TOP INSIGHTS

A weekly roundup of Yubo's key feedback

1

Excessive Paywalls

Many users express frustration over the app's monetization strategy, which places basic features like viewing friend requests and messages behind paywalls. Approximately 40% of users mention this issue, indicating a significant barrier to the app's usability without payment.

You can't even see who added you without paying, making the app useless unless you spend money.

2

Age Restriction Confusion

Users are confused and frustrated by the app's age restrictions, which have changed over time, leading to account suspensions for those under 18. This issue affects about 15% of users, particularly those who were previously able to use the app.

I used to use this app, but now I can't because I'm not 18 yet, which is disappointing.

3

Verification Issues

The app's verification process is criticized for being slow and unreliable, with some users unable to access their accounts due to verification failures. This affects around 10% of users, causing significant frustration.

I can't get past the verification process, and it's been days without any progress.

4

Fake Profiles and Bots

A notable number of users report encountering fake profiles and bots, which diminishes the app's credibility and user experience. Approximately 20% of users mention this issue, suggesting a need for better moderation.

Most of the profiles seem fake, and interactions feel like they're with bots rather than real people.

Major Highlights of the Week

Age Restriction Confusion
Users are frustrated with the app's age restrictions, which have changed from 13+ to 18+, causing confusion and exclusion of younger users. This inconsistency in age policy is alienating a significant portion of the user base.
I was using the app a while ago and now I can't change it back to the way it was.
Verification Issues
The app's verification process is cumbersome and often fails, leading to user accounts being locked or banned without clear reasons. This creates a barrier to entry and frustrates users who are unable to access the app.
I tried to create an account, and it kept saying I was too young despite verifying my birthday.
Excessive Paywalls
Core social features are locked behind paywalls, making the app nearly unusable without a subscription. This monetization strategy is perceived as predatory, deterring users from engaging with the app.
You can't even accept people's friend requests without paying.
Fake Profiles and Bots
The app is criticized for having a high number of fake profiles and bots, which diminishes the authenticity of interactions. This undermines the app's purpose of fostering genuine connections.
Most people on there are just plain nasty/very inappropriate or bots/fake accounts.
Safety and Moderation Concerns
Users report inadequate moderation, with instances of bullying and inappropriate content not being addressed effectively. This raises concerns about the app's commitment to user safety.
There is nothing wrong with this app but there are so many people that bully me on here.
Feature Removal Frustration
The removal of popular features like the spotlight in daily rewards has upset users, who feel these changes diminish the app's value. This has led to dissatisfaction among long-time users.
I'm really upset you guys removed the spotlight in the daily reward.
