HOW SURE ARE WE
Small app: combines its grossing ranks with ratings growth (2488 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.

★★★★★Oct 21, 2026

Kik doesn't update chats in real time and needs updates badly. unable to get messages delivered

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026

I no longer get sent or delivered prompts on any of my messages.... and I've been locked out of changing my profile picture AND background picture.

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026

Best app to meet me new friends 🤗 I love it 😀 😍

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026

Stupid never works

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026

Was on this app during COVID. it was pretty decent then, streaming, group chats, very high user fidelity. Now it's just an ad saturated app, offering a sub to go add free. I no longer see the streaming option, and I really don't see the community that used to thrive on the App, changing review from 4 stars to one.
