### 4/5 — Pretty good

*2026-08-26, version 5.193.890*

I would say Kyodo is pretty good for what it is, of course it’s not going to be perfect but I think it has potential. I feel like the app needs to advertise itself more because some communities are just bare. Also, I wish they could implement a way for us to preview our profiles and wikis etc before posting. It helps with fixing formatting issues and visualization. Well that’s all I have for now, keep going Kyodo!

### 3/5 — Есть куда рости

*2026-08-22, version 5.193.890*

1) Баги
2) Вылеты
3) Иногда сервера накрываются и часов 6 не работают
4) Не прогружаются картинки иногдп

### 4/5 — Call,voz e vídeo.

*2026-08-16*

Coloquem a opção de call, projeção de vídeo e áudio, o app é bom, só falta isso pra ficar top.

### 2/5 — Alternative to Amino

*2026-08-15, version 5.193.890*

I love the format of this app but I’m running into the issue of not being able to post photos. I keep getting the error (-1) bad gateway. Is it possibly my internet? Is the file too big? I seriously don’t know how to fix this. I just don’t understand how everyone else is able to post high quality images but I somehow can’t even get one photo through.

### 3/5 — Resolva o problema

*2026-07-21*

meu amigo não consegue criar uma conta, ele já tentou de todos os celular possível!!!!

### 3/5 — sobre calls

*2026-07-02*

COLOQUEM OPCAO DE CHAT DE VOZ, QUEREMOS LIGAÇÕES

### 4/5 — Still needs work

*2026-06-16, version 5.190.758*

It’s not a horrible app. It’s pretty good, still has its issues, I wish it was more like amino where you can call, change ur bg and other things. But for now that app is perfectly fine.

### 2/5 — copia fiel do amino (cheio de bug

*2026-06-15*

esperando o dia que esse app vai parar de crashar e a opcao de reordenar wikis

### 1/5 — Too many requests

*2026-06-15, version 5.190.758*

I’ve tried multiple times to create a profile for this application and the result is the same. By the time it gets to the Human verification stage it always tells me “Too many Requests” even if it’s my first time trying to log in

### 1/5 — BUGADO DEMAIS

*2026-05-29*

HORRÍVEL, não entra em nada. Bug atrás de bug!!!

### 4/5 — choppy

*2026-05-28, version 5.190.758*

the app is a bit choppy when updating pfps or switching between communities and a bit laggy but besides that everything else is solid

### 1/5 — Nao gostei da interface

*2026-09-01*

:/

### 1/5 — Péssimo

*2026-09-01*

O aplicativo não é apenas ruim, mas a equipe da Kyodo se mostra pouco profissional, dado a um suporte nada eficiente. Sinceramente, a prática de assinatura para mim é bastante abusiva para usar funções que deveriam ser de toda forma gratuita, sem contar a prática de preços diferentes entre IOS e Android — também em países diferentes, cujo seu valor é maior ou menor, a depender da vontade deles. A concorrência Ducks, tem um maior potencial e existe um profissionalismo em seu suporte, quem nasceu para ser Kyodo, jamais será Ducks.

### 1/5 — Unacceptable

*2026-08-29, version 5.193.890*

Fix this. It’s my first time trying to login, how have I reached the maximum number of accounts created? That’s some bs considering I JUST downloaded the app and never tried it before.

### 1/5 — Sigh 🥀

*2026-08-17, version 5.193.890*

This app has so much problems- I find the staff veryyyy negligence to every problem that comes forward- they clearly don’t know what they’re doing- this app is a great risk for very young members especially- I say this is probably way worse than Animo-just diabolical

### 1/5 — Doesn't allow proton domain emails

*2026-08-13, version 5.193.890*

But allows google?

### 1/5 — Can’t create an account.

*2026-08-02*

“Sorry but we do not trust this email domain.” For some reason it blocks any email I try to use with this exact message.

### 1/5 — Predators

*2026-07-20, version 5.193.890*

This app is brimming with child predators that roleplay disgusting acts. The dev owners have been proven to he reading private chats but they do absolutely nothing about banning the bad individuals that make their community larger just like Amino.

### 1/5 — I am disappointed

*2026-07-20, version 5.193.890*

My account was disabled and I was doing nothing bad. All the staff member emailed me with was “Disabled due to violations” then I got another email saying “Violating our guidelines”. I don’t know what violations I’ve done. And I kept trying to get into contact with them to fix it but your staff members never respond to me. Only one email saying my account was disabled due to violations but I still don’t know what I’ve violated. And I’ve emailed and said I was sorry for whatever I’ve done wrong. I’ve been on the app for a year and never had any problems until now. And since I left, my friend said that KYODO is going downhill because of your staff is banning random good people and leaving the bad people who have bad intentions. My account was disabled Monday April 12, 2026. I’m one of the good people on the app and you’re letting your app run wild with the bad and evil people while banning the good and innocent people. And the app is dead and nobody wants to help me with my situation. I am chronically online and I have no friends but one person and she’s on KYODO. And I was wrongly banned. How do you expect to get people on your app if you ban them for no reason and won’t let them back on? Either shut down the app’s servers or let the good people back on and ban the bad people, not the other way around. And my friend says it’s barely active from how many people you ban for fun. Fix your app. I really want to come back but knowing my luck and all of you, you won’t let me back in because you guys prefer the bad people to run wild in the app

### 1/5 — Não presta

*2026-06-30*

Sai sozinho, não carrega os chats

### 1/5 — Bad

*2026-06-30, version 5.193.890*

The longer I spent on the app, the more became apparent. Some things are hard to ignore once you start paying attention. It also seems like parts of the staff team are biased and there have been enough conversations and interactions to raise concerns about how staff from other communities and circles are spoken about which is negatively by the app team. 

The reporting system is another major issue. Users are constantly encouraged to report problems yet reports can seemingly sit for months while the team insists everything is reviewed. Yet repeat offenders continue using the platform without any noticeable action being taken making the reporting system feel pointless.

Being a newer app doesn’t excuse poor moderation or inconsistent enforcement. The platform has potential, but it’s being held back by a team that appears more focused on selective enforcement than creating a fair environment. Until those issues are addressed, it’s difficult to recommend it.

### 5/5 — Can’t Create An Account

*2026-08-30, version 5.193.890*

I was informed about this app, and was even encouraged to join it for the first time. But every time I try to create an account, it says, “reached maximum of accounts,” even though I’ve never used Kyodo before. Hopefully it gets fixed so I can experience the app just as everyone else, but other than that, that’s the only issue.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-08-27, version 5.193.890*

So good

### 5/5 — Awesome (side note)

*2026-07-09, version 5.193.890*

I actually enjoy this app alot. It is only a suggestional thing, but this app should totally have availability to use on computer through using it's website so I am able to chat that way. 💔💔💔 But overall doing a great job.

### 5/5 — Больше русских!

*2026-06-29, version 5.190.758*

Буквально возвращение Amino. Нужно сделать популярным у русских.

### 5/5 — won’t let me make an account.

*2026-06-19, version 5.190.758*

hi! it keeps saying that you guys don’t trust gmail as a email domain? i used my gmail and typed it correctly, so i was a little confused. it seems like a great app though, i’d like some help. 🥹🤞🏽

### 5/5 — Kyodo is a Fantastic App

*2026-06-16, version 5.190.758*

Kyodo is a great app & it’s fresh, genuinely great design.

However there are some minor kinks and issues that need to be fixed - like Media Processing, Pinging people, and getting people into your circle through invites. 

Overall, it is a new app(from when i’m writing this) so I can see the potential it has. It’s current state is really nice though.

### 5/5 — Amazing community

*2026-06-12, version 5.190.758*

I’ve been using this app for about a month now and I can say i greatly enjoy it. Although it is still early in development it gives me major amino nostalgia, I love the push for genuine human connection against ai chats. It felt nice to be talking into chats with actual human beings and I’ve met some pretty chill and cool people already. I hope to see this app last long as I believe it has great potential to go beyond amino.

### 5/5 — Needs something way to notify members of a new Post

*2026-06-09, version 5.190.758*

Myself and others have been posting in our circles but there is no way admin can let members know HEY SOMETHING NEW WAS POSTED. We need a way to highlight activity to aid in engagement amongst members. Engagement is low With the members limit set to 15 to be searchable is difficult enough but we need a way to let members know something nee is posted in the circle. Please add this feature to an update.

### 5/5 — holy paywall

*2026-06-06, version 5.190.758*

right out of the gate you can't have majority of what amino had without forking over 5 dollars a month, no themes, no banner, can't even change your color or speech bubbles, not the best first impression so far.

### 5/5 — i like it

*2026-05-16, version 5.190.758*

pretty good
