It's nice, good work. I wonder if you might be better off without the ads though. Not much revenue, and without them you can possibly build a bigger user base as a reputation point for your resume.

#13my favorite bot in this gene is on twitter: https://twitter.com/lowpolybot
Took a look at what it was doing, but recently it seems to mostly be engaged in ongoing conversations with other bots spitting out nonsense images.

#14Crashes constantly using a google galaxy Nexus. I would love to have it work though.

#15I am surprised nothing showed up on the mac app store for "low poly art"
I would pay for such an app.

I'll be looking into it. Similar topic: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8967391 .

#17I'm getting a force close when trying to choose a picture on a Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II. I have no experience with android development and don't know how the force close reports work, but one was sent and I hope you can figure out the bug.
Really looking forward to trying this out! Will be great for wallpapers.

#18Why did you decide to make this mobile only? Personally I would use it the most from my computer, considered a port ;)
I'll be happy to make a desktop version if users want it. Comment here, reply to this tweet ( https://twitter.com/polygenapp/status/560846810735206400 ) or let me know in any way if you're interested. Edit - And as for "why mobile-first", I wanted to make the app casual and approachable. You can take a photo of your teacup and have a cool low poly version of it in an instant. Or generate a pretty colourful wallpaper…
My upvote on this comment is my indication that I'm interested in the computer version. :)

I'll be looking into it. In the meantime you might experiment with a different camera (pick "System" in the "Camera & Gallery" option). And many thanks for your comment.
