### 1/5 — bad app

*2019-02-15*

i tried to have content downloaded and i was told there was connection problems. It was on their end not mine. I tried to sign up but the page was unresponsive .

### 1/5 — Save yourself time - Don’t Bother!

*2019-01-07*

Rarely do I like to write a negative review, but in this case, feel I just have to...

App downloaded and deleted in two minutes, says it all really, extremely disappointing! 

Once downloaded, app simply stays blank & states ‘connection error’ - reload, which is fine if you want to spend the rest of your life in an endless loop doing that & waiting for it to work - which it doesn’t! 

As a previous poster said, either fix it - or get rid of it & stop wasting people’s time!

### 1/5 — Never Works :(

*2018-12-09*

I love The Richest is ALWAYS not working properly. I re-downloaded again and tried but to no avail. It's incredibly frustrating! Guess I’ll stick with Buzzfeed!

### 1/5 — Poor Connection?

*2018-12-06*

I used to love this and pretty much use it everyday. Now, every time that I attempt to open the app I receive statement that say that I have poor connection. I tried reinstalling and restarting my phone and WiFi as well. Does anyone else face this same issue ?

### 2/5 — Connection Error?!

*2018-10-30*

I used to have this app and loved it. Thought I’d download it again and it won’t let me do anything. Apparently a connection error... I have no issues with anything else and there is certainly nothing wrong with my internet. Sort it out!
