- [R1] Wakie Chat This app is an absolute mess: Such a shame, used to be significantly better when I joined a few years ago. After the removal of call topics, it’s become impossible (especially as woman) to weed out the creeps, in which there are a LOT. There also seems to be a lot of users from one particular country that have flooded the app and made it literally impossible to use without being harassed, unless
- [R18] Wakie Chat REMOVING TOPICS RUINED THE APP!: I’m disappointed with the recent changes to the app, specifically the removal of topics. Topics were an important feature that allowed users, especially women, to have some control over their interactions and filter out uncomfortable or unsafe conversations. Without this feature, the app feels less safe and welcoming. It’s now much harder to determine who you’re ab
- [R6] Wakie Chat Not bad: Just a couple of creeps
- [R21] Wakie Chat Not for kids: I've been on Wakie for 2 months now. PRO -meet and chat to people around the world -diverse range of topics to join -numerous groups to join for open mic -24/7 activity -make friends online CON -a larger % of males, some which can be quite "thirsty" -decent conversation can be quite sparse with all the attention seeking topics -potential trolling, bad manners, lewd behaviour can be
- [R3] Wakie Chat Message Glitch: After recent update, when I am ready for calls and when I swipe people for calls. There is msg button to text them rather than the compliment one. That message button is not working, I keep tapping on it but nothing works :/
- [R9] Wakie Chat Keep crashing: Every time I try to join a club call it keeps glitching and crashing! Very poor quality.
- [R30] Wakie Chat Waste of time: This app is so infuriating. I can’t open my chats, or group chats. I can’t even touch my screen. I would give it 0 star if it would let me
- [R32] Wakie Chat Refuses to open on iOS15: I am literally paying £8 a month for this app and I can’t even open it ever since I upgraded to iOS 15! Please fix this ASAP!!! It’s just stuck on the loading screen!!! :(
- [R4] Wakie Chat WAKIE IS A MESS: This app is literally moderated by perverts, they ban you for taking action against other perverts and the management and support are just useless they never help or reply, this app kills the fun for people who genuinely want to use it for fun but boom here comes the ban because you’re just not a pervert like the rest 2025 update: this app is still a terrible app, the moderators
- [R36] Wakie Chat Banned for no reason.: Wakie banned me for no reason at all, yesterday i logged into my wakie account and found that i got banned for “ Nudity “ but it was a normal picture of me. The worst part is i contacted the Wakie support on settings and they haven’t even replied to any of my messages, not even a reply on my Appeal. It has almost been two days and wakie is still “ reviewing “ my appeal. It’
- [R45] Wakie Chat Childish: This app is now a school where the children have taken over. A majority of the mods are teens - 25 and have little to no understanding of sarcasm or post context. If two friends are joking with each other a third party could enter, report a said comment and have it removed. Context isn’t taken into consideration. Anything like racism and culture cannot be discussed. Indeed no serious di
- [R50] Wakie Chat Unsafe App- Beware: This app is not safe to use. Hackers have used this app to stalk and scare people. The community is run by perverts. Reporting people does nothing. If you want to talk to perverts use this app. The "community" is nothing but a cover for data mining. Quite obviously so. My phone number was hacked as was my location. Relevant authorities have been notified.
- [R16] Wakie Chat It used to be better: We used to go online while showing the subject that we are going to talk about, now it’s gone. I go there for discussions about lots of stuff and I used to enjoy but not anymore.. I’m deleting this app
- [R40] Wakie Chat Was interesting initially, now waste of time: This was one of the first apps I used, early after it was initially released. The initial concept - a human connection from across the planet at that most vulnerable moment of trying to wake up - was lovely. I used it a few times to receive calls and called others. With the exception of a few random pervs, it had potential. Then they went and complicat
- [R46] Wakie Chat Not so good.: Used to love waking people up and meeting people from across the world but now it’s exactly like Chatroulette/omegal! Just a plain black old chat room! What’s the point?
- [R34] Wakie Chat Privacy concerns: Be very careful of their privacy policy. It simply indicates they record, publish, use and can do whatever they want with your data including calls, conversations, topics and all and link that to your identity. You don’t even have the right to sue them as by using their service you give up all your rights to do so.
- [R13] Wakie Chat The premium is waste of money: I bought the premium version for a month and all the time I select one gender and it says there are 1200 callers looking for a call but I find 2 or 5 or sometimes none for hours so people who own this app. Tell me why is this paying for nothing
- [R8] Wakie Chat A Gateway to Genuine Connections": Wakie Voice App has been a game-changer for me. It’s more than just a platform for conversation; it’s a place where connections are formed, perspectives are broadened, and genuine interactions thrive. From late-night chats to morning inspiration, Wakie has become my go-to for meaningful conversations with like-minded individuals from around the world. It’s truly
- [R19] Wakie Chat Amazing: This app is so good to use if you want to make friends from around the globe. You’ll come across club calls which are so fun! I met this girl called ‘mími’ from United Kingdom and she has changed my experience. You will too come across friends for life
