5 STARS FOR VISIBILITY ONLY
TLDR: App is NSFW heavy, NOT safe for kids, filled with scammers, and now fully lacks security and moderation features.
Any reviews you see that don’t mention any of the things in my review are most likely paid, since we know plink is not above faking engagement.
Also, plink might reply to this review with a generic copy pasted response about always working to improve things. This is completely false. I’ve had this app for 4 years, they have only DECREASED app quality and security by literally removing authentication procedures and removing most of the automod behaviors.
Rest of the review:
This has never been a legitimate gaming app. Moderation was always subpar, support was nonexistent, the app was laggy and slow.
Since they updated it, it’s way worse now. It’s 80% bots and bot promoters, moderation basically doesn’t exist, real people have been pushed out of the feed by fake accounts, the app is still buggy, and they’ve actually REMOVED some major security features and severely cut back on their automatic moderation system.
Since the update, bots use OF and insta models for their photos and spam fake posts with Zangi and WhatsApp numbers. The photos they share are sometimes pornographic, and despite being reported constantly, they aren’t removed. I’ve never seen more porn in the chats in all my years on Plink than I have since the update. Nor have I ever seen so many people go to the chats to let everyone know someone is a bot because they’ve been scammed by them. Some of these bots have been in the weekly top posters for weeks, and promoter accounts are set up with an automated share system that just spams reshares of the bot posts.
Porn and other banned imagery used to be automatically detected by the automod and removed and a ban placed on the account, and now all it does is add a warning overlay that can be removed by tapping on it, and no ban is given.
This app has minors on it, LOTS of them. It says it’s 12+, and there are regularly kids in these group chats surrounded by often very adult conversations, porn, scammers, predators, etc.
Plink users themselves have had to come together to find ways to get predators and scammers off the platform, putting in the work that plink staff should be doing.
In recent weeks I have even seen spammed message ads from bot accounts with contact links that explicitly mention things like child pornography being available to anyone interested.
Most new users don’t last long because the app is such a toxic and unsafe place, and most longtime users have left or moved to other platforms.
This app could have been genuinely good, but it’s not. I have hundreds and hundreds of screenshots from the years I’ve had plink that clearly show all of the things I’ve mentioned, as well as emails to and from support confirming some of it indirectly.

Bruh
Every time someone someone adds you they give you either add my telegram add my signal or they just send their discord and then when you add their discord, they start out polite and then they go. Oh I’m looking for sugar baby. Would you do so-and-so for money for me or for me to give you money you’d have to send $25 or $30 like I joined this app to make friends and play games with not find a sugar mom.
