DT has been my best earner for iPhoneography.
I also have images on Fotolia Instant and Stockimo but no sales on either yet.

EDIT: a couple sales on Fotolia Instant with 7 images.

My best iPhone earner on DT sold again last week for $10.38 - it's an editorial image that is usually licensed as a credits sale. Nice to make a little extra from iPhoneography. I've also had iPhone images that I've uploaded to Alamy as reportage zoomed on recently so I'll have to see how they do. "m not turning in my Nikon yet LOL

i have only tried eyeem and fotolia. fotolia rejects nearly everything I sent, eyeem takes most of it.

I would like to try dreamstime and twenty20 next.

I am on Stockimo, 3 sales so far.

I went on to check my fotolia/Adobe sales and they just licensed one of my Fotolia Instant iPhone photos today - they also licensed another iPhone image for me a while back - so I've had 2 sales with 7 images on Instant.

Disappointing to see some of them only have iPhone app
I have uploaded some editorial photos taken from my phone to SS and 123RF as regular uploads. One of them has 100+ sales,  another with 50+, and many with 10+.

When you uploading mobile images to SS do you need some special tag, "mobile" or something like that ?

Three sales through the SMART collection by Westend61, netting me €130 (about $150).

A few sales with mobile shots on Stocksy United, not sure because I don't really remember which of my shots were mobile or from my Sony NEX.

A handful of sales through Fotolia Instant. I don't track separate sales on Shutterstock and others.

Quite a few sales on EyeEm/Getty over the last year.

Just started a mobilestock experiment on my blog three weeks ago where I upload on Snapwire, Twenty20, Foap etc. First sale on Twenty20 for $1.

not a lot but i've made a little wwith the getty app

No

I signed up with twenty20. The files are not exclusive right? I cannot find anything about exclusivity on their site.

I´ll upload the files that are not exclusive to eyeem plus a few other things that interest me.

We´ll see what happens.

I have started to reprocess some of my older series with the smartphonelook. Might give them a new life.

Eta: got a reply from their support that everything is non exclusive.

the westend61 sales look great but i think it much harder to get a sale in there compare to Instant fotolia isnt it?
can you please send a link to your mobilestock experiment on your blog?

I dont really like the mobile DT , its like dead for me , i mean i dont even get views on pictures after the photo isnt consider new.
how many photos you have on your DT porfolio and how much did you do in there?

No, I read someone got paid an insignificant amount for a stockimo sale on their forum.  Its probably like any other sale with alamy, some are good, some aren't.

You asked about DT:
I have just a handful from "Assignment" contests on there. They all keep selling even nearly two years after uploading - probably because they are exclusive due to the "Assignment" rules. I may pull them off exclusivity when the two years lapses and try them on the other phone app sites, though then they'll lose their DT rank. DT often does okay for me, so I may just leave them there. For the iPhone pix, I get some $10 credit sales and some $0.42 subs. It's a mix. They get licensed fairly regularly.

I don't think DT has an actual app for phone pix - I'm not on there much but the ones I have on there were from an assignment asking for iPhoneography.

I've toyed with jumping on the band wagon and uploading more mobile pix, but I feel like it's a fad and really wonder how many people who are paying for photos (even if they're paying very little) want to pay for an iPhone photo?

I know one woman at Alamy who sells a lot for good prices on Stockimo but she has hundreds of iPhone pix and she shoots them like studio work and does a lot of post.

Sure, these are the two blog posts so far:
http://www.michaeljayfoto.com/distribution-channels/making-money-from-mobile-smart-phone-images-an-experiment/
http://www.michaeljayfoto.com/agency-reviews/the-mobile-stock-experiment-continued/

I will blog about the first month probably next week. And I have asked a couple of others to tell about their experiences with mobile stock, also soon to be published. 

I only heard about Foap this week. My only doubt is about the personal information thay ask you to become "verified". They ask you to grant acces to your paypal account and have all kind of personal data taken from there, such as address, birthday and others...it never occured to me that any other agency ever asked me more than my paypal mail for paying me. What do you think about this? I'd like to give them a chance but this is really bugging me

i have 100 images on twenty20 and two sales, one for one dollar, one for 9 dollars. I upload via tablet or iphone, but most pictures were taken with normal cameras.

I have 1400 images on eyeem, but only one sale on eyeem itself for 9 dollars. But I have 880 images over on getty through eyeem and get between 100 to over 200 dollars a month.

But on twenty20, the images are not exclusive, so I plan to upload a lot more images that I reprocess smartphone style. For eyeem they are exclusive, but I will continue uploading the content that wouldn´t sell elsewhere.

Main income is from normal stock sites, but smartphone stock is a lot of fun, so I´ll keep doing it.

I submit images to DT through its mobile app but as someone said above..  Not even a single view. 
And yes ss has an android app which allow u to upload mobile images.  I have some uploaded via this route recently but no sale yet. 
I have not yet tried eyeem.  It seems interesting.  Will see it

Newbie here!  I just got my iPhone 6s and travel a lot, so I am hoping that I can learn/earn by participating in some of the contests on Twenty20 and Snapwire (before I make the jump to some of the bigger agencies?) 

I'd appreciate any thoughts you may have on these sites?  Any tips/tricks for capturing great shots on my 6s?  Are there better sites than Twenty20 and Snapwire for mobile photography?

What about mobile video?  Any resources for shooting great sellable footage?

Thanks so much!

Sold my first mobile phone photo for $2.  Used a few sites but had no luck in over 6 months, so I will have to upload a lot more images.

Congratulations! Is it possible / makes sense to upload DSLR pictures to Twenty20? Will they sell?

Congratulations

I don't see the point in doing that, I already have enough places to sell DSLR photos.
