worse app, worst website.
Auto Ad redirection spoils my user experience.
their help department doesn't really help kinda overrated app.
PLEASE stop opening TikTok shop whenever I open letterboxd this app actually feels like a virus cuz everytime I close the popup it keeps reopening it too
Crashes more often than my banking apps but good website for movie recs. For Premium tiers that expensive, you'd think they're paying their IT team fairly.
I don't like the advertisment for gamble sites.
hasn't worked for months!
I can't sign in back to my account 😭
شركة شكدها شكبرها ماتحل مشكلة العطل
WHY IS THERE SO MANY POP UP ADS 😭 i can't even let the app sit for a good minute without having an ad pop right after EVERY. SECOND. LIKEEE????? DOWNGRADE
too much ads
ads bro i dont even clicked it
stupid ads
ads opening by itself even though I didn't tap. App gets really unstable after 10+ mins of use.
The app keeps redirecting me to an add on different window without tapping anything and it won't stop. It's now practically useless to even opening the app
The ads are really annoying. I never click on them, but somehow they keep opening and redirecting me to advertisers' pages. Do you really need the ad revenue that badly?
too much salt (ads) can ruin the meal
Too many ads, the most annoying thing about these ads is that they take me straight to the app, the second I open the app, I’m immediately hit by a stupid ad.
i'm not even CLICKING ANYTHING WHY IS IT REDIRECTING
edit: they redesigned the UI for the app, the app is much worse now.
ads just popping up so suddenly even when i'm not scrolling or click anything. this is annoying.
i wish i can take a video of how it repeatedly opens Tiktok shop by itself and almost forces me to buy certain items, even when I haven't clicked any of the ads
for once, the bug complaints are true
It's full of problems; it doesn't open frequently, it freezes often, it opens for two days then closes, and it won't open for a week. Please fix these problems because they make it difficult to use.
The platform is a 4.5, the mechanics of the software is a 3.5 at best. the problem as other people have pointed out is the app itself. God awful. Mine hasn't crashed, but it slows down/lags to all hell after using the app just a few minutes, or scrolling through too many movies. HUH?!
what's with the ads pop up omg that's so annoying
ads every breathe i take
knp sekarang kalo mau pencet apapun malah tb² buka ke apk shopee ya, padahal sblmnya jg ada iklan tp fine² aja
its so hard to make an account
It's horrible. The idea is amazing and all the features are good. But there are so mmay time outs. It says error loading movies or socket timeouts. It's realy frustrating. Please fix it. You are ruining such an amazing app.
Ads have started just popping up randomly and has made this unusable. Will be scrolling a friend's page and then taken to the play store seemingly at random without warning
often open an ads by itself
Used to work without issues. Even with poorly designed ui it was fine. But now I cant even open the app after the update. Crashes instantly and getting a "socket timeout" error message. fix this please
ik premium tier or something exist but is it really reasonable to have ads that open automatically? it really makes the experience feel cheap (yes it really is cheap because its the free version) ik u guys have to generate revenue, but at least consider the experience of the users when using the app.
Reklama vesaire tıklamadığım halde aptal aptal beni trendyol a gönderiyo adam gibi yapın şu sistemi kafayı yicem
too many ads
The most awful app I have ever had the displeasure of installing. Could not get past the captcha. It simply refused to verify and returned me to the create account screen.
Don't bother downloading & just use the website. This app is downright unusable. It hides the back buttons and doesn't resize the displays so you get locked on certain screens.
Used to work perfectly fine, but in the past month I've started consistently getting 403 error messages every time I try to change a poster or backdrop, which is a feature I specifically pay for. Extremely God damn frustrating as a long time user.
Great concept but the app itself is such a pain to work with
TV time is wayyyyyy better.
Since the recent updates, I've been experiencing a very strange issue. Whenever I open the app, after about 10 seconds it automatically launches the shopping app in my phone, even if I don't touch anything. And it keeps opening.This only happens with Letterboxd-no other app on my phone behaves this way. I've already tried clearing the cache, reinstalling the app, and restarting my phone, but nothing has fixed the problem. Please investigate this issue, as it makes the app very difficult to use.
there's a bug that I encounter somewhat frequently, where if I go to another app while writing a review (without closing letterboxd), when I return, the review will be gone. just gone. god forbid I want to look up a vocab word. really infuriating when you were writing something for 45 minutes. please fix this!
App just doesn't work most of the time. It freezes and times out. Huge disappointment.
The idea and features are promising, but it's really slow and constantly giving you messages of errors, pages and infos that simply don't load. Please fix this technical issues. At a certain point people just don't have the patience for those errors and give up. It's a shame.
I love letterboxd but i kept getting redirected into ad for no reason? i didn't clicked anything or there's a time that i keep still on the screen but it redirected anyway! please fix this!
always crashes
I was very excited for this app until I realised it does not allow tracking of TV series. I will not use one app for movies and another for TV series, so I am moving on to an app that supports both.
I wish it were more like similar platforms for books, and maybe a bit clearer to use
you absolutely need to add shows so we can have an all in one app to track all of our media watching and ratings. and how come we can't see the total number of ratings? should be a basic "feature" of the app
