The company lies and says the streamer receives FULL GIFTS. It is a lie. Also, if you are a streamer who supports another streamer, that $10 gift will give them $2 value. This app is VERY hard to succeed. You HAVE o be on EVERY DAY around 9pm PST before “the meter reset”. This means it doesn’t matter how long you’ve been on and how many gifts you’ve received that day… If you are not in EVERY EVENING around 9pm PST you are almost guaranteed to lose your position, resulting in a “rank down” which is a level down, which is a pay degrade, and also very disappointing for everyone who gifted that day. If you want to be in a new Japanese scam download Pococha today! The company lie through their teeth ### 4/5 — I like *2023-04-26* I like Pococha but I have an iPhone and I didn’t get my update yet, so there is a green box whenever I go to somebody’s broadcast it’s only on my end so Pococha can you please fix it for me ASAP ### 1/5 — Bad horrible despise *2023-02-08, version 5.25.2* So I made a live cause I was bored and I’m 18 and the app banned me for 3 days cause I look young like Wth don’t get it if you have a baby face:) I encourage you not to get it ### 1/5 — Why I don’t really like this app *2023-02-04, version 5.25.1* It’s never letting me go live bcs my age whats wrong with children going live on this app it makes no sense I tried again poof. Deleted it I don’t like this app it’s very very very very very much like rigged ### 2/5 — Needs work *2023-01-01, version 5.24.3* My first time being on the site I was on it n then wen to sleep online after being on for a long time my account got suspended yall need too update the rules for better useage so people can enjoy a better experience.!!!! ### 2/5 — Little instruction *2022-09-11, version 5.19.1* My roommate and I enjoy the fact that anyone can create a live broadcast but we still don’t know what the different icons mean on our broadcasts and how to use our coins. I spent a lot of time trying to find these answers out and I am still very confused. It is not a very user friendly app. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2022-07-03, version 5.16.0* Unless you like being treated like working for a sweat shop. The new changes are horrible and the pay is like less then $1 an hour ### 1/5 — Too many bugs *2022-06-23, version 5.16.0* I only have 1 account but randomly started getting error messages that said I had multiple on my device. So I can’t watch the streamers I wanted to watch. It worked for other streamers but not the ones I was following. When I went to customer support, they said they couldn’t help me and hoped I understood. Super annoying and unhelpful. ### 3/5 — Ehhhh *2022-06-20, version 5.15.2* Not very consistent in what they pay there hosts and not many genuine supporters to help those hosts succeed on the application. Wish they had more things for the users to do on the application but over a fair application compared to some of it counterparts ### 1/5 — Exhausting for new streamers *2022-04-23, version 5.14.0* Rank meter changed pay which makes it harder for newer streamers to make money, also now when you use freeze passes you don’t get paid for that day, pococha give us a break no body wants to stream EVERY single day of the month. Jesus ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — ポコチャ月額制にした方がいい *2023-10-19* Pococha(ポコチャ)を1年ぶりにダウンロードしました。 『Pococha(ポコチャ)は無料で楽しめる配信アプリでライバー(配信者)とリスナー(視聴者)が"気軽"に楽しめる』 自分のタイミングでアイテム投げたり 話しながら楽しめるものと思ったのですが全然違います。 初見で入っても 『コアファン』になってくれとすぐ言われてます。 "1080"コインを使用するとファンになれるのですが、 コアにならないと暴言吐かれたり、無視されます。 常にコアの人数合戦の様な感じです。 Sランクに限った事ではないのすが…… 実際に言われたことです。 『配信を見るのタダじゃない』 『金ないやつとは話さない』 『仕事でやってるから』 『画像配信サービスだってお金払って見るでしょ？ 私達もそれと同じ！！1080コインは視聴料金』 1080コインは現金で1600円くらいです。 視聴しているライバーに対して払えと言っています。 Pococha(ポコチャ)がうたってる "無料で気軽に楽しめる"とは違う気がします。 配信者側からお金の催促をしてきます。 お金欲しければ視聴者を楽しませて アイテムをもらうのが妥当だと感じています。 中には自分の写真を2万ポイントで特典プレゼント 聞こえは良いですが、販売している様なものです。 無料配送アプリというなら 配信者側から"お金(ポイント)の催促"は 禁止した方がいいと思います。 ライバー(配信者)の発言が自由すぎる お金を投げるかは見てる側が決める！！！ また、月額幾らと決めて視聴料金をとる ポイントが毎月もらえるプランなど作るべきです。 お互いが嫌な気持ちにならない仕組み作りをした方が楽しめると感じました。 ライバー(配信者)の金銭感覚がおかしい 自分のペースで楽しみたい人には向かないアプリです。 ### 1/5 — Bots, Dating, and Scam *2023-07-24* The comments are filled with bots that will say random emojis and when you try to follow them, it won’t let you. They will never say anything else other than emojis. The chat room thumbnail are mostly girls that have this pose like they are trying to seduce you. It is gross and makes the point of this app become a dating app. Also, I did an offer where if you logged in for 8 days straight, they will pay you $8. After I did the offer, I did not receive my money, so I emailed them and they accused me of using a VPN when I don’t even have one on my phone. Overall, this app will avoid paying you by making up ridiculous excuses that you won’t be able to prove. ### 1/5 — コミニケーションアプリじゃないのかよ😡 *2023-07-18* なんで話するのに金使わないあかんねん💢 ライバーが投げ銭アプリ言ってる時点で終わってるわ笑笑 ### 1/5 — 搾取得意なら、配信オススメ *2023-07-03, version 5.34.0* いかに課金して、馬車or宇宙（いずれも5555コイン相当）を投げまくってもらうかが勝負の、搾取得意な配信者向けアプリです。 投げまくってもらうのも才能＝ホステスさんやホストさんが多いのも特徴。 搾取得意なら、配信者になられる事をオススメいたします。 気の弱い方は、リスナーにならないほうがベター。 伏せ字（運営が不適切と判断したコメントは伏せりまくる。シリには厳しく、草むしりや沢尻エリカでも伏せる）をコメントしたら花火（1080コイン相当）を投げろという酷いマイルールの枠も多数。 おちおちコメントもできないのに、なにがコミュニケーションアプリでしょうか。 ### 1/5 — 運営見て見ぬふりの詐欺師集団 *2023-06-19* アイテム投げたら特典あげますよー って言って釣って、後は放置＆ブロック それ繰り返してればすぐS帯行くんじゃないっすかね 運営は見て見ぬふりだし 金だけ取られて、くだらねっ 性格ねじ曲がった集団です。 ### 1/5 — 出ていけよ！ *2023-06-18, version 5.33.1* 暇つぶしで来ました〜って言ったら、出て行けよ、こっちは仕事なんだよ💢って言われた。めちゃくちゃ怖かったです。スクショしてすぐ出てきました。トラウマだ〜 ### 1/5 — 課金を煽ってうざいライバーばっかりでうんざりする *2023-06-07, version 5.32.0* 課金煽りばかりでほんとゲンナリするよ、このアプリは。アンインストールするべし ### 1/5 — ライバーの質が悪い *2023-04-22* 他の方のレビューを見てもわかると思いますが無課金で楽しめると書いてありますが アイテム要求される アイテムを投げないといけないシステム コインが集めにくい 無料では絶対に楽しめません ポコチャで稼ぐという勘違いライバーが多いです。 配信を見に行ってもアイテムの要求や強要ばかり 断ると出でけなどと怒鳴られます そんなライバーばかりなのに報告しても全く減る感じがありません 『ポコチャはリスナーに負担がかかるので他の配信アプリにします』という配信者さんも多い中 ポコチャを選んでいる時点で楽しくや気軽にと言われても信用できません また、ポコチャにはランクというものがあり ランクはE～Ｓまでありライバーの殆どがＳを目指して配信をしています ですがそのランクを上げるには1日何万何十万のコインを使わなければいけません ですが一日に集められるコインは上限が300 しかも推し以外の配信を14分間何度も見に行かないといけません しかも殆どの配信者がアイテムを要求したりコインだけ貰っていくとブロックしたりします こんなシステムでどうやって無料で楽しめると書いてあるのか謎です ### 1/5 — Do not work with them *2023-04-13* It’s not the recruiters fault, but if you don’t stream every day (regardless of your life), you will not get paid. If you don’t stream 70 minutes each time, you won’t get paid. If you accrue any diamonds, they’re worth 0.01, so say you have 200 you made $2. People are creepy and weird and they do nothing about it. Don’t sign as a broadcaster. ### 1/5 — READ. *2023-02-23* So when I first got this app I was making a live about all about my lil brother than I forgot to set a headline then I joined back and it said live stopped due to his age like I may look young but I’m 18 I put the wrong year it kicked me off so please change this or else I’ll get all my friends off this game and gonna be - 29 People off your game so don’t wanna be rude or be a Karen or a jerk but change now. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Pococha Streamer *2023-02-02, version 5.25.1* I love this app so much.

So Core Up Pocos🙌🏾💯 ### 5/5 — Global Love *2023-01-29, version 5.25.0* Came across this at and found it to be very resourceful. I’ve met some great people internationally and some that live in my hometown. It’s definitely a great platform to craft your skills in whatever it is. Good Luck and enjoy the app. ### 5/5 — I Love It *2023-01-09, version 5.24.3* It’s different you go live no quota This app is fun and engaging ### 5/5 — LOVE this app! *2022-11-21, version 5.22.1* I’ve been using this app for the past month and I love how simple it is to use. ### 5/5 — Pretty Cool *2022-11-19, version 5.22.1* I’ve been on here for a couple of weeks, but like it so far, could bring in a few more things, but u know no app will satisfy 100% but I can say that I’m COOL WITH IT SO FAR ### 5/5 — What is your favorite color this the word of the day *2022-11-12, version 5.21.0* Pocket chat is a great app to be on ### 5/5 — Love *2022-08-17, version 5.17.1* I love this app. It’s actually the best social media app that I have been on when it comes to engagement.

It’s an up and coming app so get on the train before it takes off! ### 5/5 — Great app but needs some upgrades *2022-05-06, version 5.14.0* Hello I have been on this app for a week and I love it. The people are nice and there is great support. I have some suggestions: 1 let the profiles get directed back to the home page 2. Add a message feature 3. Add a way to share the lives directly to the groups 4: have a feature that you can see all the viewers Issues with the app: 1. People including myself are getting kicked out of our lives 2. Needs more bandwidth or memory 3. I have more people in the live but can only see 2 bubbles. ALL IN ALL I LOVE THE APP. I RANKING UP VERY FAST. THIS APP IS THE EASIEST TO MAKE MONEY. I LOVE HOW STRONG THE APP ISCIN PROTECTING THE PEOPLE ON IT. NOT MANY APPS ARE LIKE THAT. IF I CAN APPLY TO WORK FOR YOUR COMPANY PLEASE LET ME KNOW. I AM AN ADMIN AND HAVE BEEN DOING IT FOR OVER 20 YEARS FOR DIFFERENT PEOPLE. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
