5 for Sall’s strength to face the mob
In short, the app is a great concept. In practice, it’s buggy to the point of not working. I don’t know what goes on behind the scenes when making an app, but if Giggle just needs more money in order to hire someone quality developers, I wish a campaign could be launched to do that. Women need this service- services cost money. No one works for free, and a lot of work needs to go into this.

Horrible
They insist the app is only for women. Then call everyone “girls” and block people who they arbitrarily decide aren’t female. With ZERO ability to contest it. Disgusting. This is not OK. This is horrific.
Editing to add that the app ceo brags on Twitter about how she can “effortlessly tell the biological sex” of anyone, and that if someone “violates their terms and conditions” (by not appearing feminine enough, I assume) she personally deletes and blocks the person from the app.
That’s what happened to me.
I passed the selfie AI test, and about 45 minutes into using the app I suddenly was unable to use it at all. Every attempt to log in was answered with a failure message.
I am not trans. I am a cis woman. But I guess I’m too ugly for this app.
Extremely insulting, at the very least. And when I began to discuss this with the ceo on Twitter she called me a troll and blocked me.
She claims she can “always tell”
This is blatant discrimination.
This app should not be allowed on Apple at all.

Can’t even use the app!
I downloaded the app, and when it came to verify my phone number, I resent out the request several times nothing. So a few days later I uninstalled and reinstalled the app and try it again absolutely nothing please do not waste your time with this app. It’s a piece of crap! apparently what people are saying about the app is true because the developers have obviously made it so you can’t even verify your phone number to get on the app.

This is a cult
Don’t let the good reviews fool you. This is a fake feminist app. In truth, this app is just a space where TERFs can gather and hate on people. They are racist, sexist, transphobic and bigoted. They want to imprison socialists and establish a satanic fascist government. And on top of it all, they are paedophiles. I am dead serious. These TERFs will stop at nothing to devour the flesh of stillborn children. They are crazy wicked evil, and they are aroused by the suffering of humanity. They don’t care about women’s rights, or even human rights. All they care about is the destruction of mankind. Listen to the song “Blasphemian” by Infant Annihilator and then look up the lyrics. Those lyrics are a perfect representation of who the TERFs really are. But while they may be evil, they cannot stand against us when we have the power of love and Jesus on our side. Do not let the TERFs poison you mind, leading you astray from live real and progressive ideas.

Cis woman here… you guys are weird
Cis means I was born a girl and I’m still a woman (so what you all of you view as “true female”) and I still HATE this app. The user base will dismiss any opposition as “male”. This is why people don’t take us seriously. You’re all crying wolf while upholding the patriarchy and outdated ideas of “what it means to be a woman”. Being a woman to me goes far beyond having a vagina but congrats to you for dumbing down our experience and continuing to oppress. Garbage people, garbage app. I support women's rights not women's WRONGS. And you all are WRONG.

Wish this were a better app
I really want to like this app but it is just way too buggy for me to recommend. Error messages pop up way too often and swiping tends to have some lag that forces me to quit and restart the app. Plus, it keeps showing me people who are way too far away from me to have meaningful interaction with. I’m assuming this is the result of a small user base. The app just feels way too bloated with too many categories especially since it doesn’t seem like it has a ton of active users in the first place. I feel like it could use some trimming down. As it stands though, I find it really unusable which is a shame.

Fantastic AI
I’m a trans woman, and was immediately approved for access after downloading. Thanks for building such an inclusive app!
Discussions on the app are about 5-10 power users commenting on everything/posting everything. The app crashed 4 times in the span of my first 15 minutes browsing it, and there’s obvious issues with the facial AI. Good luck picking up a gender critical mass of users to launch a new social network!

Terrible UI
I like the idea. Every other app that caters exclusively to women eventually gets turned into something different.
But the UI is terrible. Tinder is successful because the UI is simple: See something you like, swipe right. See something you don’t like: Swipe left. Do you want to see your profile? Click the pencil.
It took several minutes to locate the option to edit my own profile, and I found it by accident. I like to see what my profile looks like to others, but that option doesn’t seem to exist.
These are relatively small fixe that can make a user’s experience better.

Kinda funny kinda weird
They use AI to track whether or not you’re female and can make an account, I wanted to test the strength of this. I’m a trans man and it wouldn’t let me join even though I was assigned female at birth and my cis mother who was born a girl and still female couldn’t join either (and we actually look nothing alike, like she has long straight blonde hair softer face etc where as I have very short hair and facial hair etc) just very peculiar how gender affirming it’s been for trans people despite the intent being to discriminate against trans women and how weirdly dehumanizing and judgmental it is towards cis women. That is all.

Most negative reviews are from men lol
If you take the time to read through the reviews you’ll find it’s mostly men whining because they can’t get in. Ha! The app is a little confusing but it’s so wonderful to have a space like this just for women!
Amazing!
This space is exclusively available to women and girls. There is a range of ages on the app which is always growing. There is so much to do and so many different ways to connect on this app. The developers are always issuing updates to improve the experience. And you don’t have to worry that your speaking to anyone who isn't female because of the apps facial analysis!

It’s not racist.
I am a woman of color and the app let me in right away. I had just woken up and hadn’t put a single bit of make up on, nor did I do my hair when I signed up. IRL I have been mistaken as mtf because I’m not “conventionally attractive” and have large rough hands. The AI is better at discerning gender than most people.

women are allowed to set boundaries
It’s wonderful that in the male-dominated space that is still the internet at large, there’s an app that allows for female-only space. As you can tell by the negative reviews, males get VERY upset when women set boundaries like this one—their hysterical outcry in response to the slightest exclusion is a great example of why women NEED spaces of our own. Bravo Giggle.

5 star for balance. detailed review!
heard about this app via twitter and decided to download. to address the eurocentric concerns: i’m a brown woman w/ dark hair, was wearing no makeup and have facial hair when i took my selfie. was verified almost immediately!
the app basically functions like tinder w/ the swipe mechanic? i thought it was going to be more like a forum system which i prefer. i deleted because i don’t have the time to swipe on people and chat up.
i would prefer if the language used on the app was women rather than girls which feels infantilizing especially since you have to be at least 16 (?) to use the app.
overall i could see this being useful for any GC or radfem women who want to date or
make friends!

Great Safe Space for Women!
It seems like the negative comments are lies and from men trying to get into this app and not being able to. On a side note, Love that I’m able to connect with other women also struggling with perimenopause. By the way I’m a brown woman who has zero issues getting into this app.
Definitely an app to AVOID!! Transphobic, for really old people app - waste of time
I have seen a lot of good apps and bad apps in my time, but this one really takes the cake. The creator of this app is very transphobic and excludes the transgender community. There isn’t really anything fun to do on this app anyway, and it seems to mostly just be for really really old people and religious nuts. This app definitely it’s not worth wasting any of your life trying to use.....pretty boring and doesn’t appeal to millennials or Gen Zers @ all

Amazing!
I wish i didn’t need to pay for features, that’s the one thing I don’t like. Idk how people are getting turned down? I’m a regular girl with a kinda masculine face and didn’t have a problem
Sorry, men 🤷🏻♀️
I love this app for the very reason that it allows real women to connect. Feminism has lost its way and is allowing men to infiltrate our ideology in so many different ways. I’m SO glad someone finally had the sense to create an online space specifically for women with the intent to exclude men. WOMEN DESERVE THEIR OWN SPACES.

A sad day
How do we live in a world where men get on this site & trash it? The creator wanted a space for woman - who have had to fight hard for our voice - and now men want to invade this too. Make an app for the trans community & don’t hate those who are not inclusive. Why do we act like we are ALL inclusive? I’ve seen Christian’s, Muslims & others not included. Inclusivity in every place & every world is not a reality. For this start up app, shame on you who are offended. Let women be already.

Loading Issues
I wish people didn’t crowd the comments with transphobia claims cause this app could use some helpful critiques instead of focusing on men like every other app already does. I like the concept a lot, since there really isn’t much in terms of women-only spaces (thanks to aforementioned people). But I’m having issues loading any Giggles. I also thought this app would be forum-based and not a Tinder lite.
Update: I cannot even log back in because the app says it is in a format it cannot read. Thanks for collecting my data without me being able to adjust or delete it.
