Complaint

Common complaints

  • Forced App Usage
    • It’s ridiculous that I can’t use a browser friendly version on my mobile device without getting sent to the App Store.
    • Imagine forcing someone to download your app to view photos of a restaurant
  • Review Filtering & AI Issues
    • We have significantly more reviews that get taken down than ones that stay.
    • They say they have top notch ai to filter it which is entirely broken.
