What reviewers actually said

Built only from these 100 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] Likee 3/5 · US Quality: Video quality is always terrible. · translated
  2. [R12] Likee 3/5 · US Please fix it: It's a good offer, but sometimes it has really stupid logic. 1. Bans are given for harmless videos (I was banned for a video about ice cream). 2. It skips videos like 18+, swearing, etc. Developers, please take note and fix this.
  3. [R51] Snapchat 1/5 · US 0 snaps, 4 notifications?: Seriously, what happened? This whole platform just became one giant advertisement. Absolute trash app
  4. [R63] Snapchat 1/5 · US Not paying: I’ve had Snapchat since it became an app, I have over 200gb of memory and a 4000+ snap streak. Why am I being told to pay for storage??? It’s ridiculous.
  5. [R7] Likee 1/5 · US 1 star: So back in 2018 I had an account with this app. I made it when I was very young and I had some very good memories with friends on this app. It seems though I can’t really log back in and anytime I look up my username it shows unavailable. I don’t know if they delete inactive users. This really upsets me because I can’t go back and look at old memories that I made when I was a little kid.
  6. [R19] Likee 1/5 · US Comments and Bugs: The comments aren’t working, whenever I try to comment, they won’t work. If I comment “NICE!” And leave, and check to see if it’s there, it’s not there. So I would really appreciate if you could fix it the best you can!
  7. [R53] Snapchat 3/5 · US Saves unwanted accounts: I have 2 accounts and one of the accounts continues to show up when i log out . Yes i know not to save info to iCloud or device . Yet it still pops up after i log out my main account . I hate this and i would really hate it if someone got into . I really need this to be fixed so i can be worry and stress free about anyone logging in .
  8. [R60] Snapchat 1/5 · US Snap is a bad app: Band my account for no reason and can’t make new account phone band for no reason 1 star
  9. [R10] Likee 1/5 · US Ugh: You only get 6 super likes, no more. Constant ads, swearing, not kid-friendly content, scary stuff. I'm deleting it now. · translated
  10. [R25] Likee 1/5 · US Horrible: Horrible app, bans every video FOR NO REASON. People write and post threats, AND NOTHING HAPPENS TO THEM. · translated
  11. [R89] Snapchat 1/5 · US Stories not loading: Your app is having technical issues snap stories aren’t loading until 20 hours later fix your app
  12. [R96] Snapchat 1/5 · US Tracking+: This app is even sillier than IG. Tracks you, tracks your friends, and doesnt provide any real value
  13. [R21] Likee 1/5 · US DONT LIKE IT..: I tried to like it and use it instead of TT.. But LIKEE didn’t support MANY POPULAR SONGS.. they only used RUSSIAN, POLISH music.. Songs I never heard of.. I deleted it.. came back reinstalled it and now it’s new update ?? You have to download NON COPYRIGHT MUSIC.. WTF⁉️⁉️ stupid App IMO,. Deleted it again and can stay deleted ..
  14. [R91] Snapchat 1/5 · US Photo memory: Thanks to Snapchat new update on wanting us to pay for more memory storage people who has been taking photos since years back like 2016 will loose all their memories, just bc Snapchat wants us to buy their subscription. Greedy.
  15. [R22] Likee 5/5 · US 😁: Hello Likee Support, My account was banned, and I believe this was a mistake. I did not do anything wrong and think I may have been falsely reported by other users. I always try to follow the Likee community rules, so I kindly ask you to review my account again and remove the ban if possible. Thank you for your time and support. Likee ID/Username: b4chiraaa
  16. [R37] Likee 1/5 · US WHY???: We received a ban notification for streams, videos, private messages, and group chat. I checked everything and found no violations anywhere. I don't write anything in private messages at all; I don't chat there. There's nothing forbidden in the videos. I disagree with your decision to suspend my publishing and streaming for 6 days. I am not involved in this in any way. · translated
  17. [R64] Snapchat 5/5 · US Hello Snapchat Support, My account works normally on Snapchat Web, but I cannot log in on my iPhone: Hello Snapchat Support, My account works normally on Snapchat Web, but I cannot log in on my iPhone because I receive a "Your device has been banned" message. Snapchat is an important source of my income, and losing access on my device has greatly affected my work. If this restriction was triggered
  18. [R75] Snapchat 1/5 · US It locked me permanently: I don't even know what I did to get my account permanently locked. I found it dumb that it happened because I didn't do anything and I was literally just using it yesterday 😭 I tried to get it back on the thing where it says "unlock" but it doesn't work still. Can you give my account back
