### 3/5 — Request

*2024-12-04, version 5.31.4*

Is there a way to translate Latvian to English. Or is there a better way. Please advise.

### 4/5 — Good app, could be better though

*2020-01-18, version 5.26.3*

Enjoy the app, been using it for years, pretty much since it was first launched. I see it is becoming very much like a Latvian copy of Facebook now which is not necessary a bad thing. Unfortunately there are way too many things you have to pay for, I don’t care about the statistics and who has viewed my profile (that comes with a fee to it by the way), but even on Christmas to send a virtual Christmas treat to someone you are charged. Then several times a year you are enrolled in these various schemes for example for st valentine -someone is winking at you, yet to see who you have to pay ? I mean just don’t even bother, I use the app less each year now for the fact that Facebook is all free and so much easier

### 2/5 — Reti lietojams portals

*2018-04-29, version 5.17.7*

Nav aktuals!

### 3/5 — Pss

*2017-11-10, version 5.14.2*

Rāda, ka neizlasīju jaunumus, bet tās ir kaut kādas tupas spēles, ko es nekad neizmantošu.

### 4/5 — Draugiem

*2017-05-05, version 5.8.3*

It's ok, no online chatting ... slow

### 3/5 — Dāvanas

*2016-03-20, version 5.3.2*

Aizsūtu publisku dāvanu bet vina neradās cilvēkiem uz bildēm. Diezgan kaitinoši!

### 4/5 — This is stupid

*2016-03-05, version 5.3.2*

I can't flipping log in I can log in to safari even though my password and email is right why the heck I can't log in !?!?!?!?!?!?!?

### 2/5 — Grr

*2015-10-15, version 5.1.1*

Hiw do I register. Plsss anyone??

### 2/5 — Draugiem apps

*2015-09-09, version 5.0.12*

Nav ta labāka mobile app neko nevar darīt ir tikai basic staff!

### 2/5 — Nepatīk

*2015-08-31, version 5.0.11*

Ļoti nepilnvērtīga versija. Bieži logojos iekšā pilnajā versijā, lai apskatītu piem domubiedru grupas vai ielādētu galeriju. Daudz kas jāpilnveido.

### 4/5 — Neslikti

*2015-08-22, version 5.0.11*

Bet dažreiz liekas ka varētu būt labāk

### 4/5 — Draugiem.lv

*2015-08-11*

Lai apskatītu draugu bilžu galerijas ir jānorūdās ar pacietību. Ļoti lēni. Man personīgi nav pacietības apskatīt visu draugu jaunākās bildes.

**Developer response:** Sveiki!

Esam būtiski uzlabojuši ātrdarbību. Vai problēma joprojām ir aktuāla?

### 2/5 — Nepatiik

*2015-07-14, version 5.0.8*

### 5/5 — Great app

*2015-05-11, version 5.0.4*

*2021-12-18, version 5.30.1*

Suds pēdējais , negribu visas spēles spēlēt,bet no telefona atslēgt nevar. Kad pat huinju?

### 1/5 — Dr.lv

*2018-05-03, version 5.17.7*

Shis saits ir palicis parak dargs par visu vienmer jamaksa un kada jega ja var izmantot mustdienas alternativus vebsaitus kuros nebus jamaksa ;)

### 1/5 — Big L

*2018-01-06, version 5.16.0*

Garbage aplication, this crap bout to for off

### 1/5 — Albums

*2017-09-16, version 5.12.4*

Nav iespējams labot vai pievienot aprakstu ieliktajam albumam. Lūdzu sakārtojiet!!!

### 1/5 — Reklāmas kā paziņojumi??!!?

*2016-06-24, version 5.3.8*

Kāpēc reklāmas sadaļā "draugiem.lv piedāvā" tiek rādīti kā paziņojumi? Pat ja nav kā notifications, vienalga rāda sarkanu aplīti pie app ikonas.. Nu priekš kam tas ir vajadzīgs? Un lai tas pazustu, man tagad jālasa katrs tas štrunts, vai vismaz jāatver.. Diezgan nesmuka prakse un neko citu kā izmest app un nelietot šo, jau tā grimstošo pasākumu, nemaz negribas.

### 1/5 — You shouldn't be in business

*2015-06-14, version 5.0.6*

Your service is terrible and my freedoms and rights in your portal is always violated ..exist privacy issues ..and I know you not gonna learn or care what people suggest ..just "bad news "that's all you are .. You think you can make money and find idiots who pay .. You lucky you still have some .

### 1/5 — Ms

*2015-05-01, version 5.0.4*

Crap! Daudz kas jāmaksā un no ārzemēm daudz ko nevar izdarīt, jo nav vietējais pieslēgums! Kā arī nav iespējams ielikt videos! Pilnīgs sūds!

### 1/5 — Domubiedri

*2015-04-28, version 5.0.4*

1) domubiedru grupas vēljoprojām grūti atrast.
2) domubiedru grupa "Liepāja-Rīga-Liepāja" vēljoprojām ir parasts forums, nevis vairs ērts rīks ceļabiedru meklēšanā. Un, attiecīgi, šīs app vajadzība manai lietošanai pietuvinājās 0. :(
3) bīdot ekrāna skatu hz augšu un leju, ekrāns raustās tā itkā FrameRate būtu 12 vai vēl mazāk

### 1/5 — Useless app.

*2015-04-26, version 5.0.3*

Not sure why someone would use this app. Cluttered menu, annoying color. I better stick to facebook and twitter. Sorry guys, but it's no, no from me.

### 1/5 — Lost access to Friends Galleries

*2015-04-04, version 5.0.2*

Since moving on from web to the app I lost access to all Friends Galleries, which was the main reason for me using Draugiem.lv. Despite contacting customer services, a year later still no response/resolution
