertisements.

Good, but Needs Improvements

I love being able to view my favorite art anytime, but being a stickler for organization, its upsetting that I cant tag my favorites straight from the app. Itd be nice to not have to open the desktop site in a separate browser every time I go to favorite something.

Pretty handy

Could use a means of seeing your my pixiv messages, though.

Good

This is a very good app, the only problem that I have with it so far is that I cant read any of the text on the settings part because it is in a foreign language. Itll help me to have a settings that I can both read and understand

Almost perfect

This app is great. I dont need to open my laptop to use Pixiv anymore. Images load fast, everything is so easy to use...theres just one problem. The app refreshes itself too often for my liking. By that I mean that if i jump to my browser from Pixiv, I can almost guarantee the app will take me back to its home-screen when I jump back. Which means I lose whatever artist page i was on and I have to go looking for it again. None of my other apps seem to refresh as soon as this one. Not a huge problem, though. It just bugs me sometimes.

Great Art Browser App

I like this app a lot. Biggest complaint is mostly just the fact there is a "premium" version with better features but they have to make money, so I cant really fault that. Still get enough features for free that the app is extremely useful for browsing, collecting or discovering new art! Just have to be careful not to click on the annoying ads.

Its Good

Its very good and we have multiple features.
