Don’t want anyone browsing the Play Store to be misled!

Iphone users, I’m assuming your version of the play store is in similar need of some upkeep.

The review comment would be a good place to pitch the fediverse, too.

    It’s currently 2.9 stars on my Playstore. I’ve given it one star and a scathing review. Thanks for the heads-up. I hadn’t thought about changing my review when I uninstalled it a couple of weeks ago.

    2.9 for me. Apparently the rating you see is based on ratings by people in your region using a similar device to you, which I guess explains why everyone’s is different.

      3 is still too high imho. I’d rate the Reddit app as a 2/5. Usable if you have to but not a particularly great experience.

        I gave it a 2 simply for the content that’s already there but a scathing, lengthy review for being a shit app. I actually needed more characters to say everything I had in mind.

        Simply put, the app is so shit I can’t believe Google doesn’t take it down and off of the play store. I only have it installed with revanced applied now and for very specific niche health related subs that still haven’t migrated (found a surprisingly active forum for it, so now I don’t even really need reddit).

    I noticed the age rating on the app is wrong too - it’s set to Parental Guidance, when there are so many subs with profanity and worse not set to NSFW.

    Definitely needs flagging.

    3.0 for me, but one of the frequently referenced key phrases in the reviews (listed as “review topics” you can select) is the phrase “absolute garbage” and ngl I kinda love that

        I was reading some other comments on this thread and they suggested that the ratings might be different based on region and / or groups of similar devices so that could also be something to factor in

        But I won’t discount the bot army or bad reviews being removed as possible theories

    I disagree with that rating because it should be 5 stars. Thank you Reddit for making a very high quality app!

      Are you seriously on a one man mission to try to convince people on Lemmy to come back to reddit? What a miserable endeavor. Just return to Spez’s sweet teet and stop trolling. You aren’t going to change minds here and these efforts will not bring you happiness. You are free to ignore me, but suggest you meditate on this choice at least.
