Please fix it ASAP thanks ### 1/5 — Crashes can’t even create account *2024-08-25* Don’t waste your time with us you put in an email you go through all the trouble it shuts down. I don’t understand how it has such a good rating when you can’t even create an account. Bummer I was looking forward to trying something new. ### 1/5 — Couldn’t even get started *2024-05-10* Any app that errors out while you’re trying to sign up is not worth the time. That’s all, that’s the review ! ### 5/5 — Taillineysi *2020-06-15, version 2.1.15* Taillineysi ### 1/5 — I’d give it 0 if I could. *2020-01-31* Another app that seems to limit the ability to delete an account. I signed up for 5 minutes to try it, didn’t like it, spent 35 minutes trying to figure out how to delete my account, then decided to give it a review since deleting an account doesn’t seem to be an option. At least I can delete the app. ### 1/5 — No option to delete account *2019-12-28, version 2.1.15* No visible way inside the app. ### 1/5 — Email sign-up doesn’t work *2019-08-20, version 2.1.15* Email sign-up doesn’t work. Please fix this and maybe I will download the app again and try it. I don’t like signing up with Facebook. ### 2/5 — Cool concept but a few things... *2018-10-21* I was expecting the circle idea from google plus but that isn’t the case. If I could use it more, maybe I could make a better review but it’s also extremely slow at loading, even over WiFi. ### 2/5 — UI is Buggy *2018-07-07, version 2.1.11* The UI is very buggy on an iPhone X. ### 2/5 — Can’t post *2018-03-29* So I thought this would be a way to share news articles and posts like maybe a better version of Pinterest. But apparently not—I am limited to what shows up in my feed from the developers. They suggest I “trust” people but all I can see is their picture and their “likes.” Since there are so few topics to choose from, everyone seems to like everything, so what is the point of trusting/following someone? I only see two new posts since yesterday. And one of them has a really gross picture of parasites that I’d rather not see again so I’d prefer to delete it but I don’t appear to have that option. Very disappointing to put all this effort in developing an app that has such little usability. **Developer response:** Dear WendySnap, we are sorry to read about your disappointment. Your feedback is useful and we will learn from them to improve the app in the future versions. To help a bit though, we can suggest a couple of things: (1) you are able to post your own article by clicking on the '+' icon on the bottom right of the screen in the Main Feed (if you do that, you will see some options and the one you are looking for is "Start a Conversation") - sorry for the confusion this might have caused; (2) regarding the few posts that you see, perhaps it is because you do not Like (or To-Do) enough interests that we have content for - try to SEARCH for something/someone you Like and once you do some new Likes, check on the Main Feed: we are confident you will see much more content appearing. Hope this helps. In the meantime though we will pass your feedback to the rest of the product team to make sure we work on better versions of the app. Thanks so much for providing such feedback! ## Frequently asked questions about CircleMe ### What does CircleMe do?
