Terrific App

Just excellent! I’m frequently amazed at the speed with which answers are supplied, and at the really good expression. I can get detailed and accurate answers to even obscure questions in seconds. It’s infinitely superior to using Google or any other search engine.

Awesome!

Awesome!

If you want a great alternative to chat GPT, this is it!

You get prompts that are researched on the internet and it provides all the articles for you to read yourself! I love it

Worked. Then didn’t

Installed on iPad yesterday. Enjoyed several searches. Partner then also installed on her iPad; she launched the app but searches resulted in error, try again later. Uninstalled app, reinstalled = no change. Today my iPad exhibits exactly the same response: starts endless search then error, try again later. Then installed app on my iPhone. Same unsuccessful response. Launched perplexity via DuckDuckGo, can use without any problem at all. Just installed ChatGPT on iPad. Good. Installed ChatGPT on iPhone. Good. It may just be this version, but I’m done with it.
Now I can’t sign in:-
Via Apple sign-in, get an error occurred.
Via email sign-in, get an error occurred.
Via manual email sign-in, get invalid code (and no, it hadn’t expired; copy/paste)

Like a magic wand, PERPLEXITY gives me a Peace

I am slow to explore the popular trend of adopting AI-assisted searching tools as I generally get by with the old ways. Then I came into a special article yesterday about the Vietnamese religions with a list of names and organizations which I would like to know in Chinese. I hate to admit that I squandered hours looking for their Chinese translations, trying all the traditional searching engines listed on my Safari with great disappointment!!

I needed to open another door! Then I sort of gave PERPLEXITY a try as my husband mentioned it the other days with great excitement. Then, it is like with some magic power, PERPLEXITY answered all my long-searched questions, each within just a few seconds. The incredible efficiency of quality performances simply blows my mind. I feel so grateful with such a magical tool! Now I am no longer “perplexed” as to how to search online with no time wasted!

My new favorite app

I almost NEVER write reviews, but this app deserves another 5-star rating. It’s quick, it’s simple, it delivers quality search results that are up-to-date and succinct. It cites sources and the summaries are unbiased and accurate. I can’t sing it’s praises enough and have already had several friends/coworkers check it out and they love it too.

I’m not looking forward to the inevitable monetization, but hopefully they take a pragmatic approach to it and don’t allow themselves to “promote” search results the way Google does. In fact, I’d be willing to pay for it if it kept it ad-free and didn’t compromise its values of providing unbiased results.

Annoying me to review it after every search despite being a premium member.

So here goes nothing, the interface of the popup for searching information looks cheap.

Search results disappear into the third icon in the bottom toolbar immediately after searching rather than encouraging deeper search is annoying.

The default should be to facilitate askign a follow up.

Perplejo

Qué revolución estamos viviendo. Con esta aplicación las búsquedas dejan de ser el ahogo en un pajar y se convierten en una aguja imantada, que apunta hacia nuevos descubrimientos.

La interfaz es perfecta, clara, intuitiva y bien diseñada.

Es fascinante.

Exceptionnel!

Je ne peux plus m’en passer

I wish I could give it zero stars

I thought I would try this app as I got a free year from being a LinkedIn premium member so they make it sound like it was such a great value It’s not . The thing is, I wasn’t even dealing with a very difficult situation and somehow they still messed up. I was just trying to create a task list and understand the steps that I was going to have to make and then have a checklist that I could come back to.. It seemed easy enough to me and it should be for an AI app Apparently, not because I minimize the window thinking I could just come back to it and it was gone and the app did nothing but to tell me to brainstorm all of the things that I had worked on trying to figure out all the things I was forgetting So clearly this is not a $200 value clearly this is just wasted my time Do better Perplexity or your app is going to fail. Not sure why I’m even keeping it on my phone because I’m already so angry but the stupidity of this app.
