Kickstarter App Reviews

Cant find the estimated delivery date on projects I have backed. It shouldnt be that difficult to find and Im pretty sure its nowhere in the new version of the app. Still have to use the website so whats the point?

I am new to this crowdfunding thing, but I believe this is the perfect idea for anyone attempting to start something without the funds. Its more like an investors place where people invest in you or your product. The best of both worlds.

Easy to navigate, much improved over the last app

You can find great items on here that are new and unique and are completely usable and things that will make peoples lives easier!

The app is convenient and good for reviewing projects in progress. You can easily look at updates, add comments, review campaign details, check the creators past projects, and update your pledge. My biggest complaint comes from projects that are completed. To me, the most important piece of information on a completed project is the estimated fulfillment date. For some reason, this is not available on the app. When the project is live, its there, but once funded, it disappears. If they fix this, I will rate it higher.

This is a very good app. But I wish that it would learn a bit from me about what Im likely to do when I open the app! 1. First of all, I want to know the current status of projects that I backed as they inch toward their deadlines! I check this at least daily, & its the first (sometimes only) thing Im opening the app to do. I wish that the app noticed this & would take me immediately to those projects, listed in the order of soonest closing date. Specifically, I want to see at a glance how much has been pledged, how many backers are on board, & how many days are left in the campaign. When I have projects that are trying to get funded, I care more about these things than about the universe of new projects being offered --- and much, much more than I care about my projects that have met/exceeded their amounts &/or passed their deadlines. 2. If I have no projects currently trying to reach their goals, then I wish that the app would take me to current asks in the categories for which Ive shown the most interest when using this app. Im never going to be interested the gaming category, for instance, but I am very interested in food-related projects, events, and cool devices for everyday use at home or in the office. So please take me to those offerings first when I dont have any open projects that are trying to meet their goals. And please show me projects in those categories when I go looking for new projects to back. Please also order the current projects that the Kickstarter team loves according to my project-type preferences.

The app works and its convenient for shopping.

Not an improvement over web interface. Kickstarter profits from scams and fraud projects.

Good for what its for. Im up to date with projects I back, either though notifications or it appears on the front page when I open up the app. The layout clean and manageable to navigate through.

Nothing was better than getting that update about KDM, clicking over, and losing myself in pure fantasy. Now I can only chase the dragon, and this app is my hot spoon.

This app allows me to keep up on the projects I support and learn about new projects.

This is %100 an amazing app I used it to purchase the Nolo Vr head seat (which I totally recommend) and my card was totally secure the whole time!

Love looking through all the cool ideas people have!

Kickstarter is abusing its position and helps every fraud committed on their platform by not doing anything about it! They participate in sharing stolen funds while intentionally refusing to protect their users scammed through their website! Do NOT HELP THEM SCAM MORE PEOPLE, DONT USE KICKSTARTER!

I have backed multiple products and have lost money when the developers turn and run with my money or the product received is beta garbage. Kickstarter does not protect its customers and they keep their cut on scam projects. Warning to all to avoid...

These people assisted one of the biggest scams. The project Znaps raised over 2million, and promised pledge delivery November 2015. One year later, still no rewards, no refunds, and they are helping them get away with it. They updated their app so you cant see the creator activities, and cant contact them anymore. Kickstarter doesnt care about the people being screwed over, they got their money. Im betting this review will be rejected, but if not, BEWARE OF KICKSTARTER!! THEY HELP SCAM ARTISTS GET AWAY WITH THEFT.

Kickstarter is okay with projects that steal backers money. A project was funded with $3 million and the project owners took the money and ran. All backers never received the product. Look up the project ZNAPS and see what I mean.

Im a so-called "super backer"—more than 100 projects backed. The vast majority have come through pretty much as described (if usually late). The app works very well for learning about and backing projects. If youre looking for an online shopping experience, this isnt it. Try the Amazon.com app. If you want access to innovative ideas from people learning how to make them happen as they go, this is the place. Kickstarter isnt perfect, but it IS pretty awesome.

Most of the projects are just pipe dreams. Fake items to lure you in taking your money. Kickstarter gets a cut and hide behind the policy "you did not buy a product.. You invested in an idea" stay away from king of scams

I love that the Kickstarter app is for iPhone and iPad. Its easy to browse and find newly launched campaigns.
