### 1/5 — It’s not working

*2020-03-24, version 1.2.0*

I can’t even launch the app. It keeps crashing, and it’s most likely not something to do with my device.

### 3/5 — Help me on the app

*2020-01-16, version 1.2.0*

So I was downloading it then it was done so when I got on it, it just kept on kicking me out of the app if that is a bug then can you fix the app so it can stop doing that please and thank

### 2/5 — Umm, what?

*2018-09-22, version 1.2.0*

I can’t even open this app 2 stars because everyone says it’s good. BUT I CANT EVEN GET IN!

### 5/5 — Great app, not so many users

*2017-01-19, version 1.2.0*

I used minty around a year ago when there was more people but now barely anyone posts. Having people come back to the app would really help it. I love minty and hope it gets the attention it deserves.

### 4/5 — Active?

*2016-10-17, version 1.2.0*

Is this app even updating anymore? It had real potential. Shame for it to disappear..

### 5/5 — Minty Where did you go!!

*2016-08-28, version 1.2.0*

Minty NEEDS to come back! Just do some bug fixes and advertise again please I loved this app a while ago, now I'm @AbdulBaz. #BringMintyBack!!!

### 4/5 — Remember when...

*2016-08-19, version 1.2.0*

I remember when this app was popular, everyone wanted to get all the best usernames and be called the “original.” So many people from Instagram went to Minty claiming that they liked it better on Minty than Instagram, but little did they know that Instagram is always going to be a part of them. Now this app just sits here with barely anyone using it and I have to admit, at the time I was using it, it was like a better version on Instagram. But let's admit guys, no matter how awful those Instagram updates are, we are still going to use it forever and always. 😶

### 1/5 — Quits when I try to post

*2016-06-29, version 1.2.0*

This app is useless.

### 5/5 — lol

*2016-06-03, version 1.2.0*

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2016-05-23, version 1.2.0*

Amazing app! Please make an update to let people tag users in photos like on Instagram.
