### 3/5 — Good idea, execution could be better

*2026-04-26*

The app freezes frequently during games so I have to restart the app then rejoin. I love the look of everything and the explanations. I wish there were other poker games than just Texas Hold’em like Black Jack maybe.

### 2/5 — Nice UI but All Bots

*2026-03-26*

The user interface is pretty nice, WAY better than WSOP. It’s a decent app if you’re a very beginner or SUPER casual poker player but beware it seems like it’s 98% bots/computer “players.” There are maybe 10-15 usernames you will see all the time. The strategy and playing style they use is pretty similar and predictable after a while. You will get statistically improbable hands A LOT and you’ll win more than you would in a real game. So are you really learning?

### 2/5 — Could be much better!

*2026-03-09*

Just started to use this I've tried to play three tournaments. The first two were a little slow and glitchy but not terrible and I did like the insights! However! At the end of my third tournament when I have more than 30,000 chips and I'm heads up with the last person who has like 4000 chips that game completely blanked out! And I mean it froze and then the whole app blanked out. It's a white screen now that is a serious problem with the app! This is the second time I'm trying to put in the review because it doesn't even have a button to submit the review.

### 3/5 — Poker power

*2026-02-08*

The app glitches frequently while in the middle of a hand. It could be a great app if it was consistent. I had to delete and re-open it multiple times causing my game to end.

### 2/5 — Beautiful design. Super glitchy.

*2026-01-05, version 0.9.13*

I love what the app stands for. Would love to keep using it if it wasn’t so glitchy. Also, seems like there’s a lot of bots. There’s no way I login & play the same people usernames days in a row at different times of the day.

### 3/5 — Addictive

*2025-11-23, version 0.9.13*

I played until the app glitched so much that I thought my phone broke. I restarted it and it works now, but it was a whirlwind experience. I forgot to drink water and everything.

### 2/5 — So glitchy, it ruins experience

*2025-11-10, version 0.9.12*

It has glitched out so many times, including while I’m on a winning streak, forcing me to forfeit since the app freezes up and won’t load again. Fix it please!

### 3/5 — Please fix

*2025-11-05, version 0.9.12*

Great concept. Glitching still and needs to be solved. I hope it gets fixed soon

### 2/5 — Glitchy app

*2025-10-27, version 0.9.12*

Fun game, randomly freezes mid game and have to constantly restart it

### 2/5 — Freeze

*2025-08-28, version 0.9.9*

App keeps freezing up. Players bluff more than usual

### 2/5 — Going downhill

*2025-08-25*

This app was awesome at first, but people don’t really play anymore. You used to be able to join or start a game quick, now you have to wait a very long time for anyone to join, if they ever do. Not really any incentives to keep playing, but it was great to learn on.

**Developer response:** Hello,

We apologize for the inconvenience but we have resolved your issue.  Please uninstall your app, download the latest from AppStore, and login back in with your same email.  Also, feel free to reach out via support@powerpower.com.

Thank you

### 3/5 — Would be great

*2025-08-22, version 0.9.9*

My app continues to freeze it’s very frustrating especially in the middle of live play.

### 3/5 — Beautiful Interface but Glitchy

*2025-08-08*

I really enjoy the layout of this app but it’s extremely glitchy and doesn’t work at times. I thought it was an issue with my phone but I ended up downloading on my iPad as well and received the same experience. It makes learning poker a lot more unpleasant and will be supplementing my studies with more efficient apps.

### 1/5 — Too many app issues: would give zero stars if I could

*2026-05-04*

This app is terrible. I joined when it first started & it was fine then, but every update gets worse. To illustrate, I’ve been playing a game for 40 minutes & the app decided to just not work anymore. It froze, & I’ve done dozens of hard closes & resets, deleted the app & redownloaded, & every time I open it I just get a white screen. I was in the lead until all this happened. This has happened several times. It’s very hard to take this seriously as a skill learning tool when it’s so unreliable.

Updated May 2026: the developer responded & said they’ve fixed the issue but they did not. And the new update is even worse. It’s less intuitive than every other version, constantly freezes or doesn’t register your moves, even though the selection you made responds on the click. I just won over 31k in one hand & the app froze & kicked me out of the game. I am so done. This was good at first but it’s not worth the time, use a real app if you want to play poker.

**Developer response:** Hello,

### 1/5 — Will completely shut down

*2025-08-25*

This app is nice to look at but that’s about it. Anytime I try and use this app, after a certain amount of time it completely glitches and causes my phone and even apps in the background to crash. I’ve deleted and redownloaded the app, restarted my phone and it makes no difference. There’s something wrong with the app on their end.

### 1/5 — Unrealistic

*2025-07-13, version 0.9.9*

The UX/UI is the only thing good about this app. The entire game is unrealistic.  In a real game you can read the table early/ after you fold.


When you arent allowed to read the table you can even get better at judging your decisions. 

There’s no “learning” element. 


Fix this game if you actually want to teach women to play.

### 1/5 — Buttons not working

*2025-06-03, version 0.9.8*

Raise buttons not working.. please fix asap. On newest version of app

### 1/5 — Part of The Idea

*2025-05-14*

I like part of the idea, learning poker and learning how it can correlate to business and life skills.

The fact that it is targeted towards women is absolutely annoying and off-putting. Poker is a game anyone can play, just because more men do play doesn’t mean women cannot. You’re literally doing the opposite, it’s discrimination by exclusion.

Take the concept of learning poker while gaining real life skills and make it inclusive to everyone.

### 1/5 — Was at 4 stars before update

*2025-02-19*

The newest update deleted my original account. I used the same email as before to create a new account with a different user name because the system said my original name was taken, yet it let me use the email on that account to make this new account.

Anyways, now it’s glitching to the point where I haven’t been able to join a game in this new account.

**Developer response:** Hello,

### 1/5 — Don’t download

*2025-02-10, version 0.8.8*

Can’t even sign up/login through the first page

### 1/5 — New update is awful

*2024-10-25*

It just updated & now nothing is working right, it will randomly say “game over” even when there are plenty of chips & players left, & it doesn’t always show you your cards. I think I’m moving on to another app.

### 1/5 — App crashes

*2024-09-13*

Often times I cannot play and it just sits there like it’s doing something 
Inside of problem 

I like poker and playing the game not real people not bots 

But also today I had Q hearts flush and should have won the game as the person who did win had only an 8 hearts and therefore 
Something seems to be going wrong 
Dore to after it showed her as the winner 
The app crashed as described again for like the 5th time and 
Seems there’s more to playing on this app than I can put up with. 
Thank you for trying but prefer an app that does not crash and places the correct winning hand 
Enjoyed what time I played on your site as CHIPS.

**Developer response:** We genuinely understand your disappointment, and we're truly sorry our app didn't live up to your expectations.
Since your review last July, we've enhanced our core game engine and released multiple updates that have significantly improved stability and eliminated the glitches you experienced. We're committed to creating a smooth, frustration-free experience for all our users.

### 5/5 — Going all in on ME!

*2025-11-20*

This game has opened up my eyes to being committed, patient, strategic, competitive, and most importantly, playful. Enjoying building the skill of betting when I’m scared, being patient when it’s called for, and going all in when the hand is right. Truly been a “game” changer. 😊♠️♥️♣️♦️

### 5/5 — Thank you

*2025-11-03, version 0.9.12*

This has been refreshing and fun

### 5/5 — Fun and easy to use

*2025-09-25*

I like this app a lot. I only wish you’d bring more real users in but other than that I find it fun

### 5/5 — Love the App - Have a Suggestion

*2025-04-23*

I have a lot of fun playing on this app and have recommended it to friends.  I’d like to suggest that when a player has zero chips and is out that they are auto removed from the game table. Not everyone leaves the game and it leaves no room for new players to join.  Thanks!

### 5/5 — So good!

*2025-02-12, version 0.8.9*

Excellent app for people who want to learn how to play poker or improve their poker playing skills.  So easy to use and contains valuable learning tools.

### 5/5 — Amazing app!

*2025-02-12, version 0.8.9*

A game-changer for women who want to learn poker!

### 5/5 — Poker Power the best app for women to learn, play, and win at poker!

*2025-02-12*

Poker Power is an incredible app and company that is truly changing the game for women. Jenny Just is absolutely right that women have historically been left out of places where major decisions are made, like the boardroom, the golf course, and the poker table. In her TED Talk, she outlines this issue and her mission to teach one million women how to play poker. With this app and Poker Power's live events, that vision is becoming a reality.
I wish this app existed 20 years ago when I was searching for books on how to play Texas Hold’em while quietly learning as a new mother and business owner. Now, with Poker Power, I’ve not only been able to play with my girlfriends who had never played before, but we can meet virtually on the app, play against each other, and catch up on life while having a blast! I’m not a big gamer, so this has become the perfect “game”  for us.
For those who already play poker, this app is a great tool to keep your skills sharp. I like to play poker tournaments, and Poker Power helps me stay fresh and practice my strategy. What’s even more impressive is that my friends learned for free using the app, and we’ve been playing for years without spending a dime. The app’s virtual classes, which I did pay for, were worth every penny. The instructors are real poker pros and successful businesswomen who love the game and want to help others succeed.
Poker Power even hosted a live event during LA Tech Week in Los Angeles, which was so much fun! Some of us were experienced players, while others were just learning, but the event brought us all together. Huge thanks to Jenny Just, her daughter, and the entire team behind Poker Power for creating this platform.
I’m excited to see the premium features rolling out soon! If you're a woman who’s curious about poker, or if you already play and want to improve, I highly recommend downloading the app. Whether you want to learn, practice, or just have fun, Poker Power is the perfect place to start.

### 5/5 — Tracks my focus

*2025-02-11*

Not only is the app fun to play on, it tracks how many hands I play/fold. I’ve trained myself to decrease unnecessary real life risks by only playing hands that set me up for success.

### 5/5 — This app is awesome

*2025-01-23*

This app has helped me so much & has improved my confidence. The app is a safe place to learn Texas hold em poker & allows women to gain confidence in learning to bluff, taking calculated risks & practicing strategy. It’s also introduced me to a whole community of women who are driven like myself. The app not only walks you through poker in an easy to understand way but now also offers a subscription option where you can do some awesome learning videos from professional women poker players. As it turns out, poker is not difficult to learn & im so glad I came here to find that out. Download the app & give it a go :) start with the first game walkthrough. Enjoy!

### 5/5 — Genuinely excellent

*2025-01-16, version 0.8.7*

Definitely a win to learn and compete in different levels of the game.  

Thousand percent recommend
