Didn’t let me sign in

I was trying to sign up and every time it would say handshake excpetion: handshake error in iOS or something like that. I made sure my date and time was accurate. That I was connected to wifi. I deleted and re downloaded I don’t get why it isn’t working.

Won’t let me sign up

Had an account before and wanted to rejoin. Won’t let me sign up and can’t find any way to contact the developer.

So many bugs. STILL puts annoying Facebook and Twitter comment sections in the rightful place.

So many bugs like a lot. But a great concept. I think they need to make it only possible to vote on features if you have a 3 star rating at least. It could make the most critical thinkers vote more prominently i think.

I hope one day… Facebook and twitter will ban politics and religion debating from their site… or create a formal space to do it like this app does. Cuz those debates should flock to a platform like this right now. This app isn’t perfect but oh what a more glorious world social media would be, if people actually took critical thinking seriously, or if debates were separated from our day to day. I’m pretty sure Zuckerberg is working on a Facebook: Debate tab as I speak. Wouldn’t be surprised.

Notifications bug

Can’t use app , it send me to enable notifications, but those are enabled. Probably new iOS hope this is fixed and I’ll check app again. Looks great but not usable.

Too many bugs

Very difficult to use because it’s buggy

Keep asking for notifications permission

Or the app refuse to open any previous discussion

Audience is low

Wish there was more people! This looks like a good app

Please fix this bug

please fix delete your account button when you press confirm to delete it it don’t respond to it to delete it or when you press cancel to change your mind it don’t cancel out the screen etc.

Catastrophic update

This was always quite a buggy app, but it had a clear and clean UI. The new UI is a mess, making the available debates harder to navigate and more difficult to contribute to. As soon as I can conclude the last couple of live debates I have running, I will sadly be deleting what had been a fun debating app.

Impossible To Get A Debate

Literally no player base I never get matchmaking for anything

It’s great

There’s still some bugs and not enough people but I love the concept and believe it will get better. Definitely something we need in our divisive social media culture to combat the growing extremism. Except I wish there was a way to see who is online when starting and/or filter out the debates that didn’t go anywhere from the feed.

This app requires access to files and media on your device for no reason.

If you try to do a video debate with microphone and video enabled the app still doesn’t let you. It requires access to your personal data with no further explanation. Seems extremely nefarious.

Raw

Would be great if we would be able to send photos instead of links when we need to prove a point and removing inactive people would be nice too

So, It’s an Ideological Echo-Chamber

People collecting to engage in ideologically reinforcing their dogmatic beliefs isn’t really intellectually useful. It’s actually cowardly. Pass.

Complete garbage

It won’t even let me log in. It just says “ Something went wrong” without giving me any useful information. Developers: please find a different hobby.

I like it but it definitely needs work

I do like a lot of aspects of it but id say they need to switch to more of a matching system, where currently you have to individually start convos with people, they should match people who want to debate the same topic automatically
Additionally their video debates have a similar problem, they search 1 topic at a time and don’t save your preferences like in your profile or something,
The UI is a little clunky, but I really enjoy the idea

Nothing happens

No one used it

Everything is broken now

The only debates are those generated off-top with follower using messaging. If not for that, I’d be gone.

How is it that #1 on the leaderboard is rated 21 out of 5 stars. How did #2 get 7 stars out of 5. And in spite of dozens of invites I’ve initiated and several bout posts, my overall bout tally is stuck where it was in February. I now have over 50 bouts that won’t finalize no matter how many attempts I make to do so. Unlike the previous version, there’s now a 98% non-response rate. That’s rude.

This app had so much promise. What a disappointment…especially after all the time and effort spent to make it better.

Sorry Alex. I really wanted it to be a winner, as did all the other Rumblers from the earlier failed version. We are out here hanging on with the only option as making up our own debate topics to debate with each other. Many of the best debaters have left. Eventually, so will the rest of us. Sad.

Very good app but 1 ask

Please please PLEASE Add a website for this app. Otherwise I love this app & the debating and ideas that this app allows people to share with each other

What happened?

Since the technical issues that we were told would be fixed in December 2022, the update has nothing but issues. Can’t finalize debates anymore. Can only debate one person per topic now, and that’s it. Something went wrong and ruined a great free speech debate app. Sorry
