Hello hpblair, thank you for joining Playsee! Inspired by community bulletin boards, Boards is a new way to explore local interests and connect with others in the area. We want to create a space for users to share their everyday experiences and local topics in the neighborhood. Show us the best parts of your neighborhood and invite your friends too!

Extremely Disappointing

I saw an ad for this app on TikTok and thought hey why not give us a try for some new date night ideas. App doesn’t load while I am on Wi-Fi, doesn’t load up my area instead shows me things to do 30 miles away. That’s fine, but I’d like to start in my general vicinity, less than 20 miles from my house. The AI can’t give me any suggestions even the most basic things like finding a Mediterranean restaurant near me. The main feed seems more like ads of restaurant employees posting things for their restaurants. Overall, really disappointing I expected more.

An actually useful social media app?

I really hope this one takes off! I try to spam the algorithms of TikTok so it shows me more local sites but this fills that niche exclusively.

Nothing like the ads

I thought it was gonna be an app that gave me a lot of ideas of where I could go and hang out with my friends. Instead it was just people posting low quality videos of there kids or something random like a Facebook grandma. Over all it’s just a worse and cheap knockoff of every social media app, but it has a lot of potential with the right switches.

Nothing like the ad

It was nothing like the ad. I thought it was a place for people to find cool local spots to go out as a family. It was just a bunch of posts about robberies and news about local police department funding. Just very weird end nothing like what was advertised.

Doesn’t Deliver

What you get and what their ads show and polar opposites. My was just a news feed of a drug overdose, COVID cases and more depressing news. They need to work on delivering great things to do not a rehash of news. It’s a sad Facebook.

Ok

It is ok because it does not let you post videos and the videos are not that good like TikTok.

Not as advertised

Saw on tik tok as a fun and easy way to find cool things to do while traveling. There’s not much of that. A few pixelated videos of sights and a crap load of ads. On top of that the app format is slow, glitchy, and overall bad quality. I couldn’t find anything to do around me from this app mainly bc there aren’t that many people posting places/experiences/sights but of course over time they’ll grow their number of users and hopefully make their interface better.

Not what was advertised (Facebook alternative)

It blatantly rips off the format of Instagram with the content of Facebook. I had to scroll for a while before I found a single interesting location/event, meanwhile the ad made it seem like the entire purpose was to find things to do and places to go. My first content shown was from January of 2022! Everything else was everything from local news, world news, cat videos, a sugardaddy seeking out women, skits, etc.

Don’t waste your time. Just get thrillist or literally whatever you were doing before you wanted to get Playsee

Awesome

This app is awesome if it would let me change my location and there weren’t so many bots trying to steal my personal data.

Misleading marketing

It’s marketed as “how to find hidden gems” but it’s basically Instagram Story style of people posting very random videos them driving on freeways, the current weather, hiking a very popular national park mixed in with ads about increase rent in Denver? And video games? And majority of the photos won’t load. … needs improving?

Nothing like the ads

This is marketed as an app to help you explore your local neighborhood. There is no map feature, and it’s impossible to set a custom location on your post. How can I show exactly where niche things are happening if I can only geotag a general location. How are users going to find what they want where they want if the only personalization option is hashtags, and not even a map.

This app needs to realign itself with its ads like ASAP.

Hello Luke Felix, thank you for your review. The interactive map now is now part of our Search feature, enabling you to explore and discover local experiences and content based on your selected location. If this is not the case, we would appreciate it if you could contact us at support@playsee.co with more details!

Good concept

You guys have a really good social media idea. The only flaw I found is that there’s currently to small of a community right that if you don’t live in a very populated area. There is no one else around you. Still 5stars <3

Not what advertised

I was under the impression from advertisements that this app would provide a map of interesting locations in my area. Turns out that this is just a knock off instagram with a map feature that doesn’t work, I couldn’t have deleted this app any faster. Don’t waste your time.

Cheap ripoff version of instagram
You basically see what other people post or recommend but it doesn’t necessarily tell you the places you can go

Being Used Like Nextdoor

I was excited to use this app & find cool spots in my area, as it was advertised for.
Extremely disappointed to find people are using it like Nextdoor or Facebook to post opinions, politics, police activity, random things like birds using their feeder or a car they liked that drove by?? Didn’t find any cool spots on there & couldn’t even make it my actual location, it kept jumping to stuff in CA & NV.
If it was updated to do what it actually is advertised to do & to block people posting random crap & opinions that no one cares about, then it’d be a cool app.
