Super easy to pick up and put back down based on which items pop up in your weekly update! **Developer response:** We're working on improving personalization too! ### 5/5 — Great *2023-04-16* Its easy and great so far. Some collabs are free and some are discounted so It depends on your following and engagement,my friend only gets discount so Its no use to her but for me the ones that I want and think its worth a post I got and will continue to use. Some stuff that are like 15$ are not worth it for me to make a reel ,I wish they one that are not a bigger value would be to post a story only. **Developer response:** Glad you're having a good experience! That idea about having more types of collab posts based on the product price is such a good idea we're already working on it! It'll be live in the app later this month :-) ### 5/5 — awesome tool to get free product *2023-03-31* An amazing app for influences to easily get free products to promote (if you have enough followers for product to be free). Will be using again! ### 5/5 — Help *2023-03-19* It’s not working keeps saying internal server error **Developer response:** hey! you can email us at hello@getgumdrop.app if you're having any issues - we reply super fast ### 5/5 — 🍬 Easy way to find collabs *2023-03-06* Tells you what you need and do and what you’ll get in return. ### 5/5 — Saves me so much time *2023-01-04, version 0.0.2* Actually useful app that saves the headache of having to negotiate and go back and forth with these greedy companies!! **Developer response:** Glad you are loving it! ### 5/5 — Super easy collabs *2022-12-28, version 0.0.2* Anyone who has a following knows how hard and time-consuming it can be to set up collabs. This app makes it pretty easy. Excited to see how the developers keep building this out 🙌 **Developer response:** We love saving you time finding good collabs! ### 5/5 — Awesome app to get sponsored products *2022-12-23, version 0.0.2* Pretty good app to find products for collaboration. ### 5/5 — Amazing app!!! *2022-12-21, version 0.0.1* Free products sent to my door, it’s easy to collab and the app is so easy to use. Amazing! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Wouldn’t recommend *2024-09-17* Unless you are a big creator you won’t get free collaborations on this app. They make you pay a percentage usually 20% of the product but still have to make content for it. As a content creator who has worked with over 300+ brands on Instagram I have NEVER had to pay for something and make a post. I think this is a bit ridiculous. When I spoke to someone about it they told me there was nothing they could do as “ We’re looking for creators with a consistent posting cadence, authentic audience engagement, and ideally, a history of successful brand collaborations” even tho I fall within the category. I would not recommend this app to anyone, the products are nothing worth getting unless free. ✌🏻 ### 1/5 — Beware *2023-08-05* I downloaded the app then the app kept ecitibv out after signing up then my phone restarted randomly even at full battery. Then I deleted it & changed my passwords & removed them from accepted apps through setting in my socials. Becareful because this app is sketchy. ### 1/5 — Only discounts available *2023-06-30* I had high hopes for this app, and it was very disappointing. The app says I do not qualify for gifted collabs, only product discounts. I have a high engagement rate with around 800 likes and 250 comments per post and have worked with big brands like Vaseline, Fox TV any many more for money, yet I won’t even get a gifted product here. ### 1/5 — Not for Established Creators *2023-05-10* I downloaded the app after a number of emails were sent to me. Reading the reviews, it says they have “paid” collaborations, so I decided to check it out. They do not have paid campaigns. It’s either free product with possible commission or a discount. This app is not for established, full-time content creators. Content creation takes time and creators should be paid for their work and exposure to an audience they work hard to build and maintain (not only in possible commission either). And the ones where they want to offer a discount in exchange for product? That’s insulting. (Edited to one star because that main review is fake. No one with 80k is excited to work for a product and no money unless they bought their followers). **Developer response:** Hey there - sorry to hear you've had a disappointing experience. We do actually have paid collabs, but not every creator gets access to them. Unlike other creator marketplaces where you can see all the collabs and apply to them, we only show you collabs you're pre-approved for. This saves both you and the brands time. ### 2/5 — LINK ISSUES?! *2024-10-04* Okay so I got a free collab as long as I post a video I don’t get charged. Essentially I posted a TikTok and instagram video on a product. Tagged mention and explained. Pretty upset to find out apparently my “links aren’t valid” Like what?! Ive messaged through the “report an issue” thing in the app SEVERAL TIMES With no response. I even messaged the brand. No response. Pretty upset because Im not paying $80 for a product I already promote for free. I have a foundation on TikTok and Im curious as to why my TikTok video link isn’t working. SOMEONE HELP ME. ### 2/5 — eh *2023-06-01* This app only takes TikTok and instagram into account. I have a very active blog and a high engagement rate on TikTok and the offers are incredibly high priced. This app also does not take into account experience. I’ve ran an established blog for almost a decade, collaborated with several well known brands and the discounts this app offers is similar to Honey(a money saving app), but having to submit content for usage. It’s much easier to pitch brands directly. Having to pay a brand for them to use your content is incredibly sketchy. **Developer response:** Hey there SarantaTheWitch. It's true we only support creators on TikTok and IG currently. 1 star seems like a pretty harsh review for that! You're welcome back any time though :-) ### 2/5 — Discounts and overpriced *2023-03-08* I'm an experienced content creator. In the first couple of weeks, there were gifted collabs (that's already not the best option as most other agencies have paid ones even with top-notch brands). But starting from the 3rd week there was nothing that just discounts for some unknown brands. You can find similar products cheaper without discount and obligation to post. And they have the audacity to ask you to mention it's sponsored. This app is a time and phone space waist for any creator that respects their work. **Developer response:** We had a bug last week and fixed this! Feel free to email us if you are still having an issue ### 3/5 — Just downloaded *2023-06-08* I downloaded this today and was really excited! Some initial notes: 1. I went through and selected items I was interested in collabing with but everything I was approved for this week doesn’t fit me or my brand 2. Everything had a fee this week. I’m okay paying for items if they are heavily discounted (they were up to 80% off) but I’m not interested in what I received so I will have to wait until next week 3. Some of the items (a brisket brand) are things I am against. I’m a vegan and would like to be able to “opt out” of meat and leather collabs but there’s no way to say you aren’t interested 4. You get new things every 7 days which is a long time in my opinion. It would be better if there were more options initially or more frequently as waiting a week to see if this app will work for me is frustrating. I’ll update in a few weeks when I get some more things in my drop, but as of now I am not loving this app. **Developer response:** Hi there - thanks for this feedback! By the end of the month we'll be releasing some upgraded personalization features. We love your idea about flagging collabs you're not interested in, like non-vegan options; adding that to our roadmap. Quick note - creators do need to have about 10k real followers before they start getting offered free products or paid collabs. ### 3/5 — Items are only discounted? *2023-02-05, version 0.1.1* Update: I had a collab due this Monday (Friday i got a notification it was due in 3 days). I woke up this morning and check the app and I can’t even log in. I put in my password and it keeps coming back as an error. I have no idea what’s going on… I’m confused. Every item that is this weeks drop are only discounted. Some of the items are as high $160! Typically when it’s a collaboration, the influencer doesn’t have to pay out of pocket. How is the brand sponsoring the product if I’m purchasing it? another review indicated that they received items for free to promote, I’m just not seeing it. maybe there’s only select products that come up to $0, as for right now 30% off isn’t an incentive. I could just go out and buy any product and it wouldn’t be sponsored because I had to purchase it. **Developer response:** Hey there - sorry gumdrop hasn't met your expectations. Different brands are looking for different traits in creators and get to determine their own pricing/discounts. Most brands are looking for creators with high engagement for 100% gifted collabs and happy to offer discounts if not. ### 4/5 — Finally an app that puts creators first *2023-05-04* This is the creator app I was looking for all along. No more dealing with agencies and negotiating with brands, I get drops every week and I can choose what I am interested in and I get those products next week. Wish they also supported TikTok! ☝️ **Developer response:** TikTok! Good idea ;-) ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — This is great ! *2024-08-13* Great Collabs easy to do thank you so much for giving me this wonderful opportunity, but I do want to shout out to the customer service as I had a great move when receiving my clubs and I wasn’t able to finish so I reached out to the customer service and they gave me great responses that helped me tremendously. This is a great app and it’s got great possibilities ! I look forward to working with you again☺️ ### 5/5 — Awesome App for Content Creator *2023-11-02* Love using GumDrop to stay in the know with some of the best new AND tried and true companies. Great selection for content creators of all genres and audience. ### 5/5 — Exceptional Creator App! *2023-05-25* As a creator, I am always looking for great new apps to connect with brands and build relationships. I’m so glad that I found Gumdrop! The app is intuitive and offers tons of great brands and products. I not only get great products to promote, but I also have the opportunity to earn commission on my ads. I don’t even have to track my commissions. Gumdrop does all the work for me. I love when I get those unexpected emails from them letting me know that they’re sending me $$$! If you’re serious about content creation, you’ll definitely want to add Gumdrop to your repertoire. **Developer response:** We love giving creators money when they do great work for brands! Happy you're having a good experience. ### 5/5 — Huge time saver *2023-05-07* I loved using this app to connect with brands. Going through DMs on Instagram is super overwhelming, and so many times I’m afraid I’m getting scammed. With the weekly drops on the app I feel like I’m saving so much time because I don’t need to verify these brands. While not all the brands are ones I want to work with, it does take the stress away by having choices each week. ### 5/5 — if you’re an influencer like me you need this!! *2023-05-06* OMGGG, this app is a total game-changer! 🤯🎉 I have 80K followers and am always looking for fun products to share 📸. I've scored some of the BEST freebies 🛍️✨. Just got an adorable bikini 👙 (hellooo, summer ☀️), a limited-edition Disney collectible 🏰🐭, and a red light wand for my skin 🧖‍♀️. All I had to do was share ONE post 📱. #Winning 🥳🏆! If you love free stuff and are looking for ways to make your IG special, you NEED this app! 📲💖 ### 5/5 — Easy collabs *2023-05-04* I’ve received 10+ products through this app. Overall a good experience, and their support is very helpful. **Developer response:** Since I do all the customer support, I am glad it helps you! ### 5/5 — Less stress *2023-05-04* I was tired of writing emails, and it’s so nice that the app just tells me when I qualify. 9/10 would recommend, 10 if we had TikTok! ### 5/5 — Amazing app for creators 🎉 *2023-05-04* I love gumdrop! They make it so easy for me to collab with brands. I get weekly drops and choose products I want to create content for. 10/10 recommend! **Developer response:** Glad you're enjoying it! We have a lot of new features coming out based on creator feedback ### 5/5 — obsessed *2023-05-04* i’ve had a fantastic experience on the app. having a list of pre-approved collabs to claim every week makes the process of finding new opportunities simple. i don’t have to make awkward pitches in DMs anymore, so i’m grateful to have a tool like this to expand my creative network effortlessly. ### 5/5 — Easy & Resourceful *2023-05-04* For the first time it’s so easy for me to finally find collabs! I don’t have to go thru the hassle of DMing a bunch of brands and never hearing back. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
