Leave a Review Crowdfire
Maddening
I have two Twitter accounts linked to Crowdfire. The first account was linked through the trial offer. I later paid for Crowdfire and added the second account. It has been a nightmare from the start. I have had to contact customer support several times. Customer service takes 24 hours plus to return my message. That means I try the fix and if it does not work I wait another 24 hrs. Last issue took 72 hours +. I am now locked out of this account by Twitter and have unable to unlock it. The only feature I really like is the deleting of non-followers. The posts provided are pretty generic. I would cancel but I paid up front and will suffer through until renewal. I wish I had never heard of this App. Numerous hours wasted.Show lessBill in Temecula

Hey Bill! I'm so sorry you feel this way! I completely understand how frustrating this must be for you! I can assure you using Crowdfire cannot lock your account. Crowdfire follows all the guidelines provided by Twitter itself. Bill, we've replied to your email and I'd like to get this sorted for you ASAP. Can you please confirm on your end? Looking forward to your email - GwenDecent, a few things that could be improved
One of the things I liked most was the twitter management area. However, after maxing out the twitter accounts, the competitors followers stopped populating, resorting me to have to go back to the way I was doing it before which was less efficient. The Crowdfire plugin is very useful, but your content creation tool could be a little more efficient it lags and I can’t get any new content for extended periods of time. Incorporating more features unique to each platform when scheduling posts would be a plus too, not being able to use emojis can hinder finishing touches on content.Show lessSprinklez1399
Worse and worse
I’ve been using this app for a few years and I finally unsubscribed last year and so happy I did. This app gets more and more horrible with every update. It used to fun, helpful, and exciting to use just for free, then you had to pay for that which I didn’t mind. And now the app is just frustrating and highly limited and just officially broken. They had a great thing going and now I even see their rating has fully dropped by a star and will continue to drop with joe crappy they are doing things.Show lessAerialF791
Tip for FaceBook Business Pages
I almost deleted this app. I initially logged in with FaceBook and could never post to my facebook business page, each time I would tap Add Account I could see my pages, but, I’d get a popup to upgrade. I kept removing the app, deleting my account, reinstalling, googling help articles and going in circles for hours. I finally found a workaround that follows.
The Fix:
If you are a newcomer use your Twitter account to log first then add FaceBook. If you don’t, and login with FB first, the app will consider your personal FB account as the 1 account limit and you’ll not be able to post anything to your FB Business page. Also, each FaceBook Business Page is considered an Account, so you’ll have to buy a plan to post to more than one page.
Note: the ability to post to a personal timeline has been removed per FB TOS - similar apps have done the same.
Other than the initial setup, the app is pretty easy to use. Aggregating content by keyword is a great way to generate content. The ability to share articles from Google News, directly to the app for post scheduling is very nice.
Overall a bit pricy for the monthly plans, but, probably a must-have for social media managers.Show lessmov ax,1/int 21h
Won’t even open.
I used Crowdfire years ago, and from what I remember I liked the app a lot. But for a period of time I got less serious about my instagram and stopped using apps to help me schedule posts and the like.
I recently got really into my social media game though after starring on a dating show though, wanting to capitalize on the following that it helped bring me, and I remembered Crowdfire and saw that people were still using it! I apparently still had it downloaded so I updated the app and I’ve been trying to access it for days. However, no matter what I do this app will not open. I just get the main page and it says launching forever. It may be a decent app, if it was usable, but at this point it’s needlessly taking up storage on my phone. Looks like it’s fine to delete and find another app.Show lessTithe_Girl

Hey there! It looks like you're trying to use the Growth featues for Twitter! Instagram asked us to remove some features and we really had no control over this :( Do read about it here: http://crwd.fr/cfinstanews Our Publish feature is still available :) Can you please writie to us at hello@crowdfireapp.com and I'd love to explain you in detail and help you with the new features on Crowdfire. - MegFacebook pages won’t even work
I know you can’t post to actual profiles anymore but now the app won’t connect to Facebook at all. It’s an endless loop of connection attempts and granting access that leads only to a frozen app. I’ve contacted their support with no reply as of yet.
Also the articles seem to be getting worse and worst with more and more spam articles. I’m having to preview everything to ensure it’s not click bait or even porn. May have to only use the RSS feature until our paid membership expires and then cancel.Show lessDpphoto
Pretty good
The app is great for finding who follows me back, finding competitors followers, and scheduling content. My only complaint is with the suggested articles. I did not select politics as an interest, but 80% of the suggested articles are political. Not only that, every one of them seem to come from a specific political point of view. Also, I checked that I was interested in religion, but almost all of the articles on religious matters are from an anti-religious point of view. So for the most part I find the articles useless... occasionally a good one about art pops up.Show lessBusyBusyBusyone
Works But Very, Very, Very Buggy
First, you have to be committed to using this app and it’s recommendations every single day. Do that and you could go from zero to 5,000 users in a year. I did. However, I’m a pretty patient person. But the worst thing is, you’re going to need a good dose of patience to work your way around all the bugs in this app. It works, but definitely not for the faint of heart or someone who isn’t willing to put in the time to build a following. The app helps, organizes, recommends and schedules posts you choose, but it doesn’t fly without you.Show lessChristian musician
Would be higher, but removed "post multiple times" functionality
I generally love this app, but its usefulness took a serious hit when they removed the "post multiple times" functionality. I REALLY don't like to have to manually post my content multiple times. Why this functionality was removed is beyond me. Big mistake.
Also, they aren't the most responsive to questions on social media. I asked about this multiple times on different social media platforms, but got no response.
Whether I renew this fall or not all depends on functionality. Make it easier for your users to share their content repeatedly.Show lessJoshh1280
Automatically linked to another person’s Facebook account
After I logged into the app it automatically log me into another person‘s Facebook account. It auto populated their email address and password, neither of which I had, and I could even push the see button and see the password. I tried deleting that Facebook account and entering in my own and the app kept automatically connecting me to the other Facebook account and wouldn’t let me connect my Facebook account. Even after I tried deleting the app and reinstalling it it still connected me to this other person‘s email account. Then I tried searching all over the Internet to find someway to contact help and get assistance and I couldn’t find any way to contact any person. I finally found an option called mini crowdfire where you can send an email and that was even broke!!! When I tried to send the email The system bounce back and wouldn’t said the email through. What the heck!? Why is there no way to get in touch with any person related to to this app?!?!🤯😫😤Show lessBekahbeck
