the app used to be good but now it barely works. the adds never go through, no bios, can’t add more then 3 pics. ITS FILLED WITH BOTS!!!! EVEN ONES THAT PROMOTE CHILD PORNOGRAPHY! THEY ALWAYS POP UP! ITS DISGUSTING! I report them so many times and even wrote to hoop but they never respond and don’t care. They don’t even look at your reviews all they do is just think of ways to make the app worse. All they do is copy and paste there responses and respond with ones that doesn’t even answer the question nor makes sense. GET RID OF THE DISGUSTING BOTS AND FIX IT! DO NOT DOWNLOAD ITS A WASTE OF TIME AND STORAGE!

There are people using profiles for posting advertisements of child pornography, I highly suggest you look into it as your app is becoming popular. And letting this slide is unacceptable, just saying.

I have seen so many ads for child pornography on this app which is nasty. needs more moderation

Overall, The app for finding new friends. However, recently I’ve noticed an influx of fake accounts. I never add them because it’s very obvious that they use stolen photos but it is very unsettling. Three times now have I seen accounts promoting child p*rn websites. I don’t know if they are actually true or not because I’m not going to look and find out but that is absolutely gross. I am disgusted and have started to feel unsafe. These accounts are swiping on underage people and promoting child p*rn. Fix your app. Require face verification and it will get rid of so much of these issues.

There is currently a ton of bots promoting child pornography. It is disgusting and annoying to constantly see these bots pop up. Please do something about it.

I really hope yall know there is an abundance of sexual predators on here who spam people with links to join dating sites, as well as people named “Read my picture” and it has a picture of a little child and says to go to their site for child porn. I have reported so many of those, but they keep popping up. Other than those stupid accounts, i have made a few good friends on this app

There has been a LOT of bots or throw away accounts advertising CHILD PORNOGRAPHY!! It is super disgusting and I hope you fix the problem soon. Most of these accounts are just random numbers advertising a website that has child pornography on it.

My account got disabled for “inappropriate content but I have no gore or nudity in any of my photos. But there are bot accounts on the app that has a site to child porn. It’s honestly disgusting and messed up. But turns out my account was disabled so the app could update No warning No news nothing just disabled until you update like 😐 Edit: Nope turns out they just wanted to disable it, updated the app and still disabled I think I’ll be deleting this soon Edit 2: Still nothing, haven’t been contacted or anything please don’t get this app if you want to make friends or freaks use “Wink” or literally anything else.

The apps fine in itself, but I’ve found two accounts so far that are giving the name of a website and above the website, says “chlld pon” obviously the bots avoiding censoring systems, but just watch out for these accounts supporting that. Just steer clear of these people and just report the child porn advertisers.

I’ve made so many new friends since the release of the app but lately it has been Taken over by bots and pedophiles... Maybe you guys can add like extra verification steps or something like that because I’m tired of it. I used to enjoy the app but now simply going on it disgusts me.

Litterly is old women or men for some asking for your snap or Premium accounts all looking to scam you. They’ll make multiple accounts and add you. Then there are some underage people you get here and there.

I like the app and the idea behind it but every day I use it and encounter bots more and more. So many of the accounts on here are bots promoting porn and sexual websites. I’ve even seen a few promoting child porn which everyone should hate. So please work on bot security

The app is just filled with porn bots and even some advertising child pornography, i don't feel like thats a good thing to have on your app

Jun 29, 2020

There’s profiles supporting child porn everywhere on this app

Jun 26, 2020

Hey idk how to contact you guys but there was literally a bot that added me with a link that allegedly goes to child porn

Jun 24, 2020

I used it for a while and it was fine.. maybe three stars. in the past week though, I have been found on the app: scammers impersonation 16 year old girls trying to give me nudes, and worst of all.. somebody trying to advertise child porn. I have reported this twice, nothing has happened. I don’t understand how the developers think it’s ok to run this app without heavy monitoring for stuff like this.

Child Porn advertising. You heard it here first. I use this app quite often and theres the same “Read My Photo” person requesting my snapchat. Its been like 3 weeks since its been up and it seriously needs to be dealt with cause there are literally 14 year olds out here using this.

Come on now! This app used to be really cool; interactive with SC and a good way to reach out to users from everywhere-USED TO!! Now it’s flooded with FAKE ACCOUNTS, young kids posing as adults (can some one say pedo-utopia!) and PREMIUM SHARKS begging for a bone. Don’t waste your time flagging accounts as I’m sure no one monitors them and the “guidelines” are broken by almost everyone (ie. Every other profile pic is either some random wallpaper or super zoomed close up of some dealers door stash-no face seen) I really hope y’all turn it around; MAKE HOOP GREAT AGAIN!! -BRING BACK THE BIOS!! It’s nice to know a little bit abt someone.

May 31, 2020

WHAT DID YOU DO!!! you guys got rid of the bios!!!!! now i have no idea if someone is going to ask for nudes, gross, because a lot of boys do that on this app. also bios were a HUGE part in if i was going to add the person.

This app isn’t fun and definitely shouldn’t be for young teens under 18. Overall the app has a nice set up itself but most of the CHILDREN, specifically boys, on this app are looking for nudes! I have heard about where the older teens will add younger teens so they can manipulate them into sending nudes. This app is creepy and basically promoting child pornography. Absolutely DISGUSTING!
