Fishbowl alternatives

What reviewers actually said

Built only from these 120 real reviews (foreign ones translated). Superscripts jump to the quote here. Apple has no per-review links, so [ref] opens that app's reviews on the App Store.

1. [R3] Fishbowl 3/5 · US Can’t Log out.: Great App for anything you might need into but how come I CANNOT log out of the account or the app? That’s just beyond bizarre to me.
2. [R7] Fishbowl 1/5 · US Broken App: This app constantly has server issues so you can’t update your industry. Can’t update your email or can’t update your description either you can try to update it 4, 5+ or more times it just won’t stick the app and their servers don’t work.
3. [R9] Fishbowl 3/5 · US Not bad: This app sounds great in theory, it is in amazing idea. However, there are many things that need to be fixed in the app. An example is the ability to change your position if you, for instance, get a promotion. Changed mine almost 6 months ago and it still shows as “pending”… don’t think anyone is reviewing those.
4. [R13] Fishbowl 1/5 · US Unable to sign up: The app is stuck on Gender selection screen. I've tried deleting and reinstalling as well. Still its stuck. Please fix it
5. [R6] Fishbowl 3/5 · US I wish I could give 5 stars: But Fishbowl (like Glassdoor) is still bowing to the company demands to “curate” messages. You want 5 stars? Show users why they should trust the hard messages they have the courage to share aren’t erased by corporate interests.
6. [R10] Fishbowl 1/5 · US Copywriter: Been closed out twice for comments that were not offensive or out of bounds at all. Seems arbitrary. Bit lame. Only use for job search stuff now and barely contribute original posts bc of the grandmas reporting comments for no reason.
7. [R25] Fishbowl 1/5 · US They’ll Protect Big Companies.: I was banned from this app for leaving truthful reviews about my company. They sided with the leaders of my company who reported my very plain and matter-of-fact posts and replies as ‘vulgar and offensive’. This IS NOT an app that fosters open conversation, it’s a tool for companies to control their own external optics.
8. [R32] Fishbowl 4/5 · GB Helps to share the pain, but harsh mods: I can talk to people going through the same experiences. Great community. Shame the mods don’t see it that way and shut down great discussions.
9. [R1] Fishbowl 1/5 · US Went downhill: This used to be where you can ask questions about life (dating, parenting, etc.) and you get answers from an educated pool of your consulting peers. Now that they have opened the app to all kinds of professions, the answers that you get are very different from before. This is no different from Reddit at this point and a waste of time.
10. [R4] Fishbowl 2/5 · US No longer showing fresh content, no longer checking daily: For the past 1-2 months, I’ve gone from using fishbowl daily to only checking it once or twice a month. Why, you ask? Because for some unknown reason, the developers decided to change the “My Feed” sorting algorithm to only show the most popular posts from my bowls within around a month, meaning that every time I open the app I see the sam
11. [R50] Fishbowl 1/5 · US Not worth the time: Great idea but ultimately just an echo chamber for disgruntled employees and no clear discernment for what is and is not appropriate. Discrimination is acceptable as long as it is directed at the right demographic and open, productive discourse is usually drowned out by speculation and doomsayers.
12. [R38] Fishbowl 1/5 · US The app is broken: Something is wrong with the app. I am now unable to make new posts or respond to new posts. But far more troubling is that there is no one working for the app who will respond anymore to any messages. This is my last attempt to see if they will respond before I delete the app.
13. [R39] Fishbowl 1/5 · US No support response - app unusable: App broke - now just says to try again later when trying to post/comment (on latest version). I’ve reached out twice for help/resolution and didn’t even get an acknowledgement. App is now unusable, with no explanation or help fixing it
14. [R44] Fishbowl 1/5 · US Zero Support / Response: Can’t get support to verify title and restore access to private bowl. Have sent multiple Emails.
15. [R45] Fishbowl 1/5 · US Kicked out of my work bowl: I was kicked out of my law firm’s bowl and cannot get back in. Was not given a reason. Sent emails to fishbowl which were ignored. App lacks support/customer service.
16. [R27] Fishbowl 1/5 · US Selling your data to your employers: App barely worked half the time, wonder why they want your email address? It’s to sell the data to your employer. Don’t trust it, don’t use it, and use an application that doesn’t “need” your personal identifier to use.
17. [R48] Fishbowl 1/5 · US Anonymous is a lie: Now expects you to post with your real name or company (which is bad when at a smaller company), marks titles as "pending" for several months. Deleted the app, since it's basically LinkedIn pretending to be something else.
18. [R51] Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers 1/5 · US Sold out: Glass door has sold out the employees that expect honesty from fellow employees by allowing companies to delete negative reviews essentially turning a pier reviewed platform into another app shilling our data for corporate reputation washing.
19. [R52] Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers 5/5 · US Stephanie, LPN: Thank you Glassdoor for really understanding what it takes for nursing professionals to level up they’re employment!!!
20. [R54] Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers 1/5 · US AI has ruined the app: New AI update has made the app unusable for me. Terrible and not at all user friendly.
21. [R58] Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers 5/5 · US Driver: I am getting plenty of job listings. I hope it pans out to be new work for me.
22. [R65] LinkedIn 1/5 · US Not a robot: I haven’t logged in to LinkedIn in years. Trying to login seems impossible. The “not a robot” prompts are apparently too difficult for me to understand. Mark all boxes with busses. If a bus bleeds over to another square does that count as a square? Tried both ways and still I fail it. Try the audio version. Am I supposed to put spaces between the words? Try both ways and still fail. H
23. [R66] LinkedIn 5/5 · US Stronger connection.: If you feel your gift is dying try LinkedIn, a few connection will reassure you of bring your gift back to life. Is not just connection is a place of hope when your talent is clear.
24. [R67] LinkedIn 3/5 · US Cannot Access Certain Features Unless You Pay: I can no longer extensively browse people through search because I have to pay in order to look at more than 5 people but I can't afford to pay for the monthly or yearly membership as it's ridiculously priced. I understand how Premium makes sense for the job application process but everyone should have unlimited access to the search capabilities.
25. [R68] LinkedIn 1/5 · US Once I paid, it crashes every time I open it: Once I upgraded to premium. Every time I open the app on my iPad it prompts me for an update. And doesn't allow me to do anything. I click update. Which brings up the App Store. Asking me to open the app. And it starts all over again, prompting me for the update. I've deleted the app. Reinstalled the app. I can do nothing on LinkedIn. Because all I get
26. [R79] FishAngler 1/5 · US Terrible support: Talk about trash. These people claim to support veterans but when a vet accidentally was charged for a full year 59.99 for their app they wouldn’t even offer a refund after it was immediately deleted and u used. No customer service. They just blamed Apple. Apple isn’t the owner of the company. They are. They are a joke. Shame on you
27. [R80] FishAngler 5/5 · US Great: This is a great app for fishing though I wish it would help me with knots. Maybe you can add
28. [R82] FishAngler 1/5 · US Day 6 of trying to get past the sign in page: Cant sign in. Infinite loading screen. Fix it. Is this app abandoned or something?
29. [R84] FishAngler 3/5 · US My app keeps crashing: I can’t log in
30. [R93] onWater 2/5 · US Useless: This app is useless as a free version. Just about every click it wants me to upgrade. Deleted it after two days.
31. [R94] onWater 5/5 · US Best app ever: The greatest app when it comes to fishing or hunting. It’s a life saver also and it’s an important app to have in the back country
32. [R95] onWater 3/5 · US Pretty disappointed in measurement feature: You pay alot for this app and the one thing I need it for, measurement feature, is super buggy and rarely works. I’d change to a 5 star if this was fixed.
33. [R96] onWater 1/5 · US Garbage: Can’t even try the app. As soon as you click on it it’s like a pop-up every one second.
34. [R107] Myngly 1/5 · US Texas only: You have to apply; without a disclaimer, they only accept TX residents. This gated UX and exclusivity needs major reworking. Don't waste your time, folks.
35. [R108] Myngly 5/5 · US Amazing connecting professionals: Love the app. And also love their events.
36. [R109] Myngly 5/5 · US Best App to Network: This app is incredible I was at SXSW and I got to connect with so many incredible people. It is definitely worth to download if you are at an event and you want to see who is around and connect.
37. [R110] Myngly 5/5 · US Myngly is the way to Network: I use Myngly as an event organizer because of the Quality of Professionals on the Network, I use it to promote and market the Oil Gas Global Network monthly mixers and National Business Expo, Houston Business Expo, Austin Business Expo, San Antonio Business Expo, Dallas Business Expo, and Bryan College Station Business Expo You can find more information about NBE at:
38. [R20] Fishbowl 5/5 · GB Insightful: I have a better perspective on salary and how to increase because of fishbowl. Great app!
39. [R85] FishAngler 1/5 · US Paywalls have ruined FishAngler: After years of contributing and using FishAngler as a community tool for anglers all over the world, the March 2026 update that paywalls seeing other peoples catches has killed the app for me. FishAngler still allows you to log your catches but now they own that data and sell it to other users as a ‘premium’ feature. I’m very sad to be deleting all my data and the
40. [R89] FishAngler 1/5 · US Expensive: This apple run you $80 per year not worth it not even close. You still have people that report their catches at their houses so you don’t really know where they got caught. Not worth it delete it from your phone.
