There's no way that's random. Also, they updated all these other sports, including the PGA, but have not offered any contest for it. Not sure what's going on with this app. ### 4/5 — Fire *2026-04-20, version 4.7.0* 💯💪🏾 ### 2/5 — Going backwards *2026-04-12, version 4.7.0* Terrible game - devalued coins worth by 5x. When spinning to get coins, the chance of getting 10-25 coins is about 80%. Better off at a different platform. Good idea, it got worse and worse with time ### 5/5 — Bet teams *2026-04-10, version 4.7.0* I love this game!

Now look. ### 1/5 — Since updated *2026-01-23, version 4.5.3* Yeah, I don’t like this app no more since it up updated you have to like win a lot to get a lot and I think I’m gonna uninstall it. I ain’t giving them no good ratings cause I don’t like it no more they upgraded it and yeah you got a damn near, get little ### 1/5 — Getting Stupid *2025-12-11, version 4.5.0* Was good but the now the newest reward system is really awful and a total rip off ### 1/5 — Getting Stupid *2025-12-06, version 4.5.0* Was cool but the new reward system is a total rip off to players ### 1/5 — Legit *2025-12-04, version 4.4.6* Pays quick just bet smart gang n take they money 🤟🏾 ### 1/5 — Stupid verification rules *2025-11-14, version 4.4.6* It would be a great app if they didn’t make you send your passport/id in..not even DraftKings / prize picks require that .. no wonder there is gambling problem in this country ### 1/5 — Waiting almost 7 days for my withdrawal from hot takes is this normal? Can’t find any support info *2025-10-14* The first withdrawal went through fine but the second time I tried to withdraw my funds from hot takes it hasn’t reached my account after almost a week. Can’t find any kind of support info online for your business. Just wondering what happened to my money **Developer response:** This is not normal, could you contact us at support@hottakes.com so we can look at the specifics? Our usual processing time for this is a mater of minutes. ### 1/5 — Scammy Now *2025-08-31* Was a better app. Most of these companies usually end up getting stingy. This one, by changing their policies and intentionally making it impossible and unnecessarily confusing to cash out. ### 1/5 — Breached contact. Can't withdraw referral bonuses earned *2025-08-11* --- 8/10 Update: 3 months later and still can't withdraw a dime. - - - The app is nice, but the owner has made withdrawing nearly impossible. I'm currently owed over $128 and with the current tiered payout structure, it will take me several months if not years before I'll be able to withdraw it. I suspect the app is struggling financially as I only see this from scam apps. I reached out to the owner on multiple occasions. Nice guy, but not budging on payout. Will update if changes are made. **Developer response:** We pay out hundred of happy users every day. Please contact us at support@hottakes.com so we can look at the specifics of your case. The regulation is not the same in every US state and this is why withdrawal and referral rules may differ. ### 1/5 — Terrible app that is buggy and does not work *2025-05-12, version 4.2.7* Do not recommend! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love *2026-08-23, version 4.7.4* Love this app very easy and I’ve won a few times ### 5/5 — . *2026-08-22, version 4.7.4* Amazing ### 5/5 — Wow *2026-08-20, version 4.7.4* Wow ### 5/5 — Didduno01 *2026-07-14, version 4.7.3* Love the app ### 5/5 — Nice *2026-07-11, version 4.7.3* Still learning but pretty easygoing app ### 5/5 — So far so good *2026-07-11, version 4.7.3* Easy to use and simple to make picks ### 5/5 — AMAZING *2026-07-06, version 4.7.3* SO FUN!
