Pros and cons of Van Gogh HD app for iPhone and iPad

Van Gogh HD app good for

Beautifully designed, comprehensive and stable. Excellent reference!
Hello Overdamped, youre doing a great work, i love your apps about the painters, really good. Will you do Bacon Soon ????
Well, the idea is very good, but colors of some images are too poor.
I like impressionists paintings, and found this Van Gogh gallery is the best of all i found for ipad. The possibility to overview almost all paintings of Van Gogh in your kitchen, while travelling by train or virtuaaly visit a galery with your friend is great! It doesnt replace real galleries, but real galleries doesnt replace this. (no galery has all his paintings) My summary: pros: - 1$ only; - fine navigation; - bookmarks (i use it like favorites); - easy and fine interaction with e-mail and iphotos (easy to export or sent what you like to your friend); - contains more information about painting that other apps; - contains much more paintings that other apps; cons: - sometimes it shuts down (havent yet fixed where and when); - "letter to theo" are very hard to read (for me personally), wish to see its content in text coming with images; - some paintings (2-4%) are not contrast like it is made with mobile phone; Resume: beautiful application, i strongly recommend to anyone who doesnt hate impressionists, instead it has minor bugs.
Hi guys , i have buy this and monet app, great app and perfect idea. Now i have a critic infact i think that in main page of this app is necessary a buttom for a link a wikipedia for the story of the life of the artist or a test that explain about it. Regards Roberto
I like this app a lot. The interface is excellent and the quality of the pictures is very good. I like the link to Wikipedia for more information. That said, I hope the developer will do some fact checking and correct the catalogue a bit. The most glaring example is The Starry Night, which was done at Saint Remy, not Arles.

Some bad moments

Same developer a Picasso HD. Be careful! Dont update this app if you buy it. I had this and the Picasso HD app. The Picasso app was deleted from my iPad when I updated! Complain to Apple if this happens to you. They should not allow automatic deletion of purchased apps. Its not the .99, its the principle. Great app though!
Theres nothing wrong with this app. The image quality is good, and who can complain about Van Gogh... But it isnt worth 99 cents when the app Art Authority costs a few dollars more and includes hundreds more images by Van Gogh, as well as tens of thousands of images by DaVinci, Rembrandt, Picasso, Dali, and hundreds of other artists from every time period of art history. The interface of Art Authority smokes this app too. Spend a couple of dollars more and get a better app with a thousand times more incredible images.
Just purchased. Crashes very time i try to swipe to next picture.
This new upgrade has no pics in the self portrait section and the letters to Theo section is empty as well.
99 percent of the time I get a "No Image". Where is the artwork and how do I get a refund!
Terrible. Just terrible. How did you get away with calling it HD?
