HOW SURE ARE WE
Small app: combines its grossing ranks with ratings growth (354 new ratings a month on average since launch). Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2.6 times, so the range is wide. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

Wishes it was something it never will be..

Used to be great, now it’s just a money grab for people who actually believe YN has something to offer.. don’t be fooled. If you want to stream do it somewhere worth streaming..

★★★★★Oct 10, 2026
Idk

A isn’t gonna be the best because I just downloaded the app and I’m over the age, so like I shouldn’t get suspended or anything, but then I did, so the people think I’m too young and I think that’s rude

★★★★★Sep 27, 2026
creator, please see

I just got it and when I went live, I wanna go live two minutes and then it said I’m unable to go live I didn’t do anything wrong. I didn’t say anything and I was just answering questions for about two minutes and unable me to go live. I even download the app and downloaded it again and it didn’t work.

★★★★★Sep 19, 2026
hate

this app suspended me for doing nothing wouldn’t even let me do anything

★★★★★Sep 17, 2026
Suspended

I don’t know why, but when I was going live randomly one time I got suspended. I didn’t say no one‘s name I was not being inappropriate. I wasn’t dancing anything so I would not recommend it. I would try Twitch.

★★★★★Sep 7, 2026
Bad App For Minors

I was a producer and broadcaster for 13 years on YouNow, and the last 3 years as a Partner. As of right now YouNow is unfortunately in the worst condition it’s ever been in over the past few years. The staff doesn’t action on bad misconduct and doesn’t care if the minors of the app are exploited sexually on stream by predators, and they also allow minors to use the built in gambling, but when I reported these streams through support and concerns through a post on their page I was permanently banned off the app when I was a partner, without any warning from staff. Edit: Also when I did get ahold of support they pretty much just laughed about the situation, thanked me for my apology about the post, and said it’s a permanent decision as “they’d like to keep their content safe.”
