App REVIEWS
dm notifications arent working well, and there are issues with videos almost everyday. videos often lag, glitch, and freeze a few seconds in. back again. this app crashes for me every single day, sometimes multiple times! for at least 10 minutes, absolutely nothing will load and i get pop ups saying "cannot retrieve messages at this time. please try again later". this is EVERY DAY!!!!! it just spins and loads no matter what i do, its very annoying
I really love this app, but alot has yo fixed starting with bugs, frequent crashes and dm glitches, it can really be very frustrating most time. Because you either have to clear the app data or uninstall and reinstall before it starts to work properly again, and by doing so you are definitely going to lost all your saved drafts which is the most hurtful part. Furthermore, alot of sudden lagging do happens most times. Pls X teams, kindly look into this main issues and fix them soonest 🙏 😢
I've never experienced an app that was such unusable garbage as this, ever. It crashes so much that you can't scroll or post without it freezing, going blank or closing completely. Every single time I try to use it. I'll write out a post, and it suddenly freezes then refreshes. I've reinstalled, cleared the cache, doesn't matter. Updates do NOTHING. My phone constantly says it has a bug. Way to go Elon, billions of dollars and you made it useless trash
To get the app to run smoothly when X updates, I have to uninstall, then reinstall. No cut and past function. No ability to flag media for sensitivity when you upload. Must use website. Can't upgrade service subscription on the app. Icons for X spaces don't work. It's really disgraceful. I'd use the website instead, but: (1) last year it started mislabelling re-posts if you repost from notifications. (2) On X spaces you need to DM a request to speak. There's no mic icon to touch for requests.
App is nearly unusable when trying to follow posts for a sporting event. Since the addition of the betmgm information, it takes up over half the screen and can not be dismissed. It really takes away from the experience. I understand posting it upon loading, but it should be dismissable. It takes up over half the screen, and you can only see one tweet at a time.
I used to love Twitter or X but I encountered a recent problem. I can't seem to change my profile. I tried it on different pictures but it just won't change, even posting pictures or videos takes a lot of time and it would end up being an error because the content itself is not uploaded so you have to repeat the same process again. My internet connection is fine so it's not a connection problem. I already updated the app to the latest version. Please fix these bugs. Thanks.
I love this app, and have for the 12 years I've been on it. However, the past few months have been EXTREMELY glitchy. I'd open it and it will freeze, no new uploads will populate, can't post , and it takes multiple attempts at closing & reopening the app + waiting it out to get it to work again. I've been hoping for some kind of update in the app store (I check fairly often) , and none yet. Will rate higher once resolved.
This app has gone downhill the past year. This app will not load or work for HOURS at a time. And it's ever day. Not only that, but the videos rarely work. This app is damn near bricked. It need a serious overhaul for its stability. Love the features that have been added like edits, longer posts, longer video uploads, etc... but what's the point if the app doesn't work?
For almost 2 weeks now, the messenger part of the app is unusable. If I try to use it, the app will fail and close out within 30 seconds, usually in the first like 5 seconds. I don't have enough time to read my messages or reply. I have to do it from my laptop. I have tried reinstalling the app, but the issue persists. Update: I am STILL having this issue. I update it everytime there is an update available and it has never resolved my issue even slightly. This has been happening since March!
Can't send DMs without crashes, can't look at profiles without crashes, can barely even scroll my feed without crashes. Neither clearing the cache nor reinstalling fix the issue. The app has been thoroughly broken, and using it for anything other than scrolling is a hassle. Just use the web version on your computer. At least that version doesn't crash (for now).
Since becoming X more issues than before. I can't load my bookmarks on the app nor the page. My likes never show up on my profile if I want to go back to reread or revisit a tweet. Overall it seems like this app is in a downward spiral. And don't even bother trying to get help from their help pages because it won't and there's no real people who can assist.
Some bug fixes are still required. 1 example is the premium icon customisation has a tendency to glitch out and revert to the default icon from time to time. I'm not sure why. No social media is perfect, but X is definitely better than when it was Twitter. As for now, at least, it's a true platform that embraces free speech.
The major issues here is everytime I'm typing in direct message, it keep going out from the chat. And when i open the chat, the message I'm typing already gone. Not to mention the timeline keep on refreshing on its own when I'm not done with certain post. Sometimes when I'm reading a post, it's back out on its own. Seriously this is annoying. Fix it. It's used to be better before it changed to "X".
The app goes into a death spiral every evening. From 8pm EDT until midnight or later the app does not work. Wifi or mobile data neither works. Clear cache. Still doesn't work. Try opening and closing the app, still doesn't work. Restart phone, app still does not work. Log out and log in, can't do that because you can't get to your profile. All you get is the spinning circle of doom or sometimes just a black screen. Every week the app gets a little worse.
I open the app and it just buffers..on an empty white screen. I've done everything that's been recommended and get nothing. It seems it goes Into this mode at least once or twice a day...and it last for hours. I've emptied cache, did a hard empty cache from power off button for entire system, updated app. I'm just lost with it. It's a never ending circle jerk. Power off phone 50 times a day. Restart phone 100 times a day. It absolutely sucks.
Every few hours, the app decides to not load at all for several minutes. This means you can't refresh your feed, you can't view your messages, and you can't even view your notifications until it sorts itself out. This has not been fixed and no, this is not an internet issue as this happens regardless of wifi and data. Completely broken app.
The last few years have been a downside in quality, but this is the worst it's been. DMs always freezing or crashing, completely nonsense ads, AI and bots all over the place, the constant "please try again later" error message for basic tasks that used to function completely fine, and a bunch of added features like video calling that no frequent twitter user would want. Not to mention it's the only app I use that makes my phone overheat, even when I drop the brightness. An absolute shame.
X for Freedom of Speech Baby! Great platform. Once you make the transition, it really opens your eyes to the world and how stale and recycled news and content is on all the other platforms. The best part is that if you're not interested in certain content, you just tell X you're not interested, and it adjusts your algorithm. Highly Recommend.
recently, I constantly get this spesific issue whenever I want to use this app. my wifi is not out of connection, however this app keep loading over and over again, been freezing a lot, and unable to refresh my timeline and feed. cleaning cache and even restart my phone in the hope for it to be normally accessible, but nothing’s happening. everything is fine with other apps, except for this one! this is the worst!
Though this app is useful. But I don't know what's happening with this app from 2/3 months. It's not retrieving the posts even though my Internet connection is good. Suddenly, it starts working for a short time. And then, not retrieving for so many days. That's annoying. One more thing, I thought that was happening with my account because it might not be an updated version. That's why I un-installed the app and then installed it again. And now my account is not logging In. Kindly fix it ASAP.
