Pixabay is an exceptional resource for anyone seeking high-quality images and videos. The website's vast collection encompasses a wide range of subjects, making it effortless to find the perfect visuals for various projects. The best part is that all content is available under a Creative Commons Zero (CC0) license, ensuring hassle-free and legal use. The user-friendly interface makes navigation a breeze, and the advanced search options enable precise filtering.

I love this App. Been using successfully for years. About 2 weeks ago I started having problems. I have a Samsung S10 and when I download a pic it's saying Success then a message saying 'download unsuccessful'. Always create work on the go via my mobile so upset. Contacted Samsung tech just now. Took nearly an hour but still unsuccessful at fixing problem so they told me to contact.

The sound quality is very clear and high, it is worth the time.

Stuck in a Google login loop like others on here. After login through Google I'm sent back to the login screen. Can not go back or forward. Shame because I love this app. Hope you guys will be able to fix this, because without being able to use hi-res images the app is useless to me. Edit 3: Its been over a month and still no response from the dev team or update on the app. With all due respect, ridiculous.

used to be a brilliant way to access the Pixabay website on a mobile device - but it has stopped working! it can't load any pics any more when you do a search. have contacted support twice - both times their response seemed to suggest that they weren't sure if or when they might be able to fix it. very disappointing as i used this app heaps previously and loved it. :-(

I've had to reduce my rating here, as something changed within the app where the ability to choose orientation preferences has disappeared. I can't remember if this is a problem on desktops, but on mobile phones, I don't understand why this would be removed, as being able to pick mobile (see: vertical) wallpapers would be logical.

Having logged in, and installed the app, I can no longer successfully search for a picture. All searches result in a 0 image result. My desktop PC shows otherwise for the same search. It's a shame that the only option is to be tied to the desktop pc, when a simple browse can turn into hours of imagery browsing and enjoyment. It would be handier to have that option while whiling away the minutes while waiting for a bus, and getting something useful done, when away from the office.

Was an amazing app that I really enjoyed - I'm a writer so I use a lot of pictures that I put words over from my book and post on social media and until recently, I had nothing but praise for it. But it will no longer load photos at all. Whether I'm on data or wifi, all my searches will show me how many photos are in that search and it shows me all the black boxes, but no pictures will load in. Will be uninstalling and move along to another app. Was a nice experience until now.

We're now FOUR MONTHS past when people started leaving reviews that the app was broken! It's incredibly sad that you can't take the time to correct this issue, as SO MANY people were using it for business purposes! When it first broke: I had JUST taught a class to 13 people on how to use it! Get it together! Unfortunately I'm going to have to delete your app, as it's worse than useless...it's taking up needed space. It WAS amazing, maybe I'll check back after New Year's to see if it's fixed...

This has been my go to app for unencumbered photos. I don't know what has happened, but in May of 2019 the app doesn't load on my phone.... MONTHS LATER: I kept the app on my phone until September of 2019 and it still fails to work. Unfortunately, the folks at Pixabay have failed to address their technical difficulties so I am forced to uninstall the app. I have no reason to keep an app on my phone that doesn't work.

Neither the Android or iPhone app work. Website works. However, Android app you can only browse and browse only lets you see the same 50 or so images - nothing loads beyond initial set. Search does not work (loading icon spins indefinitely), profile doesn't load anything, favorites cannot be recalled. It seems API must be broken for mobile apps.

Crashes within 20 seconds of opening, every time I try to use it. I have always loved this app and use it on my android phone to create social media content for the non-profit I work for. I have tried force stop and uninstalled multiple times but it still crashes. So frustrating and disappointing!

Great photos but the app stinks. Doesn't ever load any images when I use the search function. Sometimes it doesn't even recognize my login info. Browse photos works a third of the time. So if the app actually worked, I would give a 5 star. I love the images, free to the public, so I usually end up going directly to the web version.

No longer useful. Like so many others have indicated, this app used to be amazing then suddenly it stopped working. I'm willing to bet changes where made to the website code that broke the mobile app and the developers are unable to update the app for some reason. I have discovered that my favorites still load if you mark them in the web version, even new favorites (i.g. not just cached). I really hope this gets fixed, usually bugs like this are easy to fix.

I really love the app. It has amazing pictures amd is a great place to find pictures to use as references. My only issue is that recently, nothing has been loading while I am logged in. If I log out it still will not load, so i have to delete the app and redownload it. I have to continuously delete the app, redownload it, look for photos, log in, and then delete it again.

This app is easy to understand and use; and Really Great for all the graphics that it has for downloading. However, i give it Three Stars, because even though i've made sure that it has permission to access storage on my Samsung Galaxy Note9, the app keeps telling me that i have No pictures in my Smartphones gallery, so i can't upload any of the graphics i create.

Fantastic, totally FREE collection of FREE photos, graphics and illustrations. No credit card or payment required, ever. Just log in with your email address, search for your topic, download any size image and use it for free. No need to ask permission & photo credit is entirely optional (but still the right thing to do.) As a newspaper editor, it gives me graphics or images to "dress up" text-heavy articles. Various file sizes are available for each image, big enough for both print and web.

I really love the site, but the app has been pretty useless. Every time I attempt a search it just spins indefinitely and never gives any results. I would really love to use this on my device, but it has been a total waste of time. I've tried several times over months with no difference in results. Doesn't matter if I am on wi-fi or cellular network.

Will there be an update soon? Something is broken about this app. Even when I pick one of the pre selected subjects like animals, backgrounds, or buildings..... Nothing happens… just the spinning green circle in the middle of a black screen. Wifi does not help. I would imagine the developers are aware of this situation, since it's been like this for at least 2 weeks. Please give the much needed attention to the application. Fix that and I will gladly give it 5 stars.

Used to work fine but these last few months I can't get it to load any pictures. End up going in chrome to look at images from the website everytime. Edit (some weeks later): new phone, images load up but not able to use any filters except image orientation. Changing filters causes the app to bring up 0 results (of a previous search which yielded over 9,000 and no I'm not memeing here). Liking or saving an image causes the app to crash completely. Seems using chrome is still the best option.
