Don’t give them your credit card information
I would NOT recommend this app/ site. When they first launched they were amazing. You could have a free account with limited functions. But it was great. Now whoever is running the company doesn’t care about their customer base. My free account got switched to $180 a year. Okay fine. I just saw my Amex today. I got charged $1266 for the year!!! 7 times more in just 1 years time. They have no support. No one answering. Just stuck in a loop of FAQ pages online. I’m shocked and disappointed in the direction of this company. I logged into cancel. And it shows “we will miss you. But you can use your service for the next 12 months” since you already paid for it. And we have no intentions of refunding your money!! As a business owner who’s being hit with inflation and a lagging Economy. I just don’t have the funds to cover this. I’m really at a loss.Show lessA once great app felled by greed and incompetence
Hootsuite used to be a great tool to help manage your small ecosystem of social media. You’d be able to post quick updates to up to three accounts at once, helping small niche websites like the one I and a few friends run for comic news get on the cutting edge of breaking news and previews. Over time, features started to either disappear behind a paywall or break entirely. Then the mail in the coffin for this app, you can no longer use the app without a paid account. So for small websites like mine, that don’t earn money, and we do this just for fun, this app is no longer a viable option and has been deleted off our phones. Oh well, at least there are better alternatives out there still.Show lessCrashes when editing a draft and scrambles the text
I like to pre-compose posts on my home computer for the various social media platforms and then save it to draft so that I can arrive at a certain location take a selfie in front of that location and then add that new picture to the saved draft, but the draft either crashes when I try to pull it up on the phone as soon as I hit edit or if it doesn’t crash when first opening it up, it seems to scramble some of my paragraph with a bunch of duplicate words all in a row and doesn’t seemed to have preserved the individual tweaks to the different social media platforms, such as certain tags and reduced characters for the different platforms. So in that regard, the mobile app is somewhat useless to me, because other than wanting to do that I do everything else from the web page on my home computer.Show less
