### 1/5 — 이제 ios 낮은 버전도 안막히고 어플 사용하는가 싶었더니 다시 안되는데녀

*2026-08-18*

줫다 뺐기 어디있나요 어이없네 하 넷플도 쿠플도 다 되는데 담캎 안되는게 말이 되나요 저번에 보니 할 수 있는데도 일부러 미지원하는거 같은데 낮은 버전 걍 그대로 사용가능할 수 있도록 좀 해주세요

### 1/5 — ios17

*2026-06-02*

아이폰8로 다음카페앱 이용중이라 이번 업뎃부터 아예 사용못하게 됐습니다. 뭐 많은 기능이 필요한 앱도 아니고 다른 앱 중에도 ios17보다 낮아도 사용가능한 앱이 많은데 왜 갑자기 이런 업뎃을… 다시 버전 낮춰주세요

### 1/5 — 업데이트 버전

*2026-06-01*

안녕하세요 저는 ios 16을 사용 중이고 기종이 오래되어 17을 지원받지 못하는 상태입니다 업데이트를 해야만 어플을 사용할 수 있는데 업데이트는 ios17부터 가능하다고 해서요… ios16도 사용할 방법이 없을까요? 아예 접속을 막는 것보단 구버전이라도 이용 가능하게 해주시면 좋을 것 같아요

### 1/5 — Ios17미만 사용자는

*2026-06-01*

디음 카페 어플 꾸준히 사용해 오다 이번 업글로 앱 사용이 불가능하게 되었습니다. 
ios17이하 앱 유저가 몇이나 되는줄 아십니까? 네이버 구글앱 모두 ios17미만 환경으로 앱을 사용할 수 있습니다. 

디음만 ios17이상이라  그 많고 많은 유저를 잃으신겁니다. Ios 17이하 사용자도 다음앱을 이용할 수 있도록 조취 바랍니다.

### 1/5 — uxui 모르시는건지

*2026-06-01*

앱 아이콘 때문인지 강제업데이트 시킴  이제부터 개밤티 아이콘 보고 살 생각에 앞이 까마득함
다음 아이덴티티 좀 버리라고 여긴 다음 카페라고!!! 빨간로고 돌려달라고 
AI 로 디자인해도 이거보단 나았겠다

### 1/5 — ios17 이하도 되게 해주세요

*2026-06-01*

잘쓰고 있다가 갑자기 ios17 이상만 되는건 뭡니까 구형쓰는 사람들은 쓰지 말라는거에요? 안그래도 다음카페 사람 줄고있으면서 무슨 생각으로 업데이트 한거지

### 1/5 — 절대 업데이트 하지 마세요!

*2026-04-08*

구버전에서 기기 바꾸며 강제로 업뎃되어버렸는데 로그인 툭하면 풀리는 오류 수준 레전드고 검색창 최상단에 광고 덕지덕지 붙은 것도 참 꼴보기싫네요
앱 아이콘 바뀐 것도 밤티고 ui 바뀌어서 댓글수 세자리수만 보이는 것도 구리고 제목 폰트 크기는 또 왜 이렇게 커진건지 진짜 뭔 생각하면서 업데이트 기획을 이렇게 했는지 참 의문~ 이용자 입장은 전혀 생각 안 한 업데이트 올해 제일 후회하는 것 다음카페 업데이트

### 3/5 — 블루투스 키보드 연결해서 테스트 좀 해보세요 제발

*2026-03-07*

블루투스 키보드 연결했을 때 기능들 전체 테스트 좀 해보세요. 아이패드용이면 블투기기들 연결 많이해서 쓰는데 키보드 연결해서 쓸 때 대댓글 기능쓰려고 하면 인풋박스 자체가 안나와요 영역만 나옴… 그리고 댓글쓰고 등록하면 등록은 되는데 쓰고 있던 댓글 영역이 안없어지고 그대로 남아있어요. 이거부터 좀 해결해주세요.

### 1/5 — 이딴 구린앱 첨봄

*2026-02-14*

2026년에 html이 안되는 앱이 있네요 심지어 원래 있던 기능인데 없앴다는 게 포인트.. 진심 후져요

### 1/5 — 로그인조차 안되는앱

*2026-01-29*

다음 카카오라는 이름을 달고 로그인조차 어려운 앱, 간만에 가입했던 카페 들어가보려 로그인 시도헸으나 카카오톡, 아이디 이런저런 접속 시도했으니 돌고도는 허접한 시도의
반복. 이런건 기본중에 기본 아닙니까. 오류인지 뭔지 적어도 이런 과정의 문제가 어떤건지 파악조차 하는지 모르겠네요
