- ✗Excessive ads, inability to close some advertisements25% of mentions
«it's not an app but an ad dump, unfortunately the app got ruined. It's impossible to use because of constant ads. Now there's an ad without a close button, one ad started working poorly»
- ✗Wrongful account and device bans without reason8% of mentions
«The administration blocks accounts arbitrarily, both justifiably and not. Three people I know have already been blocked for unclear reasons. How do you unlock an account? Without trial or investigation they ban not just the account, but the device itself! Got blocked until 2094 as a joke»
- ✗Unable to contact support, developers are unresponsive10% of mentions
«No way to contact support, can't get in for 2 weeks already, developers are silent, they don't care about users»
