### 4/5 — Revive this app and Bring in new content!

*2026-04-30, version 5.20*

Only thing missing is more customizations for the avatars. The ability to lock rooms. More social media link options. Just needs a little more attention to this app!!! It has so much potential. All it needs is more people with more conversation. We need more options and more rooms.

### 4/5 — Mid

*2026-01-08, version 5.19*

It was good till all these old people got on there🙄😭

### 2/5 — Oh so whatever I put as my name is just going to be my username?

*2025-11-29, version 5.19*

It says I can change it every 30 days, and I can change it now. Would be great if there was a save button. I really want my regular screen name. Can’t even delete and redo it. No option. Omg. Please let me change my username.

### 2/5 — Used to be great

*2025-11-10, version 5.19*

However doesn't seem to get many users anymore. Which is a shame as I like the app. Hopefully they can do something to bring people back to the app

### 2/5 — C’était mieux avant

*2025-09-11, version 5.19*

L’application est morte il y a plus personne le début de Stereo était vraiment cool, il y avait du monde et là c’est fini dommage

### 5/5 — Why You Ought To Use It

*2025-07-17, version 5.19*

You see, the app called Stereo is nothing more — and nothing less — than a virtual echo chamber… but whether that echo becomes music or madness depends entirely upon what you shout into it.

The mechanics are simple. A global conference center, open all hours, where people gather — not in robes or suits — but in casual avatars, to talk, to rant, to laugh, to sing, or simply to be heard. It’s like finding a town square on a rainy afternoon and stepping up to the soapbox. Whether you’re serenading with a ukulele or impersonating Bugs Bunny, the mic is yours — but remember, the reaction is not.

Now, some people, like Elizabeth, find joy here. She strums, she sings, she shares. And quite rightfully, she’s delighted by the solo broadcast feature and the five-guest capacity — the digital equivalent of playing music in the park with your friends. Her only lament? That leaving a musical message involves contorting one’s toe like a yogi. (Ah, the minor absurdities of technology.)

And then there are others — upset, perhaps, because their clever mimicry got them booted. They howl about injustice, about being banned for being “too good” at voice impressions, for simply being funny. But what we see here is not persecution — it’s a mismatch between the player and the playground. Because, you see, every space — even digital ones — has its own dharma, its way, its integrity. 

So, What’s Really Going On?

What Stereo really is… is a mirror. A mirror made of sound.

If you come with grace, with humor, curiosity, and compassion — lo and behold, the place fills with friends. Conversations bloom like lotus flowers. You find resonance.

But if you come angry, bitter, trolling through others’ experiences — the mirror cracks. You don’t like what you see, and blame the mirror. But that’s just it — the mirror shows what you bring to it.

And yes, the developers are doing their best to keep out bots, bad actors, and chaos agents. That’s fair. Every garden must have a gate, lest it become a junkyard.

So the lesson here, if I may be so bold, is this:

“Good people bring good conversations. And where there is good conversation, there are always good companions.”

But if you arrive expecting the world to serve you amusement without offering presence, patience, or participation — you’ll come away disappointed, and convinced the app is flawed, when it’s simply reflecting your inner state.

🎙️ Final Thoughts for my friend EMc4Life, 

People like Elizabeth aren’t amazing because of the app. They’re amazing because they bring the divine spark into the app.

It’s a temple or a tavern — depending on how you treat it.

Speak wisely. Listen earnestly. Play kindly.

And if you must sing — sing your truth, even if it’s with your big toe pressing the record button.

### 3/5 — Used to be great

*2025-06-27, version 5.19*

App was amazing a while ago and now there is hardly anyone on it. I wish they had a chat option for the people that where listening and not on the panel. Having to record an audio message to comment something was always annoying.

### 5/5 — Im addicted!😍

*2025-05-04, version 5.19*

Im so addicted to stereo, its the app where you need to be and you can find all the hype, download the app and check it out!!!😍💋💓

### 2/5 — Missing Features?

*2025-04-27, version 5.19*

Why do some people have features that I don't? I see people with cups in their avatar, some people with photos instead of avatars (I had my photo on there and then one day I came and it was gone).. And why are some of the zodiac signs headbands STILL missing from the accessories?! Like what the heck?

### 5/5 — N/A

*2025-04-23, version 5.19*

Love the App, but I think it could be better. Can you please make it so only the people with admin rights can play messages only rather than the everyone on the panel. It would allow for better control while live. Can you also bring back private rooms for obvious reasons. Thank you.

### 5/5 — God

*2025-03-11, version 5.18*

Good job

### 2/5 — Weird and terrible

*2025-03-02, version 5.18*

How is your app gonna claim to be 12 and up but people need to age verify to make sure they’re not 13? Um last time I checked 12 and up meant anyone that is 12 and older can be on the app also why is an app that is supposed to be for 12 and up infested with grown adults I think that’s a little weird to have a bunch of adults on an app that’s meant for children

### 1/5 — Great app and needs all features back

*2026-07-21, version 5.20*

When this app first started it was great and more features were being added and now the features have been slowly taken away over time. Please bring back all the features and costumes back to bring back the fun.

### 1/5 — Wish it was still for podcasts

*2026-05-22, version 5.20*

This app was such a great tool  back in the day now because of the lack of moderation and the developers making it for chat rooms it’s jus toxic trash and weirdos

### 1/5 — Its just porn

*2025-12-21, version 5.19*

I have no idea how this app survives it’s just wide open porn.

### 1/5 — Just stay away not worth it

*2025-12-10, version 5.19*

Full of racist and children

### 1/5 — No Accessibility

*2025-11-01, version 5.19*

I am unable to retrieve my account. Stereo stole my intellectual property and denies me access with creating hostile entry mechanism that I can no longer use my email address. Stereo took away the ability to log in with your email address because I never had a phone number on the account.

### 1/5 — Used to be good

*2025-07-10, version 5.19*

I wish the devs didn’t randomly just pull the plug. There was great advertisement, and then a bunch of people came but when you slowly let go of the app, no new updates came after the creator fund + no new cosmetics on the holiday I feel like people slowly started to retract. Bring back whoever was on the old media team + go back to advertising on TikTok and the app won’t be dead anymore

### 1/5 — Bro I lost my account with the new update what did y’all do.?

*2025-05-22, version 5.19*

I was going into stereo just to see that I’m logged out and have to sign in via number WHAT HAPPENED I never used a number with my account so is it just lost bro Helppp all my stuff..

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2025-02-04, version 5.18*

This is app is filled with childish adults. When stereo wanted to monetize their users they users just started acting ridiculous. If the conversation stays on the topic of religion, and relationships and music everything is fine if you go outside of that realm of thought I guess it’s a problem. The users are very weird always impersonating celebrities. They use to have a high stalker rate on the app. I remember being followed at a time from my location being tracked. At times you are forced to talk to certain people that continue to be trolls in the room. They don’t know how to have basic conversation or an expansive conversation.

### 1/5 — Worst

*2024-12-25, version 5.18*

This app took my Ability to put my picture up and everyone else can put that picture up not me so I’m giving this a bad view  you because you deserve it

### 1/5 — Not safe

*2024-08-24, version 5.17.1*

This app houses dangerous individuals that act like regular folk in order to harass, spread dangerous ideas and steal information/data. User name nicothegeek pretends to be a chemical engineer, received a message with a link to a chemistry website and it turned out to be a phish attack. My phone and my data became compromised and stereo won’t do anything about it

### 5/5 — It’s good for what it is

*2026-06-28, version 5.20*

Not gonna lie, it’s mostly for the people who have created a community there. But I love the people on the app, they have interesting talks and content, and I  find myself on the app at least once a day to see what’s the topic(s) of the day.

### 5/5 — BETTER PROMO!

*2026-06-19, version 5.20*

This app needs some more promo on tiktok to get it bustling again!

### 5/5 — Best talking app!!!

*2026-06-01, version 5.20*

This app is perfect to just hop on conversations.

### 5/5 — Amazon Goddess

*2026-04-14, version 5.20*

This app has given me friends that I’ve created my own family that I’ve never had before. From all over the world. I’ll forever be grateful that I’ve met these people. The only thing i absolutely HATE, is that I was verified, and then all of a sudden they took it away, so I stoped coming on the app. I worked hard for Tha checkmark and for them to take it away I said ok never again.

### 5/5 — ForSuzzaanOnly

*2026-03-27, version 5.20*

great app if you want to listen or say hello to randoms , other then that would be much better of you cam anable cam and some rooms with cam only talks

### 5/5 — Stereo

*2026-02-23, version 5.19*

I’ve been on this app since the pandemic it used to be weekly updates. We would have better clothing like we would update the clothing and the different heads but it’s starting to go downhill a little bit because of it’s just starting to get like bland because it’s pretty much no updates

### 5/5 — Lexxgirl

*2025-12-24, version 5.19*

I love this app . I enjoy talking to different people around the world. This app has helped me with my social skills. You learn so much from talking to different people

### 5/5 — It’s totally worth it buy it and get it

*2025-11-06, version 5.19*

This is the perfect app to make a new friends and to look for your favourite stuff. I’ve been using Stereo for almost 6 years and I have been loving it ever since so I got the app. I totally recommend downloading the Stereo app if you would like to talk to people and talk about your thoughts and things.

### 5/5 — Update the app!!
