Dead

Dead application. Doesn’t function at all anymore. Not sure why it is still on the store.

The new 2.0 version works so fast

The updated version is so snappy.

Planetary is a secure scuttlebutt app which makes it easy to take control of your social media. No cloud services to control you, instead you can choose the algorithims yourself.

Sounds interesting

Hear a review/discussion about this from the TWIT network of podcasts, thought I’d take a look 😁

Just… Just… Sigh…

Installed on my iPhone. Set up a user name and avatar.

Installed on my iPad and… there’s no way to log in to my account? Are the accounts device dependent?

This “app” makes no sense.

Buggy

Tried to give it a chance. Signed up and attempted to learn how to use it. It crashed and froze a few times in the span of about 3hrs. Came back to it a little later and it froze up again. Force closed the app and then when I restarted it, it tried to onboard me again. During the signup it fails (probably because I already have an account) so now I can’t use it at all.

Nice UI but not ready

For an app that markets itself as being for humans, I was very disappointed to find that there is no way to see which of my real life friends might be using it. So I'm literally just seeing a bunch of crypto posts from strangers. I have no need for more internet junk content that has no relevance to my IRL world. Deleting the app for now, but I'll reinstall it if they add a feature to search for my contacts who are using the app or a way to easily share my posts with friends outside of the app.

Can't follow anything!

Trying to follow any communities or users just fails, having the button un-check itself a second after you click it. This app is rather worthless until that is fixed!

Very polished but needs more

Planetary feels very polished and slick but it’s still missing some of the essentials: no way to post a photo or any other media, no quick way to follow somebody when you’ve read their post. Coming along nicely though. Scuttlebutt is a strange place at the moment though, needs more pubs for people to get started - it’s just too empty and too slow to propagate. Great concept though.

It keeps crashing

Please fix this because I want to use it. Also can you get on other social media and promote your app on there? You don’t have Twitter, VERO, Display, Odysee or anything like that. I honestly think people would use it more if you did that one. One more thing, we need a logout feature because there’s nothing like that on Planetary and I don’t like to stay on apps

Needs some work.

Some of the buttons don’t work and it would be nice if you can leave the default pubs.

Nothing loads

Response from developer

As a decentralized app it takes a while to load new content. We're working on speeding it up and providing better feedback to users about what's happening.

Brilliant

Planetary is 100% the future of social media. The team behind it is experienced, and I trust that they have what it takes to turn Planetary into something that becomes mainstream. Nice design, great utility, brilliant concept. Love it!

Smooth Signup Process

This app is easy to get started with and has a clean interface.

Nothing less than the future of social media.

A great user experience on top of peer to peer social networking with no central owners or control. What’s not to like? The team did an excellent job - this is the slickest decentralized social media app I’ve ever seen.
