What people say
Real reviews, each linked to its source.
“Honcho has been the most exciting addition to our offering this year. Being able to make photos available instantly has been a huge hit with our clients. The built-in stats clearly show the uptake—and at awards events, it’s massive. People get their photos straight away, and they love it.”
“After years of searching, I finally found the perfect way to share my marathon photos. I’m especially loving the notifications feature that lets participants know when new photos of them are found with face recognition.”
“Using Honcho has been a game-changer for us. It allowed us to introduce face recognition into our workflow and has been especially valuable during large sporting events, where it's nearly impossible for participants to browse through hundreds of photos. With Honcho, they can quickly find their pictures with a simple selfie.”
“A public App Store review complains that deleting uploaded photos required deleting each photo one by one and asks for clearer auto-publish settings. This is included as review context, not as an aggregate verdict.”
“The Knot currently lists WeddingMix by Storymix Media at 4.6 out of 5 from 574 reviews.”
“Apple App Store currently lists the WeddingMix app at 4.5 out of 5 from 84 ratings.”
“A visible App Store reviewer said they found WeddingMix affordable, received cameras before the wedding, and were thrilled with the final video.”
“A visible critical App Store reviewer said they had to follow up at many stages and waited almost a year for the final video.”
