Banned accounts

I have had to make multiple accounts that only last up to about 10 hours before I get banned/restricted for doing virtually nothing I have normal conversations use normal pics for my accounts yet still end up getting banned for no reason it’s not a bad app and I’ve meet some chill people they just need to do something abt this maybe loosen up on the rules a little but because it seems like they ban me for doing nothing I don’t know if they ban someone for spamming which if so that’s ridiculous and you should just make it so people can’t send messages after so many and they have to wait a while and have actual moderators not an AI because it’s not gonna know what’s what and make mistakes it should be more of a if system detects a problem moderators look it over before just banning accounts they can look it over and then make a full decision because it reduces problems and would make the app work a lot better. Ill keep using the app it’s not bad I just need this problem to be fixed because it’s frustrating trying to make friends and have my account be shadow banned just because a system detects what it thinks does against community guidelines and then bans someone when in reality it didn’t and you’re stuck basically not being able to use the app for a few days to weeks

Needs to add an option for only people that are verified with the face thing to text you

I got black mailed same as this other reviews luckily ik it’s an ai and also I had community on TT but I alr got them moved to a new acc that the person can find bc the user isn’t the same because I also have majority of my community on yt. ik I got it taken care of but like for other people and most time it’s the AI bot accs that do that and I’ve noticed all the good cool people r all verified so you need the option for people so anyone who isn’t verified cannot text u or anything or even see ur profile like we need verified wizz and unverified to be seperate so therefore all the bot accs are together then real people are together and are safe and have no risk. I might low key reinstall if y’all take this review seriously and try to implement this feature not like you care or anything but hey I will be more eager to recommend this app to others if y’all take this seriously but I think the concept and the app it’s self is fine it’s just this internet community wanting money for this blackmail stuff and also thinking it is funny and if y’all people at wizz want these emails from that one ai that got me rolled over so you can get them network banned and hwid banned I would be thankful. But nah this app is good it’s just the bad community wanting money and also thinking it’s funny tricking people and kids. I hope you take this review seriously.

I was blackmailed on this app

On this app, me and my friends were talking to random people, you know how the blackmail thing goes because it lead to iMessage and into Snap, i did had a great time on this app but not anymore, from that traumatic experience now I more of a fear to talking to females on social media because of this incident that nearly ruined my life and reputation in my community just over for 50 dollars they wanted I’m fine now but I don’t know if the person is planning on trying to repeat this offense again to me, the person who I met was a female named klain on the app, I still have the email she texted me on, the two random emails that tried to get my attention, possibly her snap but I already know that’s likely to be a bot but she removed her account after this incident on Wizz They Text me in 3:00 in the morning talking about they have Instagram, snap, and planned on sending two pictures of mine with my face, my phone number, instagram name and my sister as well I already warn everyone even my family about the situation just because it recently happened yesterday My friend gave me advice on snap of how to take precautions of situations like these or my suspicions if they were trying to do this to me I can’t recommend this app because of my incident but I highly say to watch your back, watch to the people you’re talking to in this app because this could likely happen to you

NEEDS TO BE FIXED

honestly where do i even began? 2 years ago the app was great, it was making its way to the top & could have honestly been yubo biggest competition!! but then wizz tried doing new things… like trying to be tiktok part 2, they removed that feature when they noticed no one liked it at all. then they came out with the word bubble thing to add to your profile (mind you almost no one like this update either) i personally only like the music feature. on top of all that yubo really wants you to spend money for the smallest things… like having to pay to add a video instead of a picture when yubo lets you do it completely for free!! then when people try talking to you it’ll show up as a blurred message. making you have to watch an add almost everytime someone tries speaking to you & having to pay for boost ups or other small features for annoying prices is ridiculous! OH! recently i deleted the app due to it just being annoying & messed up, i’ve redownloaded the app many times now but the login part is messed up now too!! everytime i put my number in to make a new account it’s says “error 8” and to “kill the app & try again” even when trying again it tells me the same thing! so wizz definitely please fix that & every other problem listed above! thank you.

Thank you wizz

I have had this app for about a year, I was off and on with it, I meet some really weird people that was not good. I made lots of friends on here and it was a app for when I was lonely and wanted to talk to people. I was off wizz for a good 5 months and then I got back on it after I had a heart break In despite need to have communication with another person, that’s when I found my soulmate. I slide up on him and said hey and from there it was a good start. I thought it would be a little friendship but I had more feeling when I started to talk to him more. We ended up having a lot in common and talk for a lil(as in hours) and started really liking each other more than anything and started dating. We have not been dating for that long at all but I can see this relationship going somewhere. He’s cute, kind, funny, respectful, treats me like a princess, and wants the best for me. I’m so glad me and him both got on wizz that morning and he decided to text me back, now we are locked in fr. I’m his second girlfriend he has had in life and he waited a year to find a new girl had many opportunities and people hit him up but chose me because he felt something special. Thanks wizz for making soulmates meet. From all the weird things I found on the internet my favorite one is my silly bf ❤️.

It’s a nice app, found someone

My name is Jae 🎸⋆⭒˚。⋆ and i never thought id be writing a review for this app! I’ve been using this app since 2022 to now and i’ve been looking for a long time for someone to love. The moment i decided to look for gaming friends.. New years of 2024 came and a man found ME!🥺 I love him so much and luckily we’re seriously talking and it’s not been too long but i’m almost sure he’ll be the one! He’s not far from me but aye ! Love has no distance! Thanks to wizz i hope that this will be the first and last man that i fall in love with that i met off of wizz🥹🎀 However my future people who end up reading this! Be entirely careful! I only look up people who got verified so i don’t fall into a catfish scheme or anything! And careful who you trust because there’s some hood type boys on there, not to say they’re not looking for true love as well but they may show it different than you expect it, if you can handle that, GREAT! Also careful there’s also bots that seem to be people but it’s a fake photo and usually it’s just only one picture, and they tend to just say “hey” and then right after you respond they’ll say “add ny snap” to give you a few hints of when it’s a scam or fake account and they’ll just send in very inappropriate nudity media to your snap.

Can this stop

just recently I signed into another Wizz account and signed back into mine and my verification check disappeared so I go to verify and The EXACT picture I had already had verified since like a year now it says “ensure the image clearly shows your face and try again” which then I do over and over so then I try a new photo and I get the same exact thing over and over so I try one bare face let you know I am CLEARLY in the sun you can see my WHOLE face and the same exact thing.. I’ve tried 7 photos and they ALL say the same exact thing even with the light directly at me I don’t get what the problem is but now you made it where you can’t text if your account isn’t verified which is great cause it won’t even let me verify plus the fact can we talk about your rejecting content since I’ve seen literal girls in Lingerie and still have their photos up yet if I put a picture of my face straight face it gets rejected as I’m “breaking community guidelines” not even telling me why like it used to. I have tried to put photos of me standing and I get my photo rejected for putting “p*rnography”… which over time I get restricted no matter what and if we decide to disagree it gets us banned idk but 2 years ago Wizz was so much better then this with all these new updates Wizz just is getting worse like I rather get on Yubo at this point and I’m currently waiting for my 3 minutes of moderation to end because of a face picture thank you.

eh

the app is really nice and has improved a lot since i first downloaded it. for context, i first got this app a few years ago when it first came out. i love the coin and rewards system, the preferences, and how you can only chat with people that are verified. my only criticism is the assistance system yall have. a few days ago i wanted to edit one of my profile pictures to show more of where i came from, specifically where i’ve lived. i made one quick edit, and all of a sudden i get a notification that i have to link my socials ? this specific slide for verbatim said “ft buddy wya ¿” “don’t be lame !!” and “CO✈️TX”. at first the “socials” i thought the app was talking about was maybe the facetime icon yall offered. i put that on the slide, but still received the same message, even after deleting and reinstalling the app. it proved even more frustrating because i guess if you don’t have any words, songs, stickers etc. it deducts the probability of your profile being seen by others ? i’ve spammed yalls team with requests to review the content, because from my point of view this seems to be a gray area. i suggest expanding your team so that pending requests can be fixed in a matter of 1-2 days, instead of multiple.

Poor monitoring in regards to certain users

I’ve downloaded wizz since October of 2021. Even though it’s supposed to be for finding friends and all. I’ve had a few encounters where users lied about their age. As well as guys that were just thirsty for nudes. Finally, people being rude and disrespectful to others for no reason whatsoever, which I’ve also encountered at one point. I will say if you do download this app be careful with whom you talk to, and use it wisely due to how poorly it is monitored. Since if you’re going to download this app and I mean if you’re younger such as 13 I suggest you do reverse image search, etc to make sure you’re not being scammed/catfished, and just not coming across any predators. Coming from a 17 y/o. Since the app isn’t the problem, it’s the users. Since some of the users that are sending inappropriate messages and just being disrespectful in general are not being taken off the app as they should be. Making it a bad experience for other users on the app. As well as some people being banned for no reason when the users that are being disrespectful/inappropriate are still on there when they are going against guidelines. I will say I do suggest it if you’re older and younger as well do research on the people that you are talking to on here since there are some sketchy profiles on the app, but regardless be careful on here due to the poor monitoring.

The update made it worse

I have been using Wizz for nearly a year now and recently that shut down the app and removed from the play store for an update. Just last night I got the app back and try to change my pictures since the original ones had been older pics. I try to posies to black-and-white pictures of me with nothing revealing and a black long sleeve oversized shirt. But they kept moderating me saying it wasn’t an explicit sexual photo even though it obviously wasn’t and now I cannot update my profile for 24 hours. This is really stupid because I’ve seen people actually have explicit sexual photos up and they have not been moderated or taken down. I even tried to put up a different pick with a picture of me and I cat with me and a short sleeve oversized shirt, and guess what I was moderated again for the thing. Then I just decided to keep the pictures and just put up my told me to use but then they said that I wasn’t using the buttons they told me to use and I have been for supposedly not doing something I was supposed to do even though I had done it. If it doesn’t change, I will be using a different app from here on out and I that other people will to. If you want people to feel safe and comfortable using your app then maybe actually make it better instead of using bots to run your whole entire app which ruins the entire experience

The “Pro’s & Con’s” about Wizz.

dawg im telling you wizz was actually “accepting” when i first downloaded it about a year ago. but now recently it’s so stupid. it asks me to put a picture of myself, so that exactly what i do. im trying to follow the rules, but this app is making it harder than it has to be. and don’t get me wrong, but wizz is honestly an incredible app which you can make a ton of friends on. it’s an app where you can express yourself on. it’s not even just an app, it’s a whole experience. come on, wizz. can’t this just be a bit more accepting of people? im trying my hardest to make a simple account, so i can have people to talk to finally. but your whole “rejected content” thing is really getting on my nerves. im putting pictures of myself, and i’m not the best looking person, so you should have no trouble asking why that is. there shouldn’t be a whole “You’ve been moderated to many times” thing. it’s honestly so stupid. i know that it could be potentially dangerous on this app, but seriously? what if people aren’t comfortable with showing their faces? what if people don’t like the way they look? be more accepting, wizz. think about the people and why they downloaded this app. i downloaded this app for a reason, and that reason is so i can actually make some friends and have someone to talk to. get your problems together man. seriously.

1 year ago, wizz is garbage

Y’all literally can’t run a app for your life.

first of all i’m tired of my posts getting taken down cus it’s seen as inappropriate. that didn’t happen until i made a new account so i know wizz is just being dumb. stop being such snowflakes about small things i was fully clothed and all i just think it’d be better if you put more effort into getting the violations correct. On top of that when you ban someone it’s typically common knowledge TO LET THEM KNOW WHY AND FOR HOW LONG. cannot stress enough how many times i’ve been banned for a small cuss word and don’t figure out until i can’t see any online status’ or get any messages. it’s bogus. don’t think i didn’t notice how hard you guys are trying to add another section to wizz. first it was the wannabe tik tok side that you took down after seeing how dumb it was. now it’s the pops which are completely pointless. just leave it how it is there’s no reason to fix these. instead focus on the dumb issues you guys STILL HAVENT fixed that i listed. there’s a lot that could make the app better but jesus… get it under control this is embarrassing might just go to yubo again cus they at least know how to run an app…. lastly, PLEASE fix this whole automated filter to see if ur post isn’t allowed because i’ve had the dumbest stuff taken down due to your laziness. if you want a successful app do more.

Face ID and Moderating

I like this game a lot it’s a good way to make friends. I think my only issues are with the verification and the moderating. For one, the face verification thing took me forever. For people who don’t have the app, to verify that the photos are actually you, you can take a selfie and the AI matches it to your picture. Mine would not work at all. The requirements were to have glasses on if I wore them, take off any hats, and to have good lighting. Even if my selfies were basically the exact same picture, I still wasn’t verified. Took me 30 minutes. My second thing is with the moderation. I’ve been blocked from posting quite a few times and I read the guidelines and each time I tried to keep my posts within the guidelines. But every time I would get blocked from posting because my post “violated the guidelines”. But then I scroll through some peoples profiles and they have basically the same things I did, yet their posts weren’t removed or reported? I hope it’s a weird glitch, because nothing I’ve said even remotely breaks the guidelines. Overall the app is great these two things just frustrate me quite a bit.

Restrictions and app

The app was lowkey fun to use, had some cool people to talk to and wtv but now you get your account restricted much easier. Like you try and ask for someone’s snap and it doesn’t send and gives you like a warning saying that it’s against the guidelines. It’s so strict you can’t even ask for their social and have to spell it out everytime. Some of the chats don’t even send. Like you ask what are you doing and they say what they are doing but you don’t see it because of the restrictions. Before the app was great because it didn’t have many ads and the restrictions were low. There are less ads now which is better but the restrictions are too high. The app would be better if they are lower. People just have to know who they want to or don’t want to talk with. They have to make that choice not the app. Something as simple as in texting my friends on Snapchat could get your account restricted. Other than your account getting restricted in less than a day the app is great. Really cool people to talk to, made good friends from this app, and it’s just been a good app to pass the time. Just lower the restrictions and it will be better.

I GOT BANNED FOR NO REASON. I DON’T RECOMMEND THIS APP.

This app at one point honestly had some good potential but it's slowly spiraled down into another washed up cash grab Tinder reject for teens. The earlier version of this app was the best tbh, was the most engaging and was unique in every way possible. Nowadays it's just copying every other app like this to find new friends. Also adding secret chats defeats the entire purpose of reconstructing the layout to make it so people HAVE to message you to be friends. How am I supposed to make new friends when 75% of all my chat requests are blurred? Most people aren't willing to drop actual money on here and watching 30 second ads every time is mind-numbing. I understand as app developers you have to make some form of money to support the app but there honestly has to be a better way that doesn't directly interfere with the whole purpose of the app. Overall, the blatant "we want money" features of the app make it hard to enjoy, the newer layout ruins the uniqueness the app had in the first place when I got it two years ago. Before I met so many people and it was so fun but now you have to pay for literally EVERYTHING it’s horrible. I just want to meet new people and find new friends and I cent even do that bc I can’t talk to any of them and it also dosent even push your account most of the time out to people unless you pay for the account bost.

INFORMATION STOLEN / MODERATION

This apps moderation is horrible, just because you say “snap” or “insta”, ones account gets restricted & you can’t message anyone anymore until it’s lifted. Not only is the restriction unfair, but when one attempts to contact customer service for an appeal, theyre met with a bot numerous times which is very misleading as the app states in settings “Message us” or that “Someone from our team will review your appeal” but then oddly enough, you get a message back from only bots. Now, let’s talk about the exposed privacy involved in this app, the app is basically taking your data & information and even stores it after you delete your account, the app never states this before you sign up, but if you look into settings as well & you have to fill this large form out before you can get your data removed which I found incredibly odd, and even after that it says that you will receive a message that will confirm your data being removed, but i did that and they never ended up sending it? I’m not sure this is just weird especially considering the fact this is an app aimed towards vulnerable teens.

Customer Service

(UPDATE) I don’t know if I’ve just been annoying or not but since I got back from Nigeria I have been trying to contact customer support to help me with my issue but they seem inactive and unresponsive as well as seemingly always taking days for them to be active then them not being active at all on the weekends just to be directed to a support bot on the weekday again that can’t help anyone with their needs. (UPDATED REVIEW) So I’ve contacted the team on instagram and I’ve repeatedly followed up via email and the developer website but no one is trying to be involved or seemingly are willing to help for they immediately say they will come back the next day and never do and not only that but no one from the team or the moderation/management branch has even received or reached out to me about my concern and this customer support system fully observed by ai services is a complete bust because nothing gets processed or fully put through and the only good app that you can interact with people securely has no base system let alone a ticketing ministrations so someone may at least open a support ticket of some sort where staff can actually directly see and engage with the community or the percent of those that actually need assistance

Add more to it!

Hey I really love this app and I kinda use it constantly but you could definitely add some more to it. First thing is, you can add more communities for different games, sports or artists. Second thing is, I feel like you shouldn't have to pay money to add more pics on your story. For an app to just talk to people and not have anything serious, it shouldn't be 80 dollars a year (20$ 3-monthly), 365 dollars a year (7$ weekly) or 120 dollars a year (10$ monthly). Lastly, this app is kinda too strict. I posted something on my story that says don't send me any nudes and it will give you a cool down when you can edit it. I had to wait a whole day to edit it again just because I didn't want someone sending me nudes. I know you have robots to view everyone's story and if they see that word, they will give you a cool down but still, it shouldn't be for that long. They also wouldn't let me have someone else look over it to make sure I didn't post something inappropriate. If anything, those robots should check over the teenage girls that are wearing nothing but a bikini saying they are freaky but that might just be me. Thank you!

acting weird

I’ve downloaded Wizz about 3 times now, I’ve gotten bored of the app and deleted the app then redownloaded it. Nothing wrong with the app the first 2 times. This time when I was signing in to verify my age(with the camera), it kept saying error till it had to be manually checked by a worker. I had good lighting and everything so I found it strange but went along with making my profile. I tried putting up a photo with a bio for my profile but apparently it was inappropriate and violated community guidelines, I personally didn’t find anything that violated them however. I tried a different bio and again, violated community guidelines and I couldn’t moderate it for the next 5 minutes. There was an option for it to be checked by a worker to make sure it actually violated the guidelines, and I might get banned if it was inappropriate. 5 minutes passed and I tried changing it one more time with a different picture and different bio. It said I violated the community guidelines once again, but instead of waiting for 5 minutes, I have to wait 59. I’m not sure if these are just some glitches but I’m not very happy about this, I was just trying to set up my profile and now I might get banned?

really !

writing this review and im going to also take this to tik tok because i feel like this could be a good story time this app is a joke first lets start off with the harassment of women so I was talking to this guy everything seemed good at first until he started getting a little creepy mind you I was a verified account and it doesn't take that much for me to snap. We were starting to get to know each other and it comes to find out he doesn't really like women with personal views even been verified and having multiple pictures up he requested more pictures. I politely said no thousands of times, and he basically told me how inconsiderate I was how I should do this as a favor for him because his past with catfishes even though I do understand where he was coming from the way, I was harassed just to get pictures, and it wasn't until I finally snapped as anyone would have been constantly harassed, even after saying no multiple times that I was considered rude then he reported me I really enjoyed this app because I was able to interact with multiple people since I'm very antisocial, and I really don't have any friends outside of social media he basically ruined any chances of me being social and this app didn't do a good job at supporting me if you don't want to be harassed as a women this app isn't for you ❤️

I keep getting moderated for no reason.

Every time I try to make my profile or whatever it says rejected content and it’s telling me “don’t post pictures of yourself or others that are sexually suggestive or explicit. Keep your clothes on to avoid being moderated.” but my picture is a sky. I put that as my picture I only put a picture of the sky and I wrote a lot down on this profile or whatever this is and I wrote that I love fall and stuff and just things about me I put that song down in the background is a picture of the sky I wish I could put pictures on here but I can’t so I can’t show anyone how dumb this is please Wizz what am I doing wrong? I restarted this 3 times. it’s really getting annoying. background for absolutely no reason or just don’t post anything at all.(update) it was saying I couldn’t update my profile for. Minutes like four minutes now it’s telling me I can’t update it for 50 because I’ve been moderated too many times. Just a great, I just feel like wizz isn’t doing anything about this because I literally did not do anything wrong and it’s unfair that they’re not letting me update my profile for zero reason, I’ve been working pretty hard on mine like three times and it’s getting so irritating . I’m about to delete this app you know what I might as well.

Some old things need to be back !!!

Okay so don't get me wrong, this app is really good! I've met like LOTS of chill people on there. A few things though that could be changed or old things that could be back, would be: We should be able to ask people for their other socials without the message not going through. Yeah, I get it's for safety but we already have a sticker thingy to add our socials, so someone asking for it in the messages shouldn't be getting blocked. Two things from the past that could be brought back would be when we get to the 7th day of rewards, we should get a boost instead of a bulk !! I know a lot of users on wizz miss that and I do too. The last thing is we should bring back 30 minutes boosts!! While the boosts we have now give us more people to talk to, they're shorter and usually the people that text me are bulk messages and it's annoying. I think that the 30 minute boosts were really amazing and more people were ACTUALLY texting us and not some random using a bulk message and then not replying to me😭😭I mean overall though, this app is pretty good and most of the updates are nice :)

Banned for no reason

I had been using the app for about 3 years and everything was going perfectly fine until recently I was making a new account and it asked me to verify my age with a picture as usual. Now my room was dark and I really didn’t feel like getting up so instead of Turing on a light or going to a well lit area, I just turned on my iPad to its brightest setting and hoped all would go well. The app started freaking out and kept kicking me out and restarting and I was extremely confused but decided to keep trying. After a few it took me back to the log in account and as I tried to continue my new account the app said that I had been banned. I had never been banned before or even gotten a warning so I was extremely confused and hoped it was just a bug. It was in fact not. It’s been about 3 or so months since this and I have tried reaching out to the app and nothing has seemed to work. I have no idea what to do and I’m mainly making this review so I can get some possible assistance and possibly unbanned.

This app is annoying

I honestly hate that when I put a picture on my profile they say that there is something wrong with it or it goes against their guidelines and then on top of that makes me wait almost an hour just to edit my profile when the picture has no inappropriate content once so ever and in the picture I’m fully dressed covered from head to toe. I also hate that if I get a secret message from someone it’s either I pay for the gold pass or I watch this video add for a few seconds and after I watch the whole ad the message is still locked. If you don’t have gold then u shouldn’t be able to receive the secret messages. I tried to delete my account to make a new one and as soon as I got to the page where u make a name it says I have to wait 36 mins to update my profile when I don’t have a profile and I’m making a new account I even deleted the app and tried to do it again and yet still saying the same thing over a picture that I requested to get reviewed since it was not up to the guidelines and didn’t receive an answer back all I get is the same picture I put on my profile but they deleted everything off the picture so I have to keep putting the things I had on there back just for them to keep doing it again worst apppp everrrrrrrr

Banned accounts

I have had to make multiple accounts that only last a few hours before I get banned/restricted for doing virtually nothing I have normal conversations use normal pics for my accounts yet still end up getting banned for no reason it's not a bad app and l've meet some chill people they just need to do something abt this maybe loosen up on the rules a little but because it seems like they ban me for doing nothing I don't know if they ban someone for spamming which if so that's ridiculous and you should just make it so people can't send messages after so many and they have to wait a while and have actual moderators not an Al because it's not gonna know what's what and make mistakes it should be more of a if system detects a problem moderators look it over before just banning accounts they can look it over and then make a full decision because it reduces problems and would make the app work a lot better. Ill keep using the app it's not bad I just need this problem to be fixed because it's frustrating trying to make friends and have my account be shadow banned just because a system detects what it thinks does against community guidelines and then bans someone when in reality it didn't and you're stuck basically not being able to use the app for a few days to weeks

Wizz

i love it this app soo much but i wish you don’t have to pay for any type gold or watch any type ads just to text a person in my opinion i just wish we all could just text like normal people should do n nobody on this app should pay just to talk to people and i been seeing people saying they don’t want to pay for adds and golds and stuff bec it’s just a waste a money and i understand that you guys need to do what’s best for your app like i completely get it you guys need get to the money and stay healthy and long term goal with this app but i just wish that it could be a little different that's all and lowkey i wish you could go back on someone story instead of literally paying gold to just go back and look that’s all and i just wanted to tell you guys i just wanted to get that out of my head and my chest to be honest but the end of the day this is a really good app just to text people and i just want to make a difference for me and other people who’s out there using this app and for sure if you guys don’t i completely understand for sure.

This app is so fun to meet new people but its a lil too strict, we should be allowed to have what we want on our acc and if people don’t like it they can swipe. I cant even put up an innocent picture because the top of my chest is showing and i mean like my collarbone. I dont mean we should let people have explicit pictures but if a picture violates guildlines to have someone check if cause the system is not always right. One time i was trying to put a song artist called SoftWilly on my acc and immediately got restricted and it said “Fav artist : SoftWilly😍” I understand that might trigger the system but its humans on wizz not bots so anyone would be able to understand that. They also restricted my account without even telling me, then when I requested a manual review i still haven’t been reviewed and I personally think there is nothing on my acc that could trigger it i have spent money on this app and its not worth it being restricted. Other than those complaints there is nothing bad about the app its easy to block people without consequences so its easy to stay safe and the people are kind. Its just the app feels like roblox, and i say this because messages get censored too.

In need of help.

I used to get well over 15+ requests initially but after I tried to upload a new bio with a picture without my glasses I was told to wait 24 hours because I needed to be verified to see if it was me. (Which is questionable).After the 24 hours, I stopped getting requests. I thought it it was a personal issue with my appearance or something, but then I tried to message new people but then I found out that NONE of my messages were going through to anyone. It’s been close to a month and nothing.I also completely wasted my time watching adds for coins to purchase a boost, when I used it literally nothing came up. I’ve deleted the app like 6 times and made new accounts. It’s honestly getting irritating because I’ve contacted 2-3 times and I keep getting the same AI generated response telling me my issue occurs because I'm restricted. But when I click the restricted button in settings it says that I’m not. I looked this up on Reddit and a handful of people claimed to have had this issue and said it was something called a shadow ban. Nothing about this was brought to my attention while setting up my account, if I had knew I wouldn’t have tried to put up the picture.. I honestly need help and if you work with Wizz and see this please help me out. Thank you.

Wrongfully Banned

Apparently, I was banned?? I mean my messaging privileges were taken away. Although, I, myself, didn’t do anything? People kept reporting me because I wouldn’t want to do disgusting things with them- and one had even gotten into my account somehow? They had posted a picture to my profile of a rando who was nude, but it was also completely censored..? 🤨 They’d even gone on to harass multiple people through my account. I’ve even tried to make a new account, but it still won’t let me message anyone D:. That’s not even what I’m most upset about- I’m more irritated over the fact I was banned over an entirely censored picture, but people who have literally been known to attempt to blackmail, harass, and practically stalk others are yet to be banned?? For god’s sake I see people just straight out saying that they’re TWENTY YEARS OLD WITH THEIR AGE SET SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 14-16!! And they’re entirely aware of what they’re doing!! They literally say that they “like younger girls” and I still see that their accounts continue to be active?? They've even gotten in contact with a multitude of my friends! I find this incredibly bizarre and just unfair in it’s entirety. I hope that the app is soon to be rid of these sickos and that I get my account back.

I hate the account reviews

I get making sure that ppl aren’t posting gross things or dangerous things but I’m soooo done at this point ☹️ I had a pic already up and just added 2 things. ‘Nfs’ and ‘I like most music except country or heavy metal but I’ll listen to it if you like it :)’ and it got taken down. I can’t remember all the other things I had. If you take it down that’s one thing. I can dispute it and try again. But you take EVERYTHING off. I like to take my time building them up so it just ruins my entire page. If you guys are going to have such a faulty review system (cause I’ve seen some questionable accounts) then you should at least go back to the previous save. So it’s not just completely wiping it. I wouldn’t have reviewed but this also happened to a new picture I was adding. I just said that I wanted new friends and someone to buy me food and it got taken down??? And it said I had weapons in the background. It didn’t even take down the photo just erased all the words which doesn’t make sense. Shouldn’t it just have up pic a new picture at the very least? Wouldn’t that make more sense? To leave the words but add a new picture? Sorry for the rant but this is annoying and needs to be fixed.

Don’t download this app

For starters, I wasn’t even able to put my own name down when making my account, it kept telling me my name was inappropriate. It’s literally just my name, a super common one that isn’t inappropriate in the slightest. I had to come up with some other random name to use since that was “inappropriate.” Then on multiple occasions it told me I needed to select a different picture because it thought I was someone else??? It kept saying “are you sure this is you?” Like yes?? Bruh it’s my face 😭 then I’ve gotten shadow banned multiple times. There is a section to check if your account is restricted and it would say it was not, I wasn’t banned, I could view accounts and send requests but ALL my current chats disappeared and for 3 days I didn’t get one single request. (Mind you every other time I’ve used this app I get tons of requests) I send a message to support telling them about this issue and I get a message saying they will respond “tomorrow.” Then the next day arrives and no response. I check again and it says “see you Monday” like are you kidding me?? I’m prevented from using my own name and picture, and I get shadow banned without an explanation and then support just ignores me when I ask for help? I’m done with this app, it’s ridiculous at this point.

Fix These Issues

This app at one point honestly had some good potential but it’s slowly spiraled down into another washed up cash grab Tinder reject for teens. The earlier version of this app was the best tbh, was the most engaging and was unique in every way possible. Nowadays it’s just copying every other app like this to find new friends. Also adding secret chats defeats the entire purpose of reconstructing the layout to make it so people HAVE to message you to be friends. How am I supposed to make new friends when 75% of all my chat requests are blurred? Most people aren’t willing to drop actual money on here and watching 30 second ads every time is mind-numbing. I understand as app developers you have to make some form of money to support the app but there honestly has to be a better way that doesn’t directly interfere with the whole purpose of the app. Overall, the blatant “we want money” features of the app make it hard to enjoy, the newer layout ruins the uniqueness it once had and the support or actual interest in what the people who download the app have to say is lacking. I’ll give 2 stars only because this app was once actually good. Sad to see it take the same direction as all the others.

Got banned and can’t make another account

Okay so let me explain this. I got temporary banned. Could still dm people and everything. Things started changing tho when I tried describing MYSELF better and not letting my account seem “dry looking” and have more describing stuff about myself and I did what every single person has done on that app prolly ever since it released I did my status, socials, my profile picture which was normally my face I’m to insecure bout my full body to do that and my hobby’s and that I could beat them in a singing contest with this emoji😎 and I got against community guidelines so I did it without the I can beat you against singing contest and just did hobby’s, status, socials, likes that’s it against community guidelines and then I just did my face with a filter on it and the filter was a bunch of smily faces and it was against the community guidelines so I did a clear no filter face picture that’s it no captions and against community guidelines. I even deleted the app and reinstalled and it didn’t work. This app is so sensitive and so are like half the people on it just an fyi. And you don’t get swipes/requested messages unless your on the app it should be able to be off and on the app. Fix your app Wizz or it’s not even worth downloading

Paying money for freinds just go pay a random person off the streets

And honestly if I want to pay for an app to make friends, I would literally be better off paying people to be my friend and actually knowing that they’re fake because this is bull crap you got me paying money to see messages without having to watch a video you got me paying money to be able to post videos like you just your money hungry and I don’t know what else to say I hate the fact that you have to be a gold member to post videos when people don’t usually take pictures they usually like take a video nowadays, but you have to be a gold member to post videos so now it forces you to take pictures then they have some type of sexual hotline about a girl posting a mirror picture with a crop top on and some like shorts or pants but a guy can post a mirror picture with their shirt off and just a hat and a pair of jeans on with their boxer line, showing this is sexually like offensive and not only that it’s like you have to pay for so much stuff on this app but like you do make a lot of friends in connection with a lot of great people but you have to pay for so much stuff on this app. It’s Horrible.

FIX THIS APP WIZZ😭

I’ve had this app for a while now, with no problems or issues now. It’s the app says 12+ so why is it changing and no I’m not 12 I’m 18. Just turned 18 actually and recently this app had been acting weird and idk if it’s form the updates or what but I tried to make a new acc after having the app deleted for over a year. So I decided to try to get back on it and I sign in with my Apple ide and stuff and then as soon as it gets to the “Add a photo” part. I put my REAL photos with my FULL FACE on there and for some reason it won’t let me put them. Like it keeps saying “put your full face, no other objects” like what is that supposed to mean? I think the updates are becoming a little too extreme and I want the old wizz back and I want it to be fixed so if you see this please make a different update to this app because I love it honestly and I can’t even get on 😭👎🏼 that’s disappointing and I’m hearing people say it works completely fine for them JUST FIX IT PLEASE !! thank you mwah! 🤍

I got restricted…

Wizz, I’ll be honest. Your app is pretty cool. I downloaded it roughly a week ago and haven’t spent a day where I’m not on it. When I received the bulk message reward from the daily rewards, I wanted to send out a fun and quirky message that read “text me back or else 🔫🥰” which in retrospect I realize now could be consumed as a threat. The next morning I woke up and all of my chats had a message at the top that said I’ve violated the guidelines of Wizz with no real explanation. I’m not even sure if that is the reason my account got restricted but it’s the only thing that occurred before I learned of my restriction. I did not intend that message as a threat to anyone. It was merely a playful mixture of words and emojis, with the hopes of drawing attention to produce responses. So with this 5-star review, I do hope that you’ll consider un-restricting my account so that I could continue to use the app freely and enjoy my time there. I intend to stay within the guidelines moving forward. Thank you for reading ❤️

It is what it is

Idk what you guys are complaining about, it’s not really the app’s fault but it’s the people on the app, people say oh I sent a bulk chat and no one responded or I sent a super message and they didn’t respond, but in reality people just think it’s lame to send those so they don’t answer. Honestly it had become more tinder like but just ignore the people who are on here for that reason. Besides it’s not really the app’s fault it’s the teens that use it like it’s tinder. And technical difficulties will come no matter what cuz it happens to all apps so just write up to the app explaining your situation if there is any technical problems. It’s really not that hard. Honestly you can really easily find people to talk to if you are bored and if you don’t feel them anymore you can just delete chat. Idk how easier it can be. If you treat the app simply then you will be able to get more out of it, but if you try going against the flow then you will definitely struggle more. It’s honestly that simple

It’s a great app but idk why I’ve been restricted

I’ve had this app for a while now and I love it it’s great for when you’re bored and wanna meet new people I’ve always went with the community guidelines I thought then I open the app and it says “ Some of your previous messages have breached our community guidelines. Stay compliant to avoid account restriction.” This is my first offense but none of my messages are being sent so I guess I’m already restricted I have premium and everything so I thought I was being good on the app I’ve never said anything mean (that I know of) to anyone or post nudity and they don’t really give a very good explanation I’ve appealed but haven’t gotten anything. But here’s some goods cause I really do like this app I love how you can meet people in different countries and talk to them and grow your snap map and it’s great for finding people close I’ve hung out w some people and even met someone new to my school on there and we’ve became great friends I really enjoy this app when I have 15-20 minutes of nothing to do other than the restriction system it’s a great app

It’s honestly really bad.

This app used to be one of my favorite apps. However, at the same time.. one of my least favorite apps and the only reason I continued to come back to it was because I simply got bored so I mainly used the app for that reason and wanted attention from other people. It’s really hard to find people you genuinely click with.. at least for me. Most people on the app either just wanted inappropriate photos, to hookup, or just dirty talk through the phone and after awhile I would get sick of it and delete the app but I always came back. Despite all of this I became obsessed with the app. After some time of deleting and re-downloading the app repeatedly it started acting weird. I got banned for something reasonable and after a day or two I was able to have my messages finally go through and be received to people. Time passed and it was like anything I said or posted on my profile got me banned. It started to get very frustrating and now it’s happened again. Funny how all the sudden they make us pay money while the app slowly gets worse and worse. I suggest you don’t get this app. It’s a waste of time.

Dumb Idea. Not safe.

It’s fr like they thought “hmm making an app where kids can talk to each other with minimal moderation, pictures of each other, and locations definitely won’t cause pedophiles to gravitate there! It’ll be fine 🤪!” First of all you definitely knew the moment you launched this “friends making” app for teens would be a dating app for them. You literally have a “Rate Me” group. But the biggest disappointment is that you did this knowing adults can simply download the app and lie about their age. I’m generally not one to complain about teens talking to friends online. I do it myself. But I’m writing this review after the 5th time I’ve been hit up by a grown man asking for nudes and if the moderation actually existed this wouldn’t be such a reoccurring issue. Yes, you ban people upon them being reported. But from all the second accounts I’ve seen in this app it’s clearly very possible to just make a new account and do it all over again.

Too strict.

If you look in the guideline section on the settings, it mentions that no discrimination of any kind is tolerated(racism, hom*ophobia, sexism, etc). However, when editing my pictures I put the LGTBGIA+ community thing on there and a text saying what pronouns I went by and what my sexuality was. Information that people typically need to know. I also put my Snapchat on there as I had recently scrolled past a girl my age who has their Snapchat info on their profile. When I was finished editing my profile however, it claimed that I was discriminating and going against guidelines. Whatever, so I adjusted it and just put my snap, a song, and the LGTBQIA+ community thing and it still told me I was discriminating. Now I am temporarily banned from adjusting my profile for the 2nd time just for saying that I am Bisexual, use She/They pronouns, and using the LGTBQIA+ community icon. I’m not saying they are hom*ophobic or anything, however temporarily banning me from editing my profile just for putting NEEDED information on my picture and claiming that I was discriminating whatever they thought I was, it’s ridiculous!!

banned for changing profile picture

the app is cool and all for making new friends or wtv. but i keep having this reoccurring problem where whenever i try to change my picture or the music in the picture i get banned for editing my profile for “nude or sexual solicitation” i’ve never asked anyone to send, and in the picture is just a picture of me (no body parts like cleavage or wtv hanging out i’m a guy) so i don’t understand why i get banned for 24 hours every single time i try and edit my profile. makes me want to delete either my account or the app. i tried making a new account only to be banned instantly for my name? my name is my real name on the app, so i don’t understand why i’m getting banned for a day instantly for just making the account. ps. the community has been fine for me, ive only gotten compliments and have only been “harassed” like twice maybe and i’ve had the app for over a month now ANYWAYS, please fix ur app there are MANY problems with it, and maybe make it so i can actually get unbanned but a real person than just one of ur help bots, because they won’t answer any questions i have pls and ty

Mediocre at best.

A few years I had this app and it was amazing. You could make a random conversation and people who were genuinely interested could click and chat. Now it’s just a teen tinder, which I’m aware is not completely the developers fault however the layout was obviously meant to give some hints at that. I understand the ads are needed to keep the app open and they usually aren’t a problem. The only time ads are annoying is when I have to watch them to answer a swipe that someone else sent me. It would be great if the group chat feature was added back on and also if there was a search bar to find friends. Another thing that would make the app much better is letting people make an actual bio. Not just posting a picture and putting captions in it. That really limits people to what they wanna say. I’m sure that feature was added as a safety expansion but it’s extremely inconvenient. Other than all of that the app is pretty okay. It’s nothing special but it’s one of the better apps to make online friends all things considered.

Not the same

I used to use wizz a lot and i started using it back in 2020 so I’ve seen it go through some pretty interesting changes. The most recent update is really bad in my opinion. I think i know what the app was trying to do which I’m assuming is to help motivate people to talk to each other more on the app which is why the only way to make someone ur “friend” is if you actually talk to them. although this isnt actually a horrible idea I think what the app forgets is that (especially since it’s marketed to a younger audience) people don’t like to talk😂at least before the update i was able swipe and have the option to test my confidence to see if i was going to text first but now YOU HAVE TO in order to friend that person and keep talking to them. it just takes away the option in my opinion. i used to have a bunch of people try and make friends with me and now absolutely no one is talking to me and i think it’s bcuz it’s way too direct. There was nothing wrong with the swipe left swipe right concept and even before that there was nothing wrong with the message bored where people can respond to your message (iykyk) but anyways the app is dead i don’t recommend.
