Quite a unique app. You can find photos people upload randomly and then bid on it (aka "stake") to get rights over it. Like NFTs. Does have its cons tho, which is not being able to change or delete anything once a photo is uploaded. You can't even change your pfp once set in the app. If you like collecting NFTs or are just interested in other people's lives, yeah this app would be pretty good.

This is an app that lets ppl snap what they see at the moment. It cld be a bday party, or a car crash. It's simple. Just take a pic, a quick video, or write something that's going on. I'm so sick of social media expecting us to act like dancing monkeys so that they can make money off us. Changing the rules, telling us what we cant post. This is the beginning of something promising. It gives humanity a platform to report to each other about what is going on. at the moment. Congrats to the dev!

Best mind-altering app around. Timed & tested. What you think is reality, is actually NOT! #FreeWill #GreaterMinds #PrivacyEye

Hi my username is Angel, from Nigeria. Ever since I created an account on collective memory it has been a sweet experience plus the app is a user-friendly and well secured. Kudos to the brains behind this innovation. Although my journey has been smooth I suffer a challenge on login my profile when it's on live. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling to fix it but no positive result. To the collective memory support team kindly fix my issue I mentioned. Thank you and good luck

The idea of the app is very cool, but I am unsure about the execution. The app is buggy, disconnects a lot, and sometimes has an issue with uploading media or deleting it all together. (at least from my experience). I tried the cashout function from the app, but it just does nothing. Says I have no balance for some reason. Hope this gets fixed soon. When you upload photos/videos it drops the quality and saturation of the media making it look pale and gray. And you can't change your profile pic.

On Android, this app hangs a lot and runs really slow. I even checked it on another Android phone, but it still hangs

★☆☆☆☆ Sheila Mae · May 16, 2025

It doesn't provide the option to change your profile picture or delete your account and data after you're done with the app.

★☆☆☆☆ Kate Vasileva · Jul 30, 2026

SCAM! They steal your earnings! I made a lot of money via photo uploads and staking. But they suddenly changed the rules RETROACTIVELY. Now they claim all past work is invalid and "violates new rules" just to avoid paying out. Total scam economy. They let you earn, then rewrite the terms backwards, so they don't have to cash you out. Do not waste your time and data on these scammers. They will rob you!

★☆☆☆☆ Harshit Kumar · May 17, 2025

I took the pfp photo thinking it was there for a quick scan, so I took it, and now I can't change it. What the hell? Why can't you give a simple option to alter the profile picture? I need to remove my pfp, please help ASAP. And I want to explore the app, but this thing is making me too much conscious because I don't like the pfp I had already. I will change the review rating once you help me out.

Beware: This app doesn't allow post deletion or changing profile pictures, once uploaded it's uploaded.
