500px Android app is here!

Published by Evgeny Tchebotarev · April 19th 2012

Today 500px launches the official Android app for tablets and phones.

The Android app has been in the works for the last few months, and we are now happy to announce that it's here — and available immediately on Google Play, and is coming shortly to Kindle App Store and GetJar App Store.

The app takes cues from our iPad app, which has been praised by its minimalistic and beautiful interface and focus on large, beautiful photos. Now, everyone can enjoy large and beautiful photos on their Android devices.

The app is compatible with both tablets and phones and works with Android OS 2.2 and later. It brings initial iPad functionality:

• Browse Popular, Editors' Choice, Upcoming and Fresh. Photos change in real-time, so come back often for a fresh dose of inspiration
• Filter by categories (tap and hold the icons on the left)
• Full search
• View beautiful, full size photos without distractions
• Login or sign up for a 500px account to see your photos, friends' photos and your favorites
• Vote for photos, add to favorites, read and post comments
• View photo descriptions, EXIF information and location
• Share photos on Twitter, Facebook or see them in browser
• View a slideshow of every photo stream

You can create an account from within the app or login to your existing one. If you log in with Facebook, simply visit your Settings and set a password, and you will be able to login with your username and password.

The app is free, and available immediately on Google Play.

I signed up through my Facebook account, so before launching the Android app I created a password under "settings". But I can't login with username or e-mail and this newly set password. I get the following error message: "Sorry! We experienced a problem logging in. Please try again." :(

Guys, are there any plans to upgrade the iPad app to support the retina display?

I just read your eMail and downloaded the app - I love it. It looks really great and it's the best photo app in the market.

Dave Dugal about 1 year ago

The native 500px app has taken the best from several other UI's to create a remarkably useable and intuitive photo browsing app. Kudos!

There are minor rough edges that I'm sure will be fixed over time. Where would you suggest we submit bug reports and feature requests?

Looks and works great on my Galaxy Note and Galaxy Tab 10.1. You all should consider porting it to the BlackBerry PlayBook as well since it runs Android apps and is so easy to do. Only takes a few minutes and you could have a whole new audience. The app looks and works great on it as well, see here: http://t.co/dc7xvA6e.
