1. [R17] 1/5 · US ads and ai slop: hope you love nothing but ads and ai because that's all you're getting on here. i get more ads on my home feed than anything else!! this app sucks so bad now i don't understand HOW it's still so highly rated. searching doesn't even bring up images anymore, just product links. i don't go on pinterest to browse amazon and temu! whoever is in charge of this app has RUINED it complete
2. [R19] 1/5 · US Genuinely annoying: The ads are so annoying, anytime I wanna search something I get like 4 different ads for some random stuff before I can even get what I want then some be ai like Pinterest is genuinely so unusable im uninstalling I’m tired and it’s not getting any better clearly
3. [R20] 1/5 · US Ads: Way too many ads now. I wanna look at pins I like not ads for t mobile or whatever dumb store is sponsoring. I accidentally click on it and get sent to safari or amazon and it’s annoying. I’ve been using Pinterest for years now. I SCROLL DOWN AND ITS JUST ADS WITH TWO OR THEEE ACTUAL PINS SPRINKLED IN THEN 4 MORE ADS!!
4. [R22] 3/5 · US Too Many Ads: The amount of ads are insane. I understand to keep the app free for use, but I get at least two to 4 ads per scroll.
5. [R10] 1/5 · US The AI is outta hand: I go to Pinterest for inspiration for style parties, etc. home decor. Justin the last few months I’ve started to see so many AI generated images rooms photo backdrops nurseries. It’s so bad and I don’t wanna see AI I want real inspiration from real people
6. [R24] 2/5 · US Ads and AI slop: Pinterest used to be my comfort app. Now it’s 75% ads and AI slop, and that’s not even an exaggeration. It’s borderline unusable. You can turn off AI content in your home feed, and it helps a little bit with the slop. But there’s still an ad every 4 pins, and there’s nothing you can do about the search function. You used to be able to find anything you wanted on Pinterest - there
7. [R12] 1/5 · US We have lost the plot: The fact that Pinterest which was made for being able to find PINS hence PINterest now does not even show pins in the search bar just 90% products, 5% boards and 5% videos (which is a whole other thing) is bonkers. And you can filter for profiles but not pins for topics? What are we even doing anymore. And I am constantly getting “violations” for pins I did not even make and
8. [R53] 1/5 · US Ai slop: Gross.. Pinterest has gone down hill and fast. You can’t even search anymore.. totally lost its magic.
9. [R1] 4/5 · US Very good!: The only bad thing really is that it’s really addicting. As an Owl House fan, ITS SO HARD NOT TO STOP LOOKING AT SHIPS AND PIN THEM TO MY BOARDS!
10. [R18] 5/5 · US Google….: Pinterest is amazing✨ unlike google… but googles fine you know knows everything in the world but how does it do that no human knows about that stuff like the first two people were *pinched* in the world before i existed. And this is great coming back tmrw fam!
11. [R21] 5/5 · US Pinterest is amazing: I love Pinterest and it is so helpful ful to come up with ideas
12. [R81] 5/5 · US ADDICTIVE LIKE CRAZY: It’s too addictive dude be warned 😭✌️
13. [R46] 5/5 · US I love it 🍄: Its a good app because u can search for a bunch of things, save things which are called pins, and gather pins into something kinda like a folder so that u have a group of pins that are similar. So ex: Folder/group ~ “DIY projects” Pins/saves ~ “diy fidget bracelet”, “magnetic iPhone case”, “tote bag from old jeans”
14. [R35] 2/5 · US 1:1 ad ratio: I’ve absolutely loved Pinterest for over 10 years. I’ve created more than 40 boards, regularly save and post pins, and have always turned to Pinterest when I need inspiration or creativity. Lately, though, the app has become almost unusable. My home feed and search results are literally a 1:1 ratio of ads to actual pins. I understand that Pinterest needs advertising to make money,
15. [R44] 1/5 · US STOP ADDING AI FEATURES: no one asked for ai tips on our pins to waste water and resources for such a useless feature. and the app is diseased with more ads than actual posts, can’t believe the CEO is getting paid for ruining this app
16. [R13] 3/5 · US Rage bait final boss: I had a whole section on Pinterest that I was reorganizing. I was moving pins around to different sub sections for like an hour, and Pinterest acted like it was all working great. Then after all of my hard work, it reversed all of my changes and my pins were disorganized again. 😡😡😡 if it weren’t for this, I would’ve given Pinterest four stars, but alas, I’m petty. ALSO, Pinte
17. [R3] 3/5 · US For the widget: Whenever I try to switch the shape of the widget it will say smth like “oops theirs an issue on our end” on the widget nd not let me put my stuff back on it
18. [R38] 3/5 · US Please help and fix: I love Pinterest but the pictures never load maybe one time ever other week I am able to use it, but when it is working I love the app!
19. [R55] 5/5 · US I have an issue!!: I’ve been using Pinterest for a long time and it is an amazing app! But I’m having an issue with the widgets for your Home Screen. I have an older phone and I’ve been able to do it before so I’m not sure why it’s not working now. But when I go to add a widget to my home screen Pinterest won’t show up as an option for widgets. So I’m not sure what’s happening but it really sucks
20. [R67] 3/5 · US Not loading: App won’t reload page and just keeps showing pins I’ve already seen. It’s so littered with ads it’s not funny.
