Pls help! ### 1/5 — Wont let me sign up *2024-01-06, version 1.9.1* I know it’s not an issue on my end because it’s been a problem others have also been having. Fix your app, nobody can sign up. ### 1/5 — CEO is a bit of a weirdo. *2024-01-02, version 1.9.1* Ceo(who btw is not a child) who runs an app completely full of children or ppl who js half there age,is jus a bit weird,false bans,tries to recreat what vine and tiktok has and makes false accusations towards people with the SAME excuse of bullying disabled people.he is disgusting and u should NOT support this app nor the CEO ### 1/5 — Would give a 0 *2023-12-30, version 1.9.1* Tried to make a account and asked for my number. I did it but it did not send. And I don’t have Snapchat. Pretty supid so ask for something not everyone has. So I asked a friend if I could use their still nothing. A dumb stupid buggy app does not even work ### 1/5 — Horrible *2023-12-25, version 1.9.1* I would give this 0 stars but I can’t, I try to make an account then it ask for verification so I put my number in to send the code, doesn’t then I try Snapchat, just takes me to the camera tried about 6 times nothing happened ### 1/5 — why can’t I sign up *2023-12-24, version 1.9.1* I was signing up and it has been going smoothly until I had to put my phone number, I put my phone number and I tried to verify through Snapchat it did not work, it only re directed me to my snap chat and that didn’t do anything, I don’t know if I’m missing something there. I tried to verify through sms and it has not sent anything to my phone number and I tried many time and I’ve also checked if i put the wrong phone number and it has NOT sent anything. One star cuz I can’t even use the app. ### 1/5 — The login process is glitched *2023-12-17, version 1.9.1* I put in my phone number and it doesn’t send a code, and when I select Snapchat verify, it brings me to the app and does nothing ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2023-12-12, version 1.9.1* Look at the most recent reviews. This app hasn't worked for months and still isn't fixed. Verifying by Snapchat does nothing, and no one is getting verification codes when they enter their phone numbers 👎🏼 plus calling people 28+ boomers is wild. I'm only 22 so it doesn't apply to me but I was like ummmm yikes ### 4/5 — Idk *2023-11-29, version 1.9.1* How do I verify my account it won’t let me ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — DO NOT *2025-06-12, version 1.9.2* It was really fun at first u till i kept getting tons of fake profiles with all the same bio saying “u” or something similar trying to pose as a minor and talk to other minors while clearly taking pics off of google just be safe ! ### 1/5 — idk *2024-08-23, version 1.9.2* idk ### 1/5 — Poor 😭💀 *2024-05-20, version 1.9.1* It doesn’t even let me type an username and kept on saying “cannot check username at this time” please fix this issue for me. ### 1/5 — Um *2024-04-07, version 1.9.1* I don’t know where to start first of all I tried signing up by phone number but it never sent me a code so I tried about 10 times still didn’t work then I tried the Snapchat one and it never worked ### 1/5 — Login *2024-03-17, version 1.9.1* I cant seem to log in as no code is sent to me and Snapchat doesn’t work ### 1/5 — Why is this happening *2024-02-23, version 1.9.1* I downloaded it and it wouldn’t even process my phone number to verify me. ### 1/5 — ) : *2024-02-21, version 1.9.1* It's not allowing me to make an account because it won't send the verification text and I done it at least 6 times ### 1/5 — Verification? *2024-02-11, version 1.9.1* i have re installed this app so many times it’s ridiculous all because i cant get past the phone verification stage i type my phone number in and press verify it does nothing i press the send a code it doesn’t send a code i press verify snapchat it only opened my snapchat onto camera i don’t understand what it wants me to do it wont let me verify my number or my snapchat and why isn’t it sending me a code? ### 1/5 — silly *2024-02-07, version 1.9.1* did everything, and cant even make a username without ‘username cannot be checked’ , deleted and redownloaded and it is still not working. ### 1/5 — Registering *2024-02-06, version 1.9.1* I can’t make an account.
