I thought you could meet new people on the app I was severely wrong. ### 3/5 — Group Message *2026-05-16, version 1.0.4* We cant see who send the message, please do fix it for us to enjoy the friendster group message ### 3/5 — Not working with adding friends yet *2026-04-30, version 1.0.1* Im looking forward to have this but somehow we cannot add friends ### 5/5 — Need improvements *2026-04-30* Hopefully it will be a nostalgic feeling! Would be nice if we couod custom our profiles again!. ### 5/5 — Feels like I’m in the void *2026-04-30* I don’t think there ain’t much people downloading Friendster yet and so far it’s quiet and nice. Didn’t see any ads or recommended people on my feed yet. It’s nice and refreshing if you ask me. ### 5/5 — I believe this will be good. *2026-04-30* But bow about our families abroad? ### 5/5 — Too basic *2026-04-30, version 1.0.1* Bring back classic Friendster ### 5/5 — Nice app *2026-04-30* Where real friends connect! ### 5/5 — Welcome back! *2026-04-30* Looking forward to it! ### 3/5 — Theme! *2026-04-30, version 1.0.1* Bring back theme and music ### 5/5 — 1st review *2026-04-29, version 1.0.1* I was excited to download right after I heard the news that FRIENDSTER is back! Brings back the old social media memories. ### 5/5 — Happy with this! *2026-04-29, version 1.0.1* nothing much, add me Chefzoldyck_ hahahaha ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Can’t reconnect *2026-07-08* You can’t search for people here that you want to reconnect with. ### 1/5 — Not what it used to be in 2002 *2026-06-24* It’s iPhone based users only lol not really useful if you don’t have friends Friendster is not what it used to be in 2002 you have to be physically in person to bring each other’s phones together (technically like apple pay where you tap) in order to add people ### 1/5 — NOT WORKING! *2026-05-28, version 1.0.8* How can you remake FRIENDSTER that the app itself is not working! 10 👎 ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2026-05-02, version 1.0.2* It doesn't work! ### 1/5 — What about the old post and photos ?? *2026-05-01* My old photo ?? ### 1/5 — Review *2026-05-01, version 1.0.2* Atleast suggest people that are on here. And bring back theme and music. Shouldn't have named this FRIENDSTER because it's literally nothing like the original Friendster. It's a dead social media app. It's just like imessage with feeds. ### 1/5 — Bring the old friendster *2026-04-30, version 1.0.1* It’s useless . It’s so boring .I wish they’d just bring back how it used to be.” ### 1/5 — Is this app operational? *2026-04-30, version 1.0.1* I will change this review later if this app improves. But so far it seems dead. Your account gets deleted whenever you log out. Nothing else to do but edit your bio. I was excited for this as I was a Friendster user from 2004. ### 1/5 — App Not Working *2026-04-29, version 1.0* Feed loading error. ### 1/5 — Server is very slow. *2026-04-29* The server is slower than dial-up in 2005. Also, where’s the personality? No custom backgrounds, no autoplay music, what is this, a personality free zone? The original Friendster had more flair. Do better. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Better old version *2026-05-13* I suggest add more feature from old version of friendster like can customized the layout and many more. ### 5/5 — Friendster Member back in 2003 *2026-05-03* I always wished this time would come. Friendster is back. For me this is a long cook app. I have zero friends in it and haven’t even invited my wife to sign up just yet. But I’ll keep it installed and build it up slowly - just like in the old days. Back then social media was simple and Friendster served it perfectly. It didn’t try to be anything more than a plain social media until that time it overhauled itself to become a site focused on games. With the boom of Facebook, Friendster’s quick decline came which eventually lead to its demise. I’ve lost a lot of valuable photos as a result. But now it’s here and I am just so glad that it is. I hope more people come aboard and make it flourish in a new time. This isn’t a testimonial, it’s just a heartfelt gratitude to a lost era that I’m sure a lot of people have missed. ### 5/5 — Is it back? *2026-05-03, version 1.0.3* Waiting for Friendster on Android phone. I was on Friendster years ago when it was created. Hope this new Friendster app will be much better. ### 5/5 — Compliments *2026-05-02, version 1.0.2* Amazing app ### 5/5 — Good start *2026-05-01* Can we have the ability to edit our background profile and add musics like it used to? Musics, gifs,photos, and profile themes. ### 5/5 — Perfect for introverts like me! *2026-05-01* This is perfect for introverts like me! I hope you continue adding more features and keep this app available 💕 ### 5/5 — For real life friends *2026-05-01, version 1.0.2* App for introverts lol, I miss the old style of friendster ### 5/5 — Finally It is back! *2026-04-30* Please bring back the customization too 😍 ### 5/5 — Hello! Anybody here? *2026-04-30, version 1.0.2* I’m alone here in this page, feels like I’m in the island with nobody else but me. ### 5/5 — Wow *2026-04-30, version 1.0.1* cheers 🤩🤩🤩🤩 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
