User reviews

Users praise Naver for its comprehensive features, quality maps, and helpful UI, especially for those comfortable with Korean. However, many international users face challenges such as mandatory Korean phone number verification, inadequate English language support, ineffective customer service, and account login or sign-up problems. Foreign users often find it difficult to navigate the app, search for locations, or resolve issues, limiting usability outside Korea.

Pros

Comprehensive and useful features combining multiple services in one app.
High quality map guidelines and real-time subway/bus information within Korea.
Includes translation features within the app to assist with Korean content.
Good user interface design with ease of use for those familiar with Korean.
Strong presence as a Korean search engine with extensive local information.

Cons

Difficulties and restrictions in account creation and login for foreigners, especially due to Korean phone number verification requirements.
Lack of English language support or poor accessibility for non-Korean speakers.
Unresponsive or unhelpful customer service, especially regarding verification and login issues.
Issues with signing up, receiving verification codes, and account recovery are common complaints.
Search function and map results poorly optimized for English users, making it hard for foreigners to find locations.

Lately the app just showed popup that I'm under 14, which I don't know why and how to solve it. It requires me to give consent (by adding Korean number!) to submit verification request, which is non-sense because I'm foreigner. Now my already-verified account is unaccessible: no way to request as no Korean number, no way to edit my birthdate (I'm over 40!), and I have some money left in Naver Pay. No one to contact with. Disappointing!

Wow what a waste of time. Don't waste your time on this app if you don't have korea phone number. It's a huge waste of time. Even after filling everything. They will still required you to use your phone number which is dumb. If you want us to pay we could always pay more using google play or paypal. Idk why devs wasted their time creating thing garbage.
