Ratings and reviews

I like being able to access photos through the app, but the facial recognition feature is not very accurate. My daughter wears glasses, and while some of her photos were recognized, half of the photos tagged for her through the recognition were different campers that were wearing glasses. The shape of the glasses was not even the same for all, the face shapes and fullness, hair color, length, texture and style were different, the skin tone was different, and both boys and girls with glasses were tagged as my camper. So I am not even sure what parameters the facial recognition utilizes because there were no obvious similarities between any of the campers that were incorrectly tagged as my daughter. I still plan to use the app but will turn off facial recognition.

Good feature is face recognition that will tag the photo for you. Bad is that is has logged me out 3-4 times and didn't recognize my existing information. I was looking at pictures and sharing and the return to a login page popped up when I came back.Then I had to contact camp to keep resetting. It asks for security questions but then never used that option to help me log in again. There should be a way to look at pictures and then continue where you looked at instead of having to start over.

I love the idea but it appears this app doesn't work on Android. I have copied and pasted my password five times and it hasn't worked yet. Meanwhile, my wife's iPhone seems to work properly. I hope this gets fixed! Update on 7/5/19: it works now. Hope it will continue as the premise is a winner!
