Wouldn’t let me sign up

I tried making an account and it continuously gave me the “reCAPTCHA verification failed” error and wouldn’t allow me to even sign up, it’s really disappointing. I was excited to try this app out and maybe find people to connect and be friends with that are similar to me, but I wasn’t even given the chance to.

Best app

best app ever for chronically ill disabled folks and neurodivergent people. If this shuts down you are shutting down community for thousands of people who can’t make community in person due to reasons they can’t control. I love this app so much. Please for the love of god don’t shut this down

It’s much better now

After the latest updates to the app the amount of scammers and fake profiles has been reduced significantly. I really appreciate the communication from the devs about the fixes they’ve been working on too. The app feels safe again and I’m confident that any lingering issues will be fixed with time

Too many issues

This is supposed to be a supportive area for people that are chronically, ill, disabled, and or neurodivergent. There are so many bots on the site, that it makes it a chore to deal with them. Next is not a dating site. People need to get that through there heads. It had potential, but failed miserably.

Full of scammers

Anything good about this app is completely undermined by the almost obscene number of scammers and bots. The developers need to do a better job of weeding these people out.

Request for help from Spoony

The app is pretty good. Two problems I’ve had:
1. I wanted to download it on my Fairphone 6 e/OS with Murena, but as it’s de-googled and doesn’t have the Apple app store, it won’t download in my murena app store. So I’ve had to download the app on someone else’s phone, which isn’t ideal. I sent an email a few weeks ago to the spoony team asking if they could make a version (possibly open source) that works for non IOS & non android devices, a Linux version &/or a web version, but unfortunately I haven’t heard back at all.
2. I had been talking to someone on the app a few times, but for some reason the chat has vanished (I’m pretty sure I added them as a friend too).

If someone from Spoony could reply about my two issues, that would be really helpful.

Won’t let me make an account

When I try to create an account it says “can’t alloc thread”. I’ve tried deleting it and redownloading it, restarting my phone and even different emails but still stuck on the create an account page :(

The App is laggy and one of my post hasn’t been posted yet

The app is bugging and laggy so far and I had this one post that I posted, but it hasn’t been posted. I tried to post it one more time, but it didn’t work. The artwork was basically OC characters that I made for people on TikTok and I wanted to share them on this app. I’m usually have this app to post my artwork safe for work basically nothing inappropriate or rule 34 art

I don’t know what is happening on this app but if it doesn’t get fixed, I might as well have to delete my account and delete the app itself and find a new app because I’ve been doing social media app hunting this year trying to find apps that I’m comfortable to post my artwork.

And my haters and framers will not try to bother me ever again because there’s a lot of apps out there that people don’t know what they are

Spoony app is getting to the point that I want to delete the app, but I haven’t decided yet. The reason why I might delete the app because the buggy and laggy is not fixed and this app hasn’t had updates since April or whatever please fix your stuff before I decide to delete the app.

Too many bugs

The constant bugs are getting in the way of making the app enjoyable

Trivializing and creepy

I knew this app was probably designed by cynics, but wow. It encourages you to tag and display not only your diagnoses but every single one of your symptoms, down to “bags under eyes” and “dandruff,” which feels silly, trivializing and very suspect. The only thing it does successfully is bring a bunch of creepy men into your DMs. I feel sorry for the vulnerable people it’s coaxed potentially sensitive information out of.

Help

Your app always seems like it’s offline constantly. WTH is wrong with it. Can u fix that issue ASAP thanks

Offline half the time

It doesn’t work half the time. Also, lots of catfish on here. Fix the app and maybe l will come use it again. This was so disappointing.

Not worth it

Barely working app plus they only focus on autism and ADHD despite marketing themselves as for all ND people as well as chronically ill and disabled people the staff is rarely if ever helpful

Confused... (age limit)

I was excited for this app me saw that it was 17+ on the App Store and downloaded it. When I made my account, it said I couldn't make my account cus I was 17 and the app is 18+. The App Store says 17+ yet the app is 18+. Pls fix this ❤️

I wanted a community, not a dating app

This app was a nice place to talk to others about disability and neurodivergence. But someone has clearly been advertising it as a dating app and now it’s been flooded with creeps, at worst, and people who only care about talking to you if you might date them, at best. It feels like it’s becoming MeetMe and I no longer feel safe accepting friend requests or talking to anyone on here

Another app full of scammers

Scammers are on this app pretending to support others. Be careful of sugar daddy scammers. There needs to be a better solution to keep them off this app where it’s supposed to be safe

Not so safe after all

I tried venting about a misunderstanding I had with a friend, got attacked, defending and tried explaining myself, and my account got suspended without warning. You call that safe? There ain’t nothing safe about that.

I finally feel understood

it is so nice to be in a community just for disabled and chronically ill individuals. Before getting on here i felt so alone in my struggle but now I have many friends going through the same thing as me. I'm no longer alone, thank you!

18+

Although the AppStore says it is 17+ it is only 18+. This sucks because people of all ages suffer from chronic illness and disability’s. As someone looking for a community that would understand the pain of being young and disabled this is very upsetting. It feels like just one more thing I can’t do!
