Every review app in this comparison can collect a customer photo. The real differences sit around the upload: which plan includes video, whether a photo or video review can earn a bigger reward than a text one, whether the app asks again when a review arrives without media, and where that media ends up, on your store and beyond it. This guide compares the main Shopify apps using their Shopify App Store listings as of October 16, 2026, then walks through how Quoli handles each step.
How review apps compare on customer media

| Quoli | Photos on every plan, video on Starter and up | Starter and up | UGC Ads, Growth and up | $10 a month |
| Judgeme | Free plan | Awesome plan | Social media push, Awesome plan | $15 a month |
| Loox | Photos on Free, video on Convert | Free plan | Social posts and stories, Free plan | $49.99 a month |
| Okendo | Listed | Free plan | Not listed | $19 a month |
| Yotpo | Starter plan | Not listed | Social media UGC, listed | $15 a month |
| Junip | Media requests on Core | Core plan | Meta Shops, Growth plan | $29 a month |

| Fera | Startup plan | Not listed | Not listed | $9 a month |
From each app's Shopify App Store listing on October 16, 2026. A plan name means the listing ties the feature to that plan. "Listed" means it appears without a plan. "Not listed" means it does not appear on the listing, which does not prove the app lacks it.
Read the table both ways. Judgeme lists photo and video reviews on its free plan, and Loox and Okendo list rewards on theirs, while Quoli asks for Starter at $10 a month for video and rewards. Fera's first paid plan, at $9 a month, is the lowest here. Several apps also list features Quoli does not offer: referrals (Judgeme, Loox, Okendo) and SMS review requests (Judgeme, Okendo, Junip, Stamped, Fera). Side-by-side pages for each app are on compare.
How Quoli asks for photos and videos
Quoli sends review requests by email, link or QR code, timed after purchase, fulfillment or delivery. The review form accepts photos on every plan and video on Starter and up. Two settings decide how much media comes back.
The photo request email
When a review arrives with no photo or video, Quoli can send a follow-up with the subject "Add a photo to your review", addressed by first name, and a button that reads "Add a photo or video". Customers who already uploaded media never receive it. The photo request is off by default: switch it on under Settings > Collect and publish > Review requests, and adjust its wording in Settings > Emails, where each email has its own editable template.
Rewards set by media type
On Starter and up, rewards are discount codes, percent off or an amount off, with an expiry date and a reminder. A reward can be the same for every review or differ for text, photo and video, so filming a clip can earn more than writing a sentence. Tie the reward to the media and never to the rating, so an honest mixed review with a video earns the same code as a glowing one.
Where customer media appears on your store
Quoli's storefront widgets are blocks in the Shopify theme editor, loaded by the Core Script app embed. Four places put customer media to work:
- PDP Reviews Widget: the reviews section on product pages, with a media slider setting for customer photos and videos.
- Grid Reviews Widget: a photo grid of reviews.
- Home Carousel: the Photo Wall and Video Reel styles bring customer media to the homepage.
- UGC Ads: on Growth and up, the same photos and videos become downloadable ads, covered in the next section.
Each block can be previewed in the widgets library, and the storefront widgets are available in 19 languages. To give a strong photo the first slot, pin its review to the top or feature it in the Home Carousel. The photos, text and rating themselves stay exactly as the customer submitted them.
Customer video as ad creative
Media on the product page only reaches shoppers who are already there. UGC Ads lays a photo or video review out as an ad in three sizes across 11 designs and downloads it as PNG, JPEG or MP4 for you to upload; publishing straight to Meta, TikTok and Google is coming soon. Quoli does not collect reviewers' permission for ads, so ask the customer first. The full workflow is in making ads from customer reviews.
Measuring how much media you collect
The Home screen in Quoli's admin shows media conversion, the share of reviews that include a photo or video, and the Analytics page tracks media reviews over time. Change one thing at a time, such as switching on the photo request or raising the video reward, and compare media conversion before and after.
Which app fits which store
Every app here collects photos. Choose by the plan you will sit on and by what you want the media to do next.

- Loox suits a store that wants reviews shared as social posts and stories, with referrals in the same app.
- Okendo suits a brand that wants reviews, loyalty, surveys, quizzes and referrals from one vendor.
- Quoli suits a store that wants a photo follow-up email, rewards set per media type, and customer media on the product page, the homepage and in ads.
