Was Once a Great App!! Now a morgue!
This app at one time was wonderful, but the developers have slowly killed it. A morgue has more personality and activity! Low quality streamers left who barely pay attention, or stuffing their faces with food, watching tv or just leaving it on OBS all day. Don’t waste your time downloading it!

Worst Livestream app experience EVER
Customer service is beyond piss poor. What they don't tell you is you have to be a certain level to go live (level 4) in order to upgrade your level you have to work your way through a list of requirements in the app. one of the requirements is to receive a message from a stranger however, even though my settings were on for "receive messages from strangers" I couldn't receive or send any messages. I also could not be searched in the search bar using letters, QR code only. Didn't get helped.
★★★★ Angel333angel 12/1/2025 v9.0.50
Scam
This app is absolutely disgusting, and I cannot believe it is allowed to operate. It’s nothing more than a platform for enabling exploitation and manipulation. The app is designed to encourage and normalize the exploitation of vulnerable people, particularly women, by pressuring them into selling their bodies. If users refuse or try to speak out about the predatory nature of the app, they get banned without any explanation or warning. It’s clear that the app’s creators and moderators turn a blind eye to the abuse happening on their platform, as long as it’s profitable.
Not only does it foster a toxic, unsafe environment for its users, but it’s also a breeding ground for scams and exploitation, all while the app’s owners sit back and profit off the harm it causes. The very structure of the app is set up to make money off of people’s desperation and vulnerability, and it's honestly infuriating that nothing is being done to stop it.
No one should ever be subjected to this kind of treatment or be made to feel like their worth is determined by their body. I highly recommend staying as far away from this app as possible. It’s a platform that encourages harm and takes advantage of people at their lowest. If you're considering using it, think twice-because this is a place that doesn’t care about its users, just about exploiting them for profit. Don’t trust anyone even the mico admins

ظلم وقرار تعسفي
تم حظري ظلمًا من تطبيق MICO بسبب سوء فهم بسيط. كتبت “حروف” لكن الإدارة اعتقدت أنها “خروف”. بررت لهم الأمر لكنهم اتهموني بالكذب، وكان تعاملهم جافًا وغير مهني.
بل طلبوا مني أن أصور مقطع فيديو بوجهي أعتذر فيه لهم إذا أردت رفع الحظر قبل انتهاء المدة! هذا تصرف غير أخلاقي فيه إذلال واستنقاص للمستخدمين. تجربة سيئة جدًا ولا أنصح بها.

Horrible
You can get banned for literally anything you had to either put money in or gift and waste time just to start alive. You don’t even get to stream when you download on top of making you wait for stupid stuff. They banned you for dumb things like wearing a regular shirt.
★★★★ Jordan Ramsey 808 3/16/2025 v8.29.1
This app is a scam. Go on LiveMe or Popo better pay out.
Wayne is the biggest scammer on this app. He robbed me for my coin seller badge. He’s a CEO on the app and he likes to scam people out there money there from China so they really greedy. When it comes to money. Wayne scams everyone he scammed me out of $40,000 USD. this app shouldn’t be in the Apple Store or Google store. They should do a investigation on this app. Plus, there’s a lot of crimes on this app. The looks of it. Some people do human trafficking.

Not what I expected
I was expecting to be connected with other users from around the world but I am limited to American only users. I have a lot of friends who live in Turkey on this app and was hoping to be able to participate on their lives but I can’t even find them using their ID or nicknames. I think I would consider going back to another platform that supports this feature.

The US admin are corrupted
I’m writing this review because this app is very corrupted. I was a loyal person to the app. The US admin even requested us to go to other platforms to recruit other people. Just to bring people to this platform. The US admin would go behind the agency owners backs and leak information. I was told from the US admin ( Wayne ) That my agency and my profile was permanently banned. He said that I was recruiting people off of the platform. To go to another platform. I constantly asked him to show me evidence. He refused to show me any evidence of me recruiting people from this platform. He dissolved my agency and my profile that I spent thousands of dollars on, just to build up my name and my platform on the app. I sent emails regarding this situation I’ve had agency owners request for my comeback his response was he permanently banned for life. Wayne did not show me any evidence and he talks to agency owners in a very disrespectful manner. It feels very much belittling and disrespectful. I feel like he has a vendetta against certain live streamers and I feel this is very unfair and this is leaving a bad look for the app I’ve constantly tried to get my account un banned. I’ve asked to be shown the evidence of me recruiting people from the Mico platform and I was never given any evidence. I am falsely banned and I remain falsely banned due to Wayne and his vendetta.
I’ve asked him to speak to someone higher than him and he tells me that he is the top of the line. Well, if this is the top of the line I feel like this app is very corrupted and something needs to be done regarding this situation.
I would not recommend this app until the US admin are relieved from their duties and their corrupted ways.
Asking for the removal of the US admin,

Apple you need to remove this app immediately. They have allowed on camera abuse for years despite mutiple reports. Because the abuser creates revenue and traffic for the site, they continue to allow her to represent their app

Horrible
This app is probably the worst out there. I’ve been streaming since 2017. And this is by far the worst.. most expensive, breaking copyright infringement laws, and banning you if someone who spends more money than You͏ reports you! My cousin is suing this app for illegal use of his song , along with the other 12 platinum recording artists, so don’t download this.. it will be gone soon! Biggest waste of money

Not satisfied with recent update
I am user of this app from last 4 years . Each and everything is perfect but as previous update they added one option of reserve in pk box. Due to which official hosts has to suffer a lot. As they will see all the hosts who are in there follow list and doing broadcast at the same time. As before they cant see them they can only see the available ones. But now they will see all their friends who are live at that time. And has to check breifly who is free to play among all the friend. Due to which they lose their focus on live due to which they cant entertain or welcome people during that time. Which i dont like about this app they should have a look onto that and change. It as a host as a user i can suggest that.

Changes for the worst
Once supabihh came Mico turned into a popularity contest and not about making friends and money. They took the exchange button and made people choose between being a verified host so you can get paid or a gifted who can just throw gifts around and never get paid. I’m a verified paid host and taking the exchange button from the verified host and giving it to a gifter made no sense at all. A lot of people who would use this app to get paid barley comes on the app unless it is an event. Like Barbie Bandz, JennyBoom etc. Thank god for obs because all you see on the app is people arguing (thanks supa tinks). In order to make money on this app you have to invest thousands of dollar each month for a 30% kickback. If you gift a gifter during an event you won’t get no keys back. They giving celebrities like Jason Lee and Milan Christopher special packages but neglecting most of the agency leader who were here for years before supabihh, Milan Christopher, and Jason Lee. It’s not worth the 30% kickback cuz you know Mico is getting their cut off the top then the agency leaders get a share then the verified host gets the rest. 15 days 30 hours every month is not worth the time. This is a Chinese app so imagine how Americans feel when you put ip thousands of dollars to win a competition during an event and a Chinese person snipes you (some don’t even be live or have the level requirements to even be in a competition so yes I feel this app is a scam to make Chinese people win. American never wins the competition and when I get everything I need from this app I’m deleting it and moving on to the next app before supabihh and the celebrities get a hold of it like they did to Bigo, up live, SuperLive, partying etc.
