Firstly, although there’s an option to save events, there’s nowhere to find these after they’ve been saved. Also, events are organised in no clear order at all (chronological or location based would be great - maybe an option to see events across a map would be good?). The app also glitches a lot, freezes and also crashes - meaning you have to go back and scroll through loads of events again till you get to where you were. Another thing is if an event poster posts a series of events, they all show up in this list and you have to scroll for ages past them which is really frustrating. Can these please be grouped together? Overall it’s a great premise and really useful, but it does require a lot more extra work from the user’s perspective than it should. ### 2/5 — Worst app ever *2026-07-05, version 4.0.21* Compulsorily ask u to give all the permission you have, otherwise u wouldn’t be able to use the app. U have to give permission to location sharing and notification first before you can enter the page. ### 5/5 — Exceptional events platform *2026-07-02, version 4.0.21* I’ve used this platform as an attendee as well as an events organiser. Everything runs so smooth, payments are on time and I had no issues with anything! Thank you xx ### 5/5 — Wellness community *2026-06-29, version 4.0.21* Nice app . Love the cliq all wellness activities like pilates , tennis and more. You can find any city near you .. they do community event to, i really enjoy it… i hope more community event .. ### 4/5 — Great app to find events and make new friends *2026-06-23, version 4.0.21* I like this app it is great to find social events free or ticketed and meet new people. I’ve been to a few events through finding them on here. The only thing I would say is the UX (user experience) design needs working on. I am unable to view events in a chronological order and I am usually sat there for ages scrolling to find events that are coming up soon. It would be good if you could view events like a calendar so you could easily see what’s happening when! ### 5/5 — So happy I discovered it *2026-06-23, version 4.0.21* Absolutely love the app, does everything I need it to and great way to find different communities ### 3/5 — Privacy issues *2026-06-21, version 4.0.21* I cannot access my tickets without giving my location to the app. The login flow break if I do *not* want to share my location, and the PII. I just want my ticket, I don’t even want to use the app ### 5/5 — Great app for meeting people *2026-06-19, version 4.0.20* Loads of events, lots of collabs with brands so you can get free stuff too. Only thing I would add is a way to filter all events down based on location as I’m currently getting events all over the world in my search results and can’t find a filter! ### 5/5 — Best way to find local events and friends *2026-06-18, version 4.0.20* If you are into wellness, fitness, or just trying new things, this app is a must have. I love how easy it is to look at different communities, from tennis to yoga groups. There is always something happening, and everyone I’ve met has been super welcoming. Highly recommend! ### 5/5 — Asya *2026-06-18, version 4.0.20* Such a great app! I’ve discovered so many interesting events and met lovely people through Cliq. The app is easy to use, well designed, and makes it much less intimidating to try new activities and connect with others. Definitely recommend! ### 5/5 — Fantastic app! *2026-05-08, version 4.0.16* My team and I use this app to post our charity fundraising events, it’s been absolutely fantastic! We love how many tools there are, along with the social network where we can promote our events. ### 3/5 — Run club female founder *2026-04-15, version 4.0.14* I’m a founder of a female run club and I’m new to cliq but any questions or queries I need gets answered by Lucy Wright promptly and efficiently via email. Really appreciate the speedy replies! ### 5/5 — Amazing app for events! *2026-04-01, version 4.0.12* The app is great, very easy to create events and clubs and find other events to attend. The customer support on their Instagram page are so quick and always help with any questions I had. I would 100% recommend for any event hosts! ### 5/5 — I highly recommend *2026-03-13, version 4.0.11* This is a great app, so many resources and opportunities to network and connect. Highly recommend! The team were so quick to make updates on my profile that I wasn’t able to do myself. Great communication and very much on it! ### 5/5 — Best addition to my week! *2026-03-12, version 4.0.11* Through Cliq I’ve made a community for myself in London. It’s been so lovely to meet people in person!!! GREAT IDEA. ### 5/5 — Best app!!! *2026-03-12, version 4.0.11* I was struggling to meet people in a new area and because of CLIQ I have so many new friends and events to go to every week ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Sharing data including your face *2026-07-18, version 4.0.22* You HAVE to use a photo of your face even if you want to remain private. If you don’t your account gets blocked even after putting all of your information in. Furthermore they opening share all of your data with other companies. Do not waste your time and use Meetup instead ### 1/5 — Account blocked for no reason *2026-06-20, version 4.0.21* I am Asian, but my profile photo was judged as inappropriate and my account was blocked. This makes me question whether your moderation system contains racial bias. Because my account was blocked, I could not access my ticket and felt excluded from the very community that was supposed to be inclusive. The experience made very frustrated. After I left my initial review, I received an email from your team. However, it seemed that the real issue was not understood. Instead of acknowledging the possibility that your AI or moderation system may incorrectly flag people from underrepresented racial backgrounds, the response focused on how my low rating had hurt your feelings. The problem is not that I left a negative review. The problem is that your system may be biased, causing innocent users to be unfairly excluded from a queer community space. The fact that this possibility does not appear to have been seriously considered is deeply concerning. I believe this app has a serious issue that needs to be investigated and addressed. ### 1/5 — Too invasive *2026-06-07, version 4.0.19* Tried to buy tickets to an event was forced to download this app. the app then demands that you enable precise location sharing notifications and upload a photograph of yourself before it will proceed any further. Does not give any reasons for why this is needed to simply purchase tickets. ### 1/5 — Photo upload doesnt work *2026-03-05, version 4.0.10* Wont upload my photo correctly then blocked my profile. Fix your code please thanks ### 1/5 — Loading speed *2025-09-02, version 2.1.3* The app is insanely slow ### 1/5 — eh *2025-08-22, version 2.1.2* good concept but the app itself is horrendous omg, so buggy, the UI/UX is terrible. pls fix!!! ### 1/5 — Don’t Bother *2025-07-15, version 2.0.15* Poorly managed and permanently glitchy with 0 effective support. Download better alternatives like Clyx - this Cliq one won’t last long ### 1/5 — Can’t get my tickets SCAM! *2025-07-03, version 2.0.14* Scam and buggy app don’t bother downloading you can’t even get through to them ### 1/5 — App took my money gave no ticket *2025-05-31, version 2.0.12* I booked a ticket to an event paid through app for 2 hrs I could see the ticket in the app with QR code and then the ticket disappeared and they have no option of contacting their customer services worst experience ever !!!!! ### 1/5 — Awful *2025-02-05, version 2.0.4* Signed me out and then didn’t let me sign back in without creating a new profile :( tried deleting the app and reinstalling it, it doesn’t make any difference ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great social app *2026-07-24, version 4.0.23* A fantastic app to find new hobbies, meet new people and connect, especially in a new area. Very easy to use and such a variety of options on the app, highly recommend! ### 5/5 — Incredible experience as an organiser and as an attendee *2026-07-23, version 4.0.23* I have been using cliq to host our charity fundraising events for Empower LATAM UK, and we have had the best experience. Super easy to use and manage the balances and metrics post event - also massive shout out to Lucy W for her support! Every time we had a question we got a super quick response from her. You are a legend. I have also used cliq to attend some community events, super super user friendly but also very easy to find new communities! ### 5/5 — Sunlight Society 💜 CLIQ *2026-07-23, version 4.0.23* Thank you CLIQ for making it possible to run my community.
