Scam

Very few “projects” listed, and even when you are “approved” for one it disappears or you are waiting for a magical PIN that is never sent. Prettt sure this is just a scam farming personal information to sell to companies or something. Junk.

It’ll never happen with appen

Don’t expect to get any actual gigs. I’ve tried many times and it’s as if the jobs don’t really exist. Never any response one way or the other.

Login

It won’t let me login. It keeps going back to the login page everytime I try to log in my account.

Faulty App

Unable to save primary language so not able to receive jobs.

Really terrible

The app is trash. The forms asking for demographic data ask the same questions repeatedly within the same form then never submit. Once a task is applied for, through the website because the app is unusable, nothing ever proceeds and the task is never available to be completed.

Email correspondence for available tasks floods your inbox but without a link to the task leaving you with the fun task of searching pages and pages of “tasks” to locate what you’re looking for.

I don’t know who setup the app and website but based on the level of clunk I’d hope they rebook the entire flow. -5/5

what is going on

Like everyone else on the reviews, the program itself is very chaotic and confusing. I get emailed repeatedly over the same projects, telling me to apply. And then it never materializes into anything. Then I get more emails telling me there’s a new project and to apply…but it’s the same old projects I’m already applied to and in a pending status with. I also am constantly asked to choose some sort of Chinese interface or data collection situation, what is that??

I finally got accepted into a project and barely knew I did, the conditions/pay didn’t make sense to me. Because it’s saying $X for *the* submission, but it’s supposed to be multiple submissions. I’ve never dealt with something so confusing in my life and I’m a master at computers, software, apps, etc

Broke my phone

Phone was working fine. Downloaded this and my iPhone 13 stopped getting reception. It also resets itself randomly.

I got my iPhone in January for context.

Doesn’t work

It won’t upload my videos, and even if it did, I wouldn’t know what to say. It says read the given paragraph. WHAT given paragraph?? There was none. This is just awful. If I could rate it zero stars, I would.

Both Appen and their app are bullsh^^

My real rating is ZERO stars.
You get notified to apply to dozens of projects. Then you take a quiz or fill out a questionnaire to see if you’re in the demographic they’re looking for. Then one of two scenarios happen:
1.) You get accepted and are given a PIN to work the job. You are immediately told all slots for the project are filled; or,
2.) You are told that they MIGHT consider inviting you to work on the project within 60 days. That invitation never comes.
And last but not least, you get an email telling you your contract has been terminated.
COLOSSAL waste of time. Sc^^w this company.

I would rate this app 0 if I could

I’m almost inside an insulated cabin, there’s no background noise but the app keeps showing an error message saying that the recording needs to start and end with 0.5 to 2 seconds of silence. This is ridiculous.
