### 3/5 — Très bonne application

*2026-05-20*

C’est une application complète avec l’ensemble des fonctionnalités nécessaires pour les créateurs. Par contre, je ne comprends pas pourquoi une si bonne application n’offre pas la possibilité de changer de langue. Nous qui ne sommes pas aussi bonne application n’offre en anglais avons vraiment du mal à en profiter.

### 2/5 — App keeps crashing

*2026-03-14, version 1.15.0*

This app is almost useless. Continually crashes and sits on l oh adding screen endlessly. Needs to be fixed

### 2/5 — Not the best app

*2026-01-29, version 1.15.0*

I’m really not impressed when trying to build appointments on this app it bugs out on changing from heading to paragraph and vise Versa. Small little things like this and not up to date analytics on website and phone is disappointing!

### 1/5 — Won’t let me cancel subscription

*2026-01-21*

The app is having problems loading the plans and payment page and so I went online and it won’t let me cancel my subscription cause it keeps saying it’s not working. Figure it out then?? Also I tried contacting customer service and surprise surprise, I can’t do that either. I’d give 0 stars for continuing to steal my money and not letting me cancel but one will have to do.

### 2/5 — So frustrating and disappointing

*2026-01-07*

For the second time now, I’m extremely frustrated with Beacons. Last month I paid for the $30 plan, and the month before that I paid for the Pro plan plus the custom domain (which I paid for yearly).
My Pro plan was still active, but I canceled it only to stop the next payment. Instead, I immediately lost all Pro benefits, even though I had already paid for the current month and still had 5 days left. I assumed I’d be able to use what I paid for until the billing period ended, but that wasn’t the case.
On top of that, the custom domain I paid for for the entire year was removed as well. I paid for a year, yet it disappeared the moment I canceled the Pro plan. Now my store can’t even be found anymore.
This experience has been incredibly frustrating and disappointing. Everything just seems to keep getting worse with Beacons, and at this point I’m seriously considering switching to Stan Store instead.

### 1/5 — Slow App

*2026-01-07, version 1.15.0*

this app is soooo slow on mobile & ipad. It load everytime i open the app. Wifi is completely fine. I have to constantly swipe up the app & reopen it just for it to work. I can’t connect my payments because the button isn’t even working. For a first time user this sucks. This app needs SO much improvement, i’d prefer shopify.

### 1/5 — Sus

*2026-01-04, version 1.15.0*

Upon downloading the app tried to access your Apple ID like it has a key logger. I do not recommend this. Please take care of your personal information. I don’t know why Apple allows these products in its market. It is acting very fishy.

### 1/5 — Trop de bug!!

*2026-01-03*

A chaque fois que je veux mettre le prix ou le titre d'un produits digital il s'enlève tout seul c'est horrible

### 3/5 — Can’t pass sign in

*2025-12-27, version 1.15.0*

Decided to try this but the app won’t go further than the sign in loading screen.

### 2/5 — Not good for multiple accounts

*2025-11-09*

I have multiple accounts and linking to Instagram or Meta is creating problems because it keeps disconnecting the other accounts and for each account I have to keep reconnecting it which I know will disconnect the other accounts.  It is ridiculous if you are trying to monitor analytics.

### 3/5 — Where’s is my pro

*2025-10-29, version 1.15.0*

I didn’t $10 on the beacons pro and still didn’t get nothing not even my domain it just took my money I either need my money back or my pro that I paid for please

### 1/5 — Work on it

*2025-10-23, version 1.15.0*

Can’t sign in on my phone this app have a bug

### 4/5 — Bug fix please

*2025-10-08, version 1.15.0*

Can't upload link in bio picture please fix

### 1/5 — Toujours des problèmes de connexion

*2025-09-27*

Beug continuellement, donc bloquer je peut même pas voir mon compte . C’est inadmissible surtout si on travaille avec .

### 3/5 — Confusion on Media Uploading

*2025-08-07*

I initially used the Beacons website as an efficient way to organize my links and create an appealing landing page for customers. However, I encountered some confusion when attempting to upload images. The website prompted me to “get started by adding a Beacons app,” which I assumed referred to the app itself. Unfortunately, opening the media section within the app led to the same message. I would appreciate assistance on how to effectively upload images within the platform. Thank you!

**Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for the thoughtful feedback! We’ve passed this along to our engineering team, and the language in that section has been updated to be clearer. If you’re still unsure about uploading images, feel free to reach out to support@beacons.ai, we’re happy to walk you through it!

### 1/5 — Impossible à me connecter

*2026-08-04*

J ai créé mon compte sur mon mac et je veux installer l application sur mon iPhone. L appli ne reconnaît pas mes identifiants ou mot de passe.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2026-06-25, version 1.15.0*

This is is so messed up when trying to register. It either redirect you back to the screen, says user attempt failed, or gives you a different error. I tried for 20 minutes and gave up wasting my time.

### 1/5 — App and Website don’t work

*2026-06-25*

The app and website are not working for me as far as viewing all brand partners and case studies.  When I click on the “show more” arrows for both sections, nothing happens so there is no way for a brand to view all partners or see all case studies. Please advise on if this is a known issue and when this can be fixed.  It has been this way for some time now. Also it is super frustrating that there is no way to contact support other than an email.  Furthermore I just received a response to my email asking for help on this and it said the entire team is gone at a convention for 10 days and I’d hear back from them after that…so unprofessional.

### 1/5 — Constantly doesn’t work

*2026-06-23*

Nothing more frustrating than a customer clicking the link in your bio and your storefront doesn’t load and gives an error message. Great way to lose business. And the app doesn’t function properly either. If you click on different tabs within the app, you’re given a blank white page with no option to click on anything and have to do a hard shutdown and then reopen to reboot it. Taking my business elsewhere.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-06-20, version 1.15.0*

Now I know why beacons AI has a horrible review lags to much does not connect to my links completely always errors

### 1/5 — Cant even log in

*2026-06-02, version 1.15.0*

This app and site in the web browser is junk. I tried everything to log in. Troubleshooting for days with their “technical support” and nothing fixed it. Not good business when you can even log into your account. Never again.

### 1/5 — Started great, got worse with more AI

*2026-05-18*

Getting a response to support requests is next to impossible and my app/link has been unreliable for over a week now. I removed my data and deleted my account today. Increased reliance on AI has rendered this app virtually unusable. I’d rather spend hours building a link in bio on my own website than trying to continue working with this one.

### 1/5 — Compte

*2026-05-09*

Impossible de créer un compte que ce soit avec l’application, sur le site web directement.. chargement infini, aucun réception de mail.

### 1/5 — Can’t even sign in

*2026-03-11, version 1.15.0*

Can’t even sign in and I’m lucky if the app loads right now, I am on 2gb WiFi and the app still nada

### 1/5 — NOT USER FRIENDLY AT ALL

*2026-03-08, version 1.15.0*

I am an up-and-coming author. I have books on Amazon Barnes & Noble, all these things and so I was trying to maybe do just a simple link or they can buy it there, but it won't even allow me to make it past the first step. I put my username for I'm on the social media platforms, it says not acceptable. It says it accepts it, but still doesn't accept it. Then when I try to put the link into it instead, it tells me that it is too long! Y'all need to just go ahead and get rid of this bc this is crazy!! it should never be that hard to do something so simple so I understand why people go to Linkbio because this does not make any sense

### 5/5 — Easy to use for new creators

*2026-06-06*

Beacons has become the hub of my entire online business. I use it to capture leads, deliver freebies, automate emails, promote my offers, and keep everything organized in one place. As someone who values simple systems and practical technology, I love that Beacons makes it easy to create landing pages, build funnels, and launch new offers without needing a complicated tech stack. It has saved me time, streamlined my workflow, and helped me create a better experience for my audience. If you’re a creator, entrepreneur, or small business owner looking for an easy-to-use all-in-one platform, I highly recommend Beacons.

### 5/5 — Love Beacons

*2025-12-01, version 1.15.0*

I fully recommend this app.

### 5/5 — Perfect but can you please add the store pro to be $24.99 a month

*2025-07-26, version 1.15.0*

Simply Because of the memberships & Stan store is $29 a month beacons $1 more.
Also please add 1 memberships for free but 12% seller fees. To upsell people to store pro. 
& make pro 5% seller fees.

### 5/5 — Does it’s job well

*2024-12-31, version 1.13.0*

Does what it says and lots of customisation options.

### 5/5 — Love!

*2024-12-03*

I was using LinkTree for years, but they recently changed some things and I was wasn't able to use features that I was using before. With Beacon, I was able to do those features & more. I feel like this app has more customization options than LinkTree with the free version. I'm obsessed, definitely recommend!
