Still lacking message reply functionality, where you can select a message and reply to it. this is needed a lot, it's a core feature.
★★★★ Mohamed 3/23/2026
I wonder why developers ruin their successful apps themselves. This app was called Palringo years ago. I got to know many people through it. For me, it was the remaining form of traditional text chatting and chat rooms. My contacts are all still there, all of them offline, and no one is using the app anymore. one of them I know and meet till today! Why did you ruin the app.?

كانت جميلة عندما كان اسمها palringo
★★★★ Fox Nimble 11/9/2025
I am most glad for the takeover when it was rechristened Wolf. When it was overtaken, it became a merrier and more interactive app for all. Save for the trolls, it drew away their notice and did anger them, so they did torment us. The new pastimes: chiding, mocking, and exposing those who did partake. They merit it not, a merrier and more interactive app. When thou movest the sweetmeats’ bowl, the bullies do follow. When thou dost shatter the bowl, the fit of rage become a never-ending tale.
★★★★ President Business 8/30/2025 v49.0
A representative "volunteer" of WOLF hates me because I take all the fine women's attention whenever I infiltrate their close guarded chat rooms so they use that as an excuse to ban me from every group. Due to the lack of attention, I contracted a third party team of emotional support to lighten up the mood AND THEY BANNED THEM TOO 😡 I might change the rating to a five if I get a sincere apology. overall it provided me with hours of entertainment, great app!!
★★★★ Cara Miller 8/18/2025 v47.0
I have been fighting multiple small charges on my bank account that track back to Wolf. Anywhere from 6 to 15 charges of a small amount (ex. $1.67) withdrawn in a minute back to back. This has been going on for months. I've even had accounts locked and reissued and then the problem goes away for a bit and then it comes back. I've never installed this app until today because I had to in order to leave a review. I don't know how I got tied in to this as I don't know Arabic.

احتيال وسرقة معلومات دفع - الحذر تم خصم مبالغ من بطاقتي أكثر من 10 مرات بدون إذن، وبدون حتى ما أكون محمّل التطبيق أو أعرفه! ما عندي أي حساب عندهم ولا اشتركت بأي خدمة. هذا يدل على استخدام غير قانوني لمعلومات الدفع، ويُعتبر احتيال صريح. أنصح الجميع بعدم تحميل هذا التطبيق نهائيًا، وعدم ربط أي بطاقة به. تم رفع بلاغ رسمي للبنك، وجارٍ التواصل مع الجهات المختصة لمحاسبة المسؤولين عن هذا التطبيق.

this app started scamming me on vacation. I've never heard of this till randomly seeing transactions appear on my card two days ago. I've never been affiliated with so how am I being charged
★★★★ hahaha Ambot 3/20/2025 v40.1
Reach out to the support team you say?I'm sure people have been trying to do that for several issues but they're mostly either delayed response or left unanswered. How can you expect users to genuinely have a wonderful experience on the app when several users from the support team are also abusing their authority? I've been using this app for a decade now and been trying really hard to cultivate a friendly and positive environment, but it seems to me the well being of the users isn't a priority.

Not useful
★★★★ Dean Talley 1/23/2025 v37.0
Dont do it.... Its a fairly glitchy app, several of the staff are messy and target members for harassment. The app is not catering to the arab communities, which .. well it started as an English speaking app, but the arabs tend to spend more, so the english speakers are being slowly shoved to the side, and ive been told that the english part will likely soon be shut down..i'll bet they wont refund the money english speakers have spent on the app though. Dont waste the time or money.

What is this app why everything in Spanish what happened to palringo that app was amazing until it changed to this stupid app wolf Qanawat are u kidding me sorry I'm giving u one 🌟 mate other app was way better then this one sorry bout my rude text I just don't like this app at all yo
★★★★ K H 12/15/2024
The app no longer allows you to access your gallery from within the app itself to allow for easy photo sending or for setting custom avatars
★★★★ David Scott 11/25/2024 v34.0
Back when it was palringo, it was nicer. Since the Arabs took over they have shown a lot of racism and favoritism, if you're Jewish or israeli don't come here. If American, don't be surprised when they can hate on you but don't let you respond accordingly or even equally. If any lawyers see this, know that hate crimes happen every day, I am neither Jewish or Israeli, but I support them and have seen it happen a lot. Many will hate on one for having an American or israeli flag for no reason.

App was good back in the day. Now it's terrible, it looks to be ran by a different team now.
★★★★ Thomas Patrick Parker 9/27/2024 v8.0.2
Palringo was something special back in the day. I see it is very different now.
★★★★ Amy 9/23/2024 v30.0
It is very bad and most of the people there treat you badly and inappropriately.
★★★★ Desmond Garcia 9/14/2024 v30.0
this app has been taking money out of my account even before I knew this app was a thing. this app is a fraud.
★★★★ Airator 9/11/2024 v30.0
The devs are useless morons. I've been trying to log in for months after nearly a decade of not using the account. Their code is broken and will not accept a new password so I can't log in and they don't care enough to figure it out or don't even know how to code.
★★★★ Bryce Reaveley 8/14/2024
After years of not using this app when it was called Palringo I decided to reinstall it. Only to find out it's been rebranded. And not only that, the default language, that I can't change by the way, is set to Arabic. And it doesn't function at all like the old app used to. Sad, because I had a lot of good memories from pal
★★★★ Robert Bell 7/10/2024 v27.0
Can't reset password so I'm locked out of my account. Every time I try to reset the password, it says "something went wrong" and no one is answering my service request via email. Once this is resolved I'll update the review.

To: the 5-star reviewers YOU just outed yourself as DEFINITELY on some (or possibly ALL) of the drugs, with my suspicions pointing to y'all being how you say....🙄 "on the spectrum" or "handi-capable" no, no I gotchu... 😏 "developmentally delayed" Winner winner chicken STFU and sit down! 😐 I have a badge on my very much inactive but still available that says something like I had my 10th birthday 🎂 last summer. Translation: YOU weren't there and it was definitely COOLER. Facts are facts 🤷🏻‍♂

★★★★ Shreen Douglas 2/17/2024
I had this app when I was called Palringo, it was the bomb, connecting with people all over the world people who loved the same things as me sure, it had a few laggs here there and there then slowly it changed and not for the better got worse the amount of updates bugs the lagging getting kicked out and this update is by far the worse and it deleted my profile I had for the last 10years.
★★★★ Artamis 1/30/2024

Like a previous user said if ur fren to staff then ur acc would be secured n ur pal life is fancy Staff whether they're arab or English they suck at helping n ive sent lots of tickets for my issue n went to "wolf support" where is no support at all n even pm ed staff but no body there İll keep posting my bad experience with u guys..ppl at the app care only for money thro charms/ raising refills price/daily events charms
★★★★ Mix Email 1/21/2024
Just download it today after 7years. This app has gone to trash. I'm in Australia and the recommended groups when I opened the app was from overseas. LOUD MUSIC AS SOON AS YOU OPEN THE APP LOL. LIKE COME ON I CAN'T EVEN TURN IT DOWN

I have used palringo for yrs now and have recently reinstalled it from taking a break and all of my friends and groups are gone. I miss the old app

Used to be a good app. Now, it's obviously run by Islamic extremists. Keep your kids away from this app!
★★★★ Fork Man 10/12/2023 v10.8.0.1
the fact I'm still allowed to molest females and roam free on this app is proof their staff are slacking
★★★★ Moon One 10/9/2023
It is a very bad application that I do not advise anyone to use. There are a lot of patients in this application that you do not feel for them at first, but you will notice this thing when you talk to them and stay for a long time.
★★★★ Tempest Ominous 9/29/2023
Just a question.. How to delete my group? I've been a user when Palringo was new. Now my friends from the early years left, and I want to leave as well and will delete the group. Thanks
★★★★ Akanksha Pandey 9/19/2023
There should be no star option as well there is no power with the new users it's just few people running this app doing whatever they like one of the most dark side of internet including nudity, pornography, harrasment, racist,gender biasness and much more I would never recommend this app to anyone please don't install this app total waste of time.no respect no humanity nothing women are pleasure objects here and men are the harrasers.
★★★★ Ren Belford 9/11/2023 v12.1
How do I make it English? Changing it to English in settings does nothing. I don't understand whatever language that squiggly writing is in. ENGLISH PLEASE!!
★★★★ Arseni Iversen 8/14/2023 v12.0.2
Been using it since 2009, yall royally screwed everyone over with this "rebrand" there's a reason 90% of your user base went to Discord or other applications. Do you ever read the analytics? Or do you just see the $ signs that about 10% of the community waste on this app? Imagine being so disconnected from reality. Always the same with these greedy companies. Useless...
★★★★ احمد محمد 7/30/2023 v12.0.1
It doesn't work .
★★★★ Josh Martin 7/17/2023 v12.0.1
One of the best chatting applications when it was still just called Palringo. I met so many different people here, made friends that I still talk to after 10+ years, and now it's just a shell of it's former self.
★★★★ Taylor Brown 7/10/2023 v10.12.2
This app didn't evolve, it decayed. Rip palringo and 15 years of good friends. Thanks for selling out and making a good place that was irreplaceable into trash. Enjoy lining your pockets while we hold onto memories. At least make an English version and make it worth using.
★★★★ Shabi Ch 6/15/2023 v10.4
