### 2/5 — Too many unsolicited marketing push notifications

*2026-08-25, version 30.9*

Designed to make it difficult to unsubscribe

### 3/5 — Needs better updates

*2026-08-08, version 30.6*

New base mode fails to list most things

Legacy mode toggle keeps disappearing 

Seems like it’s just vibe coded now

### 3/5 — Going down hill with this last update

*2026-08-07, version 30.6*

I’ve used the Base app for a while. It was never a well designed app. Like the developer was making it hard to use for no reason. But this latest update is horrible. Everything is so much worse. I’ll be moving out of this app entirely over the next few weeks. The bots are horrible. They the old app blocked most of the them. This update appears to just let them in. A few of my connections have been dropped and I have no idea how to reconnect them. So instead I’m just moving to a different platform, I recommend you do to. I would also recommend Base fire the morons that thought this update was a good idea.

### 1/5 — Bad update

*2026-08-05, version 30.6*

Lost functionality compared to old app and can’t review anything for details regarding nfts etc like I could previously. Hard to use now

### 1/5 — New app trash

*2026-08-04, version 30.6*

New version sucks. You cannot access dapps easy. Bring back the old version the UI is garbage

### 1/5 — Stupid

*2026-08-01, version 30.5.1*

This app is so stupid. After using something like Kraken for awhile, but being forced to trade certain coins on this app, I hate it. This is exchange is dumb. Nothing goes through like you expect it to. And on top of that I can never sell my coins, it just tells me I may not be getting g the best price but can continue with my transaction anyway. But it never actually lets me trade it. Forget this app, they can keep the chump change on there. Do not download this, use Kraken instead. This app will do nothing but tick you off.

### 1/5 — Horrible. Removed legacy mode

*2026-07-31, version 30.5.1*

Over $5,000 is now inaccessible because they removed legacy mode. Why would legacy mode be required to access coins on a wallet anyway?

### 1/5 — Bugs not fixed

*2026-07-31, version 30.5.1*

bugs for switch to legacy mode

### 2/5 — Coins missing new update!!

*2026-07-30, version 30.5.1*

New update gives you no access to your coins!!! The Base Mode switcher is now entirely gone!! 
Now I gotta contact my attorney General in my State just to file a formal Complaint !!!

### 1/5 — Lost funds

*2026-07-29, version 30.5.1*

My app updated on its own. Ever since the update my lite coins have gone missing. Why would yall force an update on us and not have a top 25 crypto on the network.👎🏾👎🏾 Also while lite coin be added to the new base wallet????

### 1/5 — Rebranded to Pure garbage

*2026-07-27, version 30.4.110*

This wallet is pure garbage. Original Coinbase wallet was fantastic. What a grave error to try the “ new wallet experience “ . It’s garbage and there is no option to get back to the original. No option to leave base mode. I tried everything for several hours and this trash will not go back to the normal version. Normal version was a million times better. There was no need to wreck it and make it into this trash!

### 1/5 — Use to be good

*2026-07-27, version 30.4.110*

The new update is super trash it did a update I can’t even find the Wallet I had I send funds with crypto.com and after it did the update my wallet completely disappeared so I have no idea where the funds went at …it says I have to add money in the wallet with trust wallet or buy usdc…. The old version was soo much better now I don’t even wanna use it anymore like I legit juste got scammed I used it for years before I never have an issue it’s the new update super trash when i click on a coin I wanna buy I don’t see the option receive with the QR CODE it’s really bad I’m done using it never again

### 1/5 — It doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Trade Smarter Alert Crashes Entire App Completely on IPhone

*2026-08-30, version 30.9*

Trade Smarter Alert Crashes Entire App Completely on IPhone. Cannot access app whatsoever at all. App immediately crashes upon clicking “continue” after the “Trade Smarter” alert pops up.

### 1/5 — Update and deleted

*2026-08-29, version 30.9*

This is not a decentralized wallet

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-08-28, version 30.9*

Every update made this worse

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2026-08-25, version 30.8*

They update it and it gets rid of your wallet. Their “customer service” is just an AI chatbot that doesn’t actually help with anything. This company is a joke.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2026-08-24, version 30.8*

They update it and it gets rid of your wallet

### 1/5 — Destroyed a good thing

*2026-08-22, version 30.8*

The app had so many more settings and the ability to add custom tokens and networks. Now the app is trash. Even the small period of time where you could use the social media version of the app was good and now it’s trash.

### 1/5 — Not User Friendly and finding your current assets from old app is ridiculous

*2026-08-22, version 30.8*

I am not an imbecile when it comes to wallets but I feel like one with base. You wanted to produce an all in one “everything but the kitchen sink” app but you skipped the part that makes it easy for your current customers. 
I don’t care about social connections or to see what others on your app are trading lol. I do like to sign on and see my assets and totals.

### 1/5 — Terrible app to deal with

*2026-08-20, version 30.8*

Interface is not meant for real people :/

### 1/5 — Stole my cryptocurrency

*2026-08-20, version 30.8*

I updated the app and my DogeCoin and Litecoin no longer is in my account. When I imported my wallet to a new app my DogeCoin was not imported.

### 1/5 — Update killed

*2026-08-06, version 30.6*

New update ruined app

### 5/5 — Most exceedingly remarkable extremely exceptional cryptocurrency recovery technology expertise

*2026-08-29, version 30.9*

I just got here and it reminds me of one of the greatest expert I have seen in my life who I also met through the review of a stranger when i almost lost my funds, it happen that someone I met online few months ago deceived me into investing in an online cryptocurrency platform. my first three investments was successful but / never knew it was a trap, I then decided to invest bigger amount to make massive profits, when my investment was over, it was time to take my profits, I was told to pay a fee, l paid it because I felt my profit was enough to cover it up, but I was wrong, I never realised that these are scammers till | lost all my funds, i even has to borrow, long story cut short I lost over $915k in the company, contacted the person that referred me but she never replied which, the whole situation got me really depressed to some extent. I started looking for solutions and that's when I got into looking out for a genius expert team who could be of help, Luckily enough came across (FORENSICRECOVERY01@ gMailcom) from an online review, 1 messaged him through his email and I explained everything that happened to him and he assured me to be of help. he assured me to be of help. I trusted him even that moment | was vulnerable, he requested for my wallet for transfer of my lost money and he did get all my lost funds back with ease. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Best in the field.

*2026-08-19, version 30.8*

I need to share this in here so you won't lose your money cheaply to scam brokers. I invested about $123,050 on a binary option platform then I decideo to withdraw after several weeks but the withdrawal wasn't successtul, then I tried to contact the platform via email and phone number, I didn't get a response from them that was when everything started looking weird. Some weeks later I got a mail from them insisting I should invest more money if l want to withdraw my money which I rejected, and! never hear from them again that was when I knew I had been scammed. I was really devastated at those moment and felt so bad that my hard earned money was gone. After some months I came across a lot of testimonies on the web how ForensicRecovery01 at gmail, com had helped many people recovered their stolen, scammed or duped money on bitcoin or any other form in digital currency. I contacted them and they promised to help me get my money back asked me some info about the scammer which I provided. The result was amazing I recovered all my stolen money back in hours I was so happy as! never believe I could get my money back. Thanks to FORENSICRECOVERY01 via gMail. Com you restore my happiness as I could see my funds in my wallet. Thank you.

### 5/5 — A nobody

*2026-08-05, version 30.6*

Why not try it, every thing you download usually just steals your money or scams you…. Why not try base… can’t be any different than anything else us sheep get

### 5/5 — Base is freedom.

*2026-07-14, version 30.3*

I have never met a more receptive, supportive, and encouraging platform community. 

From those at Coinbase who were a part of incubating and giving us Base, to the team, the builders, and the community members onchain- Base really is for everyone. Thanks for being a place to meaningfully be. 

To tinker, with apps like Bard and Ozmium, or to swap and learn trading for finance or collectible markets. Even with the world split on crypto as a net good, I think the things that happen on here showcase the latter. 💙
