Notification?

I have a notification with a 1 in a red circle but I have absolutely nothing in my messages. I tried deleting the app and redownloading it but its still there...

Bug

Well I have have been using deviantart for years I been having a problem on the Mobile app it says I have not submitted a devision yet and I actually have like 20 somthing Please fix and Ill give 5 stars

Nothing is appearing

Cant access my favorites or gallery. Please fix this soon.

Update the App!

The DeviantArt App itself is Good, But It Kind of Looks Like My Favorites, and My Gallery is Gone. Its Not Really Gone, Theyre Still There. I Want You to Update the App and Fix It.

Delete on app

Ok this app is amazing! But I would like for there to be less adds, less lag and a delete option. I accidentally made three of the same fanfic and cant delete it so my watches will have to bear! Please,please,please,please,please,PLEASE! Get the deletion option! And I will give it 4 stars

App alright

The app works alright if you just want to use it to know when you get messages and notes. It lags on typing sometimes, though, and doesnt tell you when someone you watch posts a devination. I understand not wanting it for all watches, but itd be nice if there was an option to be notified when perhaps some favs post, similar to the tumblr app, perhaps. Also, with comments, sometimes it takes a while for the phone to be notified, and occasionally never does, though the latter is rare. Lastly, itd be nice if we could see ALL comments. On some longer string of comments, like if they are doing a role play or just having a LONG conversation, the app just stops loading comments after a point. Its the same point as online, but the app has no way of counteracting this issue. The only option is to make it flat on a computer, which can also make it difficult to follow a conversation. Otherwise, the app works fine. Some issues, yes, but it still serves its purpose alright.

Not a good app needs to be fixed!!!

This app crashes to much and is really lagging on top of that the app doesnt let me see what I have favorited or what others have this needs to be fixed and then maybe the app will be better

Ok

I like this app but the only thing I would like if they let you use the same email in a account but other than that its okay

Having an issue

Whenever i go to a certain artists page, it doesnt show all of her work. Even when I clicked view all or featured it only shows the posts from sometime last summer and before that and none of her recent stuff. But when it is fine on the computer.

Pretty ok app, it does what it does, but oh my god I literally have no notifications Ive checked my notes and comments and everything 50 times but on my home screen IT KEEPS SHOWING THE LITTLE RED BUBBLE WITH THE 1 FOR A NOTIFICATION ITS DRIVING ME INSANE. Please,,, please do something...

Getting better but...

It still doesnt have the ability to play gifs! I would also love to be able to watch flash, but for now I would be happy with gifs...

Okay

The dA app is a really mixed bag. Its much more convenient than trying to bring up dA on a phone browser, very easy to upload photos straight to your gallery...but thats about it. Slow loading times, iffy controls, inability to delete notifications, glitches when editing the descriptions of submissions, no access to sta.sh or group pages, inability to properly view and edit profile pages, no commissions, that annoying "back" button that makes me feel like Im doing something wrong by going off the main page, bad advertisement quality, and overall clunkiness and complexity outright kill this apps potential (hint-fewer pop up screens please for uploads). This is good for an occasional scroll through daily deviations or the like if youre bored, an okay way to keep track of notes, and a good direct-from-phone picture uploader (if you have no other options) but other than that its not anywhere as good as it could be. I have been with dA for almost 4 years and as a long-time member, I believe that dA should constantly strive for a higher quality. This app has some rivers to cross before Ill use it regularly, but theyre not insurmountable. I eagerly await the day that this app is worthy of praise instead of complaints. tl;dr version-good for a few things but has a ways to go.

Functional but still flawed

The app does what its supposed to do in allowing you to browse the site but there could definitely be improvements to the logging system and general stability. As a personal edit, it feels necessary for the gui to be able to be in a landscape mode when desired.

Awkward, uncontrollable

Theres no way to get my animated gifs to hold & play at full iPhone6 screen size. Theyre viewable at only either fixed non-animated mini size or SUPERSIZED animated version with only parts of the image at a time seen on screen. They should just automatically open & play at full screen size as on almost every other app.

Crashing a lot

App is crashing a lot for me since todays update. Typically happens on watch page while scrolling.

Horrendously Unstable

This app ran extremely well when I got it on its initial release, even on a fifth-generation iPod touch. However, things started going sour with a late-2015 update, and from that point, the app had fallen into a basically unusable state on both my fifth-generation iPod touch, nor my more-powerful iPhone 5C. Its now March 2016, and DeviantArt, despite its simplicity in comparison to more resource-intensive movie-playback apps and graphically-advanced video games, is still by far the least usable app on my iOS devices, and theres no reason that a simple image-viewer such as this should be so prone to freezing and crashing.

Great app

I use this app every day! But one thing is that the folders dont show the right amount of deviations that are there sometimes. And on the app some things that arent marked mature on browser are marked mature on the app.

Certain app problems

Whenever I make a mistake and post a drawing, on the app it does not allow you to remove comments, photos or even edit the photo. I also submitted some drawings with the high quality setting on and the quality is horrible! There should be a mode to where you can turn your phone and it would give you good quality and the landscape style of your picture! I had to go into the actual website and edit some of my photos because of this. Please add more features that the website has!!

usable, not reliable.

its ugly, unintuitive, and slow. Needs to get polish and have an ad free version. this thing blows.

Not Enough Access

Not worth anything past being able to send and read notes, or send status updates. Does not give access to full notifications menu.
