Join one of the largest photo and multimedia communities in the world! Commons is not only the image repository for Wikipedia, but an independent project that seeks to document the world with photos, videos and recordings.

The Wikimedia Commons app is an open-source app created and maintained by grantees and volunteers of the Wikimedia community to allow the Wikimedia community to contribute content to Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia Commons, along with the other Wikimedia projects, is hosted by the Wikimedia Foundation. The Wikimedia Foundation is pleased to support community developers by offering the app here, but the Foundation did not create and does not maintain this app. For more information about the app, including its privacy policy, see the information at the bottom of this page. For information about the Wikimedia Foundation, visit us at wikimediafoundation.org.

Features:
- Upload photos to Commons directly from your smartphone
- Categorize your photos to make them easier for other people to find
- Categories are automatically suggested based on photo location data and title
- View nearby missing images - this helps Wikipedia to have images for all articles, and you will discover beautiful places close to you
- View all the contributions you have made to Commons in one gallery

Using the app is easy:
- Install
- Log in to your Wikimedia account (if you don't have an account, create one for free at this step)
- Select 'From Gallery' (or the picture icon)
- Select the picture that you wish to upload to Commons
- Enter a title and description for the picture
- Select the license that you wish to release your picture under
- Enter as many relevant categories as possible
- Press Save

The following guidelines will help you to understand what photos the community is looking for: 
✓ Photos that document the world around you - famous people, political events, festivals, monuments, landscapes, natural objects and animals, food, architecture, etc
✓ Photos of notable objects that you find in the Nearby List in the app
✖ Copyrighted pictures
✖ Photos of you or your friends. But if you are documenting an event it doesn't matter if they are in the picture
✖ Photos of poor quality. Make sure the things you are trying to document are visible on the picture

    I loaded hundreds of pic with this but it became unreliable. But it's fixed and better than ever. It makes a good choice of creating file titles, descriptions and categories and it's wikidata aware. much More than I expected. I like that it remembers your recent choices and saves a lot of retyping. .... Six stars when you can edit existing pics on wiki commons so that you can link them to wikidata.

    The app is fantastic for finding many great pieces of art. Bug: the author section shows the span tags Feature request: ability to select text so that it can be searched Feature request: bulk select and download media images following a search

    When making account, it doesn't mention first that these usernames are taken (which I put in the box). Then I fill all the boxes when submit then it says that the username is in use. Then it says fill all the boxes. I had to repeat all the process 5 times and couldn't make an account. Now I am deleting this app.

    Peer review system needs working upon 1st - image cannot be selected or zoomed in on. 2nd caption text obscures image making it difficult to identify any identifying features. 3rd - introduce reverse image search in the app, so images can be properly identified for copyright violations.

    I really like the idea and want to use the app, but it is unfortunately very unstable. In the past I had issues with uploading and losing data (so I had to fill again), nowadays I can't click "nearby" without the app crashing. If you can use it, I recommend it, but test a while before spending too much time filling data, just in case.

    The app crashes each time you try to upload a picture. I have tried both from Gallery and from the app and each time the app crashes. This is very frustrating. Reading earlier reviews one gets to know that this is a recurring issue a d still hasn't been rectified. Very disappointing, indeed.

    Being able to upload photos to Wikimedia Commmons from my phone makes all the difference. I take most of my photos with my cellphone's camera and, somewhat embarrassingly, the extra step of transferring them to my computer has been a hurdle in uploading. A rapidly improving app with a hard-working development team.
