Question Ranking
Pros
Pro Auto-sync
Photos in the library can be automatically uploaded to Flikr, which enhances the usefulness of the free TB they give all users.
Pro Provides 1TB of free space
Any user can store 1000GB of photos or videos completely for free. Strangely, the cost for 2 TB is $499 per year.
Pro Provides photo meta-data
Users can see lots of info on each picture including: shutter speed, camera and lens model, category tags, license info, aperture, and location.
Pro Narrows photos by category
While traveling or just exploring, users can see photos taken in the area based on what they want to see.
Pro Displays distance from where each photo was taken
While exploring different pictures, it's easy to see how far away the picture was taken. This makes it easy to see potential exploration opportunities based on distance.
Pro Useful descriptions
Instead of seeing captions like "Finally Friday!", this app encourages users to enter useful information (like tips or other narrative) about where the photo was taken.
Cons
Con Low quality in-app camera
The in-app camera is lower quality than standard camera apps, so it's better to take a photo normally and then import it into Flikr.
Con Unstable uploads
Trover is great for browsing, but uploading from a mobile device isn't very reliable. For uploading, the desktop version is much better.
