Top reviews

annoying

10 million unnecessary pop ups when you sign up just for the app to tell you that you need to invite a certain amount of people to use the damn appšŸ’€deleted immediately

Annoying

It’s ridiculous that I can’t upload photos without adding a caption, or that I can’t review a place that hasn’t been indexed or categorized. Stop trying to be yelp and just let me post my food pics ffs

Selected crowd reviews

Beli is so much better than any of the other sites or apps one can use to look at other others reviews of restaurants. I can choose to follow people who agree with my previous reviews. I’m not hearing the opinion of people who love restaurants I hate and vice versa. Over the time I’ve used it. I’ve come to trust what my ā€œfriendsā€ rate are more than the other places.

Plus, the other great feature is being able to save the names of restaurants one at another time.

Not so bad

I’m trying to use the app, but I find it annoying that I have to invite friends to unlock new features. It’s frustrating, even though I really love the app’s design. This app just isn’t for people like me. I’m only using it for one specific purpose. Otherwise, I’d probably delete it right away.

Neighborhood search feature?

I love this app so much, but I wish there was a way to search by neighborhood in a city e.g. I want recs in the Flatiron District, Manhattan but I can only search for the entire city of nyc including all boroughs- please fix!

Too many pop up’s and still no own score

Assaulted with pop ups every time you open the app or rate any place, still crazy you can’t just give a restaurant your own rating

Why am I required to nominate people

Got all the way to the screen where I’m required to send to four people. How strange. Get rid of this and you’ll have much more sign-ups.

Love. Make Inviting Friends Requirement Go Away

I live and swear by this app but every one of my friends has it, and I hate that you can’t unlock the extra features without successfully inviting someone.

Makes you sell the app for the them before you can use it

Seriously, they make you add 5 people to the app before you can use it. Absolutely ridiculous.

Scam

You have to invite 5 people just to unlock any features.

Want to be able to add one of my guides as a link in bio

I love this app, I just want people who are not as into food as I am (non-beli users) to be able to see my food guide without having to create a profile. Like I want them to be able to view my food guide in browser. Pretty please. This would be my favourite link in bio.

Pyramid-scheme tactics

Hate that I can’t use all the features unless I do some MLM-level marketing

Probably my Favorite App

I use this app everyday! As a foodie this is a necessity. It is nice to have an organized list with personalized recommendations. Now everyone can be a food critic. This is THE social media app for food.

Extremely biased reviews

I compare there reviews to reviews from actual users on Google Maps and Belli is extremely biased. It seems like Yelp BUT MUCH WORSE

Great app!! One feature issue..

Such a fun app! My most used social media. Easy to personally track places you’ve been or want to go. Fun to see what people you know are eating without the extra social media noise. Has almost every place I’ve looked for

My only complaint is that the average score feature should be a basic feature. You can only access it if you refer someone and that’s one of the main features that I use so I feel bad when friends join and can’t access it. MLM vibe in that sense.. not everyone wants to refer someone and my family members will be less likely to use it if that feature is behind a pay/referral wall

What a scam

ā€œADD 5 CONTACTS TO ACCESS ALL FEATURESā€ Google reviews makes your app obsolete; so stop asking for my grandma, grandpa, and neighbors dog to join the app. Everytime someone texts me to join this app I lose more hope in the world.

Locked features

The app is great expect all the locked features are really annoying especially if you don’t really have anyone to invite

used to be great

Super spammy user interface now. it used to be a novel app (and I’ll probably still keep using it) but it just feels like corporate capitalism and ads. akin to the YouTube post Google acquisition moment.

i’m not bothering my friends for this

any app that makes you invite a minimum number of people before you can use all of its features is not worth using.

Good - could use an adjustment

Could separate Breakfast, lunch, dinner and other miscellaneous spots to get a more accurate rating in comparison to its own kind
