### 3/5 — Please help

*2023-12-31*

I actually made my pronouns/gender he him when I’m really she her. I don’t know how to change it so I tried deleting my account and then I realized I also couldn’t delete it

### 3/5 — We miss it’s me

*2023-04-23*

It’s me was my fav app until it shut down orbit is ok but  it  has more bugs and doesn’t look right

### 3/5 — It broken again  sad face i loved this app plz fix

*2022-09-27, version 1.25.0*

This app was awsome till i too a break amd come back to try and message people to find out i keep receiving faild to send I keep retrying it but wont work

**Developer response:** Hey Zakku! This new version 1.26.0 will hopefully fix some of those pesky "fail to send" issues. Let me know your feedback at hello@orbitmeet.com

### 4/5 — Okay :)

*2022-09-12, version 1.23.0*

I get notifications that people messaged me but when i open the app nothing is there

**Developer response:** Sometime we get a bit of lag, and if you close the app and reopen it, you should be able to see the messages in your Friends list. Let me know if it happens again and send us screenshots at hello@orbitmeet.com Thanks! Chris and the Orbit Team

### 4/5 — Good but can be better

*2022-09-08, version 1.23.0*

Hello! I simply wanted to note that while everything is incredibly entertaining, our avatars might use some work. There aren't many alternatives for hair, eyes, and other features. I was simply considering about adding more items to make our avatars more like us. I'm grateful you read this.

**Developer response:** Hey, wow! Thanks so much for the feedback. More avatar customizations around facial adjustments are coming in the next month hopefully! We're also looking to get more "accessories" like different earrings, head pieces, tattoos. Would love to hear any other ideas you have at hello@orbitmeet.com

### 3/5 — Update

*2022-08-29, version 1.22.0*

Hey, this app is pretty cool, I like the search engine and how it allows you to find active users, but the thing that needs work is that the application takes a  while to upload a message. And you should also include time stamps on messages.

**Developer response:** Hey Derek! Thanks so much for your feedback! Timestamps are high up on our priority list as well as fixing the sending message lag issues. Send us your feedback at hello@orbitmeet.com

### 4/5 — L

*2022-08-26, version 1.22.0*

You don’t wanna put a title but people are like slenders and here like they’re trying to like get me they’re trying to like like be weird so it’s only going to be a four star

**Developer response:** Hey Nikki thanks for your feedback, when you report users who lie about their age, it gets flagged and our content moderation team reviews every case. This is one of our top priorities, send me an email with any bad accounts at hello@orbitmeet.com I will review it personally, thanks Chris and the Orbit Team

### 3/5 — Good

*2022-08-19, version 1.21.1*

App is good, has the ItsMe fibe, I wish you can make a male Avatar

### 4/5 — Great but some defaults

*2022-08-18, version 1.20.1*

The app is amazing, the only inconvenience is that when you try to call people or like match w them on call it doesn’t work sometimes!

**Developer response:** Hey Maria! Thanksssss!! Do you mean that the pop up appears straight away (and they leave) OR that the screen freezes? Please hit us up at hello@orbitmeet.com, we'd love to try and solve your issue

### 2/5 — Ok where do a start

*2022-06-14, version 1.15.1*

Well it is a good app to talk with people but at the same time the avatars don’t have custom colors or features and second we really need a dam dark mood.

**Developer response:** Hi Nick! Thanks so much for your feedback, will pass this onto the team. For any other feedback please email us at hello@orbitmeet.com
Best, Chris and the Orbit Team

### 3/5 — The AI software needs a little fixing and should bring some outfits

*2022-05-24, version 1.14.0*

Otherwise it’s good

### 1/5 — Need help getting in

*2022-11-25, version 1.29.0*

I can’t sign in it keeps saying I have a problem and to contact support but you guys never contacted me back I just wanna get in and use the app

### 1/5 — Can’t get in

*2022-10-18, version 1.26.1*

I’ve tried both my email and Facebook and it won’t let me in my account it says I already have it on my phone number account but everytime I press it to send me the code I never get it

### 1/5 — Not the best

*2022-09-25, version 1.24.0*

This app is not the best because I had the same person that I matched connection but literally still popping up the same person and got mad at me for answering the call

**Developer response:** Hi Sinaloaloa, so sorry about that, what you can do next time is just block the user then they won't come back up in your matches. We're making changes to our matching algorithm that will open up the pool of potential matches you get. Also once we have more users that will also help solve the problem. Thanks again for sharing your valuable feedback, let us know your other ideas/feedback at hello@orbitmeet.com Thanks, Chris and the Orbit Team

### 1/5 — Inclusivity

*2022-09-12, version 1.23.0*

There’s only around nine different skin tones to pick from and they’re all completely different ranges with the same red/orange undertone. There is a .1% chance that you find your skin tone. The same goes for the hairstyles there’s only about two “Afro” textured hairstyles. So if you have a tight girl pattern like I do, you’re not gonna find a hairstyle that represents you. You can’t even change your facial features, so if you have smaller eyes and a bigger nose or lips then you won’t be able to change it. There are better things that the devs can bring to the app that would capture the audience better. Please try to become more inclusive!!!

**Developer response:** Heya! Thanks so much for the feedback, definitely more customizations are on the way for avatars, and this is on our radar. We're just 6 months in, so we have a long way to go. If you have any more feedback just send me an email at hello@orbitmeet.com

### 1/5 — Want Itsme

*2022-09-06, version 1.23.0*

I want it’s me back I made a bestie but she did not like this app so she left:(

### 1/5 — Need work!!

*2022-08-16, version 1.20.1*

Tbh this app really doesn’t like give u want u want like for an ex if u set the age thing to 15-17 it will give people that are ages 22 , 14, and people that are even 30. They should get some reconditioning from itsme

### 1/5 — Need to put male avatar

*2022-05-23, version 1.14.0*

Any way you try to make a male avatar it only make female/ there no way to make a male one… were the fun in that

### 2/5 — it was fun at first, but..

*2023-05-13*

it was fun at first, and i meg some real friends! but after about 2 days of using this app, i realized it showed  the exact city, state, and country i lived in to everyone on the app. some random girl chatted me and let me know, then i deleted my acc. the weird part, is that i never clicked anything like “ok” if it ever said “share your location?”. it just automatically shared exactly where i live. there were a whole hunch of 30-50 yr men on that app too, even tho it’s for up to 17.

**Developer response:** Hey! We're really sorry you've left us. There is definitely a permissions pop up that you  accepted before showing which city you're in. You can also turn that off anytime and it'll only show your country. Best, the Orbit Team

### 2/5 — More male hairstyles

*2022-11-25, version 1.29.0*

There’s not a lot of male hairstyles to choose from like I have dreads and the closet thing to dreads is women’s hair and my character looks very feminine he doesn’t look like a male his lips are very glossy and his entire face structure gives off a feminine look.

### 2/5 — Needs work

*2022-11-07, version 1.27.0*

App works alright and all but filter list hardly ever works it never takes my energy or nothing i try and try for it to work but it will not and kids saying they my age when much younger is outta hand i never get matched with my age when i have age limits and over all needs work and these things need fixed ASAP

**Developer response:** Hey there! Thanks for the feedback, when you add a friend via match that's when we consume energy. We also prioritise matching by your filters, but expand the search if there's no one available that exactly matches your filters (e.g. +/- 1 year)

### 5/5 — Basically new ItsMe; THANK YOU

*2023-01-24, version 1.29.0*

I’ve been looking forever to find something even remotely similar to ItsMe after they fully switched to Codename. I finally found it!! I love this app!

### 5/5 — New account

*2022-12-25, version 1.29.0*

### 5/5 — Kiwi

*2022-11-15, version 1.28.0*

I’ve been playing this for awhile but I wanna know if we can cuss at all?

### 5/5 — Great app but I am concerned

*2022-09-06, version 1.23.0*

I love the app and people but sometimes people are asking for pictures that’s not good to send as 13 year old and some people are trolling to get dirty things on this app but besides all that it’s great I am older than 13 but there are kids on this app that are getting asked these things and I know you can’t do much about it but I do want a give a fair warning for others 😬

**Developer response:** Hi there, we're so sorry you experienced this. We're definitely really focused on how to reduce trolling, community safety is of utmost importance to us. So whenever you report a user, we review every single case, and we have a zero tolerance for any bad behaviour. Please send me an email at hello@orbitmeet.com with the usernames of anyone who's giving you trouble. Warm regards, Chris and the Orbit Team

### 5/5 — Dear orbit

*2022-09-01, version 1.22.0*

Hey im so sorry about the hateful review I wrote now I think I like it 💕

### 4/5 — Good but some tips

*2023-07-14*

App was good I was able to get friends and you should put this app on iPad/tablet

**Developer response:** Hey! Thanks for the love! Good tip will think about it for future releases!

### 4/5 — Very not polite

*2023-06-08*

So I was making friends and somebody liked my picture and ask to rub my feet or private part I feel like a lot of people are starting to do this and I don’t like it bc I can’t have a friends keep asking me if they can do that it’s very annoying and makes me uncomfortable he hasn’t seen my face yet he just thought my orbit thing was cute and it made me uncomfortable but other then that it’s perfect

**Developer response:** Hi there thanks for your positive review! Sorry to hear about your bad experience. Please make sure you report and block these users so that they get flagged in our system.

### 4/5 — Not letting me sign in

*2023-05-15*

Haven’t used in a while so I deleted it, came back to it because I was bored and it’s not letting me sign in?? Then it’s telling me I already have an account which I haven’t used since November of 2022.. It was great till it did this

**Developer response:** Hey there, please send us an email with your username via hello@orbitmeet.com! We'll sort you out.

### 4/5 — glitch??

*2023-04-02*

The app is good tho the face doesn’t move in the call when ur videochatting and it doesn’t let me click on games is there any way to fix this??

### 4/5 — Itsme

*2022-09-25, version 1.24.0*

If you want success from this app just take whatever “Itsme” and build off of it.

Just some ideas and constructive criticism : 

Needs face shape,lips,ear,clothing,facial hair  customization.
Needs more hair options like a buzzcut
Every character looks like a woman.
The avatars aren’t appealing at all.
They look creepy.
Go for more like a cartoonish style.

The color picking should have like a tuner or scaler.

Y’all got a whole fanbase looking for the next itsme.
Take advantage of it

**Developer response:** Hey DJ Qua Dinero! We really appreciate the feedback, we're launching facial customization in the next 4 weeks! Then next up will be facial hair as well! Watch this space and send me an email on hello@orbitmeet.com for any other ideas. Thanks, Chris and the Orbit Team
