### 2/5 — Videos fail to publish

*2025-12-19, version 3.9.4*

Videos that you schedule for tik tok or Facebook fail to publish almost everytime. Not worth any subscription unless they fix that.

### 3/5 — Gutes Tool aber vieles nur über Desktop möglich

*2024-07-05, version 3.6.4*

Ich hatte das Abo für ein Jahr und mochte die App sehr gerne. Letztendlich habe ich aber gekündigt da ich meist meine Social Media Aktivitäten ohne Computer betreibe, da ich viel unterwegs bin. Leider waren die für mich interessantesten Features in der Mobile App nicht möglich. Ich fand die Ideengenerierung und das kreative Brainstorming toll. In der Mobile App kann man lediglich die Hashtag und Schedulingfunktion nutzen, so dass ich für Post- Ideen dann doch immer wieder auf andere generative KI zurückgreifen musste. Das hat sich dann auf die meiste Zeit des Jahres ausgewirkt und sich finanziell gar nicht mehr gelohnt. Blöd war auch, dass man mit dem Handy immer automatisch in die App geroutet wurde und nicht die Möglichkeit bestand die Desktop Ansicht zu wählen. Ich habe mehrmals die Entwickler angeschrieben und gefragt, ob sie denn die App auf alle Features ausweiten könnten oder es zumindest planen. Ob sie den Mobile Zwang aufheben könnten. Leider war dies laut Entwickler zu diesem Zeitpunkt nicht geplant und somit habe ich das Abo dann gekündigt. Insgesamt eine tolle App, aber für Leute, die meist an ihrem Handy arbeiten, was bei Social Media meist der Fall ist, suboptimal.

### 2/5 — Idea is nice

*2024-05-27, version 3.6.4*

The mobile app does not work to connect any of the socials, I’ve tried many times. I’m going to keep trying but so far not good.

### 4/5 — I love flick BUT

*2024-04-10, version 3.6.4*

The app lacks the features and customization you get on desktop. I would like to be able to schedule stories through the app and see an IG feed preview, but these are only available on desktop. A proper app would have all the same features you get on desktop (or highly used ones at least).

### 4/5 — If you’re a content creator, get it

*2024-04-01, version 3.6.4*

Great for influencers and content creation. The AI is super helpful and the hashtag feature is great!
The app has some limitations but I do see more features when logging in on the desktop version

### 5/5 — When You Hate Marketing 😊

*2023-11-10, version 3.5.5*

Flick takes so much thought out of the chore of SM marketing. And they ask for feedback and actively implement changes. A few hours a week and everything is scheduled, and the AI makes writing and images a breeze.

### 5/5 — Love the AI caption tool

*2023-10-30, version 3.5.5*

Aside from the hashtags, now with the builds in caption tool; it’s a lot easier to creat content. The tools are coming up got me excited! 

The only thing is sometimes give me UK hashtags that are not current to my market. But for the rest; Flick it’s really great!

### 5/5 — BEST FOR AI AND HASHTAGS!

*2023-10-26, version 3.5.5*

I was recently introduced to FLICK by an business course as to better plan and schedule and most importantly have better #hashtag management tools. By far waaaay above their North American counterparts. Do yourself and your brand a favour and just sign up.

### 5/5 — It makes my life so much easier!

*2023-10-16, version 3.5.5*

I started using flick after learning about it through a advertising specialist and I have been in love ever since! The ability to optimize hashtags and pre-schedule all my content has saved me hours of work each month. It is well worth the investment and I would recommend it to anyone who is an online business owner or content creator.

### 5/5 — A big help with my Instagram posts

*2023-10-16, version 3.5.5*

The app works flawlessly and is a source of inspiration for my posts. The stats are also very useful and even though AI is still not very good when it comes to produce meaningful images, I’m confident it will get better and better.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Don’t Subscribe - scammers

*2026-07-30, version 3.9.4*

I would strongly advise against subscribing to Flick.

For the past couple of years, I’ve been trying to cancel my subscription after losing access to my account. Despite multiple attempts, I was unable to access my account to manage or cancel my membership, yet I continued to be charged $20 every month.

I contacted support explaining that I had previously used two Instagram accounts and could no longer access the account associated with my subscription. I also explained that I had been experiencing financial hardship and had only discovered the recurring charges while preparing several years of tax returns. I asked for help regaining access, canceling the subscription, and reviewing whether any reimbursement was possible.

Unfortunately, my issue was never resolved, and the recurring charges continued.

A company should not continue billing customers who are unable to access their accounts and have repeatedly asked for assistance canceling their subscriptions. Based on my experience, the cancellation process was extremely frustrating, and customer support did not resolve the problem.

I would not recommend this service. I still am unable to cancel.

### 1/5 — Flick’s support team don’t work on weekends

*2025-03-21, version 3.9.4*

That’s right, they don’t work weekends. Lucky them! Not so good for us…

I wasted so much time on an issue with their platform which they were not able to support with. 

On top of that, their platform is clunky. For example, once you have scheduled a post on multiple platforms, if you want to make edits, you have to edit each post, for each platform individually. 

Flick don’t cover analytics for LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter/X, Pinterest, TikTok and YouTube (to mention the major platforms). 

There’s more but the above should be enough to encourage you to look elsewhere.

### 1/5 — ACHTUN BETRÜGER

*2024-11-26, version 3.9.4*

Ich habe meinem Account vor längerer Zeit und Fristgerecht gekündigt und trotzdem wird abgebucht. Auf meine Mails an den Support bekomme ich keine Antwort! So kann ich diese App leider nicht mehr weiterempfehlen!

### 1/5 — Stürzt ständig ab

*2024-11-12, version 3.9.4*

Arbeiten kaum möglich- App stürzt andauernd ab .

### 1/5 — This company is very fraudulent!

*2024-05-18, version 3.6.4*

Bella refuses to refund me on the day payment was taken stating I had to request refund within 3 days when I in fact requested within 6 hours of the payment. I will open a case with my bank for my refund. And leave a review on every PLATFORM there is! Do NOT use them.

### 1/5 — I’d give it zero stars if I could

*2024-05-15, version 3.6.4*

This app is awful and does not have good customer service.

### 1/5 — Possibly a scam

*2024-02-27, version 3.6.4*

Impossible to log in at desktop so you can’t cancel subscription (you can only do it from webbrowser🙃) 

Avoid.

### 1/5 — HACKERS!!! Don’t do it.

*2023-11-13, version 3.5.5*

They took money out of my account after I cancel the app and constantly send me emails. I’ve been blocked them from my bank and they still send me emails that I keep unsubscribing to.

And now I can’t get into my account ever sent them and I’m still locked out on my Instagram. 

HATE THIS COMPANY IS A BUNCH OF CROOKS.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2023-11-03, version 3.5.5*

This company tried to charge me $350 for something I never purchased. Scam! Fortunately it was detected and declined thanks to my Apple account.

### 1/5 — Outdated - bad service

*2023-10-16, version 3.5.5*

I stopped using this app partly because hashtags are much less important and partly due to a job change. They rebilled me for a another year even tho I hadn’t logged in for 6 months. I thought I’d cancelled but it seems I hadn’t. I contacted them as soon as it was charged to ask for a refund. They hid behind their terms insisting they have to take a full years payment. They offered 50% off but it’s just as annoying to pay half price for a service I’m not using or going to use.

### 5/5 — FLICKIN GOOD

*2025-05-13, version 3.9.4*

Flick is hands down the best hashtag research service out there. The app is pretty dope, too. I wish the app had as many features as their website, but I’m sure it will soon. Love the AI features on web!

### 5/5 — We’re in love

*2024-12-15, version 3.9.4*

We love this app, it’s amazing and has helped build our business.

### 5/5 — I love flick!

*2024-06-19, version 3.6.4*

The app helps me evaluate my content so that I can get better results.

### 5/5 — Great tool for researching  's

*2024-04-01, version 3.6.4*

I love seeing which posts rank on which hashtags.  I really helps me decide what to post where.  I'll say the software is easier to use on your desktop to take advantage of all of the benefits.  It is great to be able to check in through the app though.

I had a little difficulty setting everything up on my own, but the support was awesome!  Got things working straight away!

### 5/5 — The best hashtag research tool hands down!

*2024-03-31, version 3.6.4*

Flick is a great tool to find and track hashtags. It saves a lot of time that you would have to spend manually searching on Instagram and TikTok. It’s a must have if you’re taking your social media seriously.

### 5/5 — Ease of use and clarity around hashtags

*2023-12-22, version 3.6.2*

I’m loving this. I never really understood hashtags and implementing them in a way that was calculated and intentional, until Flick! I love seeing the positive impact I’m getting, as well as the momentum from being strategic with hashtags and captions. And seeing the analytics in Flick to support my efforts.

### 5/5 — A MUST-HAVE to look after my sanity 🤪

*2023-11-24, version 3.5.6*

As a busy businesswoman this helps me apply an element of logic to my strategy, Marketing will always have an element of trial and error, but this app provides vital information, cuts out the 💩, and helps to increase activity, engagement and sales. I think you know that I recommend it.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-11-22, version 3.5.6*

Anyone using social media for business needs to use this app. It’s strength with hashtags is amazing. I highly recommend it.

### 5/5 — Great experience

*2023-11-16, version 3.5.6*

As a social media manger I have not found anything else that helps with hashtags the way this app does. The desktop version is better but I’m sure over time the app will also get more features. Highly recommend.

### 5/5 — The best scheduler out there!

*2023-11-14, version 3.5.5*

Honestly, I’ve tried so many scheduling apps and this is the best by far. For the money you pay, you get sooo many more features than anyone else, and they’re super useful. The ideas brainstorming, hashtags, and AI caption generator are my favourite features. This makes my life so much easier!
