## What is Ramblio?

Ramblio is a social space built entirely around audio.
Share moments, stories, or creations through short voice posts called Rambles, or go live with others in Hangouts. Whether it’s something you’ve made, captured, or just felt like saying, everything on Ramblio starts with sound.

Features
Post Rambles; share your thoughts, sounds, or creations in audio form
Hangouts; go live, host conversations, or drop in to listen
Feeds; explore new rambles, follow creators, or browse Zones for your interests
Comments; reply with text or voice to keep conversations going
Reactions; quick ways to respond and show how you feel
Chats; send private voice or text messages

Why Ramblio?
Because sound carries expression that visuals can’t; from voices and music to ambient recordings and game play. Ramblio makes it easy to share what you hear, make, or imagine.

## Key features

- Post audio Rambles
- Host live Hangouts
- Explore interest-based Zones
- Reply with voice or text comments
- Send private voice/text chats
- React to content

### 2/5 — I'm unable to sign in

*2026-06-29*

I am unable to sign into the app. No matter how many links I request or how many times I tap the retry button, I keep getting a fail message.

### 1/5 — A waste of time.

*2026-06-24*

this app does not support free speech. The moderators are biased. sure, you can find a few like-minded people on here, but following people really doesn't have an effect. The number of followers doesn't match up with the number of comments and reactions that people generally get. Also, drama is rewarded. Common sense is found upon. If people insult you, they won't do anything about it. Being hateful towards others is rewarded by the moderators. I wouldn't recommend this app to anyone.

### 1/5 — App does not work correctly

*2026-06-13*

Hello, I have been suggested this app from a friend of mine. I tried to sign in or create a new account, but there is apparently no create account button so I tried to sign and then it wasn’t letting me create or sign in the it wasn’t letting me create or sign up for a new account. I do not understand this. This is not really that good. It never worked for me so it’s not that good and the fact that I tried to create a new account was very hard and not possible at all means that it’s not a good experience.

### 1/5 — app is broken.

*2026-06-10*

I used to absolutely love this app.

As someone who is blind, I’m not much of a texter. I’m a talker. I like phone calls, conversations, and hearing people’s voices. The entire concept of a social media app built around audio posts was right up my alley. I loved being able to share my thoughts, hear what people around the world had to say, and connect with people in a way that felt more natural than typing walls of text.

Then the update happened.

Now I can’t even log in.

The login system was already questionable to begin with. Instead of using a normal email and password like basically every other app on Earth, you enter your email address and get sent a magic login link. Click the link, get into your account. Simple in theory.

Except now the link doesn’t work.

Every single time I click it, I get a server error.

My account clearly still exists. I’m still receiving notifications about comments, messages, and new rambles from other users. My old recordings are apparently still sitting out there somewhere in cyberspace. The app knows I exist. The notifications know I exist. Everyone else knows I exist.

The login page, however, has apparently decided I no longer exist.

The most frustrating part is that there appears to be little to no customer support. I can’t get ahold of anyone to fix the problem. I’m just locked out of my account while notifications continue to taunt me like, “Hey, look at all the stuff happening that you can’t access!”

At this point, the login system feels like a failed experiment. I understand the goal was convenience. Passwords can be annoying. Nobody likes forgetting them.

But a password system that works is infinitely better than a passwordless system that doesn’t.

When your entire account depends on a magic link functioning correctly, and that link stops working, you’re done. Locked out. Game over.

Honestly, they should have just done what everyone else does: email, password, login, done. Boring? Maybe. Reliable? Absolutely.

I loved this app. I recommended it to people. Now I can’t even recommend downloading it because there’s a decent chance you’ll eventually end up staring at a server error while your account sits on the other side of a locked door.

Fix the login system.

### 3/5 — Can't Log In

*2026-05-29*

Hi. So after the last update I haven't been able to log into my account. I'm not sure if it got deleted or if it stopped supporting iCloud emails. Also, wasn't sure how to make an inquiry about this so I had to come here. Could you please explain what happened?

### 4/5 — Great service but needs improvement

*2026-05-26*

Hello, I’d like to give a sincere speech about this app. I have noticed a few issues. I am not receiving notifications, even though notifications are allowed in the app, and also I am not able to change my profile settings or anything in that matter. It says error updating profile, so I don’t know what I can do for now but if you have any suggestions of what I can do, please let me know. Also, let me know if the username will be fixed in the next update? Thank you.

### 5/5 — Great app But some suggestions

*2026-05-25*

I’ve noticed when it comes to recording audio files in the comments sometimes they don’t upload properly could you fix this issue

### 1/5 — cant sign in

*2026-05-22*

i have tried to sign in, with email address, and i am unable to sign in since the last app update. i miss this app so very much. I hate i cant get signed anymore. please fix this.

### 5/5 — Like clubhouse, but even more audio focused

*2026-04-13*

As a blind person, I thoroughly enjoy this app. Like clubhouse, one can start a group hangout and chat with others who have also signed up for the app. But there’s also an audio feed where you can post messages up up to 10 minutes. There is no expectation towards brevity or even Smooth editing. Just raw audio. It’s so authentic and human and ever since clubhouse started changing I have missed that so much and I’m so glad to have it back.

### 5/5 — Love this app. It is awesome.

*2026-03-09*

Hi Josh. Wanted to let you know that I love this app. It is awesome, and I'm getting a lot of use out of it. I like the fact that I can record moments from my life, meet other people, and just really chat about anything. I'm glad we can do both voice and text. I've posted a lot of demonstrations that I have of my figures and other things around my room here, but there is one feature I would like to see added. To delete a thread from which you are barred from taking pardon because someone has blocked you. Someone blocked me on Ramblio, and I don't know why. Please add a feature where you can delete a thread from which you are barred because you are blocked. So that way, the thread from which you are barred when you are blocked by someone does not keep showing up in your notifications. Please add a feature to completely delete this thread so you don't have to see it any longer. Thank you. Just a suggestion.
